How to take CBD

From a relatively unknown cannabinoid, CBD has quickly burst onto the scene as one of the most widely used compounds from the cannabis plant. The resulting product innovation now offers users numerous ways to take cannabidiol.

Each route of administration offers different benefits and results. Below you’ll discover the most common ways to take CBD, the best products available, and everything you need to know about each method.

There are many different ways to introduce this versatile cannabinoid into our bodies, from adding CBD oil to drinks and food to inhaling cannabinoid-rich vapor clouds. Each method is designed to meet the specific needs of individual consumers, as not every method of intake is ideal for each individual.

That being said, experiencing the wide range of CBD products in each category is the best way to find your preferred method. And to help you along the way, this article contains all the information you need to know to get started.

The three main routes of administration described below not only change the way you take in the cannabinoid, but also the way it travels through your body. Additionally, the variety of intake methods allows you to gain experience with cannabidiol. You’re not limited to just one way of taking this cannabinoid, but you can combine different methods to change the duration of the effects and how quickly they occur.

Simple and discreet, oral CBD is an effective way to dose the cannabinoid. Ingesting drops of CBD oil is the easiest and most immediate way to consume this molecule. And it’s also possible to add CBD oil to foods and drinks to cover up the flavor. However, there are more interesting and tasty choices: from gummy bears to sweet infusions with CBD.

CBD Oil: Cannabidiol oil also known as CBD oil, is extracted from cannabis, however it should not be confused with hemp oil. CBD oil is making more and more inroads due to its multiple health benefits. But not only that, it is finding wide field of study in cosmetics, especially in the United States, where several cosmetic companies have started using it. The success of cannabis oil based products depends on its relaxing and analgesic properties. Many studies, in fact, have demonstrated the effectiveness of cannabinoids in the treatment of epilepsy, to help with Stress and Anxiety, in the management of pathologies such as ADHD and Parkinson’s disease.

CBD softgel capsules: these capsules are one of the most efficient ways to consume CBD orally, either on the go or at home. These capsules contain the CBD oil, are tasteless, odorless, and easy to incorporate into an existing supplement routine without any complications.

Liposomal CBD Oil: Liposomes are a form of nanotechnology that transport active ingredients to their target cells and increase their bioavailability. These tiny “capsules” safely transport cannabidiol through the digestive tract and directly to their site of action.

CBD Isolates: CBD Isolate comes from crystals and are nothing more than isolated and purified extractions of cannabidiol, which take the form of fine white and odorless grains.

Cannabidiol is extracted using CO2 (carbon dioxide) extraction machines and without the use of solvents, potentially toxic to humans and the environment as with many other food processes. Subsequently, during the process of isolation of the crystal, everything contained in the plant matter is removed: traces of THC (i.e. the psychoactive substance of cannabis), oils, resins, chlorophyll and so on. What remains at the end of the processing is, therefore, nothing but the pure CBD molecule.

Then the crystals are processed until they reach 99% purity. In the remaining 1% there are the natural substances that are used to give the crystal the typical taste of a hemp extract.

However, the most suitable, effective and “noticeable” way is probably to vaporize them, but in this case you will need a vaporizer or a special electronic cigarette with which to take the crystals such as those that have appeared on the market recently and their special liquids.

This system offers you the advantage of being able to inhale CBD, making it go directly to the lungs and, consequently, enter the bloodstream after a few moments having a much faster effect when compared to taking cbd by ingestion.

The big difference between vaporizing and smoking is that by vaporizing you are not burning the herb, you are simply heating it up to a certain temperature. The heat ends up activating the cannabinoids and terpenes in the cannabis, releasing them into a vapor that can be inhaled. Since you’re not inhaling smoke like you would with a cannon, vaporizing has some real health benefits compared to smoking.

The main benefits of vaping it’s that is (arguably) healthier than smoking, Vaporization is more effective, maximizes potency and bioavailability and you can appreciate more the flavors.

If, on the other hand, you want to protect your skin only with natural and quality products then we recommend cosmetics with CBD. Just apply them directly on the skin of the affected areas to get benefits in the treatment of certain debilitating conditions such as joint pain, dry skin and acne.

Cannabidiol is an element that interacts with the endocannabinoid system in the body, because it helps the body regenerate itself.

But what is the endocannabinoid system? It is a network of receptors, integrated with each other, through which the homeostasis of the body is ensured, that is, its stability. Obviously, the receptors of the integrated system are also present in the skin of the body, in different places.

CBD works not only on damaged cells of the epidermal tissue, but also on healthy ones. There are numerous researches that have confirmed the regenerative properties of cannabidiol; however, the benefits of cosmetics with CBD are progressively increasing.

That is why CBD is very useful from a dermatological point of view: it interacts with the epidermis in a completely natural way, promoting homeostasis, with all the benefits that come with it.
