What is HHC?

What is HHC?

HHC (hexahydrocannabinol) is a hemp-derived cannabinoid that has been found to promote relaxation and happiness, while helping relieve anxiety and stress. Chances are you haven’t heard much of it till this point. That’s because HHC is relatively new to the markets. Many compare HHC to THC because of the similarities they have. For starters, HHC’s chemical structure is similar to THC, with the exception of the double bond that’s been replaced by hydrogen – making HHC more structurally stable than THC.

The HHC we use is produced by a company based in the US that’s been active for nearly a decade. The HHC is made through a complex chemical process that’s based on hemp-derived CBD. This makes our HHC 100% THC-free.

Effects

HHC's effects are frequently described as having an intoxicating impact that is similar to THC. While some experience HHC’s effects at 70-80% of THC’s strength, others feel like it may even be stronger.

The main difference between HHC and THC is how long their effects last. HHC creates effects that can last up to 12 hours, while THC's effects only last for a few hours. This makes HHC a better choice for those who want long-lasting relief from their symptoms. However, it's important to note that the duration of HHC's effects can vary depending on the person.

How does it work?

Both cannabinoids interact with your endocannabinoid system, a complex biological network made up of receptors, endocannabinoids, and enzymes.

HHC and THC specifically target the CB1 receptors located throughout your brain and central nervous system. CB1 receptor targeting generates a euphoric high as well as various advantages such as anti-inflammation, pain alleviation, sleep promotion, and general health and wellness. Thus, HHC's effects are frequently described as similar to THC.

Is HHC safe to use? 

Although research on the safety of HHC is limited, nothing indicates it is more dangerous than THC. Unlike THC, HHC is relatively new and the amount of knowledge we have about it is limited. That said, we recommend that all our users start with the minimum dose – especially for new users.

Europe

In general, most European countries have not specifically listed HHC as a controlled substance, meaning that it is not prohibited to possess or use it for personal use. However, it is important to note that laws and regulations regarding cannabinoids can vary significantly between countries and even between regions within the same country. It is therefore advisable to research the specific laws and regulations regarding HHC in the country or region where you are located or where you plan to use it.
