DOES CONSUMING HHC HELP TO INCREASE YOUR APPETITE?

By Rishma • On What is New

The desire to eat food is referred to as an appet­ite. When a per­son is hungry, they usu­ally want to eat some­thing. A lack of appet­ite can sig­ni­fy vari­ous med­ic­al dis­orders, includ­ing sad­ness and naus­ea. Can­cers that cause weight loss are one pos­sible cause of appet­ite loss. In some cir­cum­stances, HHC can­nabis treat­ment may help enhance appetite.

Accord­ing to a new study, the endocan­nabin­oid sys­tem (ECS) is engaged when hind­brain neur­ons detect an increase in stom­ach volume. It res­ults in the pro­duc­tion of hun­ger-stim­u­lat­ing hor­mones such as ghrelin.

Accord­ing to the study, eat­ing also reduces how food exits your stom­ach. It means your stom­ach will feel fuller for longer, and you will be less likely to feel hungry right after you eat. So, is ingest­ing HHC can­nabin­oids help you gain weight? The answer is yes!

What is HHC?

HHC, or hexahy­drocan­nabin­ol, is a hydro­gen­ated ver­sion of THC found nat­ur­ally in can­nabis spe­cies. When HHC is chem­ic­ally hydro­gen­ated from THC, it is also termed semi-syn­thet­ic. It is estim­ated to be 70–80 per­cent the potency of THC, mak­ing it more potent than delta‑8 and delta-10. HHC pro­duces a euphor­ic high sim­il­ar to THC but with more calm­ing and tran­quil prop­er­ties sim­il­ar to delta‑8.

Hexahy­drocan­nabin­ol (HHC) is a tet­rahy­drocan­nabin­ol deriv­at­ive that has been hydro­gen­ated. It is an ordin­ar­ily hap­pen­ing phytocan­nabin­oid that has sel­dom been recog­nized as the fol­low­ing part in Can­nabis sativa. Still, it may also be syn­thes­ized syn­thet­ic­ally through the hydro­gen­a­tion of can­nabis extracts.

Does Con­sum­ing HHC Help To Increase Your Appetite?

The ECS is a neur­o­trans­mit­ter and recept­or sys­tem found through­out the cent­ral nervous sys­tem. The ECS reg­u­lates mood, memory, sleep, immun­o­lo­gic­al func­tion, and oth­er functions.

Can­nabin­oids are chem­ic­al chem­ic­als found in can­nabis com­par­able to those found in marijuana. Can­nabin­oids impact the human body; some are psy­cho­act­ive, while oth­ers do not affect your brain or appet­ite. HHC can­nabin­oid refers to can­nabin­oids that do not have psy­cho­trop­ic effects.

Accord­ing to a new study, the endocan­nabin­oid sys­tem (ECS) is engaged when hind­brain neur­ons detect an increase in stom­ach volume. It res­ults in the pro­duc­tion of hun­ger-stim­u­lat­ing hor­mones such as ghrelin.

Accord­ing to the study, eat­ing also reduces how food exits your stom­ach. It means your stom­ach will feel fuller for longer, and you will be less likely to feel hungry right after you eat.

Can­na­bi­d­i­ol, like HHC, is a can­nabin­oid that has been shown to provide numer­ous health advant­ages without pro­du­cing any intox­ic­at­ing effects. HHC can­nabin­oid is a chem­ic­al molecule related to CBD. It has been present to lower appet­ite via stim­u­lat­ing recept­ors in the brain, stom­ach, and hypothalamus.

A sig­ni­fic­ant study has focused on the role of endocan­nabin­oids in hun­ger, eat­ing beha­vi­or, and body weight reg­u­la­tion. Endocan­nabin­oids act on CB1 can­nabin­oid recept­ors in the brain, which helps in increas­ing appet­ite, and ingest­ive beha­vi­or by inter­act­ing with more estab­lished orex­i­gen­ic and anor­ex­i­gen­ic signals.

Does HHC cause a high, and what are its effects?

Yes, HHC pro­duces a high sim­il­ar to THC, but it also has the relax­ing and sed­at­ive prop­er­ties of delta‑8 (and per­haps delta-10). These aspects include how much HHC is con­sumed, how the body pro­cesses HHC, and how fre­quently HHC is used with oth­er products. That high feel­ing, like THC, will affect every­one dif­fer­ently. Depend­ing on a few cir­cum­stances, the high lasts two to three hours.

The num­ber of car­bons on the alkyl side chain of an HHC high makes it sim­il­ar to THC and delta‑8. Because all three can­nabin­oids have five-car­bon side chains, they attach to your can­nabin­oid recept­ors reas­on­ably well.
HHC has effects that are pretty com­par­able to THC. It causes sen­sa­tions of pleas­ure and stim­u­la­tion and alter­a­tions in visu­al and aud­it­ory per­cep­tion, heart rate, body tem­per­at­ure, and altered head­space and cognition.
Many users say that the effects of HHC are com­par­able to those of delta 8 THC in that they are more heav­ily weighted toward relax­a­tion rather than stim­u­la­tion. HHC has a high­er potency than delta 8 THC but slightly lower potency than delta 9 THC.

HHC is still rel­at­ively new; there­fore, there aren’t many stud­ies to ana­lyze its pos­sible thera­peut­ic effects — but so far, it appears that this can­nabin­oid gives the major­ity of the same thera­peut­ic impact pro­file as oth­er types of THC. There has even been an anim­al study that shows beta-HHC has sig­ni­fic­ant paink­illing properties.

What are the bene­fits of HHC?

HHC’s advant­ages are primar­ily unknown. There has­n’t been much research into how HHC can help you, but early pre­clin­ic­al tests on anim­al test sub­jects sug­gest it has pain-reliev­ing and anti-can­cer qualities.
Leav­ing sci­entif­ic study aside, we may say that the bene­fits of HHC are essen­tially the same as those of THC due to their chem­ic­al sim­il­ar­it­ies and affin­ity with can­nabin­oid recept­ors. These advant­ages may include:

● Stim­u­la­tion of appetite
● Anxiety
● Depression
● Insomnia
● Pain Relief
● Inflammation

The actu­al bene­fit of this can­nabis is its long shelf life rather than its phys­ic­al effects. It provides sim­il­ar bene­fits to THC but in a much more stable form.

Is HHC Safe?

There have nev­er been any stud­ies for the safety of HHC; thus, any avail­able inform­a­tion about its safety is hypothetical.
That being said, the pop­ular­ity of HHC is grow­ing, and many indi­vidu­als are already util­iz­ing it daily. There have been no com­plaints of extreme adverse effects. Accord­ing to a pre­lim­in­ary study, it has a sim­il­ar safety pro­file to THC.

Can­nabin­oids are sub­stances that the can­nabis plant pro­duces. THC is the most not­able can­nabin­oid, and the dynam­ic com­pon­ent is Mary­jane. Oth­er can­nabin­oids, includ­ing CBD and HHC, can provide many bene­fits without hav­ing euphor­ic effects. Can­nabin­oids can influ­ence appet­ite in two ways: by boost­ing it or lower­ing it.
