Hexahydrocannabinol (HHC) is a hemp derived cannabinoid similar to Delta 8 THC and just like Delta 8 THC, HHC is naturally occurring in the cannabis plant, but in very small amounts. This means HHC needs to be further derived from the plants in a lab setting by skilled chemists. This gives chemists a sizable amount of HHC to work with, and ensures HHC products are pure and safe from potentially harmful chemicals.
Although they are structurally different, naturally occurring HHC and THC act similarly to each other. Both are hemp derived cannabinoids and comparatively HHC (made from hemp derived CBD) is commonly reported to have effects in between those experienced when using Delta 8 THC and Delta 9 THC. Users often report a more energetic and euphoric feeling than Delta 8 THC with less paranoia in comparison to Delta 9 THC.
