Edibles - Orally Ingested Cannabis

Foods and beverages containing cannabis that are swallowed and ingested then metabolized in multiple passes, meaning a lower bioavailability but longer duration of effects. Perfect for those dealing with a lot of pain or sleep issues. Once, ingested they can take anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 hours or longer for onset.

Edibles can come in a wide variety of forms from gummies to chocolates to cookies and even savory items, although you are likely to find a limited type at dispensaries, typically in candy forms. Edibles can be made using a variety of extractions as the input or cannabis ingredient. Commercially, often distillates or isolates are used due to consistency and quality control factors. Homemade edibles are usually lipid or fat extractions, using butter or oils to extract the cannabinoids. The variety of cannabis edibles is also limitless for the home cook, who are not restricted to commercial regulations.
