What the Cannabis Edibles Category Covers
At its core, the cannabis edibles category encompasses any food or beverage product that has been made using cannabis — usually THC, CBD, or a blend of both. Instead of being inhaled, the active ingredients in edibles pass through the digestive system, which delivers an effect that is frequently more prolonged than inhaled cannabis.
Cannabis edibles work well for a wide range of consumers. Casual cannabis consumers love the convenience and discretion that edibles bring. Consumers who want a longer, more body-focused experience often gravitate toward edibles over other consumption methods. The category is broad enough to work for both first-time cannabis consumers and longtime cannabis users.
It is helpful to understand that cannabis edibles produce variable results depending on the individual. Factors like what you've eaten, your tolerance level, and your body type play a role in determining how an edible hits. That is why our knowledgeable staff at Pho King Great Cannabis: Recreational is always ready to help each person through their options before they decide what to try.
