Should You Try CBD Or Delta-8 Gummies?

Blog

Cannabinoids can be really useful for the management of various diseases, conditions, and ailments. But choosing the right cannabinoid to use is not always easy. CBD and delta-8 are both readily available at many shops these days, and you might need some help deciding between the two. Here are some questions to ask yourself as you make your decision.

How relaxed do you want to feel?

CBD has the ability to calm your mind, ease anxiety, and make you feel more relaxed. But the relaxation you get with CBD tends to be pretty mild. You should still be able to function and get things done. Delta-8, on the other hand, tends to be much more relaxing. It makes many people feel so relaxed that they actually start to feel tired. It would be a good choice if you really want to stay inside and relax, but not if you want to be productive at all. Often, people use CBD for mild, daytime relaxation, but delta-8 for more pronounced nighttime relaxation.

Are you trying to target inflammation?

Many of the health problems people use cannabinoids to manage are related to inflammation. For example, arthritis pain is caused and made worse by inflammation. So are most headaches. If you primarily use cannabinoids to treat an inflammatory condition, you should be best off using CBD. It is well known for its ability to alleviate inflammation and inflammatory conditions. If you're primarily using cannabinoids for some other reason, such as for anxiety relief or insomnia, then it's worth considering delta-8. Although delta-8 may help alleviate mild inflammation, its effects may not be as strong as those of CBD.

How do you feel about psychoactive effects? 

Delta-8 is a form of THC, and like other forms of THC, it has psychoactive effects. CBD, on the other hand, is non-psychoactive. Considering this difference can help you choose the best cannabinoid. If you do not want any psychoactive effects, CBD is a safer choice; you won't deal with paranoia or other side effects if you take a little too much. If you are open to psychoactive effects or are even seeking them, then delta-8 is the better choice. You will just want to be really careful with your dosing to avoid taking too much.

Hopefully, this article has helped you better understand the difference between CBD and delta-8 and decide which cannabinoid is better suited to your needs.
