What Do We Mean by Cannabis Edibles?

Cannabis edibles are consumable goods that have been infused with cannabis-derived compounds. Edibles come in an impressive range of formats — such as caramels, cookies, and infused beverages. The main distinction between cannabis edibles and other consumption routes is how the body processes the cannabinoids.

When you consume an edible, the THC and CBD pass through your gastrointestinal tract before entering your circulation. Hepatic metabolism converts THC into 11-hydroxy-THC, which reaches the brain more intensely than inhaled THC. The metabolic conversion is why edibles deliver effects that are deeper and more sustained compared to smoking.

Knowing when effects begin is key with cannabis-infused products. In contrast to inhalation, which works within minutes, cannabis edibles typically require anywhere from one to two hours to kick in. The lag time is one of the most important things new users should understand before trying edibles.
