Ethereal Gold Dispensary is committed to providing high-quality and safe cannabis products to our customers. As the popularity of Delta-8 THC continues to grow, we want to make sure our customers have access to safe and reliable products. That's why we're proud to offer full panel Delta-8 THC products that have been rigorously tested for purity and potency.
In this blog, we'll explore what Delta-8 THC is, how it's made, the risks associated with Delta-8 gummies, why we are concerned about the state of the Delta-8 Milwaukee has available, and how Ethereal Gold Dispensary ensures our products are safe for consumption.
What is Delta-8 THC?
Delta-8 THC (Delta-8 tetrahydrocannabinol) is a naturally occurring cannabinoid found in cannabis plants. This cannabinoid is only found in small quantities in nature making it considered a rare cannabinoid. It's similar in structure to Delta-9 THC, which is the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis. Delta-9 THC is what we traditionally would refer to as just THC, so if you are looking at med/rec cannabis this is the same form of THC that you would find there.
Delta-8 THC has been gaining popularity due to its reported similar yet milder psychoactive effects, making it a more approachable alternative to Delta-9 THC for some users. You can expect to have a euphoric high feeling, which can vary depending on the terpenes and other cannabinoids that your Delta-8 is combined with (if you have a live rosin Delta-8 product) or if your cannabis product has the terpenes reintroduced in another way. D8 is also reported to have much milder negative side effects so you can expect less dry eyes, anxiety, and paranoia than you would by having Delta-9 THC products.
We urge you to take a further look into Milwaukee Delta-8, as the process of making Delta-8 THC has to go through both extraction and conversion. These processes have the potential to create a product that is harmful for your body.
The Process of Making Delta-8
Delta-8 THC is typically produced by converting CBD (cannabidiol) into Delta-8 THC through a process called synthetic conversion. It is important to clarify that there is a difference between a synthetic cannabinoid and a converted cannabinoid.
Synthetic cannabinoids such as THC-O or HHC-O are not naturally occurring in the cannabis plant and are completely lab made. These lab made cannabinoids are also no longer legal per the DEA. So if you see a Delta-8 Milwaukee store that also sells THC-O, HHC-O products, or other cannabinoids that aren’t naturally occurring, there is a high chance they are also selling improperly manufactured and tested Delta-8 products.
On the other hand, the process of synthetic conversion involves using a solvent to extract CBD from hemp, and then converting the CBD into Delta-8 THC through a series of chemical reactions. All of these parts of the manufacturing process have the potential to introduce solvents or other contaminants to the end products. If properly performed by a professional lab who isn’t cutting corners, this is the same process used by pharmaceutical companies and all solvents and condiments should be removed by the time it reaches the end product state. Luckily, there is testing available that shows if this process was completed successfully, and you aren’t at risk of anything you don’t want in your body left in your product. Now the question is: Are your favorite brands and products performing these lab tests?
Risks of the Delta-8 Gummies Milwaukee Currently Has
While Delta-8 THC is generally considered safe, it's important to note that there are potential risks associated with its consumption. The production of Delta-8 THC is not regulated. Some products may contain harmful contaminants or synthetic cannabinoids. This is why it's crucial to choose a dispensary that offers full panel certificates of analysis for their products.
If you walk into a Delta-8 THC Milwaukee dispensary or store today, chances are the employee will have no idea what a Certificate of Analysis is. Most cannabis products in Milwaukee only test for the potency of a product because that is all that the law requires (and it saves the manufacturer money). This lack of properly made products and lack of lab reports (that should be required before selling a product) is why so many people now think Delta-8 or other cannabis products that aren’t from a med/rec state don’t work or are dangerous.
As an industry we need to do better, and Ethereal Gold Dispensary is paving the road for cannabis in Milwaukee by requiring full panel COAs on every product that we carry in our store both in person and online. This is the Ethereal Gold Standard of testing, and we urge all stores in Milwaukee to meet this standard and provide safe cannabis products for their customers.
Delta-8 Milwaukee vs Delta-9 Milwaukee
You may have seen the Delta-9 gummies Milwaukee has as well, but are these legal and safe (since Delta-9 is the form of THC that is most common in cannabis)? As we previously discussed, Delta-8 and Delta-9 THC are both forms of naturally occurring THC in the cannabis plant. Many however don’t know that you can get federally legal THC products in Milwaukee! As long as the THC comes from a hemp-derived source, you can get any product that is less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight of the total product. This means you can get edibles or other forms of cannabis products with up to 25mg of Delta-9 per gummy easily! (The only products you cannot get in Wisconsin currently, as of 4/6/23 are Delta-9 flower and Delta-9 vapes that are not meant for microdosing, as there is no way to have the total D9 under 0.3% THC by dry weight.)
The nice thing about Delta-9 and Delta-8 products is that we are able to ship them anywhere where these cannabinoids are legal. Luckily the Delta-8 Milwaukee WI has is perfectly legal, so you can get full panel-tested, safe Delta-8 or other cannabis products shipped right to your house. No need to worry about traveling or searching for safe products when you can find products that meet the Ethereal Gold Standard online and ship them right to your door.

FAQ
How can I get Delta-8 out of my system for a drug test?
There is no guaranteed way to quickly flush Delta-8 THC out of your system for a drug test.

Drinking plenty of water, exercising, and eating a healthy diet may help speed up the process.

How do I know if Delta-8 is safe?
It's important to choose a reputable dispensary that offers full panel Certificates of Analysis (COAs) for their Delta-8 THC products.

It's possible to fail a drug test with Delta-8 THC, as some drug tests may not be able to distinguish between Delta-8 THC and Delta-9 THC. Additionally, some drug tests have a lower threshold for THC than others, so even trace amounts of Delta-8 THC could result in a positive test.
