The Best Advice You Can Hear About Edibles

Read The Labels

The signs of overconsumption vary from person to person. Some will jump at the chance to eat as many edibles as they can get their hands on, while others might go into a state of shock once they feel the effects.

Regardless, it is always best to read the labels before you ingest an edible that contains marijuana. This ensures that you are aware of how long it takes for them to take effect and how strong the dosage is. Knowing what's in store for you before trying marijuana edibles gives you time to prepare yourself for all of its effects so that none are ever unexpected or unwelcomed!

Understand How Marijuana Affects Your Body

You need to know how marijuana affects your body. It's easy to say "know yourself" but it really means knowing how much marijuana it takes for you to feel the effects.

The idea behind edibles is always seductive. They're ingested so they take effect more slowly than smoking or vaporizing, giving users a smoother experience where getting giggly at inappropriate moments isn't likely. The high lasts longer and if done right, comes on gradually without being overwhelming. When familiar with them, people who don't care for the rapid high of smoking or the harshness of vaporizing can enjoy marijuana in a safer, more controlled way.

Take Edibles On A Full Stomach

A full stomach before consuming marijuana edibles is important because it will help prevent eating too many edibles. Being hungry can cause some serious munchies which lead to more consumption of the marijuana edible. Most people end up eating something they regret after being too hungry and thinking with their stomach instead of their heads. It would be wise to eat a meal, or at least have snacks on hand so that you won't over-consume your THC treat.

Marijuana edibles should not be taken on an empty stomach, lest you end up getting sick. Make sure to eat a meal filled with healthy fats and carbohydrates before ingesting marijuana edibles if possible. Not only will the food help ground the THC in your system, but it will also prevent an unpleasant experience that can put a damper on your day or evening.

Keep In Mind To Start Small

The most common piece of advice is to start small! Especially if this is your first time trying cannabis-infused foods, make sure you are aware of how much THC is contained in each serving so you know exactly how long until you feel its effects. Weighing out cannabis-infused butter or oil is the best way to ensure accurate dosage.

It is important to wait 2 hours before taking more THC. This will ensure that you feel the full effects of your first dose and prevent overconsumption! It's also good advice to stay hydrated and eat a healthy snack throughout the course of eating edibles. It would be good to drink water or juice and eat something healthy like pretzels or carrot sticks.

You should start with 10mg because some people may have an increased tolerance for marijuana edibles. People are always urged not to let cravings guide their decisions when snacking on the pot after eating it in food form. Additionally, people are discouraged from deciding to eat more edibles because they still don't feel the effects as strongly as they may like.

You should also remember never to mix alcohol and marijuana when trying edibles for the first time--they can cause unwanted side effects if mixed together so stick with just one until you know how each makes you feel.

Make Sure Nothing Big Is Going On The First Time You Try Edibles

The reason why it's important to make sure that you don't have anything big going on when trying out marijuana edibles for the first time is because of how this may affect your mind. It'll be a lot harder for you to think clearly and maintain a sense of control if something bad were to happen while you're under the influence of marijuana. If you want to safely try marijuana edibles, then it's best if you choose a day where there aren't any major stressful events happening like a work meeting for example.

There are already enough different things going on when you are trying marijuana edibles for the first time, so it's best not to have anything that could potentially put a damper on things. If you are having a bad day, then that will most likely carry over into the high that you experience which will make for an unpleasant afternoon.

Also, since edibles can take up to two hours before they start taking full effect it would be best not to plan something exciting during those two hours as your mind may wander and cause unneeded stress along with making those two hours seem like four.
