All I’m gonna say, is none of those seem to touch on sublingually nor the different bioavailability of different extraction ingredients, and there’s not a whole lot of actual research since it’s status as an illegal drug in most places.
It’s not going to be just through the intestines, it has to pass through the stomach and mouth first where some would be directly absorbed.
I quickly looked through this, but can’t speak of its totality right now. linky
Yes but even in the article you linked it states that small amounts may be absorbed. You are not going to get the majority of the dose of your edible though your mouth or stomach, the majority is absorbed in the intestines. Which is also stated in the page you linked.
It also states that sublingual and oromucosal absorption happens within seconds to minutes. If you had absorbed a significant amount of THC from chewing an edible, you would feel it quickly, and that just doesn't happen.
The fact of how edibles function in the real world, aside from negligible absorption in the mouth is this:
you are not going to feel your edible kick in until 30 minutes to 2 hours later
an edible kicking in can be slowed if you've had a large meal
drinking something warm or having a small amount of food just before or after taking an edible will speed up its digestion and speed up it kicking in.
it does NOT absorb at the same rate no matter what.
