01
Fewer calories. It’s no secret that alcohol can be a calorific minefield (159 calories in a single glass of white wine, anyone?!) With THC drops, you’re in control of the calorie intake. Add it to a 5-calorie slimline tonic with a dash of fresh lime and you’re practically calorie-free.
02
Better sleep. Most of us know the mental and physical pain (shame?!) of an alcohol hangover. A large cause is disrupted sleep. With THC, your sleep is actually enhanced, which means waking up refreshed (and hangover-free).
03
It’s safer. According to a 2015 study, the risk of cannabis-related mortality is 144 times less than that of alcohol, which causes more than 140,000 deaths each year. Plus, the long term effects of excessive alcohol are well-documented: high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke and liver disease (to name a few!).
04
It has bonus side effects. Two words: pain relief. One of THC’s superpowers is its analgesic properties. That means it’s working its magic on your aches and pains while you’re enjoying yourself. Now, when can you honestly say your martini last did that for you?
05
The gentle buzz. People describe the THC effect as an elevated, convivial feeling. It’s a warm buzz that tends to kick in 10-20 minutes after you take it, and lasts around an hour. Best of all, the buzz is buildable so you can control exactly how high (or not) you’ll feel.
