The main difference between delta 8 THC and CBD is, of course, that delta 8 is intoxicating, while CBD Is not. But, the two cannabinoids do share a surprising bit in common. Both cannabinoids are associated with a mellowing response on mood as well as the entire nervous system, while offering potential anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. While many understandably focus on the high associated with delta 8, it’s important to remember that all cannabinoids, like CBD and delta 8, support the body’s endocannabinoid system in a much more systemic way to offer a feeling of balance that can have long-lasting effects.

That being said, many individuals maintain a routine with both CBD and delta 8 THC, as each cannabinoid is unique enough that the properties of both are quite valuable to the user throughout the day. Delta 8 THC and CBD can be taken together successfully, and each one can provide a one-of-a-kind experience that’s highly desirable.

Delta 8 THC is a federally legal cannabinoid, which may surprise you due to its intoxicating nature.  It’s legal because of the Farm Bill which was passed in the United States in 2018.  The Farm Bill effectively legalized the hemp plant and its individual derivatives, simply stating that no hemp product on the market can have a concentration of delta 9 THC that exceeds 0.3%.  Delta 8 is not delta 9, and delta 8 products on the market contain the legal amount of delta 9 THC in order to be federally compliant.

It is important to point out that in spite of federal legalization, some states have banned delta 8 THC. These states are:

• Alaska
• Arizona
• Arkansas
• Colorado
• Delaware
• Idaho
• Iowa
• Mississippi
• Montana
• New York
• Rhode Island
• Vermont
• Utah

What this means is that if you live in one of these 13 states, we cannot ship delta 8 THC to your home.  We know this is extremely unfortunate, but at D8.co, we abide by the law because we take our role in the hemp industry very seriously.  If you do not live in one of the above states, you can order from us legally, and enjoy any product in our catalog.

Delta 8 THC is an isomer of CBD (cannabidiol), the dominant compound in hemp. Meanwhile, the hemp plant naturally contains only about 0.1% of delta 8. Being isomers, these two cannabinoids contain he same molecules, but they are arranged in different ways. Advanced isomerization techniques allow us to simply reconfigure the molecules of the CBD compound to convert it into delta 8 THC. From there, we can apply steam distillation to the new delta 8 cannabinoid to purify it until we end up with a clean delta 8 distillate that we can combine with other ingredients in order to produce our gummies and vaping formulas.

Delta 8, like CBD, comes in different delivery methods, which refer to the manner through which the cannabinoid is “delivered” into the body.  Each delivery method allows for a unique type of experience.  These are the types of delta 8 products that we offer here at D8.co.

Gummies: Delta 8 gummies are edibles that are ingested into the body, and any time we ingest a cannabinoid, we experience the longest-lasting effects.  Delta 8 gummies can take up to 2 hours to really kick in, but from there they can provide a solid experience for up to 8 hours.  Gummies are also associated with a unique body high that many users find very enjoyable.

Vape Cartridges: Delta 8 vape cartridges are 510-threaded cartridges that are filled with delta 8 vape oil, and come in lots of great strain options that determine the effects that you can feel from the terpenes in the hemp plant.  Vape cartridges like all inhalable products offer effects within minutes that are quite potent, and wear off within an hour or two.

Disposable Vapes: Disposable vapes provide the same effects as cartridges, but they just offer a different take on the technology.They are all-in-one vaping systems that never need to be assembled, charged or maintained, acting as an extremely user-friendly option.
