Things to Consider

These snacks are definitely not like your regular snacks. They contain potent THC that can induce a high and trigger adverse side effects as well.

While these may be yummy snacks you will want to take your fill of, you need to dose carefully, especially if you’re a newbie to cannabis edibles. Only eat small portions of these cannabis edibles.

Remember, too, that cannabis edibles take some time before you can feel any effects. If there’s no effect after two hours, you can slightly increase your dosage. Likewise, you need to cut back on your dosage if the effects become too uncomfortable.

However, once you get the right dosage that can control your symptoms, you will find that its therapeutic effects last longer compared to smoking or vaping cannabis.
