CBD (an abbreviation of cannabidiol) is one of many beneficial compounds found within the cannabis plant, known as a cannabinoid. It occurs predominantly in hemp plants, which are a type of cannabis plant. It does not cause an intoxicating high, but is known for its capacity to ease anxiety and soothe pain.

Delta-8 THC is one of over 100 cannabinoids that occur naturally in hemp and other cannabis plants. There are numerous forms of THC, including D8, D9, D10, and D11. Delta-8 exists in quantities too small to be extracted directly from hemp plants. However, through a chemical process known as isomerization, technicians convert hemp-derived CBD into Delta-8. This creates a distillate of the kind we use in our products.

Delta-9 THC is the euphoric high-inducing cannabinoid most famously associated with cannabis plants. In hemp, it occurs in naturally low levels. Delta-9 is the cannabinoid that is famously dominant in high-THC cannabis plants, also known as Marijuana. However, Delta-9 also occurs naturally in hemp plants, and can be extracted naturally from them. Any Delta-9 in our products is hemp-derived.

HHC is a naturally-occurring cannabinoid found in cannabis. However, it was first synthesized in 1944 by American chemist Roger Adams by adding hydrogen molecules to Delta-9 THC. This is a process known as hydrogenation, which is frequently used in the food industry. In today’s market, HHC is refined from CBD isolate, not Delta-9 THC. It produces a euphoric effect that is similar to Delta-8 THC, but is less potent.
