Instead of entering the body through the lungs, the active compounds in edibles travel through the digestive system, which delivers an effect that is generally more sustained than inhaled cannabis.

Cannabis edibles suit a wide range of consumers. Recreational users appreciate the smoke-free format and ease of dosing that edibles offer. Those who prefer a prolonged and calming experience often choose edibles over flower or concentrates. The category covers enough ground to work for both first-time cannabis consumers and longtime cannabis consumers.

It is important to understand that cannabis edibles produce variable results depending on the individual. Factors like body weight, metabolism, and prior cannabis experience play a role in determining how an edible hits.
