THC, short for tetrahydrocannabinol, is a chemical compound found in the cannabis plant, also known as marijuana. When used through inhalation, THC binds to specific receptors in the brain called cannabinoid receptors. In low doses, THC causes some pain reduction, may can reduce aggresion and can stimulate appetite, and help reduce nausea. Higher doses may cause the "high" associated with marijuana, leading to altered perception of time and space, feelings of happiness, or feelings of fatigue.
