All Oil Drops

CBD oil is made by extracting cannabidiol from the hemp plant, which is also called Cannabis Sativa. Many extraction processes can be used. The extract is then diluted with a carrier oil, usually coconut oil, but can be any type of vegetable oil. CBD oil usually has a clear colour and tastes like hemp

What Are The Proven Or Possible Health Benefits?

CBD has been studied for decades, and although there is still a long way to go until we truly understand its benefits, many published research has shown that it may be beneficial for the treatment of different conditions, such as:

• Managing chronic and sciatic nerve pain (here is the best CBD oil for pain Australia)
• Reduce inflammation in joints and muscles
• Increase the quality of life of those suffering from rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis
• Lower symptoms of anxiety in stress-inducing situations
• Decrease the severity of chemotherapy-related nausea
• Reduce the number of epileptic spasms
• Manage the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease

Some other potential benefits have been observed in animal studies, however, further investigation in humans should be conducted. These potential benefits include:

• Reduce the probability of developing cancer
• Treat acne
• Decrease cognitive decline in those suffering from Alzheimer’s disease

Precautions to Use Hemp Drops

Generally, CBD is very well tolerated, however, it’s important to consider that not everyone reacts the same way. People who suffer from schizophrenia should be followed by a mental health professional before using full-spectrum and broad-spectrum CBD, as these products contain THC.

According to the legislation in place in Australia, everyone must receive a prescription for CBD from their doctor. This is a very important aspect as your doctor knows about your conditions and can advise on the type of CBD and potency that might be better for you.

It’s also important to note that although CBD oil can be ingested in many ways, it should never be inhaled or smoked.

How Can You Use Hemp Drops?

One important term that you should understand before using CBD oils is “bioavailability”. This is related to the percentage of CBD that is absorbed into your bloodstream, and which varies according to the ingestion method. Below, we’ll explain the different ways you can use your CBD oil.

1. Absorb Oil Under Your Tongue

The most commonly used method to ingest your CBD is orally. Although this might not be the most discreet method, it does allow you to quickly ingest your daily dose of CBD.

Make sure to consult your doctor for guidance on the amount of CBD you should be taking daily, and confirm how much CBD a dropper of your selected oil contains. This information can usually be found on the online shop, or you can contact customer support for more details.

Once you know that information, you can just fill in the dropper and place the CBD oil under your tongue. You should wait for around 40 seconds before swallowing.

In case one dropper doesn’t contain enough CBD for your daily needs, you can either repeat the process immediately or later on during the day.

It’s important that you don’t increase the daily recommended dosage without your doctor’s reference. Although CBD is usually very well tolerated, you may feel some side effects if you take too much.

2. Cook Your Oil In Good Meals

As explained above, placing the CBD oil directly into your mouth is one of the most common and easiest ways to ingest it. One of the negative aspects of that method of ingestion is that you’ll taste the oil as it is. Some people don’t mind the taste, while others are not fans.

As such, you can avoid that hemp aftertaste by adding your CBD oil to meals or drinks. This will mask the flavour and give you similar results to the direct ingestion.

It’s very easy to find CBD oil recipes online, from sweet desserts to savoury treats, and even a multitude of drinks and teas. Whichever option you choose to cook, just make sure to pay attention to the temperature, as it might deteriorate the efficiency of CBD. Usually, CBD can be heated up to 160 degrees and 180 degrees Celsius.

If you heat the CBD oil higher than that, the potency of the cannabinoids will start to decrease.

3. Apply Your Oil On Your Skin

In certain situations, CBD oil can also be applied directly to your skin. For instance, in case you are trying to benefit from the oil’s potential anti-inflammatory properties for acne or stiff joints, you can place the oil in the affected area and rub it into the skin.

Please note that the bioavailability of topically applied CBD is lower than ingested. With this in mind, although you can apply it directly into the skin, you might feel stronger effects if you ingest it orally.

This happens because the oil doesn’t permeate the skin as easily as it does the gastrointestinal system, which means that the percentage of CBD that is absorbed into your bloodstream will be higher if ingested orally.

We recommend that you speak with your doctor for advice on the type of CBD oil and ingestion method that is better recommended for your individual needs.
