CBD Tinctures

What is a CBD Tincture?

With so many types of CBD products available on the market, it may sometimes be hard to choose which form of CBD is the right for you.

Tinctures are a popular CBD product right now, and for a good reason.

Simply put, they are a mix of hemp extract and hemp-seed oil, usually containing a certain amount of cannabidiol and a range of secondary terpenes.

CBD oils are extremely simple to use by placing a few drops under the tongue, and are the perfect starting point for new users who aren’t familiar with CBD products in general.

The dosage is very easy to adjust using a dropper, so you can adapt and determine the appropriate concentration of CBD you need in order to feel more relaxed and in touch with your body.

Is CBD  Tincture the Same as CBD Oil?

Contrary to popular opinion, tincture is not exactly the same product as CBD oil, even though they both contain CBD as their main active ingredient.

CBD oil is a thick, tarry substance that contains just cannabidiol as its base, whereas tinctures contain an additional ingredient into which CBD is infused — this can be anything from alcohol to coconut oil and even hemp seed oil. Vida+ CBD tinctures contain just full spectrum CBD and organic hemp seed oil, with no heavy metals.

That being said, there are many different types of CBD tinctures: full spectrum, broad spectrum and CBD isolate are just some of the more popular ones.

Full spectrum products contain the whole range of terpenes and cannabinoids from the cannabis plant. They are considered the most beneficial as the hundreds of minor active compounds help relieve many conditions and restore balance in the body.

Broad spectrum are pretty much the same, except they contain a bit less active compounds. And, CBD isolates contain only one compound — cannabidiol.

Benefits of Using CBD Tinctures

Cannabidiol-based oils are well researched and have many reported benefits: from relieving anxiety to establishing homeostasis (balance on a cellular level) in the body.

CBD oils have an earthy to neutral taste which makes them very easy to take and even mix with food. CBD oil tinctures don’t require any preparation and can be used discreetly anywhere. This is ideal when you need to use them on the go throughout the day.

Those who are often away from home and have hectic schedules may benefit from the ease of carrying a small bottle that can be used on the go, especially in high stress situations. Taking it after the gym or any sport efforts is also common for a faster recovery time.

CBD tinctures, when taken under the tongue, are considered very bio-available and are great in helping with stress and anxiety. Just a few drops under the tongue are enough to feel the effects in a matter of minutes.

How to Use CBD Tinctures

If you’re new to CBD, remember to carefully pick the amount of CBD you want to start with.

It is always best to start small and work your way up as needed. Basically, use a drop or two and wait for the effects. Move the dosage up or down as needed. However, we recommend you to consult your physician before using CBD tinctures, especially if you have a diagnosed medical condition.
