I thought Deta-8, Delta-9 etc are extracted from weed, real and not synthetic?
Both forms of gummies are awesome for sleep... I dont take them during the day, so unsure on actual potency.
Sleep thru the buzz...
You are correct Delta 9 is actually the real deal that is what is responsible for the high in actual Marijuana. They get around the legality because they can extract it from hemp and delta 9 thc under .03% is legal if extracted from hemp so basically it is concentrated hemp Delta 9 they add to gummies. Delta 8 is also in hemp and the typical cannabinoid sold in most vape shops. Hoevere they also have thc-p, Delta 10, THC-a, etc etc these cannabinoids are in hemp at low concentrations but they can concentrate them in an extract. Other things like HHHC are only created after processing which makes them considered synthetic and not technically legal depending on the state and interpretation of the farm bill.
Delta 8 came out first and the others followed each one promised to be better but most sales have been Delta 8 as some of the others looked better on paper. Currently THC-A is rising as the most popular variant.
I currently recommend using a THC-A, THC-P, THC-M Torch mixture as I do feel you get a more balanced fuller experience closer to flower when using a mixture of cannabinoids. A typical delta 8 is also not bad but there is variance between brands you want to use the something reputable like 3CHI if going for a delta 8. Head shops typically will have better quality brands than gas stations
Different states have gone after different cannabinoids claiming some are synthetic so you do see producers changing formulas depending on their location. But these are not real synthetics they are simply different concentrated preparations from hemp but because there is additional processing for something like HHHC they call it a synthetic.
I do feel these products help immensely with appetite digestion and metabolism. I quit using for 45 days prior to my struct curl event and struggled to keep and add weight. I showed up at 219lbs with poor appetite for my strict curl show. I purchased a vape on the way home from the contest. I was 236lbs 3 days later.
