Delta 8 THC is a growing topic of conversation in the medical cannabis community for its ability to ease nausea and stimulate appetite.
Especially for those undergoing chemotherapy or other cancer treatments, Delta 8 represents relief from symptoms with a much weaker intoxicating effect when compared to the more common Delta 9 THC.
Delta 9 THC is the most commonly found cannabinoid throughout every type of cannabis product, and its much less common variant, Delta 8, may have been discovered by total chance. A byproduct of the distillation process, Delta 8 has been increasingly touted as a potentially powerful ally for people dealing with painful symptoms related to cancer and chemotherapy, owing to its ability to abate gastrointestinal issues, chronic pain, and even anxiety. In recent months, companies who process cannabis flower for concentrate have begun to isolate the cannabinoid and harness its therapeutic properties.
As a derivative of cannabis extracts, Delta 8 is not found in flower, and in only a handful of cannabis products available at licensed Washington state dispensaries. It is increasingly found being sold online from hemp-based sources with zero traceability or guarantee of efficacy or purity, and as such, we do not recommend them.
The Novel Tree Medical carries 3 products high in Delta 8 that have total transparency, with the ability to trace back to the very plant it was extracted from. This is actually true of anything found in Washington dispensaries, a system is in place to protect the consumer and verify each and every product.
