THCa is safe, as it does not produce psychoactive effects unless it is heated.
THCa is found in raw cannabis and is often consumed in juices, tinctures, or capsules. This natural substance has anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects. It does not produce a high like THC.
It is important to note that if THCa is heated, it converts to THC, the psychoactive compound in cannabis. Smoking or vaporizing THCa can lead to the same psychoactive effects as THC, which can be harmful. Inhaling any smoke can cause respiratory issues, irritation, and long-term lung damage.
The process of smoking can introduce toxins and carcinogens into the body. This negates any benefit THCa might offer when consumed in its raw form.
For anyone who has a history of respiratory issues or lung problems, smoking THCa is not for you. The act of smoking can exacerbate pre-existing conditions, leading to severe complications and further lung damage. We strongly advise anyone with a history of smoking-related issues to avoid smoking THCa.
