6 Potential Benefits of THCa Hemp Flower

THCA hemp flower may be less mainstream, but that doesn’t make it any less meaningful in the cannabis world. From possible therapeutic benefits to its main role as being the precursor to THC, tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCa) is worthy of all the attention it’s been getting.

Before we dive into all the benefits THCa hemp flower stands to offer, it’s important to clear one thing up: will THCa get you high? In its raw form, THCa flower does not have psychotropic properties. When burned for smoking, vaping, or decarboxylated to make into edibles or concentrates, however, the THCa molecule loses one of its carboxyl groups, which transforms it into THC that will get you high.

Because its raw form contains little to no Delta 9 THC (the kind of THC which differentiates hemp from marijuana) on its own, THCa can be sold online legally. Once it is combusted, however, the conversion will have taken place and you can expect the euphoric experience associated with cannabis. Think of it as an added (and welcome) bonus.

As for the other benefits THCa hemp flower may offer, we’ll go into those in more detail below.

THCa Could Act as an Analgesic

Many people report that using THCa hemp flower or Delta 9 THC gummies has helped lessen or eliminate their pain. This is due to the way THC triggers a specific receptor in the endocannabinoid system, which results in a lower pain stimulus response.

THCa May Be an Anti-Nausea Aid

Raw cannabis juice could be helpful for those who have issues with nausea and/or vomiting. Research suggests that the antiemetic properties in THCA may contribute to a reduction in vomiting/nausea behaviors in test subjects, even more so than with Delta 9 THC (aka regular THC), despite raw THCa’s non-psychoactive properties.

THCa May Offer Neuroprotective Qualities

Research has also been conducted to suggest a connection between the use of THCa in protecting neuroactivity. This could be useful for neurodegenerative diseases, although additional research still needs to be done.

Anti-Inflammatory Properties of THCa

Inflammation results from the body trying to protect itself against an external agent. This could be a virus, an injury, an attack on the immune system, and more. Inflammation may be acute or chronic and varies from person to person. One thing all people who have inflammation know is that it is terribly uncomfortable, and in some cases worse than the pain itself. THCa’s anti-inflammatory properties suggest that it could be useful for those suffering from inflammation.
