Ok guys, as promised here's one of the blogposts, take a look at it and hit me with all you got
What Happens If You Eat Weed
The phrase “eating weed” conjures up the image of a goat chowing down of some fresh marijuana buds. But that is not all it means, you can either chew some fresh green nugs (highly unlikely) or infuse your meals and baked goodies with some THC loaded herb or oil.
Should you choose to try out some raw weed, this is what you should know;
First, it is never going to get you high and over the moon! The psychoactive component in weed that gives the typical marijuana high (euphoria) is tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Weed in its raw form contains THCA, the acidic form of the cannabinoid. This acidic form needs to be heated up in order to breakdown into THC, through a process known as decarboxylation. So when you take raw weed, what you will be getting is THCA and not THC.
More than that, raw weed tastes awful!
On the flip side, THCA, as well as CBDA the acidic precursor of CBD, have been shown to have therapeutic properties in their own rights. So as much as you will be missing out on the high, you will still be getting some nutrients in.
Considering how repulsive the taste of raw weed is, you could try out some tastier alternatives that give a more potent buzz.
What Happens When You Eat Weed Edibles?
The most common way to have weed is by inhaling it in different ways. Alternatively, you could consume weed-infused edibles such as the popular weed cookies.
When you ingest foods containing weed, delta-9-THC is transported through the walls of your stomach, into the intestines and finds itself in the liver. In the liver, most of the Delta-9-THC is metabolized and converted into 11-OH-THC even before it has had a chance to bind onto cannabinoid receptors. This effect is known as the first pass effect. After this the remaining THC is moved into the circulation and find into the heart, brain, and other organs. Both THC and 11-OH-THC are transported to the brain simultaneously.
Because of the prolonged pathway taken when weed is ingested, it takes a longer time to get the “high”, usually about three hours. In comparison, when you inhale weed you will begin to feel the cerebral effects almost instantly. On the other hand, the effects of ingested weed will last longer.
