In any case they are reports from people who compared their regular edibles to edibles with lecithin, not my experience. But what i find interesting now is your half a gram. 5ml of my oil is about half a gram.. first time i tried that much, i was high for TWO DAYS (didn't have any tolerance then), more of a body stone though. About a month ago i tried the same one evening and it held me strong right through the night and all of next morning lightly.
If its hitting that quickly, where is it being absorbed? That's something to read up on..
I recall badkittysmiles stating that we want liver absorption for full effect and lecithin was crucial for that. Now that we know we are actually trying to bypass the liver, where does that put us with lecithin and 'fast' absorption..?
I don't recall reading that statement by badkittysmiles, but it may have been in connection to her preference for coconut oil, which, as a medium-chained fatty acid directs the meds to the liver. That route is her intention. I don't believe lecithin has any special affinity for the liver. If I'm wrong here and you recall the post I'd appreciate a direction to it so I can review it myself.
I'm also going to assume that she believes the most powerful cannabinoid in play is always Delta-9 THC. Given some of my recent readings, I'm not sure that's a sound assumption.
As to the quick onset, you got me. It surprises me every time, and yet there it is. Obviously I'm getting metabolized at an incredibly rapid rate, at a time when it's assumed to still be in the stomach acids. It must get fast tracked out of the stomach. An interesting mystery. How on earth will we solve it?
