Edibles and ingestibles encompass a wide range of cannabis-infused products designed for consumption in food or beverage form. These include chocolates, gummies, drinks, and more, offering a discreet and convenient way to enjoy cannabis.
It's important to note their delayed effects. Unlike smoking or vaping, where effects are typically felt within minutes, edibles and ingestibles can take up to 3 hours or more to kick in. This delayed onset is due to the digestive process, as the cannabinoids are absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract before entering the bloodstream. Therefore, patience is key when consuming these products to avoid overconsumption and ensure a pleasant experience.
It's recommended to start with a low dose and wait patiently for the effects to manifest before considering additional consumption.
The forms can be:
- Capsules
- Pills
- Tablets
- Chocolate
- Fruit Chews
- Drinks
