CBD users.. how long did it take for you to notice an effect? if any?

Jimerson

For me it was 2-3 days taking one 1500mg soft-gel a day before I noticed a huge impact on my mental wellness.

When I use the CBD freeze roll-on for knee or other aches, it takes about 2 minutes lol. That stuff is magic. 🙌

What CBD products do you use and how long did it take for a noticeable effect? I ask because I have seen some people have their CBD for less than 2 days and they complain that it doesn't work for them..

Jimerson

Oh also, if you use the oil, what is your preferred method? Edible? Vape? Soft-gel? Straight oil?

few things on CBD and would also ring true for cannabis oils and products..if you take the right dose for your ailment you will know with the first few uses. (ive been using cannabis and hemp in practice for decades (and personally for 30+ years) with that said it also depends on the product..are we talking CBD oil like TGN sells, concentrated CBD oil or products etc.

as for delivery..so many products so many solutions I dont claim to know them all

caveat..some things, even CBD products you should NEVER , ill say it again NEVER vape or smoke. (like TGN's CBD oil NEVER SMOKE OR VAPE THAT :) )

many factors go into absorption and bioavailability..your own body, your own metabolism, your own liver health to name a few. Understanding the bioavailability of hemp products and your body will help in deciding what product and delivery method is best for ones given condition :)

eating it is the most effective way to use medicine (medicine vs cost) and the best bioavailable percentage of the herb and you will see benefits for hours plus you get your first pass metabolism (this is one of the best ways for serious disease and issues IMHO), secondly would be using suppositories or buccal method (interesting thing to note if using cannabis oil suppositories will NOT get you high) smoking it is the least absorbable at about 10% of total cannabinoids absorbed.

What you eat will also highly affect and effect the CBD used.

That roll on product from TGN is amazing and works fast..I use it in practice daily and on myself often lol :)

NOT all CBD is created equal, not all products even have CBD in them when tested so when people say it doesnt work, they usually either 1, have a subpar product, 2. are not taking enough of a good product (there is a method to dosing) or 3. expecting a feeling or something you would get from pharmaceutical relief.

there is a method to getting hemp CBD oil to work fast and effectively

Happy Healing

Wonderfully insightful response, @Heather Duro ! I had actually not heard of taking these oils as suppositories. Is there any benefit to doing that over just eating it?

H_D

I think eating it is best overall however, suppositories wont get you high so when using cannabis oil or RSO and you dont want to be high even taking 1000 mg of oil rectally wont get you high..easy way for day time dosing ...when there is a medical issue we tend to stick to get it as close as possible..so anything from the waste down I always offer suppositories as an option.

Again though depends on what you mean by "these oils" hemp CBD oil isnt the same as CBD oil that is a concentrated product they are both oils though. It can get confusing lol

Thanks again for the great info!

I used 3 different types of CBD oil for relief from pain. I need replacement on both knees,but insurance says I'm to young(54). I used drops under the tongue and a salve. They took the edge off of pain so I could sleep,before using it I didnt get much sleep. I had the round of 3 shots per knee and cortisone per knee. That only lasted 2 months,hence trying CBD. I'm currently back on meds through doctors until I can find something that works good.

Jimerson

Hi @Midge , just curious if the CBD freeze roll has done anything to ease the pain in your knees at all, if you've tried it?

Cherlynn

It did nothing for me except it ruined my liver. If you have problems with your liver stay away from CBD oil! It really screws up your liver!

Joel

Heather, please elaborate on the difference between hemp CBD oil and CBD oil.

I tried CBD oil under the tongue for two months. I also tried antiaging cream. I had no results, positive or negative. I started out with a few drops drops and worked my way up to 20 drops /per dose which was the recommended amount. I had hoped it would help me with chronic headache pain but I was out of luck. It was a complete waste of money.

I make, use and sell CBD Infused topicals and sublingual oils. I take the sublingual oil everyday and find it helps greatly with my anxiety And overall well-being. I sleep better. And the topicals are amazing for pain, headaches and skin irritations. I have lots of people taking my oil and using my topicals with great results💜🌿

Midge

Lisa Karre,do you have a site to order from?

Most of these comment dates are older, hope I can join in. I've tried CBD products and I say that they work. I have horrible neuropathy pain in my feet. I use a topical cream and oral CBD. Together, these help decrease to completely make the pain diappear.

@GayleChany I picked up some 500 Topical Cream (Ultra Concentrated CBD Hemp Oil) by American Shaman.

For headaches, I was told to rub a small amount of the cream into the skin behind both ears and also a small amount in my "third eye" position on my forehead. It works for my regular headaches 98% of the time. The small failure percentage is for those headaches that return and need more product.

Those times I notice a migraine coming on, it is too late for subtle treatments and I am forced to use painkilling drugs.
