With edibles, there is more conversion of THC to THCCOOH, which is what urine tests look for. The truth is that it doesn’t really matter how you consume cannabis, whther it be edibles, oils or smoking it will generally result in the same level of THC-COOH. To get rid of things like THC-COOH, the human body utilizes something called glucuronic acid, which binds to the metabolites before they pass out of the body in the urine stream. One of those, is our friend THC-COOH, which is also referred to as a carboxy.
Your body eliminates many waste metabolites through urine. It’s almost as if the human body likes the metabolites of THC because rather than getting rid of them immediately, like it does with other substances, it holds onto them for extended periods of time.įor example, alcohol stays in the system up to five days cocaine from two to 10 days amphetamines two to three days opioids two to five days LSD two to three days psilocybin up to five days and MDMA from two to three days. They slowly are excreted through urine over time. These substances are lipid-soluble, meaning they accumulate in fat deposits throughout the body. THC, CBD, and the rest of the cannabinoids have metabolic byproducts, called metabolites. The major downside to this is that it can lead to people testing positive for pot a long time after they’ve used it and the THC is going to be detectable in your urine for up to 30 days regardless of how you consume it. When this is present in your urine, it means your body has recently processed THC. Instead, it looks for a THC metabolite, THC-COOH.
