Delta 8 THC was a relatively little known cannabinoid up until recently, but it’s been making quite a name for itself in the past several months among seasoned cannabis enthusiasts. It is very similar in structure to delta-9 THC, the primary active ingredient of marijuana, but it has a much milder effect. Although it does have potential to get users high, delta 8 THC generally induces a much more mellow, relaxing experience.
