Most in the know are familiar with the term decarboxylation - relevant here because THCA is not psychoactive and needs to be converted, i.e. ‘decarboxylated’ into psychoactive THC. This happens spontaneously over a long time or can be catalyzed by heat. But I’ve read during the smoking process cannabinoids undergo a range of oxidative catabolic modifications and can turn into unpredictable compounds. I’m interested to understand more about this, because it seems only a fraction of CBD and THC ends up in your system when you smoke it. Or is this just hype generated by drug companies who are trying to monetize weed?
Please feel free to move if this isn't the right forum..
many circles (rings of carbon atoms), smelly, and made from water and carbon.wtf are polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons?
The bioavailability of smoked THC is highly variable, ranging from 2% to 56%, and is commonly reported to average around 15-20%. Heavy users appear to be more efficient, inhaling an average of 25%, compared to roughly 12% for occasional users.
@Supercharge do you know of a credible source for the anti-inflammatory effects. My doctor argues with me saying that pot does not have anti-inflammatory effects
