    According to the National Institute of Health, NIH, there are now at least 144 cannabinoids known to have been isolated from the cannabis plant. The most popular one is Delta 9- tetrahydrocannabinol, THC, that we discuss here. This substance is the primary psychoactive compound which is known to produce all of the well known effects of causing the intoxicating feeling.

    There is also a lesser known cannabinoid with less psychoactive potency than Delta-9-THC, that can challenge the popularity of it. This cannabinoid is called Delta-8-THC, and it was legalized in December 2018 when the Farm Bill was passed. But it wasn\’t actually sold until September 2019, when it was first sold online in the form of gummies, tinctures, cartridges and concentrates. It is legal in 38 states, both online and in stores.

    Delta 8 isn\’t that different from Delta 9 from its molecular structure, except that a certain chemical bond appears on the 8th carbon molecule, instead of the 9th. A doctor at Harvard Medical School explains that Delta-8 has some but not all of the psychoactive properties as Delta-9 does. This is the common belief in the cannabis industry.
