How Many Types Of THC Can You Name?

Every year, scientists and other researchers find out more and more about the cannabis plant. As they learn more about the plant, more and more of it’s parts and there properties become clear. THC might be the most well-known cannabinoid. It is one of a few chemicals in the cannabis plant that has therapeutic effects in addition to the “high” that people usually feel when they eat or drink all or part of the plant.

How many different types of THC are there?

The cannabis plant contains four main types of THC. They are called THC-A, THC-V, Delta-8 THC, and Delta-9 THC. They all have different qualities and health benefits.

THC-A

The cannabis plant has THC-A in it’s stems, leaves, and flowers. It is the only one of the four types of THC that doesn’t make you feel high or change your mind. The psychoactive effects of THC are caused by the chemical molecules binding to CB1 receptors in the brain and nervous system. The structure of THC-A doesn’t fit these receptors. It is, however, where the other three kinds of THC come from. Heat and light are used to speed up this process with THC-A. Small amounts of THC-A can be changed into it’s other forms by sunlight and natural aging. This process, called decarboxylation, can also be sped up by applying heat in other ways. Heating the THC-A molecule changes it’s chemical make-up and shape, so it can fit into the CB1 receptors in the body.

THC-A helps the treatment of the following conditions:

-Arthritis

-Inflammation

-Fibromyalgia

-Chronic pain

-Diabetes

-Epilepsy

-Nausea and loss of appetite due to chemotherapy and other cancer treatments

THC-V

THC-V is another cannabinoid that occurs when THC-A breaks down. Even though it is similar to Delta-9THC, it is not the same. First of all, it doesn’t change your mind in low doses. However, if you use a strain high in THC-V or take alot of it, the effects change and you get a clear as well as stimulating high. Even though THC-V’s effects don’t last as long as those of Delta-9 THC, you may feel them more quickly. It also has a higher boiling point, so vapers who want to get the benefits of it need to turn up there devices. If you are making edibles, you might not get the full effect of THC-V without giving up some of the Delta-9 THC and other cannabinoids, which start to break down at higher temperatures.

-THC-V helps in the treatment of the following conditions:

-Tremors from Parkinson’s and ALS

-Brain lesions from late-stage Parkinson’s

-Epilepsy

-Alzheimer’s

-Osteoporosis Diabetes (especially type II)

-Pain and swelling

-Anxiety

THC-O

THC-O, also called THC acetate ester, is a new, cutting-edge cannabinoid that comes from hemp. It has the same psychoactive effects and euphoric feelings that come with using cannabis. THC-O is also known for it’s ability to stop nausea, calm anxiety, increase appetite, and reduce stress.

Health Benefits Of THC-O:

-Muscle tension relief

-Anxiolytic

-Relaxation

-Aids sleep

Delta-9 THC

Delta-9 THC, or what most people call THC, is the main compound in cannabis that makes you feel high. Both male and female cannabis plants have THC, but the amount in female plants is much higher. It’s interesting to note that THC in it’s raw form (THC-A) doesn’t change the way your mind works. This only happens when decarboxylation happens and heat changes the original molecule into one that can bind with the cannabinoid receptors in our bodies, which are part of the endocannabinoid system, to give us that “high” feeling.

Health benefits of Delta-9 THC:

-Promotes brain growth

-Helps PTSD sufferers

-Increases appetite

-Relieves pain

-Decreases nausea and vomiting

-Helps protect brain cells

-Enhances our senses

-Antibacterial properties

-Antioxidant effects

-Reduces anxiety

-Improves sleep

-Reduces swelling and pain

-Acts as a bronchodilator, opening the airways and helping with conditions like asthma

-Relaxes the muscles

-Has anti-convulsant or anti-seizure properties

Delta-8 THC

Delta-9 THC changes into Delta-8 THC as it ages and is exposed to oxygen. With this process, the cannabinoid that is made is stable when exposed to air, which could lead to more uses for it. Delta-8 THC is not as potent as it’s sister cannabinoid, but it still gets you high. The feeling of euphoria is usually less intense than what you might get from Delta-9 THC, and you might feel more clear-headed and energetic as a result. Using CBD with Delta-8 THC will reduce the effects of THC on the user’s mind even more.

Health benefits of Delta-8 THC:

-Helps relieve pain

-Helps protect brain cells

-Can reduce the size of tumors

-Helps cause the release of acetylcholine

-Decreases nausea and symptoms of vomiting

-Reduces anxiety

-Stimulates appetite
