CBD: how to consume it?

Increasingly popular in France, CBD or cannabidiol, is a molecule derived from the cannabis plant and renowned for its many benefits on the body. LVD presents the different ways available to you to consume CBD and enjoy its beneficial effects. Depending on the method chosen, the effectiveness and duration of the effects will differ!

Orally

Oral ingestion of CBD is one of the most popular methods of consumption. Indeed, CBD can be found in the form of capsules, or even candies, foods, drinks, etc. It is also possible to dissolve the CBD molecule in a fatty substance (oil, butter, cream, etc.) and cook with it, or infuse it in water and consume it as a herbal tea. Although this method of consumption has the advantage of being quick, practical and discreet, you will need to wait for the molecule to reach your digestive system before the first effects begin to appear. Although you generally need to wait between 30 minutes and 1 hour after ingestion, the effects are among the most long-lasting (up to 7 hours).

Sublingually

CBD is also available in the form of oil to be placed under the tongue. This absorption method allows for the most precise dosing. The drops placed under the tongue should be held there for at least 1 minute before being swallowed, in order to give the sublingual receptors time to absorb the active ingredients. This route offers rapid transmission and the first effects are felt after 5 to 30 minutes, with an action that can last up to 6 hours.

By inhalation

CBD also comes in the form of flowers, wax, resin or crystals that can be inhaled. To do so, several methods are possible. It is firstly possible to consume CBD by combustion by crumbling it and then smoking it in a rolling paper, a pipe or a bong. However, this assimilation method is not recommended for health reasons, for obvious reasons.

It is also possible to inhale CBD using a vaporizer. This method is particularly suited to consumers who enjoy the taste of hemp. For a few years now, you can also vape a CBD-based e-liquid to relax naturally! However, it is essential to make sure you heat your vape liquid to the ideal temperature to fully benefit from the molecule's properties without altering them! The vaporizer and the e-cigarette remain the healthiest inhalation methods, as you do not suffer the harmful effects of combustion. Furthermore, the active ingredient of cannabidiol acts more quickly than with other techniques, as it is sent directly into the bloodstream through the lungs. However, the effects fade faster and can last up to 3 hours.

Through the skin 

You can also use cosmetic products (cream, ointment, balm, gel, etc.) or CBD-based patches. Once the product is applied, the active ingredients of the plant will diffuse more slowly (between 1 hour and 1 hour 30) but also more durably into the body through the skin (up to 6 hours). Patches can in turn take effect for 24 hours or more.
