Discovered by Italian researchers, THC-P is one of the hemp plants' many cannabinoids. Its structure is incredibly similar to Delta-9 THC, which is the primary psychoactive component in cannabis. However, THCP doesn't have the same binding properties that Delta-9 does, creating different effects in the body.
THC-P is considered a minor cannabinoid and is only mildly psychoactive. The cannabinoid has a higher therapeutic value than psychoactive value, making it incredibly appealing to those looking for pain relief and comfort. You’ll find THC-P in low amounts within both hemp and marijuana plants, but it’s best when extracted. Extracting THC-P allows consumers to better focus on and embrace the potency of the cannabinoid’s effects, as its natural levels are so low.
