About HowToEdibles

Who we are

HowToEdibles is an independent website run by a small editorial team, the HowToEdibles Editorial Team. We are not a cannabis brand or dispensary, and we don't sell cannabis. Our goal is simple: help adults make edibles at home with a dose they can actually predict.

How we create and check our content

• Drafting. Many recipes and articles are drafted with the help of AI writing tools and then edited by our team.
• Fact-checking. Health, legal and science claims are checked against primary sources: peer-reviewed studies and official bodies such as the FDA, CDC, NIH, DEA and state cannabis regulators. Every article lists its sources at the end. Claims we can't support are removed or clearly labelled as uncertain.
• Dosing. Every recipe uses the same formula as our dosage calculator: THC per serving (mg) = 10 × grams of cannabis × THC % × 0.8 ÷ servings. The 0.8 accounts for THC lost during decarboxylation and infusion. Recipe defaults are set so one serving is at most 15 mg THC. If you're new to edibles, start with 2.5–5 mg and wait at least 2 hours before taking more.
• Updates. Articles show the date they were last updated. We fix errors as soon as we find them or a reader reports them.

What we are not

We are not doctors, pharmacists or lawyers, and our content has not been reviewed by a medical professional. Nothing on this site is medical, legal or financial advice. Talk to a clinician before using cannabis if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, take other medications, or have a health condition, and keep edibles away from children and pets.

How the site is funded

HowToEdibles is supported by advertising (Google AdSense) and by reader donations. Advertisers have no say over what we publish, and we don't accept payment for recipes or reviews.

Legal

Cannabis laws differ by country and state. Our content is for adults in places where cannabis is legal. Follow your local laws.
