Hi On Nature
Delta 11 THC is one of the many cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. Like its more well-known counterparts, it can interact with the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), although its effects and prevalence in cannabis strains may vary. While it’s considered new to us, it was in fact referenced for the first time in the 1970s, although practically no research exists that gives us meaningful information about it.
Delta 11 THC can be made through a process of isomerization, but is found naturally in the cannabis plant, albeit usually in small amounts. It might also be derived through specific chemical reactions or processes that modify other forms of THC.
While both are forms of THC, they differ in the position of the double bond in their molecular structures. This small change can lead to different psychoactive effects, potency, and interactions in the body.
Delta 11 THC is commonly confused with 11-hydroxy THC. The latter is a metabolite that THC converts into once it reaches the liver, to get broken down and become THC-COOH, the metabolite notorious for causing a positive drug test result. Delta 11 THC is not 11-hydroxy THC, but you may come across some confusion while researching the cannabinoid.
Research on delta l1 THC is limited compared to delta 9 THC. However, many cannabinoids exhibit some degree of psychoactivity, though it might be less potent or manifest differently than with Delta-9 THC.
The legal status of delta 11 THC may vary depending on the country or region. In some areas, all forms of THC, regardless of their Delta classification, are treated the same under the law. It's essential to consult local regulations before obtaining or using delta 11 THC.
The potential medicinal benefits of delta 11 THC have not been well-researched. Some cannabinoids have shown promise in various therapeutic applications, but more research is needed to determine any specific benefits of delta 11 THC.
As with other cannabinoids, delta 11 THC can have side effects, including dry mouth, changes in appetite, dizziness, or anxiety. It's essential to use it responsibly and consider individual tolerance and reactions.
Delta 11 THC might be found in various product types/delivery methods, including tinctures, edibles, vapes, and dabs. The availability largely depends on market demand, legal status, and manufacturing capabilities.
Users might experience mild psychoactive effects, changes in perception, a state of relaxation, or euphoria, though the intensity is believed to be less than delta 9 THC. However, individual experiences may vary, and more research is needed.
Delta 11 THC can interact with other cannabinoids in what is known as the "entourage effect”. Meaning, its effects might be influenced by the presence of other cannabinoids, terpenes, or particular strains in the cannabis plant.
Most drug tests designed to detect THC do not differentiate between the various delta forms. Thus, there's a possibility that using delta 11 THC could result in a positive test for THC.
As with any cannabinoid or substance, it's crucial to start with a small amount, especially when trying it initially. The safety profile, potential side effects, and interactions of delta 11 THC have not been studied as extensively as those of delta 9 THC.
It varies based on several factors, including metabolism, usage frequency, and body composition. Typically, THC compounds can be detectable in blood or urine for several days to a few weeks after use.
When it comes to dosing, it’s best for those new to this cannabinoid who came from taking other cannabinoids to start low and slow, as they build up a tolerance. Generally, you should follow the instructions on the package, which will identify the right amount of delta 11 to take for the best results.
