Cannabidiols are getting more and more attention from people all around the world. Countries that have allowed the use of cannabis and its products are seeing growth in the demand for cannabinoids. The leading cause of this can be the “high” effect that it provides its users with.
This effect is mainly due to its characteristics as a psychoactive substance. This characteristic is not a surprise as the plant that its main component gets extracted from is Cannabis Sativa itself. But the foremost concentrated amounts of Delta 8 THC are manufactured from the main hemp-derived cannabidiol.
Delta 8 is also known to provide many after-effects other than the feel of “high”. These effects include:
- Relief in pain
- Relief from headache
- Ease in sleep
- Relief from anxiety and other mental stress.
We all know that many children are suffering from such conditions at very early ages, and this can make delta 8, or even CBD flower, a good medicine for your children. But before letting your children get near your delta eight stashes, know some factors about it that are stated below.
1. It is Not FDA Approved
FDA approves the food items or any other sellable product that is safe for the consumption of human beings of any age. The FDA has not approved any Delta 8 products until today to be safe for consumption, either for adults or children. This is primarily because of how it is marketed to the public, which puts their health at risk.
2. Adversely Reported
Delta 8 is usually one of the mildest cannabidiols that barely do anything to the human body when consumed in safe or regular doses. But many people consume a lot of its amount to get an even more “high” feeling and for more extended periods. Children are prone to be reckless and can do the same without thinking about their after-effects.
3. Risk of Getting Caught
Unlike other milder cannabidiols, such as CBD, delta 8 THC consists of enough THC that if your child gets tested for the drug after its consumption, then by most chances, they will get caught. This can endanger their academic as well as social careers at a very young age.
4. Risk of Hazardous Chemicals
Since Delta 8 is very mild and is contained in low amounts by hemp, to make it in sellable quantities, many additional substances are used to convert it into such large quantities. They are also made in uncontrolled and unsanitary environments, making the product harmful and hazardous for your children.
5. Advice to Keep it Out of Reach
Most cannabidiol products are made in various attractive types, such as gummies, cookies, cupcakes, chocolates, etc. These items are numerously told to be considered fatal by poison control centres and are advised to be kept away from pets and children by any means.
As suggested by most of the information above, you should keep Delta 8 products away from your children as much as possible.
