THCV Isolate: What Is It and How Does It Work? Most people are aware of cannabis's intoxicating effects, but few are aware of the chemical molecule that generates the psychoactive effect, let alone how it works to produce the classic "high" of cannabis. Maybe you've heard the abbreviation, but what exactly is THCV? THCV Isolate, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is one of several chemical substances produced by the cannabis plant known as cannabinoids.

Cannabinoids: How Do They Work? The cannabis plant naturally produces over 100 cannabinoids, but the two best known and most common are CBD and THCV. THCV Isolate is responsible for many of cannabis's good benefits, including the psychoactive ones.

Many scientists believe that cannabinoids, which are classified as "secondary metabolites," have a function in plant defences.
