<p data-start="861" data-end="1108">Before diving into consumption methods, it&rsquo;s useful to recall that <strong data-start="928" data-end="966">THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) is the acidic, non-psychoactive precursor to THC. THCA diamonds are highly purified crystals of this cannabinoid, often exceeding 90% purity.

<li data-start="1110" data-end="1215">
<p data-start="1112" data-end="1215">When heated (decarboxylated), THCA converts into THC, producing the classic intoxicating cannabis high.

<li data-start="1216" data-end="1379">
<p data-start="1218" data-end="1379">Consuming THCA without heating results in non-intoxicating effects, with potential therapeutic benefits such as anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties.
