Water Soluble CBD

What Is CBD?

CBD, which is an abbreviation for cannabidiol, is one of over 100 different cannabinoids found within the cannabis sativa plant. Specifically, CBD is usually extracted from the hemp plant, which is one of two varieties of the cannabis sativa plant. It's extracted from the hemp plant as the hemp plant contains low amounts of the THC cannabinoid and large amounts of CBD. To give some context, THC is the cannabinoid in marijuana that is responsible for the psychoactive effects and the high feeling. In order to be legal in the UK, all CBD products must contain less than 0.2% THC. Research into the health benefits that CBD can provide is still in its early stages and so no claims can be made at this stage, although early signs are encouraging.

What Is Water Soluble CBD?

Water soluble CBD is CBD which dissolves in water. CBD is naturally hydrophobic, meaning it doesn't mix well with water, and given the body is largely made up of water, using a water soluble CBD product therefore provides a far greater bioavailability.

How Is Water Soluble CBD Made?

Water soluble CBD is made through using nanotechnology to break down the CBD into nanoparticles. The tiny sized particles can therefore be dissolved in water, unlike standard CBD particles.

How Does Water Soluble CBD Work?

Water soluble CBD works by being able to be absorbed by your body much faster thanks to its nano-sized particles. Nanotechnology is used to break down the CBD into these tiny particles, and this means they can be absorbed much quicker than the standard particles seen in other CBD products.

What Is The Benefit of Water Soluble CBD?

Water soluble CBD carries many of the same great benefits that CBD oil carries. One major benefit of water soluble CBD though is that it can be more easily mixed into your favourite foods and drinks. This makes water soluble CBD products a great choice for people who don't like the natural taste of CBD. A second benefit of water soluble CBD is that its water soluble nature means it can be absorbed by the body far more efficiently, this is known as its bioavailability. With water soluble CBD you completely absorb the full amount that you consume, but standard CBD oils are fat soluble and therefore not completely absorbed. This means you get far more bang for your buck with water soluble CBD.

Is Water Soluble CBD Better Than CBD Oil?

Whether water soluble CBD is better than CBD oil is completely down to personal preference. Water soluble CBD does have benefits in that it can be mixed with foods and drinks far more effectively, and so if this is how you wish to take your CBD then we would recommend a water soluble option. As well as mixing with foods and drinks more easily, it also has a greater bioavailability than CBD oil when ingested. It can therefore be a much cheaper option than using CBD oil.

What Is The Difference Between Full & Broad Spectrum?

Broad spectrum CBD products have the THC cannabinoid compeltely removed during the extraction process, whereas full spectrum products contain the full sprectrum of natural cannabinoids and terpenes. Broad spectrum products are therefore favoured by those who wish to avoid THC completely. Some users of full spectrum products believe the THC and CBD work together to provide a greater effect than CBD would have on its own, which is known as the entourage effect.

How Long Does Water Soluble CBD Stay In My System?

Everyone’s bodies are different and will react to CBD differently due to their height, weight and various other factors. Typically, you can expect a CBD soluble to stay in your system for 2-5 days but some people with a slower metabolism could expect to see it remaining in their system for weeks.

Is Water Soluble CBD Legal?

Water soluble CBD products are 100% legal under UK laws. This is due to their extremely low or lack of THC content. THC is the psychoactive substance found in the cannabis plant and is the illegal part. Under UK laws, CBD products sold in the UK should contain less than 0.2% THC. All of the products we sell here at The CBD Planet UK adhere to these strict guidelines.

Is CBD Safe?

Yes, CBD has been classified as safe for human consumption by the World Health Organisation. There have been no recorded serious side effects of CBD consumption, but minor side effects such as drowsiness and diarrhea may occur, usually only when too much CBD is consumed. It's therefore important to start with a low dosage if you're just starting your journey into CBD. We would also recommend you consult your doctor or a healthcare professional before you begin taking CBD, just to ensure CBD is right for you. The reaction between CBD and certain prescription medications may not be known, and so it is important you confirm if it's right for you.

Will Water Soluble CBD Get Me High?

No, water soluble CBD will not get you high. CBD is often falsely assumed to get people high thanks to its close association to cannabis, but it contains nowhere near enough THC in order to do so. CBD products can only contain up to 0.2% THC, and so with such a small amounts of THC you can consume your CBD products in confidence knowing you will not get high.

Will CBD Show Up On A Drugs Test?

It is extremely unlikely that consuming CBD would cause you to fail a drugs test. When you take part in a drugs test you will be tested for a range of substances including class A and B drugs which are illegal in the UK. The substance in CBD which would appear on a drugs test is THC, but, as CBD products must contain less than 0.2% THC then such a small amount is extremely unlikely to be detected by a drugs test. You would need to consume a very large amount of CBD in order to fail a drugs test, an amount which would likely be impossible to consume. However, you should take CBD at your own risk.
