How do gummies work in the body?Updated 3 months ago
When you consume THC gummies, they are processed differently than inhaled cannabis:
1️⃣ Digestion & Absorption – The gummy passes through your digestive system and is absorbed into your bloodstream.
2️⃣ Liver Metabolism – If the gummy contains THC, your liver converts it into 11-hydroxy-THC, a compound that can feel more potent and long-lasting than inhaled cannabis.
3️⃣ Effects Kick In – The effects typically begin within 30 minutes to 2 hours, lasting 4-8 hours, depending on metabolism, dosage, and tolerance.
Since edibles take longer to kick in, start with a low dose and be patient! 🚀🌿
