Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) is a naturally occurring cannabinoid in cannabis, distinct from THC due to its unique effects. Unlike THC’s typical munch-inducing quality, THCV is thought to suppress appetite. Moreover, THCV offers an energizing boost, enhancing focus and mood, setting it apart from THC’s more sedating effects. And with its low level of psychoactivity, don’t expect a strong high. Preliminary research also hints at potential anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. While both share a similar molecular structure, THCV’s nuanced effects make it a fascinating cannabinoid with the potential to offer distinct benefits that other cannabinoids can’t offer.
