You may be wondering, "What is HHC? "

CBD has been talked about as having various effects, but many people have heard that HHC is dangerous.

Therefore, in this article, I would like to thoroughly explain the characteristics, dangers and substitutes of HCC.

Summary of this article
  • On March 7, 2022, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare promulgated HHC as a designated drug, prohibiting the manufacture, import, sale, possession, and use of HHC.
  • HHC-O can be expected to support the conditioning of the body.

What is HHC? | Explain why it became a designated drug!

HHC

What is HHC?

HHC is a hydrogenated derivative of THC and CBD, which is like a mixture of phytocannabinoids and synthetic cannabinoids.

The amount naturally produced in plants is very small and most of them are chemically synthesized HHC products.

And HHC is said to have the same effect as THC.


HHC is dangerous

HHC can pose a health hazard.

Inhaling HHC can cause cannabis to cause you to get high and unsteady on your feet .

Therefore , it is said that taking a large amount of HHC has an effect similar to THC , and HHC is recognized as dangerous due to its effects.


Why HHC became a designated drug

HHC

THC is a psychoactive compound.

Our body has two types of cannabinoid receptors.

THC primarily binds to receptors in the brain to control pain, mood, and other emotions. That's why THC is said to bring about a so-called high.


Cannabis is recognized as a controlled substance in many countries and regions, and it is also designated as a designated drug in Japan.


According to a ministerial ordinance promulgated by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare on March 7, 2022, HHC has become a designated drug and its manufacture, import, sale, possession, and use are prohibited.

The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare will begin to regulate many cannabis-related products. Due to the frequent occurrence of accidents caused by dangerous drugs, it is expected that the government will continue to crack down on products that affect psychotropic effects.


I think that new ingredients will appear in the future, just like "HCC", but let's not take anything that is highly illegal.


Explain the disadvantages of illegal HHC!

cannabinoids

Although HHC is not as potent as THC, HHC has a wide range of effects.



HHC is a less common cannabinoid, so it's not as well known as THC.

However, it may have a similar effect.



When you smoke or consume HHC, the compound enters your bloodstream and reaches your brain. Tell a specific neuron to fire. Binds to CB1 receptors to elevate mood.



Side effects of HHC, depending on body chemistry and dosage, can induce symptoms such as:


  • anxiety and paranoia
  • sleepiness
  • nausea and upset stomach
  • dry mouth
  • Dry eye
  • Response to sound and light
  • Low blood pressure
  • lethargy

As you can see, there are many side effects of HHC, so be careful.


Explanation of legal HHC-O to replace HHC!

HHC-O

HHC-O is a legal alternative to HHC and has similar effects.

HHC-O is a new hemp-derived cannabinoid extracted from hemp using a clean manufacturing process.

HHC-O is a hydrogenated compound that binds to different receptors than regular hemp cannabinoids.



In other words, HHC-O is created by adding acetic anhydride to HHC.

This encourages the body's cannabinoid receptors to bind more fully, triggering more potent effects.


In addition, HHC can be further stabilized by making it a hydride compound, so it is safe.


No matter how stabilized the substance, side effects exist.

The side effects of HHC-O are mainly like this.


  • anxiety
  • dizzy
  • dry mouth
  • increase appetite
  • insomnia
  • paranoia
  • increased heart rate
  • bloodshot eyes

It is similar to the side effects of THC, but it seems that such side effects do not occur when actually ingested.


HHC-O is said to be more effective than HHC.

HHC-O lasts longer and is more powerful.

However, HHC-O does not have clear evidence regarding its long-term efficacy and safety at this stage , so please consider this when purchasing.

Also, there are cases where poor quality HHC-O and counterfeit HHC-O are sold, so it is recommended to buy from a shop you can trust.

Many people do not have a very good image of CBD as a legal product related to cannabis. However, CBD can be expected to have various effects.

What is CBD?

CBD is a chemical found in the cannabis sativa plant, also known as cannabis or hemp, which is highly safe and approved by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. CBD is derived from hemp. This is a type of Cannabis sativa plant.


CBD does not have strong psychotropic effects like THC, and many CBD products are legally traded in Japan.

CBD has few side effects

person who smokes

CBD is a natural chemical found in the cannabis sativa plant that has few side effects and is licensed by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. Unlike THC, which gives you a "high" when used, CBD is not psychoactive.


Now let’s take a look at the benefits that you can expect from consuming CBD.


CBD acts on the hypothalamus!

CBD is believed to act on the hypothalamus.

The reason is that the endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a complex neurochemical network in the body that regulates various bodily functions such as emotions, pain and sleep.


The word “cannabinoid” in the ECS name refers to the active ingredients of the Cannabis sativa plant that affect the ECS. While the ECS naturally releases endocannabinoid molecules, it is said that external sources of cannabinoids such as CBD can affect the body via the ECS.


The hypothalamus plays a role in several sleep-related functions, such as regulation of body temperature and sleep patterns.
