When the United States Farm Bill was passed back in 2018, a legal limit of THC was established. Any hemp products that contain no more that 0.3% delta-9 THC are considered federally legal. However, American states reserve the right to enforce their own laws concerning hemp and cannabis products. To add to this ambiguity, the FDA has not approved THC, CBD, or any other cannabinoids. It is illegal to include cannabinoids like THC and CBD dietary supplements. Therefore, it is imperative that manufacturers exercise caution with how they advertise their products. Although the FDA contends that cannabinoids may produce some undesirable side effects, preliminary scientific studies back up assertions that they may also carry several health advantages. Continue reading to find out why the FDA hasn't authorized THC, learn about THC legality in the United States, and to discover more about the possible advantages of this cannabinoid!

What Is the Legal Limit of THC?

Since 2018, hemp products that contain up to 0.3% THC have been considered legal on the federal level. This is primarily useful for CBD customers who utilize full-spectrum CBD products, since these products contain amounts of all major cannabinoids. CBD customers who do not wish to use any amount of THC should stick to CBD isolate or broad-spectrum CBD products. The former contains only CBD and no other cannabinoids, while broad-spectrum products contain a variety of major cannabinoids, but no THC. 

THC products remain federally illegal in the United States. While there has been talk about the American government rescheduling cannabis in recent years, it still has not happened. Fortunately for cannabis enthusiasts, many individual states have legalized THC for both medical and recreational use. Conversely, some jurisdictions mandate that all hemp products have no detectable amount of THC in order to be considered legal. However, no government organization is necessarily in charge of confirming the claims expressed on product labels because the FDA does not regulate hemp or cannabis products. This means that it is all the more important for customers to examine the lab test results for the THC products they use. Happy Fruit publishes unbiased third-party lab test results for all of our THC gummies on our website.
