HHC Now Available In Spring Texas

hhc and delta thc

HHC is to THC, what margarine is to butter. HHC stands for hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol. There are several isomers of this hydrogenated form of THC. By saturating the molecule with hydrogen atoms, the shelf-life of this cannabinoid is substantially extended without affecting the effect profile much. HHC is naturally occurring, but only in trace amounts in the pollen and seeds of hemp.

For companies to sell this cannabinoid, they’re going to need to make it in a lab. This compound is also much more resistant to improper storage or exposure to heat and UV light. HHC would make for almost the perfect cannabinoid because of how long it remains viable in storage. Delta 9 THC, the strongest natural-occurring form of THC, but it’s also the least stable. As it oxidizes, it loses hydrogen atoms and forms two new double bonds on its top ring structure. After that THC becomes CBN — which has only 10% of the psychoactivity of THC. The real benefit of this cannabinoid comes from its outstanding shelf-life, more so than its physical effects. It offers very similar benefits to THC but comes in a much more stable form.

Is HHC Legal?

There’s a lot of debate around the legality of cannabinoids like HHC or delta 8 THC. Companies that intend to sell HHC, such as Bearly Legal claim it’s entirely legal because it’s naturally occurring. However, like many of the other THC analogs, it doesn’t occur in any meaningful amounts in nature and therefore must be made in a lab in order to get any usable supply.

Specifically, HHC is made by hydrogenating THC. This process involves subjecting concentrated THC to high pressure, hydrogen, and a catalyst such as palladium. An older method outlined a process for converting CBD to 9α-OH-HHC, 8-OH-iso-HHC, and Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol using artificial gastric juice. There haven’t been many updates on this procedure since the initial article published in 2007.

Whether this constitutes a natural or synthetic compound is up for debate. If deemed natural, as long as the final product remains below the legal threshold of 0.3% delta 9 THC and the starting material is derived from hemp, it’s legal on a federal level.

The potential benefits of HHC include:

  • May help manage chronic pain
  • May reduce inflammation
  • May promote deeper, more restorative sleep
  • May alleviate nausea or vomiting
  • May alleviate anxiety (may also increase anxiousness)
  • Very long shelf life

What Are The Effects of HHC?

HHC has almost identical effects as THC. It produces feelings of euphoria and stimulation, altered visual and auditory perception, changes in heart rate and body temperature, and altered headspace and cognition. Many users report the effects of HHC are similar to that of delta 8 THC in terms of being more heavily weighted towards relaxation than stimulation. Think of Delta 10 as a sativa, Delta 8 as a hybrid, and HHC as a indica. HHC is more potent than delta 8 but slightly less potent than delta 9 THC. 

HHC is still very new, so there aren’t many studies available to evaluate its potential therapeutic effects — but so far, it seems this cannabinoid offers most of the same therapeutic effect profile as other forms of THC. There’s even been some animal testing that showed beta-HHC possesses notable painkilling effects when tested on rats. Plus there has been people smoking it on a daily basis with no reports of severe side-effects. With HHC, all the double bonds have been broken and replaced with hydrogen (AKA hydrogenation).
