With our delta 8 CBD edibles, vapes, oils, drinks, and capsules, you can enjoy the benefits of both compounds in one product—you know what they say, double the cannabinoid, double the fun!

You may be wondering why combining delta 8 and CBD is such a good idea; what benefits could combining delta 8 and CBD have that you can’t find in other products?

These two insanely popular hemp-derived cannabinoids may have some similar qualities, but generally offer dissimilar vibes. With CBD, you get all the benefits of the compound without having to worry about it messing with your mind; with delta 8 on the other hand, you can enjoy the cannabinoid’s perks while simultaneously getting a mild, warm buzz.

When combined, however, this dynamic duo sets off on an awesome quest inside your body to mellow you out: mind, body, and soul. Through a process known as the “entourage effect”, delta 8 and CBD work to complement each other to give you the truly perfect buzz, but we’ll dive deeper into that later.

What Is Delta 8?

Delta 8, or delta-8-tetrahydrocannabinol, is a psychoactive compound found in cannabis plants. Much like its older cousin delta 9, delta 8 makes for a fun psychotropic experience. As a matter of fact, delta 8 users usually report feelings of euphoria and relaxation without the customary side effects associated with delta 9, such as paranoia and anxiety.

Unlike delta 9, however, delta 8 has a lot less THC, and therefore is much milder. Also unlike delta 9, delta 8 isn’t naturally found in large amounts, so our scientists go through a rigorous growing and extraction process to create the safest, most high-quality delta 8 from hemp for your enjoyment.

The Differences Between Delta 8 & CBD

While delta 8 works hard to mellow you out and give you a nice, controllable buzz, CBD focuses mainly on providing bodily benefits. These compounds may have some similarities, but the real benefit of using them together comes from their differences and how these complement each other.

The main difference between cannabidiol, or CBD, and delta 8 is the fact that CBD contains no psychoactive properties while delta 8 is known for mild psychotropic fun. While this aspect is what most people focus on when comparing the two compounds, the analysis shouldn’t stop there.

Delta 8’s properties are more focused on the mind, including relaxation, euphoria, and in some cases, even preventing seizures. On the other hand, CBD boosts your mood, supports restful sleep, and relieves some forms of chronic pain.

A clearer picture of the differences (and similarities) of the two compounds can be found below:

Benefits of CBD

• Anti-inflammatory
• Anxiety relief
• Anti-nausea
• Pain relief
• Mood booster
• Better sleep
• No psychoactive experience

Benefits of Delta 8

• Relaxation
• Anxiety relief
• Euphoria
• Appetite-stimulating
• Better sleep
• Mild psychoactive experience 

Why Delta 8 CBD Are a Match Made in Hemp-ven

As previously mentioned, delta 8 and CBD work to heighten each other’s qualities in a phenomenon known as the “entourage effect”. This Hollywood-reminiscent phenomenon unique to cannabis makes each cannabinoid react a little differently once they enter your body; by highlighting the good qualities in the other compound, delta 8 and CBD create a pretty neat effect once mixed together.

First coined by Dr. Raphael Mechoulam in 1998, the “entourage effect” proposes that all compounds in cannabis play a role in the plant’s effects—this means that they cooperate in synergy to make each other better. Therefore, combining delta 8 and CBD doesn’t only make them a lot more powerful, but it also allows them to bind better to our bodies so we can enjoy cannabis to its full extent.

In one study, for example, researchers sought to compare the effects of pure THC versus a mixture of THC and CBD on pain. They found that the patients given the CBD and THC combination reported much less pain than those given only THC. Due to delta 8’s close proximity to delta 9 (THC), we can infer that the same principle can be applied to delta 8 and CBD.

Delta 8 is mellow and relaxing. CBD soothes the body and eases pain. When combined, CBD will reduce the high caused by delta 8, but delta 8 will boost feelings of euphoria and relaxation. Both together may be better than either alone, but it all depends on how you use them.

For Delightful Dosing 

While you can combine individual products containing delta 8 with products containing CBD, the easier (and cheaper) way to enjoy the benefits of both compounds is to get delta 8 CBD products—aka, products that already contain both cannabinoids.

Dosing can be especially tricky when combining two different products, as variables like concentration, product type, and effect time can vary. If you eat CBD edibles and take a hit from a delta 8 disposable vape, for example, you might have a hard time planning out the amount of time it will take for the effects of each to kick in, as well as the amount of time the effects will last.

Being mindful of which formulas to use in order to get a desirable effect is certainly doable, but the bottom line is it’s infinitely easier to use one product that combines both CBD and delta 8.

Delta 8 CBD products offer you the best of both worlds from this match made in heaven, without the hassle of putting on your lab coat and taking out your calculator to figure out how to match dosages, products, and time frames. By letting us nerd out and do all the work for you, you get a safe, enjoyable delta 8 CBD experience without complicating things (or proving your middle school math teacher who insisted that “math is forever” right).

As with any other cannabis product, it’s always best to start low and slow if you’re a beginner at layering CBD and delta 8. This gives you the opportunity to build up to the perfect, gentle high instead of being thrust into the unwanted.

For delta 8, dosages usually vary depending on what type of user you are:

• Beginners should start with 5-15mg
• Occasional users should try 15-45mg
• Regulars can take anywhere between 45-150mg

For CBD, it’s recommended that you start at around 20mg and go up from there depending on what feels good and comfortable.

But remember, you’re combining two different cannabinoids, and if you’re new to layering these two compounds, it’s always best to start small and build your way up, even if you’re a regular at taking them separately.
