How Does THCV (Tetrahydrocannabivarin) Work?
SHARE

In comparison to THC, Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) acts differently. At present, consumers only encounter small amounts of Tetrahydrocannabivarin. The popular African landrace strain: Durban Poison, contains decent levels of Tetrahydrocannabivarin. THCV has many therapeutic benefits for patients suffering from debilitating conditions.

The Science Behind THCV (Tetrahydrocannabivarin)

CBGA is home to many major cannabinoids, including THC (CBD) and THC (HTG). THCV comes from THCVA, which results from the heat or ultraviolet light having broken down CBGVA.

In Steep Hill Labs’ opinion, Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) is one of the psychoactive cannabinoids with a shorter half-life than THC. The high feels clear-headed, psychedelic, and cerebral. Some studies of THCV have not shown the same strong effects as others.

There is evidence that Tetrahydrocannabivarin inhibits some effects of THC and enhances others. A double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study within-subjects took place with volunteers. The researchers gave 10mg of pure THCV or placebo for five days and then 1mg of intravenous cannabis on the fifth day. Nine out of ten participants felt that THC was subjectively weaker. A larger study is needed to make definitive conclusions since the study was small.

The contradictory results may be caused by THCV being a CB1 receptor agonist, similar to THC at higher doses. Additionally, it can act as a CB1 antagonist in lower doses which could cause your high to go away. The subjects ingested only enough Tetrahydrocannabivarin to provide antagonist effects, according to the study.

Steephill Labs claims that THCV has a longer-lasting effect than THC and is more psychedelic. To confirm the increased psychoactive effects, researchers would need to study subjects receiving high amounts of Tetrahydrocannabivarin.

One reason Tetrahydrocannabivarin has a link with stronger psychoactive capabilities of THC is that high THCV strains have produced more psychedelic, energetic highs.

What Does Tetrahydrocannabivarin Do?

Tetrahydrocannabivarin has several effects that may benefit people with the following health conditions:

  • Anxiety and PTSD
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • Parkinson’s
  • Obesity

The study showed that THCV inhibited THC-induced heart rate increases in mice. Therefore, Tetrahydrocannabivarin is safer for patients suffering from anxiety. The researchers conducted the study to discover an alternative to the beneficial cannabinoids with “adverse psychiatric outcomes.” However, no evidence exists for this claim.

In the same study on rats, Tetrahydrocannabivarin did not significantly affect food intake or body weight gain. However, the researchers noted that Tetrahydrocannabivarin caused a significant increase in energy expenditure, which concluded that it was suitable for treating obesity.

High levels of THCV cause euphoria. A few labs have found that the cannabinoid reduces anxiety and panic attacks. Although they claim it may effectively manage PTSD, we haven’t seen any research supporting these claims.

THCV also has anti-oxidant properties. In a published paper, Tetrahydrocannabivarin proved to be neuroprotective, demonstrating the cannabinoid’s ability to relieve symptoms of Parkinson’s disease.

A controlled study conducted by GW Pharmaceuticals in 2012 examined Tetrahydrocannabivarin’s effect on type 2 diabetes. The cannabinoid appears to have anti-diabetic properties, such as regulating blood sugar and reducing insulin resistance.

Final Hit: 

THCV is a psychoactive cannabis cannabinoid, but it is not widely available. There is not much research about THCV’s psychedelic properties and therapeutic benefits. Most growers cultivated strains that contained high levels of THC, the main psychoactive ingredient. That was until recently. The therapeutic benefits of other cannabinoids, terpenes, and the plant’s medicinal properties took some time for growers to appreciate.

In addition to CBD and terpenes, hemp-derived substances are now available in large amounts and are becoming more accessible. 

Check out Alternative Health Distribution if you want to buy THCV products wholesale or in bulk. As we explore and discover more about cannabinoids, we hope to see more of this rare cannabinoid.
