Tag: Edible absorption

While traditional edibles must travel through the digestive system and liver before taking effect, it's a little-known fact that certain types of edibles can, in fact, be absorbed directly through the mouth's lining. This faster absorption route, known as sublingual or buccal delivery, offers a different experience with a quicker onset and distinct effects compared to standard ingestion.

Unlike inhalation, traditional cannabis edibles are known for their low bioavailability, with oral absorption of THC typically ranging from 4-20%. Understanding what helps absorb edibles and the factors that influence this process is crucial for a more predictable and effective experience.
