Do cannabis edibles get you high?
Cannabis edibles contain THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, which is a psychoactive compound in the cannabis plant. THC interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system to create feelings of euphoria, altered perception, and deep relaxation—what’s known colloquially as a “high.” Individual experience varies depending on how much THC you consume in an edible, frequency of use, and individual tolerance levels. For the most positive effect, remember to start with a low dose and allow at least two hours for effects to kick in.
