People buy Delta-10 THC products for a variety of reasons. They’re looking for something with the common CBD health benefits; they want to explore how cannabis products can enhance their lives; or, most recently, they want a product that helps them relax.
No matter what category you’re in, you’ll likely find yourself wondering if Delta-10 THC can give you that famous cannabis “high,” or if the effects of Delta-10 THC will fit your cannabis needs at all.
In this article, we’ll address all the concerns and questions associated with Delta-10 THC and the effects you can expect with each of the products we provide at Nerps Brands.
Delta-10 THC Effects
Delta-10 THC is the newest kid on the block in the cannabinoid family. This is both very exciting -- we’re in the cutting age of discovery! -- and concerning for those who are worried about the overall effects to the human system.
Rest easy in the fact that scientists are diligently at work testing the wide range of effects that Delta-10 THC might have on our bodies. What we know about it so stems from how Delta-8 THC and Delta-9 THC both react to our systems.
Delta-8 THC and Delta-9 THC tend to bind to the receptors known as CB1 in our brain and nervous system. This produces various levels of psychotropic effects that marijuana and cannabis products are known for. So far, we believe that Delta-10 interacts similarly with CB1 receptors at high concentrations.
The quick answer to the question we know you’re asking is: yes, Delta-10 THC can get you high!
How is Delta-10 THC different?
Delta-10 THC is quite different from its predecessors, Delta-8 THC and Delta-9 THC. But how different is it and what does that mean for its effects on the body?
Delta-9 THC by far the most intense effects on the human body. This cannabinoid effects your pleasure, thoughts, mind, memory, concentration, coordination, and perceptions of reality. It’s the cannabinoid that most people think of when they wonder about cannabis high.
Delta-8 THC has a far, far lower potency on the human body than Delta-9 THC. At the very most, you will experience some appetite changes as well as overall relaxation. Delta-8 THC definitely will not give you the all over, full body high of Delta-9 THC, which is why Delta-8 THC is used so commonly in CBD products currently on the market. It gives you a taste of the relaxation high you want without the full, overwhelming experience.
Delta-10 THC comes into the market in a similar position as Delta-8 THC. It has much lower psychotropic effects than Delta-9 THC still, but the effects it does have still differ from Delta-8 THC notably.
The main difference comes by classifying the compounds according to the terms sativa and indica.
Delta-8 THC is an indica, meaning it affects the body with deep relaxation and overall calmness.
Delta-10 THC is a sativa, meaning it affects the body in an almost energizing way that reduces anxiety and stress.
Delta-10 THC still gives you an affecting high, but it’s a different sort of high than the other common cannabis compounds. This distinction is important to know when shopping for THC products -- you want to make sure you get the right kind of cannabis to fit your needs.
Is Delta-10 THC right for you?
Now that we have a basic understanding of how Delta-10 THC’s “high” can differ from other types of THC, how do you know what type of compound is right for your needs?
As a general rule, Delta-8 THC is the cannabinoid you want to buy if you’re looking for sleep help. Delta-8 THC is far more relaxing than Delta-10 THC, which aids in getting you more restful sleep. Delta-10 THC is far more stimulating, so you definitely don’t want to grab these products if you’re hoping to drift off peacefully!
What Delta-10 THC is good for, by contrast, is in giving you kicks of creativity, alertness, and overall energy. This is an excellent “day time” THC product fit for use whenever you’d grab a cup of coffee. It has much the same stimulating effects as caffeine, only minus the jitteriness and negative implications of caffeine.
Delta-10 THC also comes without the negative side effects of Delta-9 THC -- mainly the illegal status, but also the commonly feared overwhelming high sensation. You won’t be consumed with hallucinations, paranoia, or anxiety in a Delta-10 THC high. In fact, you won’t really know you’re in a “high” at all -- it isn’t the full body experience that Delta-9 THC gives. It’s a safer, benefit-only compound that gives your body the stimulants it needs.
HPLC Testing
How do we know what the effects of Delta-10 THC are on the human body since it is so new? Science!
Delta-10 THC is put through the rigorous testing known as Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). This machinery measures Delta-10 THC potency in edibles, flowers, and extracts, and compares it to the potency found in Delta-8 THC and Delta-9 THC. This way, we have a very solid idea of where Delta-10 THC falls on the spectrum of THC effects.
Every product we sell at Nerps Brands uses Delta-10 THC that has been tested in this fashion. We also put our products through independent third party testing where they receive a Certificate of Analysis (COA). This ensures that everything is not only up to par, but exceeds the standards that the cannabis industry is currently setting.
