There’s a new cannabinoid on the market, and while it might be the hardest to pronounce so far, it could be the easiest to enjoy.

Hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol, or HHC for short, is making waves as the latest legal high, since it’s both psychoactive and (most likely) federally legal.

And best of all, it’s making its way into a new delicious treat: HHC gummies!

If you’ve already had delta-8 or delta-10 gummies, you’re familiar with tasty edibles and their benefits. But whether you’re new to gummies, new to HHC, or both, here’s the guide for you!

What is HHC?

HHC is just now hitting the ears of both sellers and consumers alike, though it was actually created back in 1944, when chemist Roger Adams hydrogenated a sample of delta-9 THC.

This process incorporated hydrogen molecules, converting the THC into HHC, which is more stable and has a higher resistance to heat and light.

At that point in time, Adams used THC to create his HHC, but nowadays we can complete the hydrogenation process with industrial hemp, which is both low in THC and federally legal.

Ready to fall in love with gummies all over again? HHC gummies offer a delicious way to enjoy all the benefits of HHC, no matter where you find yourself.

Gummies are nothing new in the world of cannabis, but they never get old. Chewy, bouncy, and with a sweet fruity taste, HHC gummies are gummy treats that were made with an infusion of HHC.

Folks love HHC gummies for a wide variety of different reasons: some love them because they offer a steady effect that lasts, while others simply love the high that’s offered by an edible.

HHC gummies are also great on the go, and many users love having them for nights away from home where they struggle to sleep in an unfamiliar place. But of course, they’re also popular among those who just appreciate the recreational high.

How is HHC Made?

Getting more in-depth on how HHC is made, this cannabinoid is widely regarded as semi-synthetic, since it’s produced in a lab from an organic source, that source being industrial hemp.

To begin this process, molecules from hemp are sorted, and specific cannabinoids are isolated to evolve into HHC.

These cannabinoids are administered with a specific amount of hydrogen before they’re catalyzed with a metal such as platinum or palladium, which is later removed.

This catalyst helps speed up the reaction in the compound without damaging it. Once this process is complete, the chemical compound will be altered, turning it into HHC.

How Does HHC Affect Me?

Most consumers of HHC have described the effects of HHC to be quite similar to delta-9, which is the THC isomer commonly found in marijuana. As such, HHC is known to be psychoactive, and it can trigger a rush of euphoria to create a high.

Anecdotally, many users have reported that HHC helped them with easing into sleep, combatting stress, and soothing physical discomfort. Many have also said that, like delta-9, HHC helps stimulate appetite, which may be helpful to those who might have trouble eating throughout the day.

On top of that, HHC is known to possess antioxidant properties, which means it can help protect our bodies from free radical damage.

What’s even more interesting is that HHC is highly stable, which gives it a tremendous shelf life, so light users won’t have to stress out about using up all their HHC gummies before they expire.

How Potent is HHC?

With most cannabinoids on the market, we have a fairly solid idea when it comes to potency; for instance, we know that both delta-8 and delta-10 are about half as potent as delta-9.

However, the same can’t yet be said about HHC.

The reason for this is that when cannabinoids occur, the HHC molecules typically occur in two types: 9R, which binds to receptors in the body, and 9S, which has trouble doing so. In other words, HHC products with too many 9S molecules might not be as potent.

Additionally, HHC doesn’t appear to be as potent as delta-9, but if enough users take enough of it, they will begin to have a very similar type of high.

In other words, HHC may allow users to feel a very similar experience to that from delta-9, but they would need a higher dosage in order to achieve this effect, and at this point, the consensus is that HHC might be as much as 80% as potent as THC.

Is HHC Legal?

Laws regarding CBD and THC were nebulous to begin with, and HHC’s legal status only adds to the confusion.

We interpret HHC to be legal, based on the fact that HHC comes from hemp and not THC.

As long as HHC is in compliance with the 2018 Farm Bill, it should be fine, and HHC products of all kinds, including edibles, should be federally legal.

What’s more is that some might argue that HHC is not even synthetic, since it’s naturally found in the seeds and pollen of hemp.

Are HHC Gummies Safe?

As with any of the market’s latest cannabinoids, there is a lack of information detailing HHC’s long-term and short-term effects.

And just like with CBD and THC, there is no standard for determining one’s dosage.

But with the information we have so far, HHC appears to be a safe substance. The danger, however, comes from untrustworthy sellers.

Since hemp products are not regulated, retailers are not required to test their products, and take advantage of uninformed customers. That’s why it’s important to do your research when shopping for HHC gummies, and to make sure to buy from sellers that test all of their products through a third-party lab.

What is the Difference Between HHC and THC?

At this point, you might be thinking that HHC and THC are quite alike, because they are. Then how do we tell them apart?

For starters, the sourcing of HHC is different from traditional THC methods. Delta-9 is naturally abundant in some cannabis plants, while delta-8 and delta-10 can both be synthesized from CBD. HHC, on the other hand, can be isomerized or hydrogenated from THC, or it can even be made with the terpene citronellol.

While THC and HHC are structurally similar, they have a key difference. Isomers of THC are recognized by the placement of their double bond; for example, delta-8’s double bond is on the 8th carbon, while delta-9’s is on the ninth carbon, and so on. HHC, however, is different because it doesn’t have any double bonds at all, further distinguishing it from THC.

Will HHC Show Up on a Drug Test?

There’s been a claim floating around that HHC not only affects you like THC, but it will also keep you clear on a drug test.

And while theoretically this is not impossible, there is no evidence to prove that this claim is true.

While THC and HHC are structurally similar, they have a key difference. Isomers of THC are recognized by the placement of their double bond; for example, delta-8’s double bond is on the 8th carbon, while delta-9’s is on the ninth carbon, and so on. HHC, however, is different because it doesn’t have any double bonds at all, further distinguishing it from THC.

Side Effects of HHC Gummies

With all of HHC’s positive attributes, it is important to know that some side effects may potentially occur.

Typically, these side effects are temporary, but if they continue to persist, consult your doctor as soon as possible so that they can determine any serious issues.

How to Dose HHC Gummies

Before you take any HHC, it helps immensely to plan ahead and determine the correct dosage for your needs and preferences.

Quite often, the dosing of HHC is often determined with the rules for dosing delta-8, but this might lead to a bit of needless guesswork.

Every individual will have their own version of the right dosage, and this dosage will come down to metabolism, age, weight, and tolerance level, but generally, the ideal starting dose for HHC gummies is 5-12 mg, while more experienced users might need a higher dose of 30-60 mg.

With that in mind, though, these dosage ranges might not work for every user, and they are not official recommendations in any capacity.

Even if you’re experienced with delta-9 and delta-8, it’s important to remember that HHC is not the same thing as THC, and you might not get the reaction you’re used to. This is why when trying HHC you should always start small and listen to your body.

Where to Buy HHC Gummies?

At this point, there is still a heavy lack of reputable HHC gummy retailers, though many companies are gleaning an interest in this powerful cannabinoid.

Consumers should always stay wary when shopping online for hemp products since they’re unregulated, but HHC is especially new, so stay extra careful, and be choosy about who you shop from.

While many manufacturers are still deep in development, we’re one step ahead at JustDelta, where all of our HHC gummies are thoroughly tested by an independent lab and ready for you to safely enjoy.

HHC Gummies FAQs

HHC has built a reputation for creating a high that’s comparable to delta-9’s, though not quite as potent.

HHC is interpreted to be federally legal because it’s in compliance with the Farm Bill, which allows the selling and buying of hemp products as long as they contain less than delta-9 THC.

While HHC’s effects might be similar to THC, THC is still going to be the most potent cannabinoid.

HHC gummies are psychoactive, which means they can make users high.

HHC and THC are two different compounds, although HHC is sometimes made from a THC molecule.

While research is limited, there is nothing so far to demonstrate that HHC gummies are unsafe.

Depending on what you end up choosing, you can expect your HHC gummies to come in a variety of fruity flavors.

HHC gummies are not recommended for dogs.

HHC gummies are sought out for a number of reasons, but they’re becoming particularly popular for both recreational uses and managing physical discomfort.

Typically, HHC cannabinoids are derived from THC or cbd edibles denver through either isomerization or hydrogenation.

While the research on HHC is still in its infancy, there is nothing so far suggesting that HHC is a dangerous compound.

Currently, there’s an anecdotal claim going around that HHC gummies will not show up on a drug test, but this is not necessarily true. If you know you’re taking a drug test soon, it’s not worth it to try your luck.

We’re still unsure about the exact potency of HHC, but some believe it to be less potent than Delta-9, but more potent than Delta-8.

HHC is a semi-synthetic substance that can be sourced from hemp molecules.

HHC stands for hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol
