Delta 8
Delta-8 is a chemical found in very small amounts in the cannabis plants. Because it occurs naturally in such small amounts, the delta-8 found in commercial products is usually synthetically made from CBD or delta-9 THC.
Delta-8 is a type of THC, which is the psychoactive compound in the cannabis sativa plant.
While CBD and hemp don’t have enough psychoactive compounds to get users “high,” they do contain trace amounts of delta-8 THC. The THC can be extracted from these legal sources and sold along with other legal cannabis products. While delta-8 THC is extracted from legal CBD and hemp, it has similar effects on the mind as the more common THC compound called “delta-9 THC.”
Delta 9
Delta-9 or delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol is a compound in the cannabis plant that causes users to experience a “high.”
Δ 9-THC acid is extracted from cannabis flowers using a first organic solvent, then separated using a second aqueous solvent. Δ 9-THC acid is converted to Δ 9-THC carboxylic salt before being extracted by a third organic solvent and converted back to Δ 9-THC carboxylic acid.
Delta 9 is significantly more potent than Delta 8. Some experts believe it to be about twice as powerful overall. Side effects are more severe with Delta 9, including paranoid delusions, mental cloudiness, motor impairment, and anxiety.
