CBD is used to help many ailments like inflammation, and other conditions. Over the years, CBD has gained popularity as a natural way to help chronic conditions and other afflictions. In addition, taking CBD does not make one high and it can help to counteract negative THC-induced reactions. It is for this reason that people are turning to CBD as a natural alternative to pharmaceuticals.
The best ways to consume CBD will depend on what your goals are. For quick relief, inhalation and sublingual administration are the best because they take effect the quickest. On the other hand, joint discomfort and achy muscles would best be relieved by a topical solution to get localized relief.
In general, there are four ways of delivering CBD to the body.
Orally
The mouth is one of the most convenient ways to administer CBD to anyone including children and pets as well. But ingestion is a lengthy process because CBD will have to travel through the digestive system first. CBD is broken down in the liver. This reduces the cannabidiol concentration before it is released into the bloodstream. A study suggests that taking CBD with fatty acids increases the rate of absorption.
The CBD products available for oral administration include CBD oils, CBD soft gels, CBD gummies, and infused foods. CBD gummies have become a staple in the industry and knowing what to look for when purchasing CBD gummies is very important.
Sublingual
Sublingual administration of CBD is similar to oral administration but it is more efficient. Here, you hold the dose under your tongue for a minute before swallowing what has been left unabsorbed. Sublingual administration is more efficient because you bypass the digestive system and the liver, allowing the cannabidiols to enter the bloodstream immediately. As a result, the effects will usually take effect quicker. Sublingual delivery is now a popular method of CBD intake. The CBD products that can be taken sublingually include tinctures, droppers, mouth sprays, or pastes.
Topical
Topical administration of CBD is a more targeted relief method for specific parts of the body. It is the best way to help relieve joint discomfort and sore muscles. In topical administration, the cannabinoids never enter the bloodstream since they are directly absorbed to begin interacting with the cannabinoid receptors in the area.
Unfortunately, the skin has a low absorption rate for cannabinoids because the human skin is not so permeable. As a result, you have to apply a liberal amount of CBD in order to experience its effects. Therefore, it is important that you choose lotions and salves with high CBD contents because they give a higher chance of getting some reasonable amount of CBD through your skin. Our customer-favorite CBD topical at this time would be our CBD stick.
Inhalation
CBD can be inhaled through smoking or vaping. Inhalation is an effective method of administration because it takes effect immediately. With plenty of low-THC and high-CBD strains and oils that can be vaped, you cannot run out of options to inhale CBD. The lungs have a large surface area for absorption of CBD and the cannabidiols enter the bloodstream after inhalation. Vaping is a quick-relief method because CBD oils have greater potency.
CBD has lots of health benefits that can be enjoyed with any method of consumption.
