Delta 9 THC is the main compound from the cannabis plant. It is one of the most well-known and well-researched cannabinoids out there. Out of more than 100 cannabis compounds, Delta 9 produces the strongest effects when taken at sufficient doses.
Microdosing Delta 9 is a great way to incorporate small, safe amounts of cannabis into your everyday life without adverse or other psychotropic effects. (Larger amounts of Delta 9 can get you high.) At low doses (10 mg and less) help you reap the therapeutic benefits of Delta 9 and improve health, while keeping your wits about you and getting a nice little mood boost.
Here are some of the many benefits of microdosing Delta 9 THC.
-
Low Delta 9 doses can improve your sleep.
-
If you’re struggling with a chronic upset stomach, Delta 9 can alleviate symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome by reducing pain and promoting appetite.
-
At lower doses, cannabis can decrease depression. Recent studies show that excessive amounts of Delta 9 can have a negative impact on our mental health, but taking small amounts regularly can boost focus, increase levels of serotonin and dopamine in the brain, promote sleep, and lower stress.
-
Microdosing cannabis helps migraine sufferers. In fact, Delta 9 can treat other types of pain such as cancer pain, neuropathic pain, sciatic pain, and pain caused by arthritis. Due to potent analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties, Delta 9 is an effective anti-inflammatory agent.
-
Microdosing Delta 9 might be able to treat dementia. It has neuroprotective properties that can help reverse brain aging.
-
Delta 9 has been shown to promote neurogenesis. At low doses, Delta 9 and CBD work together to create new neurons in the brain, following a neurodegenerative disease or a traumatic brain injury.
Infused with the most seductive pink lemonade, our hemp Euphoria gummies contain only 10 mg total of pure Delta 9. These blissful babes can mitigate headaches, treat symptoms of nausea, relieve pain, and so much more.
Delta 9 and the Endocannabinoid System
The endocannabinoid system is a complex network of receptors and signals that regulate important bodily functions—like memory processing, immune response, pain perception, appetite, sleep, hormonal modulation, and many others. Delta 9 interacts with our endocannabinoid system (ECS) to make alterations in these functions and produce its therapeutic effects.
The ECS produces chemical signals called cannabinoids that interact with its CB1 and CB2 receptors in the brain. Phyto-cannabinoids (plant-based cannabinoids) mimic the action of our native cannabinoids and modulate the ECS similarly. For example, by interacting with our CB1 and CB2 receptors, low doses of THC and CBD can calm pain signals, relax muscles, increase appetite, and enhance brain function.
The Entourage Effect
All our Delta 9 products contain low amounts of Delta 9, CBD, CBN, and other compounds to produce the entourage effect.
The entourage effect describes a cannabis synergy in which benefits are enhanced by each other’s presence. Compounds derived from cannabis plants appear to act synergistically with one another, amplifying each other’s benefits.
Check out our extensive entourage effect guide. There is no better way to learn more about the synergistic dynamics of cannabis. For an in-depth look at the best way to produce the entourage effect, read all about full spectrum CBD.
Our phenomenal full spectrum gummies contain Delta 9, CBD, CBN, CBC, and other helpful cannabinoids to bring the best out of microdosing cannabis.
For those battling insomnia, our Sleep Plus gummies are true sleep helpers. These vegan gummies contain 25 mg of CBD and only 2 mg of Delta 9 to treat sleeping disorders and give you your eight hours of sleep back.

How Long Does it Take to Feel the Effects?
Delta 9 gummies take time to enter the bloodstream via the digestive tract. You can feel the effects of Delta 9 gummies kick in anywhere between 30 minutes and two hours. Depending on the THC concentration, your metabolism, and your genetic makeup, the effects of edibles will last for several hours (often as long as 8).
