By Sarah Lippel By now, you’ve likely heard the buzz surrounding Delta 8 THC, one of more than 100 naturally occurring cannabinoids derived from the hemp plant. Commonly referred to as the “diet weed” or “weed lite,” Delta 8 has swept the canna-industry by storm with the enjoyable, less-intense psychoactive experience it provides compared to Delta 9 THC. As this unique compound achieves global popularity, Delta 8 Gummies have become one of the most beloved product types on the market.  From their discreet composition to the wide variety of delicious flavor options to choose from, these bite-sized delights deliver a potent, long-lasting euphoric experience. Along with relaxation and chill, Delta 8 gummies can provide a wide range of benefits, including:  Stress relief Increased appetite  Pain reduction Improved mood Better sleep Let’s take a look at these benefits in detail. Stress Relief The most well-known and sought after benefits of Delta 8 Gummies are their stress- and anxiety-relieving properties. This can be attributed to Delta 8’s interactions with our Endocannabinoid system (ECS), which maintains a key role in essential bodily functions including the regulation of our stress levels. Once chewed thoroughly, Delta 8 attaches to the cannabinoid receptors located in our ECS which in turn promotes a release of neurotransmitters as the gummy is digested. This decreases anxiety and stress levels, delivering a calming experience.  Increased Appetite Delta 8 gummies have also been proven to stimulate appetite – a phenomenon popularly known as “the munchies.” Similar to the previously mentioned anxiety relief process, once chewed and digested, Delta 8 connects with our ECS, binding to cannabinoid receptors then triggering feelings of hunger. Whether you’re looking to combat food aversions and nausea or you’re interested in amplifying the flavors of your favorite meal, Delta 8 gummies are the ideal enhancement. Pain Reduction While Delta 8 Gummies are popular for their mind-related benefits, many users report that they also help reduce and relieve physical ailments such as pain and inflammation. How does it work? By interacting with our pain management receptors, Delta 8 sends signals to dull feelings of physical discomfort. Unlike typical over-the-counter and prescribed pain solutions, Delta 8 gummies are a natural and tasty alternative that may provide positive results.  Improved Mood Many people who’ve consumed Delta 8 gummies have reported a positive effect on their mood. Researchers continue to look for the exact science behind this benefit. However, there’s no denying the feelings of euphoria and overall well-being these morsels can offer. Because of the notably less intense cognitive effects this cannabinoid initiates compared to Delta 9 THC, users can more easily detect an upward shift in their positive mood levels. Better Sleep We’ve all struggled with bouts of restlessness, tossing and turning in bed, wondering when sleep will take over. Luckily, this frustrating experience can be eased by the power of Delta 8 Gummies. As a result of lower psychoactive effects and enhanced relaxation, Delta 8 has been reported to slow down breath and heart rate, inducing feelings of fatigue, sending you off into deep slumber. Along with help falling asleep faster, these gelatinous treats can also help you stay asleep through the night and wake up feeling refreshed.  Why Mystic Labs™ Delta 8 Gummies?

What does that mean to anyone who isn’t a molecular biologist? The most obvious difference between the substances is that Delta 9 is stronger than Delta 8. Users report feeling more psychoactive effects when taking Delta 9 than Delta 8, and the same goes for the related effects, including euphoria, relaxation, talkitiveness, and a disposition to laugh!

Cannabinoids are found in all plants in the cannabis family. This includes cannabis plants used to produce marijuana, as well as industrial hemp plants that are used to create CBD products. Delta-9 THC is one of those cannabinoids. It is scientifically known as Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, and it is the cannabinoid responsible for the psychoactive effects experienced with the use of marijuana. Delta-9 THC is also present in the compounds extracted from industrial hemp plants. However, the concentration of Delta-9 THC in these plants is significantly less than that found in marijuana. Products containing Delta-9 THC are regulated, and they must have less than 0.3 percent or less of the Delta-9 THC by dry weight to be legal. Consuming Delta-9 THC The most common form of Delta-9 THC is in the form of edibles, including flavored gummies. They are marked and labeled as full-spectrum CBD gummies, which indicates all the compounds obtained from the industrial hemp plant, including the small amount of THC, is included in the formulation. Taking these products will result in a mildly euphoric, relaxing, or uplifting experienced that is more significant than found with Delta-8 or with broad-spectrum or isolate types of CBD products. When consumed as recommended, which includes starting with a small dosage to see how the individual responds, it is easy to manage intake to obtain the desired results. Drug Tests Individuals who are required to complete drug testing through their employer should understand the possibilities of testing positive after using products with Delta-9 THC. While the amount is very small, it can show up positive on different drug panels and tests. Many people find the use of the full-spectrum CBD products containing Delta-9 is more complete, adding greater levels of both mental and physical relaxation, focus, and clarity.
