If you’re new to CBD oil products, you may be wondering how many drops of CBD oil you should take. While there’s not exactly a standard answer to this question, there are some things to consider when deciding your serving size.

Before you Take CBD Oil

Before you begin using CBD oil, you should do your own research on how CBD oil can benefit you. While we cannot make medical claims, there is an abundance of research online for your convenience. Once you have an understanding of what CBD products can do for you, you can confidently proceed with using CBD oil.

Understand That Everyone is Different

Given the state that the CBD Industry is now, there are little to no standard “serving sizes” when it comes to CBD oil. What works for someone might not work for you. Everyone has a different reaction to CBD, not that it is a positive or negative effect, but how much it takes until you feel the benefits. Finding your sweet spot can take longer than you think, but don’t get discouraged!

Dispensing CBD Oil

To prepare the product for use, start by shaking the bottle to mix any substance that settled at the bottom. If you don’t shake the bottle well before use, you might end up getting a drop of pure coconut oil instead!

Once you have prepared your bottle of Tasty Drops CBD oil, squeeze the dropper to fill it with oil. Next, dispense the oil directly beneath your tongue. To allow the oil to absorb into your bloodstream, leave the oil in your mouth for about 60-90 seconds, and then swallow. Although Tasty Drops use ingredients to improve flavor, placing the drops under your tongue will prevent you from tasting any leftover earthy tones.

Your Serving Size

So, how many drops of CBD oil should I take? When you’re first using Tasty Drops CBD oil, try the recommended serving size for about a week to see how you feel. The number of CBD drops you take after that will depend on your desired effect. For a calming and relaxing effect, you might take a lower serving size of only a few drops of CBD oil. If you would like to use CBD oil to try to improve sleeping, a higher serving of CBD oil right before bedtime is the best option. The number of CBD drops you take will vary from person to person and depend on what benefits you are hoping to receive.

With the different kind of cannabis oils on the market, it can be difficult to differentiate products. It takes time to learn the specific terminology used in the industry. As a new consumer, this can be confusing when deciding which product to purchase.

In this blog, we are going to clarify the difference between three common oils:

• CBD oil
• Hemp seed oil
• Cannabis oil

These oils share similarities and, for that reason, are often confused for one another. We’ll break down the differences between the oils and discuss the benefits of each.

First, however, it is important to explain the difference between hemp and marijuana. These oils are derived from hemp or marijuana (or both). Understanding the difference between these two plants will give us a better idea of the differences between the oils that derive from them.

Hemp vs Marijuana

Oftentimes, the words “hemp” and “marijuana” are used interchangeably when, in fact, they are different plants. While they are both cannabis plants, hemp and marijuana differ in cultivation and application. Marijuana is used for recreational and medicinal use; hemp has over 50,000 applications including industrial use.

Appearances aside, the most significant difference between these plants is the level of THC. THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the intoxicating compound found in the cannabis plant. Marijuana is bred to have high levels of THC while hemp contains low levels of THC.

Under the 2018 Farm Bill, hemp and CBD are 100% legal in the United States.

The Difference Between CBD Oil, Hemp Seed Oil, and Cannabis Oil

Now that we have a clearer idea of the difference between hemp and marijuana, we can better discuss the difference between CBD oil, hemp seed oil, and cannabis oil.

CBD Oil

CBD (cannabidiol) is a compound well-known for its therapeutic properties. CBD oil contains high levels of the CBD compound and is consumed as a wellness supplement. CBD oil can be taken as is in a form known as a concentrate or can be infused into a variety of products such as tinctures and edibles.

CBD oil is derived from high-CBD, low-THC hemp. Hemp-derived CBD oil is non-intoxicating and legal to purchase in the United States without a medical card.

Why Take CBD Oil?

CBD is an active compound that supports the endocannabinoid system (ECS). The interaction between CBD and the ECS has been shown to have several benefits, as outlined in a number of studies. We encourage you to research the benefits of CBD; the information available is plentiful.

A Note About CBD Oil

CBD can be derived from both hemp and marijuana, so it is important to confirm which plant the CBD oil is derived from. If derived from marijuana, the oil likely contains the intoxicating THC compound. A reputable manufacturer will clearly state which plant the CBD is derived from.

Hemp Seed Oil

Hemp seed oil is another oil derived from hemp. As the name states, hemp seed oil is obtained by pressing hemp seeds. This oil can be found in the aisles of the grocery store and is an ingredient in a number of nutritional and cosmetic products.

While both derived from the hemp plant, CBD oil and hemp seed oil are not the same. As mentioned previously, hemp oil is a CBD-rich nutritional supplement. Unlike CBD oil, hemp seed oil does not contain the beneficial CBD compound.

Confusion often arises because both CBD oil and hemp seed oil are referred to as hemp oil. If a product is labeled as hemp oil, you can determine which oil it is by checking the label. If the product contains CBD, then it is CBD oil. Otherwise, it is hemp seed oil.

Why Take Hemp Seed Oil?

While hemp seed oil does not contain CBD, it is still a very nutritious supplement. It is a rich oil that contains essential omega fatty acids and proteins. Hemp seed oil can be added to your diet or skincare routine.

A Note About Hemp Seed Oil

Be wary of hemp seed oil products that claim to have CBD. This compound cannot be derived from the seeds and, while nutritious, will not provide the benefits you are looking for.

Cannabis Oil

Cannabis oil is also known as marijuana oil or THC oil. Oils by these names are derived from marijuana and contain the intoxicating THC compound.

Why Take Cannabis Oil?

Cannabis oil is suited for those who seek the benefits of CBD and THC. According to what is known as the entourage effect, CBD and THC work together to produce an effect greater than the compounds alone.

 

Now that we have a better understanding of these oils, we can make more informed purchases. Do you have any additional questions regarding CBD oil, hemp seed oil, or cannabis oil? Leave a comment below!

If you have done your research on CBD hemp oil, you probably know about its interaction with the endocannabinoid system. The ECS is a network in the body that uses compounds called cannabinoids to keep our body in homeostasis. CBD, or cannabidiol, is a cannabinoid that interacts with the receptors in this system to maintain that balance.

Hemp oil is a natural source of CBD. Many are beginning to use hemp oil for the positive effect that CBD has on the endocannabinoid system. Hemp oil is a good source for a variety of phytonutrients and is non-psychoactive.

Did you know that other animals, such as dogs and cats, also have a similar endocannabinoid system? With this discovery, researchers have found that CBD is beneficial for pets, too. With some minor formula tweaks to agree with animal diets, you can incorporate CBD hemp oil into your pet’s diet as well.

• 5 drops for pets up to 25lbs

• 15 drops for pets over 50lbs

How to use Tasty Drops 4 Pets

To begin, shake the product well and dispense the recommended number of drops over your pet’s food.
