Best Ways to Consume Cannabis: A Comprehensive Guide for Beginners

April 1, 2023

As the legalization of cannabis continues to spread across the US, more and more people are becoming interested in trying it for the first time. However, with so many different ways to consume cannabis, it can be difficult to know where to start. In this guide, we’ll take a look at the best ways to consume cannabis for beginners.

 

Section 1: Smoking

Smoking cannabis is the most common way to consume it. It involves inhaling the smoke produced by burning the dried flowers or leaves of the cannabis plant. While smoking is a fast-acting method of consumption, it can be harsh on the lungs and throat, and it may not be suitable for those with respiratory issues.

 

Section 2: Vaping

Vaping involves heating the cannabis flowers or concentrates to a temperature that produces vapor but not smoke. This method is less harsh on the lungs than smoking and may be a good option for those who want a fast-acting method of consumption without the harshness of smoking.

 

Section 3: Edibles

Edibles are cannabis-infused foods and beverages, such as brownies, gummies, and teas. They are a popular option for those who don’t want to smoke or vape cannabis. However, edibles can take longer to take effect and may have a more potent and long-lasting effect than smoking or vaping.

 

Section 4: Tinctures

Tinctures are liquid extracts of cannabis that are taken sublingually (under the tongue) or added to food or drinks. They are a discreet and easy way to consume cannabis and may be a good option for those who want a precise dose and a fast-acting method of consumption.

There are many different ways to consume cannabis, and choosing the right method depends on your preferences and needs. By considering the pros and cons of each method, you can find the best way to consume cannabis for you. Whether you prefer smoking, vaping, edibles, or tinctures, always remember to start with a low dose and wait for the effects to kick in before consuming more.
