Any hemp-derived products are federally legal in some states for as long as it contains 0.3% or less delta-9 THC by dry weight volume. Thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, hemp product became federally legal for as long as it is extracted naturally from hemp.

However, D9 THC remains under the Schedule I drug category of the 2018 Farm Bill. It means the law only considers it as “industrial hemp” and not marijuana. Moreover, the drug still poses a high potential for abuse and has no approved medicinal benefit.

Generally speaking, you can take too much Delta 9 THC, but you must be mindful of its effects. The higher dosage you consume means more intense effects for your body. Thus, it’s better to take consumable hemp products slowly and carefully, especially if you’re still in the trial stage.

However, the problem with overdosing on Delta 9 THC edibles is that it would be too late to reverse the effects once it starts showing the signs. It would only worsen as hours pass since the body is already processing the edible.

So if you take too many Delta 9 products, drink plenty of water to flush it out of your system. After that, do not take any hemp-derived products for at least a day.

Also, don’t forget to ask your doctor’s advice if you have any medical condition or taking any prescription medications for the right dosage. Delta 9 THC may alter the effects of your prescription medications.

The side effects of Delta 9 are mostly apparent once you consume too much of it. Every consumer has different D9 tolerance, and each has other desired results. Ingesting too much THC can cause some uncomfortable side effects. It may include the following, but not all at the same time:

• Temporary impaired attention
• Difficulty to focus
• Short-term memory loss
• Nausea
• Some muscle contractions or spasms
• Rapid heart and breathing rate
• Short panic attacks and anxiety
• Hallucinations and delirium

Consumers can take these hemp-derived products without having any problems. But always start with a low dose and know the proper dosage for their bodies. There’s no sense taking too much Delta 9 THC if you can reap all its benefits.

Delta 9 edibles can go wrong without proper storage. Moreover, it can also degrade over time due to other ingredients in an edible that may make it more or less perishable.

So, always consider the shelf life when buying hemp-derived products, and ensure you only purchase what you can consume. Better yet, ask the manufacturer if there’s an expiration or best-before date.

Keep your hemp edibles in a dry and cool place as often as possible. It can help extend its shelf life and prevent it from spoiling or degrading.

Exposure to extreme heat and humidity may lower the potency of the edibles. Treat D9 edibles like your favorite food or drink – keep it fresh always.

Consuming all Delta 9 edibles like you’re in a buffet all day and every day should never happen. THC is psychotropic, which means it affects the function of the brain. Thus, discretion is always a must.

Since the federal government allows 0.3% Delta 9 THC, it means you can take 3 milligrams of THC into every gram of product. So, if you have 4 grams of Delta 9 treat, you can consume up to 12 milligrams of Delta 9 THC every day.

Only consume the dosage your body can tolerate, and take it once or twice a day – depending on your dose. Don’t eat or drink all the Delta 9 edibles you see; leave some for tomorrow’s dose. You can consume these hemp edibles healthily when you know how to control them.
