Such a great selection improves the chance to decide on the best method, which will suit your needs and lifestyle. If you considering trying CBD, but do not know where to begin, do not despair. Here are tips for seven different ways how to use it.

After ingestion, the oil passes through the digestive system, it gets metabolized in the liver and distributed into the bloodstream. CBD oils are usually available in convenient packaging. Simply squeeze out the desired amount on a spoon, put it in your mouth, and swallow it. If practicality is your thing, try capsules with CBD, which you just need to wash down with a gulp of water.

2. Oral administration – holding CBD under the tongue

Another popular method of use is that you administer CBD oil under the tongue, where you hold it so that the buccal mucosa in the mouth can absorb CBD and other active substances contained in the oil. The so-called sublingual administration involves a faster kick-in of the effects as CBD and other cannabinoids in the extract do not pass through the digestive system or do not need to be metabolized by the liver.

3. Vaping

In the past few years, vaping has earned the sympathy of users who like to look after their health. Vaping is gentle to the lungs as it lets CBD, together with other, less represented cannabinoids, get absorbed through a large area of the lungs before they enter the bloodstream. If you do not have dry cannabis flowers rich in CBD at hand, you can try various vaping pens with CBD cartridges of e-liquid cartridges. Although they are not considered as vaping anymore, they are an excellent alternative.

4. Chewing gums

A more convenient method of how to take CBD than chewing gum most likely does not exist. Not only is this a very discreet way of using this cannabinoid, but according to a number of studies chewing helps to forgo stress and improve concentration while working under pressure. Well, now you can do it together with making the best of CBD benefits.


5. Add CBD into your favorite meal or beverage

Are you looking for another useful way of how to include CBD in your daily routines? Try adding it into your favorite food or drink. By adding cannabidiol, whether in the form of oils or dried flowers from your garden, into your prepared, healthy meals is not only very simple, but this method can also improve the absorption of CBD and other cannabinoids. Fatty acids in meals can work as carriers that to let cannabinoids to be processed before they are metabolized. 

6. Application of CBD to skin

Many CBD products can be applied to the skin too. When absorbed into the skin, cannabidiol and other active substances in hemp ointments and skin lotions directly affect cells near the surface without penetrating the bloodstream. CBD oils mixed with hemp oil extracted directly from hemp seeds also contain fatty acids, proteins, vitamins, and other essential nutrients, which are very beneficial for the skin’s good health.

7. CBD shampoos and conditioners

Washing your hair with shampoos and conditioners containing CBD naturally cleans and strengthens your hair, including the skin on your head.
