HHC Edibles (50mg - 99mg)

HHC Edibles & The H is for HIGH

HHC edibles are a delicious way to satisfy your sweet tooth and HHC cravings all at once! First found in the 1940s, HHC is a milder version of some of your favorites, including delta 8 and delta 9. This exciting (and federally legal) cannabinoid was recently rediscovered by bored stoners during lockdown, and you won’t want to miss out on its gnarly benefits—especially in edible form!

What Is HHC?

Hexahydrocannabinol, or HHC for short, is one of over a hundred different cannabinoids found in hemp and cannabis plants. As the hemp market boomed following the 2018 Farm Bill, which legalized the distribution and consumption of all hemp-derived products, suppliers across the country began searching for the next major cannabinoid. Recently, HHC has emerged as one of the most promising and newest cannabinoids on the market.

Technically speaking, HHC is a hydrogenated form of THC. Although it is a naturally occurring compound, it is only present in trace concentrations, similar to its relative, delta 8. In order to obtain usable amounts of HHC, our scientists use a meticulous process that involves saturating THC with hydrogen atoms under high pressure and with the use of a catalyst.

This process breaks THC's double bond chemical structure and replaces it with hydrogen, while preserving the cannabinoid's psychoactive and physical effects. The result is an increase in THC's binding affinity for endocannabinoid receptors (Cb1 and CB2).

Additionally, this molecular change in THC’s structure makes it much more durable. While THC quickly loses potency when exposed to air, HHC doesn’t. The cannabinoid is also remarkably resistant to heat and UV light, so if you’re worried about getting stoned during the apocalypse (or at your local roller rink), this is the durable cannabinoid for you!

Is It Safe?

Preliminary research suggests that HHC has a safety profile similar to that of THC, with comparable benefits and side effects. Some sources even suggest that HHC may have pain-relieving properties, although further research is needed to confirm this potential benefit.

Some benefits of HHC include energetic euphoria and enhanced relaxation, while potential side effects include:

• Anxiety
• Paranoia
• Dizziness
• Increased heart rate
• Dry mouth
• Red eyes

What Are HHC Edibles?

With HHC’s recent rise to fame, it’s only logical that consumers have questions about all the different ways to take (and toke) this exciting new cannabinoid. While some prefer the reliability of HHC carts or the convenience of HHC disposable vapes, those looking for a sweet, buzzy treat are keen on HHC edibles.

HHC edibles, as the name may suggest, are just edible treats infused with HHC. Here at Diamond, we offer a variety of edibles, including our famous HHC gummies. These delicious gummies combine all the sweetness of your favorite childhood candy and the thrilling buzz of HHC.

A well-documented issue when purchasing HHC edibles is their safety and purity. Because hemp isn’t regulated, retailers aren’t required to test their products and sometimes take advantage of unaware customers. This means that doing your research is absolutely crucial for a safe and positive HHC experience.

Here at Diamond CBD, all of our products undergo testing by third-party labs to ensure maximum quality, safety, and effectiveness, and all of our test results are available on our website for your peace of mind!

How Do HHC Edibles Work?

While smoking or vaping HHC may deliver a much faster high, HHC edibles take their sweet time kicking in, to take their sweet time coming down.

The effects of vaping HHC may start to arise within minutes of taking a hit, and last a couple of hours at most. This is because ingesting HHC into your lungs allows it to enter your bloodstream quickly and be metabolized correspondingly. After munching on HHC edibles, on the other hand, you need to wait for your stomach to digest and process the treat as it breaks down the HHC and allows it to enter your bloodstream via the liver.

It may take anywhere between half an hour to a few hours for HHC edibles to fully kick in, but when they do, expect them to have you up in the sky for anywhere from 2 to 6 hours, depending on dosage.

Speaking of dosage, it’s important to remember that there is no universal perfect dosage for cannabis products. What feels good to you depends wholly on your own body, and no one knows your body quite like you, so finding your HHC sweet spot might take some trial and error. When in doubt, it’s best to start low and slow and build your way up to the perfect high.

Remember: You can always take more HHC, but once you go overboard, there’s no going back!

So, What’s My Dosage?

Oftentimes, HHC dosage can be based off of delta 8 dosages due to their close similarities:

• Low dose for beginners: 10-20 mg
• Medium dose for casual users: 20-50 mg
• Heavy dose for regular users: 50-100+ mg

Here at Diamond, our HHC edibles dosages range from 25-50 mg per gummy, so if it’s your first time trying out HHC, or you simply want a lighter, more manageable dose, you can always eat half a gummy and see how you feel (while preserving your stash!).

HHC vs. Other Cannabinoids

So, now you’re in on HHC's wacky nature, but how does it compare to other cannabinoids like CBD, delta 8, and delta 10?

HHC vs. CBD

The key difference between HHC and CBD is that HHC is a psychoactive compound, while CBD is not. CBD is often used to alleviate a range of physical and mental health issues, including insomnia and pain, without causing any mind-altering effects. On the other hand, HHC can produce psychoactive effects and is often used for its potential therapeutic benefits, but with the bonus that it may cause a "high" sensation.

To put it plainly, while CBD has a plethora of wellness benefits, it won’t get you high. HHC, on the other hand, does a great job of getting you high!

HHC vs. Delta 8

Delta 8 and HHC are highly similar in terms of both their potential benefits and side effects. According to some sources, HHC's potency lies somewhere between delta 8 and delta 9. All three compounds share similar psychotropic effects, such as euphoria, relaxation, dry mouth, and increased appetite.

The primary difference between delta 8 and HHC is their chemical structure. While delta 8 has double bonds, HHC has hydrogen molecules in their place, due to the hydrogenation process from THC. Despite this difference, both compounds remain federally legal because they originate from the same low-THC cannabis plant, hemp.

HHC vs. Delta 10

Delta 10 is known to produce an energizing and focused psychoactive experience, while HHC users report a more mild and relaxing high. Although both compounds are minor cannabinoids and are relatively new to the market, there is currently limited research available on their specific effects and benefits.

What Are the Benefits of HHC Edibles?

While the benefits of HHC include appetite boosts, waves of euphoria, and feelings of total relaxation, the benefits of ingesting it in edible form specifically may vary.

For starters, our edibles are absolutely delicious. Treating yourself to a little something sweet while simultaneously getting a buzz like no other should never be taken for granted. Another great benefit of HHC edibles is their discretion. While our funky packaging would certainly be a head-turner if you pulled it out of your bag in a public place, you can always pop a few edibles into an unlabeled plastic bag and get a buzz on the go without raising suspicion.

A more obvious upside to edibles is their potency: the high from edibles usually lasts multiple hours, and depending on dosage, it can last almost a full day! Although it might be a bummer to have to wait for the edible to bypass your digestive system, your patience will be rewarded richly!

Do HHC Edibles Show Up On A Drug Test?

A curious factoid about HHC is that some research indicates that it doesn’t convert into 11-hydroxy-THC like its cousins, delta 8 and delta 9. 11-hydroxy-THC is a common drug test metabolite, and interestingly enough, many HHC consumers also recount testing negative on drug tests after consuming the cannabinoid.

Experts have not conducted enough research into HHC to confirm or deny these claims, though, so the evidence for HHC’s ability to sneak past drug tests is all hearsay. It’s still best not to bet your career on anecdotal evidence; if you know you have a test coming up, act accordingly!
