THCV

What is THCV? 

THCV or tetrahydrocannabivarin is cannabinoid which is found in the cannabis plant. It is similar in chemical structure to THC, but differs in the length of the side chain and therefore has different properties. The precursor of THCV is cannabigerovarinic acid (CBGVA). THCV is not on the list of banned substances. In small doses it is usually not psychoactive. 

How does THCV work? 

THCV interacts with the endocannabinoid system through the endocannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2. Endocannabinoid system is a cellular signalling system found in the body of all mammals and affects a wide range of processes. Various studies have shown that THCV binds to CB1 and CB2 receptors with significant potency and can therefore help in the management of a wide range of ailments.

What are the effects of THCV?

THCV has stimulant effects, can improve concentration and cause some changes in visual and auditory perception. According to some research THCV reduces appetite, regulates energy metabolism and has the effect of lowering blood glucose and liver triglycerides, thus suggesting its possible use in weight loss.
