Gummies

Hey everybody I was looking for some information or clarity on my situation. So two different times I’ve tried Gummies the first time I took one nothing happened. I waited an hour took another. Nothing happened, next day did the same thing same result. About a month later I bought some more and this time I took three at once and felt nothing they’re from a dispensary. I know they’re good because I gave them to my buddy and they worked on him. Now I’ve heard some people don’t have enzymes in the liver to digest the THC and that could be why I don’t feel anything. I don’t know if that’s BS or if any of you ever heard of that or deal with it yourselves really I’m just curious as to why or if there’s any tips of how to make them work. Appreciate y’all.

Some people don’t have the necessary enzymes to process effectively you may also have a low bioavailability from edibles and may be on the lower end. I would suggest to eat something with high fat to aid with absorption such as a tablespoon of peanut butter(16 grams of fat), a shot of olive oil(tastes weird but delivers 14-15 grams of fat so it is preety effective) or Amy other jigh fat foods with 10-20 grams of fat. Studies show that high fat can increase bioavailability by 2-3 fold.

Also make sure to do the fat before the edible if you’re gonna do peanut butter eat it and then wait 30-60 minutes before taking the edible.
