There are hundreds of CBD brands and products on the market, and it can feel overwhelming navigating everything. Instead of aimlessly trying tons of different products and getting frustrated if they don’t work, take some time to identify the right CBD product for you.
Why are you interested in CBD?
The first step to choosing the right CBD product for you is identifying your desired results. Ask yourself, “why do I want to try CBD?” and “what am I hoping to experience?”
Relaxation
Many people turn to CBD to help them relax or to reduce acute stress. If you’re looking for something to take the edge off after a long day, you may want to consider CBD oil. CBD oil is great because they are easier to administer and dose. Use the attached dropper to measure the recommended amount and take the oil orally by releasing the dropper under the tongue. CBD oils may also help ease pain and anxiety without the “high” people experience with high levels of THC.
Pain Relief
Muscle soreness, joint pain, and body aches are other common reasons people turn to CBD. If you are looking for relief from minor body discomfort, check out topical CBD products such as CBD salves and rubs. Topical CBD products typically use counterirritants to distract pain from the applied area. Some also have anti-inflammatory properties to reduce swelling. You can easily apply CBD salves and rubs anywhere on the body by massaging a liberal amount to the affected area until the skin absorbs it. Most topical CBD products are okay to reapply throughout the day as needed, but always consult the directions before using them.
Sleep
CBD gummies are a staple in many people’s bedtime routines. Gummies are convenient and easy to take, with each piece having a pre-measured amount of CBD. Some gummies are formulated with CBN and Delta 8 to provide a natural alternative to improve sleep, relief, and relaxation. CBD gummies may also help with minor pain relief, anxiety, and inflammation.
Skin Care
If you’re looking for a natural to improve the look and feel of your skin, consider a CBD skin care product. You can find a wide selection of skincare options to reduce wrinkles, eye puffiness, and age spots while moisturizing and nourishing your skin. Many CBD skin care products come in low doses, so they’re safe enough to use daily as part of your typical skincare routine.
Pet Support
Don’t let your cat or dog miss out on the benefits of CBD. Many pet owners find CBD treats and oils beneficial in reducing stress and anxiety in their animals. If you’re considering CBD for your pet, speak with your veterinarian to ensure it’s safe for your cat or dog. Also, make sure only to use pet-specific products, not oils and edibles marketed to humans, as they may contain unsafe additives for pets.
Understanding Dosage
When shopping for CBD products, you’ll notice that they have the amount of CBD written on the label, such as 500mg or 800mg. The number tells you how many milligrams of CBD is in the full product or a single dose. The higher the number, the more potent the CBD.
If you’re new to CBD, always start with a lower potency. If you take the recommended dosage and do not feel the desired results, you can experiment with higher strengths to determine what works best.
