Why Do You Want These Gummies?

The Ultimate Delta-8 Gummy Review

 

Our Final Examination of Delta-8 Gummies

We have explained in old blogs why people go for delta-8 gummies and delta-8 THC in general. But this is more of a personal review today than citing clinical trials and published studies on why you should try delta-8. As a writer at Ounce of Hope, I would like to cover my entire experience with our delta-8 THC gummies. Get a first-hand explanation of how they taste, how they'll make you feel, and more! Let's dive in.

For The First Time, Trying Delta-8 Gummies

If you are not familiar with delta-8 THC, it is a legal cannabinoid extracted from hemp. Even though it induces a high, as the THC in the name might suggest, it does not have the same intensity as delta-9 THC. Delta-9 THC is the most abundant THC in marijuana strains and at high percentages appears to cause negative symptoms in some people.

Knowing this, I did not expect the Delta-8 gummies that Collin, the proud owner of Ounce of Hope, would send me, do much for me. I have a relatively high tolerance for cannabis products, so I did not expect anything to change my life.

That's why trying Delta-8 THC through these candies was such a pleasant surprise. I felt calm, I felt “stoned” while still being able to keep track of my bearings. I didn't feel out of control, locked on the couch, or even "stoned" in the way a weed can make you feel. Instead, I still felt fully aware and in control, but also relaxed and calm; almost euphoric.

The high is familiar and welcoming. It does not control you, but you feel energized - like you can do something very productive and feel accomplished!

For stoners who like to line up before doing virtually any task (you know those - you can even be that stoner), delta-8 THC is sure to be your friend. Take less time smoking and more time going and doing with high delta-8 THC to keep you company. While candy is now my favorite option, there are also dark chocolate bars, brownie bites, and even tinctures to finish it off and make it the fastest. For those who want a taste before actually investing in a whole delta-8 product, there are dark chocolate and milk chocolate samples as well.

What Are Their Taste Preferences?

Here's the part that impressed me the most - these delta-8 gummies are delicious! I was taken aback by the sweet flavor of the chewy candy, expecting some sort of cannabis or hemp aftertaste. The bite of the earthy flavor of the bud in an edible is hard to mask, so I did not expect these little treats to be as tasty as they are.

The truth is, it is hard to eat one at a time because the flavor is so delicious. At 20 mg per gum, however, one gum is sufficient for most people. Especially if you are new to cannabis products or have never tried delta-8 before, one candy per serving is perfect.

The aftertaste is always sweet with the slightest hint of acidity, bringing out the other natural flavors the candies are made with.

Immediately After Taking A Delta-8 Gummy, This Is How I Felt.

Generally speaking, edibles are known for the time they take to work. According to the extract, some edibles require the cannabinoids they contain to pass through the liver before they can be metabolized. This helps explain why it can seem like it can sometimes take hours before an edible kick in.

It can intervene for individuals at different times depending on various factors. Personally, edibles usually do not hit me very quickly. Sometimes edibles with marijuana extracts may not even affect me - at least not noticeable.

For these delta-8 gummies, I was impressed with how quickly something could be felt. I was even patient to make sure I did not just feel a placebo. I wanted to make sure that what I was feeling was genuine and genuine, so I paid close attention to everything that happened to me.

In the first 15 minutes, I felt like the gummy could already start to take effect. It was not instantaneous, but I felt a slow, gradual relaxation wash over me.

30 Minutes After

Over the minutes, it intensified slowly, gradually, with a calming effect. I was able to complete all of my tasks for the day, always, and felt more productive as I went. I felt more able to concentrate over time.

2 Hours After

The high delta-8 THC gummies given to me were noticeable at this point. What was interesting to note was the lack of rapid heart rate. When smoking my heart can sometimes beat a little faster. If I drink coffee with my buds, I may start to sweat lightly, and this combination can even stimulate mild anxiety. With these candies, I did not feel any of this.

4 Hours After

Even 4 hours after the start of the delta-8 experiment, the thrill could still be felt. Since edibles usually do not last that long for me, I was impressed with this cannabis product. Extracted from potent hemp plants, this is a 100% legal way to benefit from THC. Yes, even in states where marijuana is not yet legal.

What Is The Legality Of Delta-8?

How Is Delta-8 Legal?

Delta-8 THC is the fourth most studied cannabinoid in our world. However, the ordinary American still knows very little about it. The compound is a type of THC naturally found in hemp and marijuana. This form of THC is getting a lot of attention - and for good reason. But how is Delta-8 legal? And is it safe to use? We want to explain everything in this guide today.

Delta 8 THC has a plethora of benefits. As a result, it is no surprise that people are adding it to their daily CBD regimen or replacing marijuana altogether. For more topics on delta 8, such as more about its huge array of benefits, be sure to take a look at our blog on the topic!

For now, let us take a look at how this fantastic version of THC is legal and how it affects you.

What Is The Legal Status Of Delta-8 THC Right Now?

The 2018 Farm Bill passed by the USDA contained a hemp bill legalizing industrial hemp. The legal definition of hemp has become any strain of cannabis containing 0.3% delta-9 THC or less.

This left some other cannabinoids in the open for extraction and consumption, like delta-8 THC and CBD.

The USDA has clarified that the legal definition of hemp includes anything that contains 0.3% delta-9 THC or less. Accordingly, delta-8 THC derived from hemp falls within these legal guidelines. It is believed that because delta-8 is found in such small amounts in cannabis strains, it was not worth mentioning.

This technically means that we can extract all the delta-8 THC we want. We extract a massive amount of hemp to achieve a viable and concentrated amount. Once extracted, we are left with a pure concentrate that gives you legal access to THC.

How Does The THC High Delta-8 Feel?

For a more detailed explanation, check out our guide on how high delta-8 THC can make you feel. For now, we will give you a quick rundown here. Now that you know that there is legal THC, you probably have more questions. How does it compare, especially to its still illegal delta-9 counterpart at the federal level?

Most of our delta-8 users are loyal customers at this point because they just love how it makes them feel. Picture this: a high without paranoia, a rapid heart rate, and the anxiety that marijuana can cause in some people. Delta-8 THC can get you high without making you feel out of control. Many of our clients use it to stay focused during their day. This helps them stay productive, energetic, and stimulated even while enjoying a light, knocked-out feeling.

How Is Delta-8 Legal?

So how is delta-8 legal? Well, the delta-8 THC products we offer are derived from hemp naturally. There are no synthetic materials, and each product is also batch tested for pesticides, metals, and other contaminants. Instead, through concentrated esoteric cannabinoids, we can condense all of the Delta 8 THC found in our hemp varieties. Condensing delta 8 into one extraction allows us to make a product that contains less than 0.3% delta 9 THC with a sufficient dose of delta 8 instead.

It is important to note here the big distinction between our products and the way some other delta-8 THC products are made. Sometimes synthetically derived, this is not an option for our brand. Especially since all THC of synthetic origin is a controlled substance, we make sure that there is nothing synthetic involved in our operation.

Is Delta-8 THC Safe To Use?

Former marijuana users report experiencing the best that Delta 9 THC has to offer, without the drawbacks, when it comes to using Delta 8. For those new to both cannabinoids, this is a euphoric experience that they always seem to enjoy. Something that helps stimulate relaxation while giving some focus is a welcome new medium for some.

Regarding its safety, it is coded as just as safe as CBD, which is said to have a high safety profile. Although it is psychoactive, it does not stimulate paranoia, anxiety, and other negative symptoms in users for whom Delta 9 is known. For those users who find they need to stop using cannabis because it is starting to cause negative side effects for them, this may be the solution you have been waiting for.

What Kind Of Delta-8 THC Products Are There?

Not all delta-8 THC products are created equal. Even though the cannabinoid is legal when properly extracted through hemp, the hemp industry as a whole still has a long way to go before it is properly regulated. In the meantime, there are plenty of brands that shorten or mislabel their products. They can switch from hemp extracts with little to no cannabinoid content as CBD or delta-8 products, leaving you with something ineffective. The massive onslaught of misinformation and mislabeled products in the hemp industry is what can make it so difficult to find a trustworthy and valuable product.

Each of our products is batch tested by a third-party lab for accuracy and safety. The amount of delta-9 THC, delta-8 THC, CBD, and all other cannabinoids is measured to make sure it has the percentages we have listed. Likewise, our products are all tested to ensure that they are free from pesticides, heavy metals, fertilizers, and any other pollutants or contaminants.

For CBD Users

If you are already incorporating CBD into your daily routine, you would do well to try our combo tincture. Our CBD + delta-8 THC tincture contains 930 mg of full-spectrum CBD and 840 mg of delta-8 per bottle, suspended in all-natural MCT oil for a pleasant flavor. For the CBD users among us, our double tincture might be the best choice for you.

Newbies

For newbies and newbies to the cannabis world, a slower, smoother approach might be preferable. Our delta-8 dark chocolate bars contain 0.73 to 0.93 mg of delta-8 THC per piece. With 15 pieces per bar, this is a more calculated and simpler method to gradually introduce you to it.

Daily Users

If you want the most precise portion for your delta-8, which works particularly well for daily or regular users, our delta-8 gummies might be the option for you. They provide 20 mg of delta-8 THC per gum; a bite-sized punch for a nice high.

Multi-Cannabinoid Enthusiasts

Okay, we know that THC and CBD are not the only cannabinoids found in cannabis plants. There are not only several versions of THC, but also minor cannabinoids, like CBC and CBG. Our delta-8 brownie bites pack a potent punch of 1.86 mg THC, 36 mg CBD, 5 mg CBC, 1.7 mg CBG and 11.5 mg delta-8 THC per bite for a beautiful entourage effect. With each additional cannabinoid, the effects of each are said to intensify.

The Products Sweeping the Nation: CBD and Delta-8 Edibles

Edibles have become a mainstay of the cannabis world, and their popularity has only grown over the years. As legal cannabis debuts in more states across the United States than ever before, the demand for delicious and legal hemp products is growing more than ever.

But what caused the change? Are people finally realizing the benefits that edibles have to offer? Let's take a look at why CBD and delta-8 edibles are spreading across the country at such a popular rate.

Why Edibles?

Of course, smoking is simple: take a few puffs, feel the highs you're looking for, and put your smoking instrument down for later. Eating something to feel its effects is a whole different ball game, but one that people turn to nonetheless. Eating forms of cannabis are becoming a trend here to stay.

But the question remains: why? Why do people want to use edibles? While smoking weed is not considered dangerous, it can do quite a bit on the lungs. It depends on the hardness of the strain and what you are using for smoking. When it comes to edibles, they're an easy way to mask the earthy, grassy taste that cannabis carries while still being roasted.

For CBD edibles, one might wonder: these do not even get you high, so what's the point? The point is all the other properties that CBD exhibits. Since it interacts with cannabinoid receptors inside our bodies, CBD appears to help with inflammation, certain types of pain, anxiety, depression, and more.

Those who take CBD edibles use them for an easier and more convenient way to get their daily cannabidiol regimen. The goal is to make it part of your daily routine so that you can gradually feel more of the positive impact from CBD over time.

What Are Edibles?

Some documents indicate that we have used marijuana in food for 1000 years BCE. As an edible, cannabis has been used for centuries in ancient China and India to treat a variety of ailments. It was only introduced to the western part of the world in the 19th century, so it makes sense that we do not know that much.

Since the 1960s, however, edibles have grown in popularity in the United States. Today, they are more popular than ever.

Edibles are recipes, foods, or drinks made from cannabis or cannabis extract. Whether it is raw cannabis with a high level of THC, hemp, CBD, or some other compound, they have all become popular for cooking.

The term "cannabis edibles" is used to describe any ingestible cannabis product that does not need to be smoked or consumed as a vapor.

Types of Edibles

There are hundreds and hundreds of different types of edible cannabis products; from recipes to drinks, to full meals, anything in between. The most common that you may be familiar with are the classic pot brownies that stoners know and love. A trope for the media these days, it is an easy way to learn about marijuana edibles.

The options do not end there, however. In the world of cannabis, and hemp, there are CBD tinctures of different flavors, as well as combo tinctures, like our CBD + delta-8 combo.

For those who like to experience the high side of life, but want to avoid delta-9 THC because it is still illegal, delta-8 THC comes in. Our delta-8 dark chocolate bars, our candies delta-8 gummies, and our delta-8 brownie bites give you the choice to find what best suits your needs.

Even our CBD brownies are a sweet treat that you will want more of.

If you are unfamiliar with edibles or want a blend to start finding what you love most, our CBD starter kit might be the best fit for you. It comes with a bottle of Melatonin + CBD Softgels for nighttime use, as well as a 500 mg full-spectrum CBD oil bottle and 3 grams of CBD hemp flower. Two edibles and flowers to try out the smoke are the perfect way to get you started on your routine.

What Is The Difference Between Delta-8 And CBD?

We offer delta-8 THC and CBD products from our wide range of hemp products. For the ordinary American, however, you may not be familiar with either of these cannabinoids. Even though they are two of the most studied cannabinoids in the world, America has remained in the dark until recently.

Now, thanks to the Farm Bill 2018, hemp and its derivatives are legal for production and consumption.

This means that CBD, a non-psychoactive cannabinoid with a plethora of beneficial properties, is completely legal as long as it is extracted from hemp grown in the United States which contains 0.3% or less of delta-9 THC.

The bill also freed up the freedom of brands to extract the tiny amount of delta-8 THC in certain varieties of hemp, sold in concentrations put in tinctures, edibles, etc.

But how exactly are the two cannabinoids different? This is what we want to cover in this guide. How is Delta-8 different from CBD? What do they share in common? Let's find out.

What Is Delta-8 THC?

It is not the most popular cannabinoid currently, but it is the fourth most important of the 100+ cannabinoids found in cannabis plants. It is considered a minor cannabinoid because it occurs in such a small percentage of any strain of cannabis, which is why the USDA did not mention it when clarifying its rules in the 2018 Farm Bill.

Delta-8 THC, according to the research available to date, appears to have many benefits. It is mildly psychoactive, but not as intensely as delta-9 THC, so it does not cause the over-stimulated negative symptoms that some people experience.

Some people do not smoke because the power of Delta-9 leaves them paranoid and anxious instead of giving them the thrill they expected. With Delta-8, the effect is much more invigorating - you can feel a sweet freshness wash over you without feeling locked in your head or on the couch.

Overall, Delta-8 has a lot to offer as a potent cannabinoid. In fact, beyond a simple cold effect, it appears to help relieve anxiety, certain types of pain, stimulate appetite, reduce or eliminate nausea, and even provide neuroprotective properties.

What Is CBD?

Cannabidiol, or CBD, is the most abundant cannabinoid in certain varieties of hemp. Non-psychoactive, it does not stimulate any sort of high like the THC strain does. However, it exerts a wide variety of properties that many consider being prominent benefits. These include anti-inflammatory, chemopreventive, and anti-anxiety effects - meaning that CBD offers many different benefits to many different people.

Since CBD became legal thanks to hemp, it has gained a lot of success in the United States. In fact, according to a Gallup poll in August 2019, more than one in 7 Americans uses CBD for a variety of reasons - a whopping 14% of the adult population already. And as of 2020, a SingleCare survey found that as many as 33% of Americans had used CBD products in the past, so it's clear to see a rapid increase.

How CBD and Delta-8 THC Differ

Because they connect to the same receptors in the brain, there is a lot in common with the two cannabinoids. They offer many similar health benefits, but they also have many big differences - the main one being, one gets you high, and the other doesn't.

Delta-8 THC is psychoactive, so it may stimulate certain “high” highs for you. CBD, on the other hand, is meant to stimulate relaxation differently - more in the same way that melatonin can help you fall asleep.

CBD doesn't induce euphoria and requires a much more consistent and robust routine before any of its benefits kick in. You can get high with delta-8 THC the first time around and feel many of its benefits along the way, but with CBD it can take four weeks or more to get incorporated into your daily routine before anything noticeable not be felt.

Which Should You Try?

It depends on your preferences. Try CBD, try Delta-8, or try a combination of the two, along with the other cannabinoids in our range, to see which one suits your preferences.

Everyone has their reasons for trying any concentrated hemp extract, so it may take time and some experimentation to find what is right for you. Try our CBD or delta-8 THC products today to see which one is your favorite!
