In 2018, CBD imports into Canada increased to 44.9 kilograms compared to the 30.7 kilograms the country accepted the previous year. That’s because the CBD demand is growing exponentially.
CBD is the healing cannabinoid in the hemp plant. CBD helps your body create endocannabinoids, assisting multiple conditions such as pain, muscle aches, insomnia, anxiety, and even seizures.
Are you a cannabis user? Are you a cannabis manufacturer? It’s important you know specific CBD consumption methods to ensure both safety and effectiveness. Here is the best way to take CBD.
Topical
CBD and hemp creams are becoming more popular, especially amongst patients with pain.
You apply the CBD lotion to the area of pain. The lotion absorbs into the skin and the CBD works at the skin-level, relieving the aches and pains in that one particular area.
All you simply do is take the lotion and apply it anywhere you have pain. Let the lotion absorb. Most users feel pain relief in as little as 10 minutes.
Ingestion
One of the most popular CBD consumption methods is ingestion. You have many CBD oral consumption options. You can choose a CBD oil tincture, edibles, or pills.
Ingesting CBD is effective. Your body absorbs more of the cannabinoid in your bloodstream, strengthening the effects.
However, it takes a while for the CBD to absorb. That’s because the CBD has to pass through the digestive system before feeling the effects, a process that usually takes about an hour.
Swallowing CBD oil is a popular way to consume CBD. Just dispense a few drops of the oil under your tongue and swallow. But CBD oil doesn’t have the best taste. Which is why more consumers are opting for CBD capsules and edibles.
Always pay attention to dosing. A reputable manufacturer will provide dosing instructions. Stick to the instructions first — only take more if you need to.
Vape
If you prefer to experience full-body benefits from CBD and to feel the effects quickly, vaping CBD is another effective method.
CBD absorbs into the bloodstream quicker when it reaches the lungs. Compared to smoking, vaping is less harsh on your lungs.
To vape CBD, you’ll need to buy a vape pen and will need special CBD cartridges. From here, just turn on the vape pen and inhale.
It’s still important you read the CBD vape oil’s label for potency and dosing. There are also many sketchy products on the market, it’s important to only buy from lab-tested and reputable retailers.
