What's The Difference?
Understanding THCV, D8THC, D9THC, HHC, THCP, and CBN.
THCV: The Energetic Enhancer
THCV, or Tetrahydrocannabivarin, is a cannabinoid known for its stimulating properties. Unlike its more famous counterparts, THCV is reputed to provide a clear-headed, energetic effect, often without the intense psychoactive experience associated with THC. THCV can be an excellent choice for those seeking increased focus, reduced appetite, and an overall sense of upliftment without the heavy sedative effects.
D8THC: The Gentle Giant
Delta-8 THC (D8THC) is a milder cousin of Delta-9 THC, the most well-known psychoactive cannabinoid. D8THC offers a more subdued experience, providing relaxation and comfort without the intense high associated with Delta-9. This makes it perfect for individuals looking for mild psychoactive effects alongside benefits like stress relief and improved sleep.
D9THC: The Classic Experience
Delta-9 THC (D9THC) is the traditional form of THC known for its potent psychoactive properties. D9THC delivers the classic cannabis experience, including strong euphoric effects, heightened senses, and in some cases, increased creativity. They are ideal for those seeking the full strength of THC's impact, whether for recreational use or to manage conditions like pain and insomnia.
HHC: The Novel Sensation
Hexahydrocannabinol (HHC) is a hydrogenated form of THC, offering a unique twist on the traditional THC experience. HHC is known for its stability and longevity, providing effects that are similar to THC but often with a slightly different feel. Users report a balanced blend of mental and physical effects, making HHC an intriguing option for those exploring the nuances of cannabinoid effects.
THCP: The Potent Powerhouse
Tetrahydrocannabiphorol (THCP) is a newly discovered cannabinoid that is believed to be significantly more potent than Delta-9 THC. THCP could provide a powerful psychoactive experience, potentially offering profound effects even in small doses. Due to its potency, THCP is best suited for experienced users looking for an intense experience or those with high tolerance levels.
CBN: The Relaxation Station
Cannabinol (CBN) is a cannabinoid known for its calming properties. Often found in aged cannabis, CBN is associated with sedative effects, making CBN is a popular choice for those seeking to improve sleep quality or unwind after a stressful day. Unlike THC, CBN does not have significant psychoactive effects, making it an attractive option for users looking for relaxation without the high.

Endocannabinoid System
Cannabinoid's role in promoting homeostasis is crucial. These compounds aid our body in achieving a balanced state, ensuring everything functions harmoniously. Unlike THC, CBD doesn’t induce any intoxicating effects. Instead, it works seamlessly with our ECS.
For effective results, CBD must be absorbed into our bloodstream. This interaction with the ECS plays a pivotal role in our overall well-being. The ECS consists of CB1 and CB2 receptors, with CBD majorly binding to CB2 receptors. These receptors communicate with various cells, tissues, and organs, ensuring a harmonious relationship.
The Origins of CBD
CBD comes primarily from hemp, a plant selectively bred to ensure low THC levels. By federal regulations, industrial hemp should have less than 0.3% THC, allowing users to enjoy the benefits of CBD without the psychoactive effects of THC. CBD is just one type of phytocannabinoid, naturally occurring cannabinoids found in plants. On the other hand, our body produces endocannabinoids.
The Full Spectrum
The Cannabis sativa plant doesn't just offer CBD; it has a plethora of phytocannabinoids. These compounds can be grouped based on their structure. THCV, THCP, D8THC, and D9THC gummies each have their own effects.
Understanding Hemp & CBD Oil
There's often confusion between hemp oil and CBD oil. While CBD oil specifically contains cannabidiol, hemp oil is a broader term. It could mean anything from oils extracted from hemp seeds, which contain no cannabinoids, to full-spectrum products rich in various cannabinoids. Spyglass Wellness takes pride in its Superior Full and Broad Spectrum formulas, ensuring a consistent and quantifiable blend of minor cannabinoids, and terpenes. Imagine it like comparing pure vitamin C to orange juice – one is isolated, while the other is a mix of beneficial compounds.
