What are the different ways to consume cbd?

Cannabidiol is mainly sold in the form of flower buds, but there are many other ways to consume it. We will therefore see in this article what are the advantages and disadvantages of each of these methods.

Smoking like a classic “joint”

Many CBD smokers are former smokers of classic THC cannabis and therefore choose to consume CBD as they consumed classic cannabis. Unfortunately this method has the disadvantage of damaging the lungs and is therefore not ideal.

Vape

If you still want to rediscover the sensations of a “smoker” without damaging your lungs, it is possible to go through vaporization. Vaporization poses no risk to the lungs and still allows you to enjoy the aromas of cbd cannabis.

As oil

Another way to benefit from CBD is to consume CBD oil. Again no risk to your lungs and it is a very simple way. Indeed, it is enough to place a few drops under the tongue to benefit from your cannabidiol. There are also several concentrations to easily dose your cannabidiol.

As a cream

In recent years cannabidiol creams have also landed on the market. These creams are generally designed for muscle relaxation and do not cause the same effects as vape or oil.

Infused

There are many CBD herbal teas and infusions on the market, but the effects of herbal teas are quite limited. Indeed, CBD does not dissolve in water and it is therefore generally necessary to add a fatty substance to your cbd infusion. Infusions are therefore generally rather consumed for the taste rather than for the effects they can cause.

As a concentrate

It is also possible to find cannabidiol concentrates, also called hash or CBD resin. Unfortunately it is complicated to consume them other than with combustion.

Eating CBD

An excellent way that does not pose a risk to your health is to ingest cannabidiol directly. There are many products that allow you to ingest your cannabidiol: in cookies, in candies or even in capsules directly.

CBD suppositories

And yes! There are even cannabidiol suppositories. Indeed, suppositories allow better absorption of cannabidiol, some brands therefore offer suppositories!

In short, you will have understood that there are many ways to consume CBD and it is up to you to find the one that suits you best. Remember, however, that when you smoke CBD you damage your lungs and it is therefore better to turn to oils or ingestion if you want to consume CBD without taking any risk to your health.
