THCV is a stimulant that shows promise for suppressing appetite, with the potential to aid weight loss. Prime Sunshine is the first to offer a purified THCV oil and a THCV CBD blend.
What is THCV?
THCV is a cannabinoid. This means that, like CBD and THC, it works with the human endocannabinoid system (ECS). Our ECS helps regulate our physical and mental well-being, influencing how we experience stress and anxiety, how we sleep, eat, and even our hormone levels.
How does THCV work?
THC—the main psychoactive component in cannabis—turns on our CB1 receptor. This causes the release of hunger hormones. By contrast, THCV turns off our CB1 receptor, thereby suppressing appetite.
