Cannabinoid Glossary Entry 

# THCV

Tetrahydrocannabivarin — short-acting cannabinoid with its own unique effects profile.

## Detailed Explanation

THCV (Tetrahydrocannabivarin) is structurally similar to THC, but has a different effects profile. In low doses, it is described as less intoxicating, while higher amounts may show psychoactive effects. THCV is the subject of current research on metabolism and appetite regulation.
