HHC for Inflammation
HHC and THC produce comparable outcomes in the body as other cannabinoids.
Cannabinoids interact with your endocannabinoid framework, a complex organic organisation of receptors, endocannabinoids, and proteins. Your body’s homeostasis, or state of health, is maintained by each component.
The cannabinoid 1 (CB1) receptors in your brain and central nervous system are specifically targeted by HHC and THC. Targeting the CB1 receptor results in a euphoric high as well as a number of benefits, including relief from pain and inflammation, improved sleep quality, and improved overall health and wellness.
THC binds to CB receptors as well, but it has a much higher affinity than HHC for the CB1 receptor. Because of this, THC delivers a more potent high. Your brain’s communication pathways are also altered when THC binds to the CB1 receptor, which can result in short and long-term changes in brain function.
