The Effen Gee said:I don't know about that...plain ingested cannabis WILL have an effect. There's a whole lot more stuff in "Weed" than just THC d-9. Usually more than 5 to 6 hundred depending on the strain. Sativa has more THC content than indica.
If you eat plain unground bud I am certain you will feel SOMETHING. But effects from THC...negative.
I am currently looking for the information I had when overgrow.com was still alive. I read a few different studies done in the US and another done by an international board. The studies proved that in fact THC does have to be heated, which converts it to a form the body can dissolve. THC alone, when properly extracted can resemble a heavy petroleum product, like tar almost. This substance is literally passed through your digestive system.
Regardless of the origin of the peanut butter it really does not make a diffrence. ALL peanuts have large amounts of fat in them. Ever seen one burn?
As soon as I can (If I can) locate the hard data or even a article I will post ti immediately to remove some doubt that I see here.
Even the ancients knew you had to heat Hashish to properly use it in an edible form. Moroccans for the most part still use heat in the hashmaking processes of old.
...and there is no need for the harsh talk here buddy. Plain and simple...some people just do not feel intoxicated, high, fuzzy or lightheaded from edibles. My brother and cousin are perfect examples. Yet my friend/associate cannot ingest cannabis, he immediately starts vomiting...but he can almost smoke anyone under the table.
Perhaps the fact that no two humans are the same can ease such rigidity.
Excellent post. And I would love to see that article if you find it. I also believe that we don't know all there is to know about thc and the other cannabinoids found in mj......or anything else for that matter. I think it's important to keep an open mind when learning and not convince ourselves that we 'know it all'.
I have read many sources that say heat destroys the thc molecule, but how does that reconcile with vaporizing it or burning it up with a lighter? I use a vaporizer that gets very hot and it visibly vaporizes my dope, yet I still get high. Same thing with bong hits...I hold a flame right up against the bud and burn it, but I still manage to get baked. Why doesn't the heat from the lighter or the vaporizer destroy the thc molecule?
