- Benefits of Delta 8 Vapes
There are many ways to ingest Delta 8, but nothing comes close to the convenience and potency of a cart or disposable. Delta-eight THC is becoming increasingly popular for good reason. They are the most efficient means of ingesting Delta 8 and as demand rises, so are questions about the quality and safety of the products. Delta 8 carts and disposables are a safe choice for people for several reasons. It's a fast-acting, mild yet effective, and enjoyable method of taking Delta 8. Portability The compact size of most vaporizers allows users to be discrete. Perfect for use while you're at home or on the go. A little larger than a pen, cartridges and disposables are easily transported. Avoid the need to carry a container for your flower, edibles, or tinctures. Save some space in your purse. Avoid the need to carry a container for your flower, edibles, or tinctures. Save some space in your purse. Affordability If you're looking to maximize your investment in Delta 8 THC, you'll get much more value out of using a cartridge or disposable than any other method. Other methods can cost double the price and include half of the Delta 8. So, why stress over other Delta 8 THC products. Effectiveness Cartridges and disposables are, perhaps, the most optimal method of ingesting Delta 8. This is due to three unique attributes of vaporizers. Cartridges and disposables have a higher concentration of Delta 8 than other methods. Rather than being absorbed through the skin, soft tissue, or digestive system, vaporizing is absorbed through the lungs, the pulmonary system. This bypasses the liver and hepatic system, the organs involved in filtering the blood and metabolizing substances, on its first pass through the body. The absorption rate of vaporized Delta 8 is significantly higher than that of smoking-infused flower, at 46%. This is why vaporizing Delta 8 THC is a highly effective method. Ease of Use Vaporizers are fairly simple devices. Most vaporizers come with or are designed to be used with rechargeable batteries. These batteries ensure you get the most out of your cartridges and disposable Delta 8 THC. Higher-quality batteries can last for days with moderate use. All you need is your cart and a battery or a disposable. No other equipment is necessary. With a fully charged battery, you're good to go all day. Reduced Carcinogen Intake This benefit comes with a caveat. It specifically relates to smoking hemp flower. The burning of a pre-roll produces carcinogens that you then inhale directly into your body. Prolonged exposure to these chemicals can have a detrimental impact on your health. Studies have proven that vaping introduces less carbon monoxide into the blood. It has less of an impact on breathing and lessens the intake of carcinogens. Vaporizing does decrease the number of carcinogens produced while decreasing the other toxins present in smokable hemp products. This is why it's considered a healthier option. Better Taste Delta 8 has a wide range of flavors and scents that are sure to please. Whether you prefer baked goods, sweet fruit, or more traditional flavors, there is an option for you. It's not until being used that a mild smell that doesn't linger becomes noticeable. You can avoid any extra deodorizing or unwanted questions. Controlled Dosage With a vaporizer, controlling your dosage is a relatively easy process. Whether you're using a cartridge or a disposable unit, inhaling a small amount of vapor at a time is simple. Waiting up to 15 minutes to feel the doses full effects, all you need to do is repeat the process if you need more. Conclusion Delta 8 isn't going anywhere soon. Using cartridges and disposables is a great way to experience all of the benefits of the cannabinoid. It's a simple, cost-effective, flavorful option worth your consideration.

- 5 Facts About CBD
1. CBD is One of Over 60 Cannabinoids Found in Cannabis. There are at least 113 different cannabinoids isolated from cannabis, exhibiting varied effects. The three types of cannabinoids that people use are recreational, medicinal, and synthetic. Research has found that the cannabis plant produces about 300 non-cannabinoid chemicals. The two most prevalent cannabinoids are delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). 2. CBD is Legal, But Only If It's Derived From Hemp. Hemp-derived CBD products with less than 0.3% THC are legal federally but still illegal under some state laws. Cannabis-derived CBD products, on the other hand, are illegal federally but legal under some state laws. CBD is not legal in all 50 states, even if it is sourced from hemp. This is because all states have their own Controlled Substances Acts (CSA) which generally mirror the federal CSA. 3. CBD generally works better With Other Cannabis Compounds. The term “entourage effect” is used to refer to a mechanism where different cannabinoids and other naturally occurring compounds of the cannabis plant, such as resins and terpenes, act synergistically together to deliver a powerful compounding effect. 4. CBD Interacts With Several Systems in the Body. The most important receptors are type 1 (CB1) and type 2 (CB2) cannabinoids. Type 1 is found in the central nervous system (in both the brain and the nerves in the spinal cord). Type 2 concentrates in the peripheral nervous system (that allows the brain to communicate with other areas of the body) as well as in the digestive and immune systems. CBD also interacts with a handful of other body systems and affects almost every organ in the body. 5. CBD is Generally Safe. Though it's often well-tolerated, CBD can cause side effects, such as dry mouth, diarrhea, reduced appetite, drowsiness, and fatigue. CBD can also interact with other medications you're taking, such as blood thinners. If you’re considering using CBD oil, you should speak to your GP or other healthcare professionals to ensure that it is safe and appropriate for you to do so. Final Thoughts While public opinion is slowly changing in favor of CBD, it's important to cut through the propaganda of the last 110 years and get the facts. Armed with information, you are better prepared to make an educated decision. For more information on CBD check out the rest of the Top Shelf Hemp Co. blog, here.
- 5 Myths About CBD
There's a lot of misinformation about CBD on the internet. At Top Shelf Hemp Co. we prioritize cannabis education. Here are 5 common myths about CBD debunked. Myths: 1. CBD is addictive. According to WHO, CBD is a safe and well-tolerated compound, even in doses as high as 1,500 mg daily. CBD doesn’t impair psychological functions or motor skills, nor does it change the blood pressure, body temperature, or heart rate. Initial studies haven’t found a link between CBD and alterations in perception, judgment, or cognition. 2. Hemp Seed Oil and CBD Oil are the same things. The first and most poinient difference between hemp seed oil and CBD is that hemp seed oil has little to no CBD content. Hemp Oil is produced through a cold-pressing process. It's high in Omega-3. CBD Oil is extracted from the flower of the hemp plant. The second difference is the price. CBD is more expensive. CBD will come with a COA (Certificate of Analysis), a lab report indicating at the minimum the amount of CBD and Delta 9 THC in the product. 3. CBD works the same for everyone. Factors including quality, quantity, dosing, time, and bioavailability can cause variations in the effect of CBD on your body. You may not experience the same effects as your neighbor. Our genetics, metabolism, and biochemistry also have an effect on our ability to absorb CBD. 4. All CBD is the same. The market is over-saturated with any kind of CBD product you can imagine. Not all of them are created equal. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has yet to approve any CBD products for over-the-counter (OTC) use. This means that there can be a significant difference between a reputable CBD product and an inferior brand. 5. A little CBD is all it takes. Unless your doctor recommends a specific dose, it's best to start with a relatively low dose of 10 to 20 mg a day. Wait a week before increasing your dose to ensure you don't experience any unwanted effects or adverse reactions. Researchers have found that 600 mg per day appears to be safe, but one study suggests that doses of up to 1,500 mg a day are safe and tolerated well. Setting the story straight. There are a lot more myths out there to dispel. As always do your research and consult your doctor. Be vigilant and safe.
