H4CBD: the new CBD?

Tetrahydrocannabidiol (H4CBD), often referred to as hydrogenated CBD or THD, is a hydrogenated form of CBD. H4CBD is 100 times more potent than CBD at the CB1 receptor and has stronger anti-inflammatory properties than CBD.

Can you get high after taking H4CBD?

H4CBD molecule

It’s not easy to answer this question. H4CBD has a significantly weaker psychoactive effect than THC. For users who have no experience with THC or who are sensitive to THC, the H4CBD is a mild-to-moderate cannabimimetic, which means it produces a noticeable uplifting yet relaxing effect—a stress-relieving euphoria without significant intoxication.

What are the effects of H4CBD?

H4CBD is not intoxicating, with just a «baby kick» of THC. Following consumer tests of the KANNASTAR vape pen with 98.5% purity, H4CBD proved disappointing for THC users, even when inhaling just one-third of a 1-mL cartridge.

All frequent CBD users reported feeling the effects within a few minutes after taking a few puffs. For the average CBD user, this is «CBD you can actually feel.» If you’re a THC or HHC user, you won’t like it—but that’s not a problem, since this product isn’t designed to compete with THC.

H4CBD exhibits a binding affinity 100 times greater for the human CB1 receptor (Ki = 145 nm) than CBD (Ki = > 10 µm). This places H4CBD in the same range as CBN in terms of psychotropic potential, perhaps slightly more potent.

H4CBD also exhibits stronger anti-inflammatory properties than CBD. This study examined the production of ROI, NO, and TNF-alpha by macrophages. The study indicates that H4CBD exhibits stronger anti-inflammatory biomarkers than traditional CBD.

H4CBD is psychoactive but not intoxicating—similar to caffeine or nicotine in that regard. It is 100 times more potent than CBD on your CB1 receptor and also has stronger anti-inflammatory properties than CBD. It’s all about a better, more potent CBD. This cannabinoid will slowly replace traditional CBD because it’s the CBD that works.

Is hydrogenated CBD the same as H4CBD?

Although H4CBD is a type of hydrogenated CBD, it is not the only one. Another option is H2CBD, which has two additional hydrogen atoms instead of four. In fact, there are many different hydrogenated versions of CBD available, each with a different chemical composition and physiological effects.

Is H4CBD 100 times stronger than CBD?

It is 100 times more potent than CBD at your CB1 receptors, but that doesn’t mean it is 100 times more potent than CBD. Generally speaking, CBD has little affinity for CB1 and may even reduce its activity. However, when combined with four hydrogen atoms, CBD’s affinity for CB1 is significantly increased, making the new cannabinoid (H4CBD) more psychoactive. But even though H4CBD is 100 times more psychoactive than CBD, its psychotropic properties are still far weaker than those of THC.

Based on a study that was not replicated more than 15 years ago, scientists now speculate that H4CBD may have a significantly higher affinity than CBD—but for the CB1 receptors in the nervous system, rather than the primary target of traditional CBD.

Are H4CBD and HHC the same thing?

Although they have similar origins, H4CBD and HHC are distinct substances. HHC is the hydrogenated version of THC (although it is now synthesized from CBD for legal reasons), just as H4CBD is the hydrogenated form of CBD. However, because the cannabinoids from which they are derived differ, HHC and H4CBD have distinct effects.

Is H4CBD safe?

To comment on the safety of H4CBD, we need more information. H4CBD and CBD are chemically identical, and CBD’s overall safety has already been established. However, hydrogenation can sometimes negatively alter substances. Therefore, we will have to wait for researchers to conduct further studies on the safety of H4CBD.

How is it done?

H4CBD is a fully hydrogenated form of CBD. It is a chemical process that adds hydrogen atoms to a selected molecule. This process is used throughout the food and wellness industries; for example, margarine is produced by hydrogenating vegetable oil.

Is H4CBD legal?

Fully hydrogenated H4CBD products contain undetectable levels of THC. This could only be illegal in countries where even the use of CBD is prohibited.

Where can I buy high-quality H4CBD products?

KANNASTAR has joined the initiative to develop «Creative Products with Significant Cannabinoids.» The product line uses H4CBD as its primary cannabinoid. There are versions containing pure H4CBD as well as blends with other cannabinoids to enhance the synergistic effect. Order through the H4CBD online store, and you’ll receive your product in a few days.
