When we talk about happiness in a physical sense, the first thing that comes to most people’s minds is endorphin – the classic "happiness hormone." But not many people realize that there is also a connection between THC and happiness hormones.

Although public opinion about THC has somewhat improved in recent years, that doesn't mean people are eager to use it daily. Most countries still do not make THC legally available. There are many possible explanations for this. However, it is a solid and undeniable fact that THC is related to feelings of happiness. In today’s blog post, we explore this topic a bit further.

What is the connection between THC and happiness hormones?

We already know that THC consumption, depending on the strength of the THC content, can cause a “high” – a state that may include psychosis, euphoria and a sense of intense joy. While this doesn’t happen to everyone, average users often report such experiences. Essentially, this means that THC triggers the release of happiness hormones in the body.

How does it do this? Among other things, THC affects the body’s endocannabinoid system. This system is responsible for maintaining optimal body function and balance. The compounds found in cannabis, including THC, are similar to the substances naturally produced by our endocannabinoid system. When we introduce additional cannabinoids, we can enhance the effects already expected from this system.

When everything goes well, this results in happiness and joy. CBD can do even more than this and when combined with THC, its effects can be further amplified. Fortunately, in countries where such use is permitted, full-spectrum CBD oil is available, which includes THC, but only within the legally allowed limits.

But what can CBD oil do?

This organic medicinal product is gaining increasing popularity, with its beneficial effects supported by numerous studies and research. Extracted from the cannabis flower, CBD offers many positive effects. These include reducing anxiety, relieving stress, easing pain, lowering inflammation and helping to overcome sleep disorders.

Of course, the effective amount will vary from person to person – and this is true for both CBD and THC.

If you feel THC is much more convincing to you and you’d prefer to give it a try, that’s certainly possible – provided you’re in a country where it’s legal. For more information on the legal status of THC in various countries, you can refer to one of our earlier blog posts.

It is always advisable to follow the legal regulations. Keep in mind that no matter where you are in the world, the laws of your country apply to you. Act accordingly or trust that no one has been pursued across borders for a bit of joy.
