- Contains many ingredients we consider unhealthy

Ingredient Analysis
Space Gods Gummies contains two active ingredients: tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). THC is psychoactive while CBD is not.
Prolonged use of cannabis may be detrimental to physical and mental health, according to a 2014 medical review, but it’s unclear if those same effects may pertain to cannabis-derived products like those sold by Space Gods which are more isolated.
THC is psychoactive, so we consider this product likely to be psychoactive.
The full set of ingredients in the Strawberry Mango flavor of Space Gods Gummies are shown below:
Granulated sugar is a type of added sugar, and added sugar may contribute to diabetes, obesity and heart disease when consumed in excess according to a 2019 medical review.
The inclusion of added sugar is one of the reasons we consider cannabis and CBD gummies to be less healthy than cannabis or CBD oil, which are typically free of questionable additives.
Red 40 is used as a colorant, and a 2012 medical review reported that Red 40 has been found to be contaminated with carcinogens (cancer-causing chemicals).
Citric acid is clinically shown to cause whole-body inflammation in a small subset of individuals, as we discussed in our review of Lemme Gummies.
Natural flavor is a healthier alternative to artificial flavor, but a medical review published in the Environmental Health Perspectives journal suggests that some flavoring additives and their metabolites may have toxic effects in humans.
Overall, we do not currently recommend Space Gods Gummies because we consider the inactive ingredients highlighted above to be unhealthy.
Is Delta-9 THC Safe?
Delta-9 is the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis, so when brands reference potential psychoactive effects of cannabis generally, they’re referring to effects caused by delta-9.
