CBD Oil, a Short Intro!

CBD is famous for its therapeutic properties. It is also known as cannabidiol and is a part of the cannabis plant. CBD is extracted from the hemp plant and has a THC level of around 0.3%, which doesn't give you the high effect.

CBD has many uses, including being used in CBD oil tinctures, capsules, edibles, creams, and CBD vape juice. Since CBD has gained popularity, people have reported anecdotal evidence of CBD as a natural remedy for several ailments including, relaxation, calmness, and pain relief. Using CBD in CBD oil form has been popular for a while, but taking CBD in vapor form has increased in popularity for its fast-acting effects. it's generally available in different consumption forms. Ranging from tinctures, creams, gummies, and even CBD vape oil like the ones available at Avida CBD.

It is important to note that CBD oil tinctures and CBD vape oil are two distinct products. The former is not suitable for inhalation and can pose significant health risks. However, the latter is best for inhalation purposes and despite its name, is not oil-based. CBD oil vape owes its popularity to its fast-acting effects. When the lungs absorb the CBD, it gets into the bloodstream faster and gets to work almost immediately. People have experienced virtually instantaneous calming effects.

How to Safely Vape CBD Oil

Knowing everything about your product and the ingredients used is important. Also important are the harmful implications of incorrect consumption. It is the first step to consuming any type of recreational or medical substance safely. This article will be your ultimate guide to vaping CBD oil.

Let's start by making a few things clear about vaping and CBD oils.

There are two types of vape friendly CBD oils:

1. CBD vape juice

2. CBD cartridges

CBD Vape Juice

CBD vape juice, also known as CBD vape oil, is a product formulated with ingredients that are safe for human consumption. It also contains no actual oil or fatty oil, making it suitable for not only vaping but oral use as well. The label should mention something about vaping or vape juice, e-juice or e-liquid, this confirms the intended purpose is for vaping.

Being aware of the ingredients of your product is crucial. Always check the ingredients carefully to make sure they are intended for vaping. Ingredients in CBD vape juice are simple: vegetable glycerin, propylene glycol, CBD, and flavoring. If the CBD product contains any type of fatty oils like MCT oil, Hemp seed oil or any other oil, it is not intended for vaping.

CBD Cartridges

CBD cartridges are disposable cartridges or tanks containing CBD vape oil. These cartridges are made to be used with a battery device and are made simple to use and easy to charge. It is important to choose a high-quality CBD vape battery and a cartridge. Buy from a trusted and reputable brand. Check the label for any added ingredients. Make sure to read and follow the direction provided with the battery to ensure correct usage.

How Much CBD Should You Vape?

Since there are no standard doses for CBD, start slow and low. Trial and error is the first way to determine the dosage that provides you with your desired effects. Start with small amounts ranging from 1 to 2 mg of CBD. Usually, one puff of a typical CBD vape cartridge with 250mg will contain 1-2 mg of CBD. It is advisable to wait for at least 30 minutes before administering the next dose. Gradually work your way up a puff at a time until you achieve your desired results.

The key is to be aware of how you are feeling after every dose. Make sure you stop increasing the dosage the moment you feel the positive effects. Effects can range from improved mood, reduced anxiety, relaxation, and pain relief.

Important Note: Remember, if using CBD for therapeutic, health, and wellness purposes. You should consult with your doctor or medical health care professional.

What About CBD Overdose?

There have been no reported incidents or documented human fatalities to date, relating to CBD. Research results reflect that the toxicity of CBD based products is low. A 1981 study on monkeys concluded the toxic dose of CBD is 212 mg per kg of body weight. This suggests that humans will have to consume hundreds of times the average daily dose.

Will CBD Get You High?

A common misconception associated with CBD is the expectation of experiencing a high. CBD and CBD vape juice do not have the same psychoactive effects as THC and THC products do. The "high" experience cannot be in any way achieved via CBD oil with THC levels of 0%.

In fact, CBD might have a reverse effect on a THC induced high. It moderates the high by preventing the body from breaking down the THC completely. High doses of CBD may lead to side effects like drowsiness, redness of eyes, and hunger.

Things to Look Out for When Buying CBD Oil

Being cautious of the ingredients is once again reiterated. This is because some CBD products are being sold without the advertised quantities of CBD. Some of which may contain synthetic chemicals or contaminants. It is important to check the label and buy your CBD oil from a trusted source.

Conclusion

In conclusion, ensure that you are vaping CBD oil meant for vaping. If you are using a cartridge, make sure you buy a high-quality battery as well. Take note of how much CBD you are vaping until you achieve your desired effects; this will help you find your desired dosage.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
