THCA and THC are two similar terms widely used in the cannabis community, but many consumers are unsure what they actually stand for. Here are the differences and similarities of THCA and THC, and how they can impact the cannabis experience. Chemical Structure of Cannabis Cannabis plants consist of cannabinoids, which are the main chemical compounds responsible for producing psychoactive and non-psychoactive effects. Once consumed, cannabinoids interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS), made up of two primary receptors: CB1 and CB2. The main difference between THCA and THC is that one is a raw form, while the other is an active form. Tetrahydrocannabinolic Acid (THCA) Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid, or THCA, is an acidic cannabinoid that can be found in raw cannabis plants and hemp. Raw THCA won’t get you high, as this type of cannabinoid is not intoxicating, but it changes its form through the process of decarboxylation. The process of decarboxylation is triggered by heat, turning THCA into THC, a psychoactive compound. This can include smoking, vaping, or any form of heating (cooking or baking edibles). THCA Consumption Methods There are numerous THCA products available, depending on your preference, with THCA flower, pre-rolls, and concentrates being the most popular....
