Taking edibles on a full stomach, yes or no?

[YourMedicationMakesMeHigh]

I’ve heard varying things, and the last time I tried taking edibles on an empty stomach I vomited. I just ate a couple mini apple turnovers, then took a dose, so I guess we’ve hit the “wait-and-see” portion of the program. Experiences? Tips?

My understanding is- it’s best to have a meal high in fat content beforehand…. otherwise if you dose first then get hungry and eat… well that’s a buzz kill

Yes. Most commercial edibles are recommended to be taken with/after a high fat meal. The reason is the fats will tie up more of the stomach and liver processing allowing more of the cannabinoids to slip past the liver on the first lap and allowing more absorption by the body.

Plus, the fats in the edible help the cannabinoids get absorbed better since they are dissolvable in fats.

Plus, needing to eat apple turnovers are part of the charm and experience. Taking medicine was never this enjoyable.
