What CBD products should I use?

This can vary from individual to individual but tinctures remain the most popular type of product, but capsules are also best sellers, while topicals are used for pain relief.

What is cannabinoids (CBD)?

Its been over 50 years since Israeli scientist first isolated THC, more than a hundred powerful substances known as cannabinoids have been discovered in the cannabis plant. These cannabinoids are found in the sticky resin released by the small, mushroom-shaped glands on the flowers and other plant parts.

Cannabinoids work by binding to the receptors in your brain and body, which is how they influence pain, inflammation, temperature, stress response, memory, appetite and more.

Why is Healthy Lives Organics considered a premium product?

Will CBD get me high?

No, CBD shouldn’t get you high because it should have less than 0.3% THC.

Ingestibles

Taking CBD through capsules, gummies and food is also popular. While using CBD orally is quick and easy, before it works, it must first pass through the digestive system, which can be a long process. The compound also must pass through the liver, which metabolizes, or breaks down, the substance. This method is not particularly effective for absorbing CBD in high concentrations and can take a long time to see results.

Sublingual:

Some people take CBD sublingually, placing it under the tongue. This allows mucous membranes to absorb the CBD and bypass the digestive system and liver. This process is faster than ingesting CBD because there are capillary-rich areas underneath the tongue and along the gums and cheeks. While the supplement reaches the bloodstream quickly, some of it is also swallowed, meaning CBD could be in a person’s system for more than 5 hours.

Topical:

Creams and foams with CBD bypass the bloodstream altogether. If the problem is near the skin, a direct application could be effective. The skin absorbs the CBD and it interacts with nearby cannabinoid receptors. This can be useful for treating muscles and pain-perceiving nerves. While this method has the potential to give targeted results, large levels of CBD are often needed to be effective. Skin is not very permeable and generally blocks substances from entering the body. While widely popular, topical creams are relatively new.

Vaping:

For CBD to work, the body has to absorb it. To reach the brain, for issues like anxiety or trouble sleeping, CBD needs to travel through the bloodstream. One way to accomplish this is through inhalation. Vaping has become popular in recent years, and vaping CBD oil delivers high-potency and immediate results. Users may feel the effects within 10 minutes of inhalation.

Other delivery systems:

Consuming CBD rectally, via suppositories, or intravenously through a vein, pumps the supplement quickly into the bloodstreams. These methods, however, are less popular.
