Did you know that there are products out there to help you detoxify THC from your system?

Some employers require drug tests upon hire, if you make a mistake, or randomly. In the case of an emergency, it’s important to be able to detoxify quickly and effectively so you pass your test.

In addition, detoxifying every once in a while is a great way to reevaluate your relationship to weed and help you enjoy life sober for once.

Let’s go over detoxification, employment, tolerance breaks, different products, and more!

What is Detoxification?

Detoxing is when you purposefully cleanse a substance from your body. In this case, we’re trying to get rid of THC.

The more heavily you use, the longer it will take to flush THC and other cannabinoids from your system.

Detox can sometimes be accompanied by a wide variety of withdrawal symptoms including irritability, depression, anxiety, and headaches. However, these will subside within a day or two.

Once you start the detoxifying process, be sure not to pick up any pot until you’re done so you don’t erase your progress. Willpower, my friend, willpower!

How Long Does Weed Stay In Your System?

Unfortunately, we can’t give you a straightforward answer as to how long marijuana will stay in your system. It all depends on things like how heavily you use, how long you’ve been using, your BMI, your metabolism, and the amount of exercise you get.

Here are some rough estimates to give you a general idea of how long a natural flush would take:

• Blood: Up to a week
• Hair: Up to three months
• Urine: Anywhere from 3 to 80 days depending on usage. 10 to 30 days on average.
• Saliva: Up to a week

Detoxing and Employment

Unfortunately, even legal states can allow employment drug tests.

And as much as we all love to smoke, it’s not worth losing a job. If your current employer runs drug tests, you need to be prepared to get that stuff out of your system as quickly as possible.

There are also times when you apply for a new job and don’t realize that taking a drug test is part of the interview process. Don’t let that dream job slip away just because you want to get high!

THC shows up on drug tests for as long as it’s in your system. Unfortunately, marijuana drug tests are different than, say, breathalyzers. You don’t have to be high in order for THC to be present.

But we have good news! If you have a drug test coming up, there are a lot of products on the market to help get your system clean. We lead the industry in wholesale detox products and will help you pass that test.

Why Else Is It Good To Detox?

Even if you don’t have a drug test coming up, detoxing can still be beneficial.

If you use weed heavily or have smoked for many years, you’re probably well aware that your tolerance is much higher than it once was. So you need more weed to get high, which costs you both time and money. In some cases, it’s nearly impossible to get as high as you once did.

Detoxing (or, in this scenario, otherwise known as taking a tolerance break) will help you lower your tolerance again so you don’t need to smoke such large amounts of weed. Regular tolerance breaks are always good practice.

Another reason to detox is to gain some clarity. Weed is meant to enhance your life, not control it. You can use pot to relax, but it shouldn’t be your go-to when you want to numb your emotions. However, sometimes it’s hard to recognize unhealthy patterns when you’re in the thick of it.

Detoxing can remind you what it’s like to be sober and help you maintain a healthy relationship with marijuana.

What Are Some Different Ways To Detox?

While our wholesale head shop specializes in drinks, let’s go over all the different options you have.

• Pills. Pills slowly rid your system of THC over a week’s time. The pills contain a plethora of herbal extracts like goldenseal root, burdock root, rhubarb root, and dandelion root. These all help you detoxify your body in general, with a THC cleanse being a welcomed side effect. If the pills don’t contain natural herbs, they’re snake oil.
• Drinks. While many drinks are low quality, the best ones have minerals and vitamins to help restore the composition of your urine. Proper drinks can flush THC from your body without changing the color of your urine and they won’t have any unnecessary ingredients.
• Kits. Kits often contain both pills and drinks. They can take anywhere from a day to a week to complete. Doubling up on pills and drinks can give your body the extra boost it needs to flush out all that THC.

Final Thoughts

Now you know that you’re not fully in the deep end when you have a drug test looming or if you urgently need some mental clarity.

While you can just go the natural route and hope for the best, it’s unpredictable how long it will take for THC to fully leave your system, and that might not be a risk you can afford.

Luckily, there are products out there to help you flush THC, whether it’s for employment or a much-needed tolerance break. Good products will be full of extracts, minerals, and vitamins.
