What the Cannabis Edibles Category Covers
At its heart, the cannabis edibles category covers any consumable item that has been formulated with cannabis — typically THC, CBD, or a blend of both. Instead of entering the body through the lungs, the active cannabinoids in edibles travel through the digestive system, which creates an effect that is often longer-lasting than smoked or vaped cannabis.
Cannabis edibles suit a diverse set of consumers. Casual cannabis consumers love the approachable nature and variety that edibles provide. Those who prefer a prolonged and calming experience often choose edibles over other consumption methods. The category is diverse enough to serve both people new to THC and longtime cannabis consumers.
It is helpful to understand that cannabis edibles produce variable results depending on the individual. Factors like body weight, metabolism, and prior cannabis experience can all affect how an edible takes effect. That is why our trained staff at Pho King Great Cannabis: Recreational makes it a priority to walk shoppers through the available products before they decide what to try.
