Delta-8-tetrahydrocannabinol, commonly referred to as Delta-8 or D8, is a chemical compound found within the hemp cannabis plant. It is similar in structure to the more well-known Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is the primary psychoactive component of cannabis.
Delta-8 is considered a minor cannabinoid, meaning it is present in smaller quantities compared to Delta-9 THC.
