THCV

THCV (Tetrahydrocannabivarin) is a lesser-known but powerful cannabinoid that’s gaining attention for its unique properties and potential health benefits. Often described as the "dietary cannabinoid," THCV is distinctive not only because of its molecular structure but also for how it interacts with the body, offering a completely different experience from other cannabinoids like THC and CBD.

Certain cannabis strains naturally contain THCV, a compound similar to Delta-9 THC but with a shorter alkyl side chain that affects its binding to cannabinoid receptors. This leads to unique effects based on the dose. THCV offers a clear-headed, energetic high and is known for its potential to aid in appetite suppression, making it popular among those interested in weight management and metabolic health. Typically, THCV is present in low concentrations.
