When you are familiar with CBD, you might know that it can be used in different ways. But which ways exactly? And which one is the best? This article will answer your questions, so you know which method to use!
CBD oil
The first option is the most common one: CBD oil. You might have seen CBD oil in the store lately. CBD oil comes in a tincture made of glass. In this tincture there’s a dropper to dose the CBD oil in small drops. This way you can measure the dosage very precisely. CBD in the form of oil is absorbed very well by your body. Therefore, CBD oil is one of the most used options. A downside of CBD oil is the taste. Some people may find the taste a little bit nasty. There are however CBD oils on the market with special flavors. Still, not everyone loves to take these drops. When the taste is not an issue for you but you only care about the effects, CBD oil is the way to go.
Vaping
Another way to consume CBD is by vaping it. There are several CBD vaping products on the market, such as cartridges, vape pens and vape oil. A very big pro of vaping CBD is the very quick absorption time. You feel the effects within minutes! Because of this however, the effects also last shorter than with other methods. Vaping CBD generally tastes very good. It’s also very convenient to take a vape pen with you wherever you go. For tinctures this is not the case.
Smoking
Many people think that smoking and vaping are the same. These are however not the same. When you vape something you just ‘cook’ it without burning it. When smoking on the other hand, there is combustion. Because of this, vaping is way safer to do. So; we always recommend vaping over smoking! If you still want to smoke CBD, you need a CBD flower. You can read more about that in the CBD flower guide!
Eating
The third option to use CBD is by eating it. There are a lot of CBD gummies on the market. These are candy bears, but with CBD in them! Just like a vape pen, you can carry these easily with you. Gummy bears are also very discreet. People may look weird at you when you’re vaping or taking drops, but there’s nothing weird about eating some candy, right?! Besides the gummy bears there are also CBD capsules.
On skin
You can also put CBD on your skin. There are multiple skin care products with CBD in them, such as lotion and cream. Your skin has receptors that can absorb the CBD in these products! There’s even sunscreen with CBD in it. So if you already use sunscreen and you want to use CBD as well, you can easily combine it this way!
