Dosing for fast acting edibles

all about Fast acting edibles

 Normally, when consuming cannabis edibles, you’re left waiting for the effects to settle in, sometimes taking up to 2 hours from point of consumption. In turn, the process can be a bit of a guessing game when it comes to when the effects will hit and the intensity.

Nano-emulsification is a complex process that takes cannabinoid molecules and breaks them down into the tiniest, microscopic particles. This means that instead of having to wait for 30, 60, or 90 minutes or longer for the THC to interact with the endocannabinoid system and yield effects, you experience the effects in a matter of minutes.

    How to deal with overconsumption:

    Overconsumption is the unpleasant feeling you get when you eat too many edibles.
    While it is not ideal, it not dangerous and causes no lasting harm.

    Overconsumption is best avoided, but here’s how you deal with it:

    1. Take a dose of CBD (edibles, oils, etc.) about four times greater than the amount of THC you consumed

    2. Chew or sniff peppercorns, they have relaxing terpenes that can calm you down

    3. Sniff pine essential oil, it has terpenes that will help you focus and ground you

    4. Drink lots of water; THC overconsumption can dehydrate you

    5. Call a friend or loved one for company; their presence will help calm you

    6. Take a walk if you feel up to it

    7. Try to sleep it off
