HHC

What is HHC?

HHC or hexahydrocannabinol is a cannabinoid first synthesised by American chemist Roger Adams by adding hydrogen molecules to Delta-9 THC. Known as hydrogenation, this process converts THC into hexahydrocannabinol or HHC.

While Adam created HHC from conventional THC-derived cannabis, the HHC molecule is now extracted from hemp where it is found in low concentrations in both seeds and flowers.

Effects of HHC

HHC is highly compatible with the CB1 and CB2 receptors of our endocannabinoid system, and when interacting with them produces similar effects to THC. Users report suffering from less paranoia and side effects than with THC, and a feeling of "high":

• Euphoria
• Relaxation
• Hunger
• Increased sensory pleasure

Benefits of HHC

The lack of scientific evidence and research means that the benefits of HHC are mainly anecdotal. However, studies have shown that HHC may have anti-inflammatory properties similar to CBD and THC, as well as alleviating chronic pain, migraines and prolonging sleep.

Is HHC legal in Spain?

Buying HHC in Spain is completely legal. HHC is a cannabinoid found in hemp, therefore it does not contain THC. HHC disposable vapers, flowers and resins are perfectly legal as long as their THC percentage is kept below 0.2% to comply with EU legislation. So the answer is yes, buying HHC in Spain is legal.

Does HHC test positive for drugs?

At present there is no evidence that HHC tests positive in a drug test. However, we recommend that you exercise caution about consuming these products before being tested as this has not been fully proven. Also, remember that as it is a psychoactive substance, you should not take it if you are going to drive or operate any kind of machinery, as you put yourself and others at risk.
