What Are Cannabis Edibles?
Cannabis edibles are food and beverage products infused with cannabinoids like THC or CBD. Unlike smoking or vaping, edibles are processed through your digestive system, resulting in different onset times and longer-lasting effects.
When you consume an edible, THC is metabolized by your liver into 11-hydroxy-THC, a compound that crosses the blood-brain barrier more effectively, often producing more intense effects than inhaled cannabis.
Types of Cannabis Edibles
Gummies
The most popular edible! THC gummies come in various flavors, potencies, and formulations. Easy to dose and discreet.
Chocolates
Cannabis-infused chocolate bars and truffles. Often divided into scored pieces for easy dosing. Rich, indulgent experience.
Beverages
THC-infused drinks including sodas, teas, and seltzers. Faster onset than solid edibles. Social and refreshing.
Tinctures
Liquid extracts taken sublingually or added to food. Faster absorption when held under tongue. Precise dosing with dropper.
Edibles Dosing Guide
Proper dosing is crucial for an enjoyable edible experience. Minnesota law limits individual servings to 5mg THC, making it easier to control your experience.
