What makes cannabis edibles hit stronger?
Individual metabolism and tolerance level play a big role in effect strength. But edibles also tend to be more potent, because the THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is converted to 11-hydroxy-THC in the liver. It’s a stronger compound with longer-lasting effects. You can try eating edibles alongside a fat source, like butter or chocolate, to boost the bioavailability of THC for stronger effects, but eating an edible on an empty stomach can also do the trick. Remember to be careful with dosing to avoid a negative experience.
