Summary

The feeling of being "high" on cannabis primarily comes from its psychoactive compound, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC. Alongside it is its more subdued companion, cannabidiol (CBD), often used for its potential therapeutic benefits. THC is also found in many familiar edibles, from soft, chewy candies to brownies and chocolates, and can affect the brain when consumed. The researchers tested three different doses of THC and a placebo and asked participants to drive in a simulator two, five and 24 hours after taking the gummies to measure their impact over time.
