🌿 Why Do Some People Get Higher Than Others? The Science Explained

Cannabis affects everyone differently, and while one person might feel a light buzz, another might feel deeply intoxicated from the same amount. So, what causes these differences? The answer lies in a mix of biology, habits, and environmental factors that shape each person’s unique cannabis experience.

Read the full article on why some people get higher than others here.

🔬 How Cannabis Interacts with the Body

The key player in cannabis’ effects is THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which binds to CB1 receptors in the endocannabinoid system (ECS). This system regulates functions like mood, memory, and perception. THC mimics the natural compound anandamide, overstimulating the ECS and producing effects like euphoria, altered perception, and relaxation.

However, the way THC interacts with the ECS varies from person to person. Let’s dive into the factors that explain these differences.

🧬 Key Factors That Influence Cannabis Effects

1. Genetics

CB1 Receptor Density: People with more CB1 receptors may feel THC’s effects more strongly.

COMT Gene Variations: Can influence how THC affects mood, with some feeling relaxed while others feel anxious.

THC Metabolism: Genetic differences in liver enzymes (like CYP2C9) impact how quickly THC is processed, affecting intensity and duration.

2. Tolerance Levels

Frequent cannabis use downregulates CB1 receptors, reducing THC sensitivity.

Seasoned Users: May require higher doses or more potent strains to achieve the same effects.

Occasional Users: Feel stronger effects with smaller amounts.

3. Dosage and Consumption Method

Smoking or Vaping: Delivers THC quickly via the lungs, with effects felt almost immediately.

Edibles: Metabolized by the liver into 11-hydroxy-THC, which is more potent and longer-lasting, often leading to a stronger high.

Inhalation Techniques: How deeply you inhale and hold smoke can affect THC absorption.

4. Mindset and Environment

Mindset: A positive or relaxed mental state can enhance the high, while stress or anxiety may lead to paranoia.

Environment: Comfortable and familiar settings promote a better experience.

5. Other Substances

Alcohol: Combining alcohol and cannabis can intensify effects.

Medications: Some medications interact with THC, enhancing or diminishing its psychoactive properties.

6. Strain Composition

High-THC Strains: Deliver a more intense high.

CBD-Rich Strains: Balance THC’s effects and may reduce anxiety.

Terpenes: Compounds like myrcene and limonene enhance THC’s effects through the “entourage effect.”

🛠️ Tips to Customize Your Cannabis Experience

Start Low, Go Slow: Especially for beginners, start with a small dose and increase gradually.

Experiment with Strains: Try different THC/CBD ratios to find what works best for you.

Take Tolerance Breaks: Regular breaks can reset your sensitivity to THC.

Choose Your Setting: Use cannabis in safe, familiar environments to reduce stress or anxiety.

Monitor Interactions: Avoid combining cannabis with alcohol or medications without consulting a professional.

Final Thoughts

Cannabis’ effects are highly personal, influenced by genetics, tolerance, mindset, and strain composition. Understanding these factors can help you tailor your experience and make informed decisions about your consumption.

With a little self-awareness and moderation, cannabis can be a source of relaxation, creativity, and enjoyment for all users.

🍫 The Complete Guide to Cannabis Edibles: History, Benefits, and Tips for Safe Use

Cannabis edibles have revolutionized how people enjoy marijuana, offering a smoke-free, discreet, and delicious alternative to traditional consumption methods. Whether you’re a medical marijuana patient seeking long-lasting relief or a recreational user exploring new experiences, edibles provide a versatile and flavorful option.

Check out the full guide to cannabis edibles here.

🌿 A Brief History of Cannabis Edibles

Edibles have been enjoyed for thousands of years:

2000 BCE: Ancient India introduced bhang, a cannabis-infused drink used in religious rituals.

1000 CE: North African tribes created Majoun, a sweet cannabis jam.

19th Century: Edibles gained popularity in Europe and the U.S. with hashish-laced treats and Hasheesh Candy.

Modern Era: Legalization in California (1996) paved the way for the booming edibles market we know today.

What Are Cannabis Edibles?

Edibles are food and drink products infused with THC or CBD, providing an alternative to smoking or vaping. Popular options include:

Baked Goods: Brownies, cookies, muffins.

Confections: Gummies, chocolates, candies.

Beverages: Coffee, tea, sodas, syrups.

Cooking Staples: Cannabutter, infused oils, and flour.

How Edibles Work: Timing, Dosage, and Effects

Edibles are absorbed differently than smoked cannabis, leading to delayed but longer-lasting effects:

Onset: 30–60 minutes, sometimes up to 2 hours.

Duration: Effects last 6–8 hours, peaking around 3 hours.

Dosage Recommendations:

Beginners: 1–5 mg THC.

Intermediate Users: 5–15 mg THC.

Experienced Users: 20+ mg THC.

Patience is key—overconsumption can lead to overwhelming effects.

Why Choose Cannabis Edibles?

Benefits

Long-lasting relief for pain, anxiety, or insomnia.

Smoke-free consumption for respiratory health.

Discreet and portable, perfect for on-the-go use.

Endless flavor options to suit all tastes.

Risks

Delayed onset can tempt users to overconsume.

More potent effects due to 11-hydroxy-THC, a compound created during digestion.

Risk of accidental ingestion by children or pets.

Tips for Safe Edible Consumption

Start Low and Go Slow: Begin with a small dose and wait the full duration before consuming more.

Read Labels: Only buy edibles with clear dosage information and lab testing.

Choose the Right Setting: Enjoy edibles in a comfortable, safe environment.

Store Safely: Keep edibles out of reach of children and pets.

Stay Calm if Overconsumed: Effects will pass; stay hydrated and rest.

Cannabis edibles offer a fun, flavorful, and effective way to enjoy marijuana. Whether you’re exploring their history or discovering the perfect dosage, edibles provide a unique experience when consumed responsibly.

Choosing The Best Marijuana Strain For Yourself

Choosing The Best Marijuana Strain For Yourself

Sativa strains are particularly popular for parties or social gatherings since they have a tendency to evoke dialog.  It’s very important to notice, however, that high doses of several sativas, particularly people who have THC levels over 18 percentage, can encourage stress or paranoia in certain people.

The Ideal Pot Strains for energy broadly, sativa breeds often include higher amounts of THC,…
