Introduction To CBD Drops in the UK

CBD is a commonly used abbreviation for cannabidiol which is extracted from the Cannabis Sativa. This plant extract is very different from its psychoactive counterpart, THC (or Tetrahydrocannabinol). 

CBD will not give you a “high”, but it has been linked to a number of benefits and we are learning more about the benefits as further studies are being conducted. 

According to Harvard Medical School: “CBD is commonly used to address anxiety, and for patients who suffer through the misery of insomnia, studies suggest that CBD may help with both falling asleep and staying asleep. CBD may offer an option for treating different types of chronic pain.”

CBD drops are just one of the many forms of CBD available on the market today. They offer a quick and easy way to ingest the product and reap the benefits. 

As leaders and innovators in the industry, we would like to share the best ways to take these drops with you. 

The Best Way To Use CBD Drops

Ingesting drops orally is one of the most common and simplest methods. This technique will also allow you to get some of the best results from your CBD drops.

We especially recommend this for someone who is new to this type of product. By dosing your drops slowly and routinely, you can find the perfect quantity for you.

Holding it Under Your Tongue

One of our favourite ways to take these drops is simply placing them under your tongue. This method is also known as “sublingual”.

When you hold the drops under your tongue instead of swallowing them immediately, you are allowing time for the CBD to be absorbed by the mucous membranes in your mouth. 

This is an effective option because it bypasses the digestive system and liver completely, allowing you to absorb the product into your bloodstream in less time. 

Mixing CBD Into Drinks And Smoothies

If you like to start your day with a fresh juice or a smoothie filled with nutrients and supplements - why not try adding some of these delicious drops into your concoction? This is a fun way to reap all of the CBD oil benefits.

The possibilities are endless when dropping them directly into drinks, as you can add it to a variety of different flavours to constantly delight your palate while still getting all of the goodness. 

Rubbing The Oil Into Your Skin

Another tried and tested way of receiving benefits from CBD is to apply it topically. You can also combine the drops with a lotion. 

In this study they concluded that CBD oil can achieve significant improvement in pain and other disturbing sensations in patients when applied to the skin.

The topical application method also has potential to benefit those who suffer from dermatitis, psoriasis and eczema. There are a lot of CBD users who have claimed that CBD drops have assisted with other skin issues as well.
