What is THCA?
THCA is a cannabinoid that is present in raw cannabis plants. It is the acidic precursor to THC and is converted into THC when exposed to heat or light, a process known as decarboxylation. This is why smoking or vaping cannabis flowers can produce a psychoactive effect, while consuming raw cannabis will not.
THCA is also unique in that it has a different chemical structure than THC. While THC contains a cyclic ring structure, THCA has a carboxylic acid group. This difference in structure can impact its potential effects on the body.
How to Use THCA Isolate
