what to look for in cbd oil

Consumers wanting to boost their general wellness have fallen in love with CBD (cannabidiol), especially CBD oil. This versatile tincture allows enthusiasts to receive the benefits of CBD by consuming it in various ways. However, not all tinctures are the same. So what makes a high-quality CBD oil? Thankfully, we’ve compiled this helpful guide about what to look for in CBD oil so that you can shop with confidence for the best tincture!

You’ll be happy to know that you won’t have to look far for a great tincture; we have one right here at Hollyweed! But what is it about our CBD oil that separates it from the rest? Let’s find out together!

What is CBD Oil?

CBD oil, also known as CBD tincture, is a carrier oil infused with CBD extract. Tinctures come in small glass bottles with a dropper cap for convenient dosing.

You can consume CBD oil in one of two ways:

  • Direct Ingestion: Drop your recommended dose of CBD oil directly into your mouth and swallow or mix it into your favorite food or beverage. You’ll feel the effects 45-60 minutes after ingestion, and they will last 6-8 hours.
  • Sublingual Administration: Place CBD oil underneath your tongue, hold it there for at least 60 seconds, and swallow. This method has the fastest onset of effects (within 15 minutes of administration) because it utilizes the many glands underneath the tongue for quicker uptake. The effects will last 4-6 hours.

How Is CBD Oil Made?

The first step in making CBD oil is to extract cannabidiol from hemp, a cannabis plant with high concentrations of CBD and very low THC (0.3% or less). Reputable brands like Hollyweed use a safe and clean CO2 extraction method to obtain sufficient CBD to make their tinctures.

The resulting CBD extract is then combined with a plant-based carrier oil to make CBD oil. While other CBD brands might use MCT oil or olive oil, we use the highly nutritious hemp seed oil as our carrier fluid. Hemp seed oil is rich in essential nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, protein, and omega fatty acids.

Is CBD Oil Legal?

Yes, CBD oil is 100% federally legal as long as it’s hemp-derived and contains 0.3% or less THC. There is no federal age limit to purchase CBD products. However, most states require you to be 18 or older. In some cases, 21 is the age limit. You do not need to obtain a special license to purchase CBD oil. Just be sure to have a valid state ID on hand.

CBD oil is legal thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, which legalized hemp and hemp-derived products throughout the United States. Although most states follow the federal guidelines for CBD products, a handful of states have stringent laws regarding the purchase of these consumer goods. Before buying CBD oil or any CBD products, always research your state laws to ensure you’re not breaking any laws.

What to Look for In CBD Oil

With CBD oil more popular than ever, it can be hard for consumers to sift through all of them to find a quality tincture. However, we’re going to make it easy on you so that you can shop with confidence. Here are some things to look for in CBD oil.

Is It Full Spectrum, Broad Spectrum, or Isolate?

You can purchase CBD oil in three formulations: full spectrum, broad spectrum, or isolate. Let’s take a closer look at what each of these forms of CBD oil contains:

  • Full Spectrum CBD oil: Contains CBD along with other naturally occurring hemp plant compounds. This includes THC, other cannabinoids, terpenes (natural plant compounds responsible for scent and flavor), and flavonoids (natural compounds responsible for pigmentation).
  • Broad Spectrum CBD oil: Contains the same constituents as full spectrum CBD oil but without THC.
  • Isolate CBD oil: Contains only CBD with no other hemp plant compounds present.

If you want to enhance the benefits of CBD, you should consume full spectrum CBD oil like the one we have for sale here at our shop. Full spectrum CBD products are the best at promoting the entourage effect. This phenomenon occurs when all hemp plant compounds work together to produce an effect greater than the sum of its parts.

For those looking to avoid THC, no matter how little the amount, broad spectrum CBD oil is a great option. However, the entourage effect won’t be as beneficial since broad spectrum products lack THC. Isolate CBD oil is perfect for consumers who only want CBD without other hemp plant compounds. Unfortunately, isolate CBD oil does not promote the entourage effect. you can also try CBD gummies.

CBD Potency

Whether you’re a newbie or a long-time connoisseur of CBD oil, there’s a potency that’s right for you. But which one should you pick? The general guidelines for CBD oil strengths are as follows:

  • Average Strength: 300-600 mg
  • Strong: 600-1,800 mg
  • Extra Strength: Above 1,800 mg

Thankfully for consumers, our Hollyweed full spectrum CBD oil is available in potencies ranging from 300 mg to 3,000 mg to satisfy everyone’s needs. Although CBD provides many health benefits to the consumer, too much of a good thing can be bad. You don’t want to take more CBD than you can handle. If you do, you might end up suffering from temporary side effects like thirst, upset stomach, and drowsiness. Always dose CBD in low amounts and gradually increase it to an optimal dose that’s right for you.

Various factors you need to take into consideration about your CBD tolerance include:

  • CBD tolerance
  • Age
  • Weight
  • Metabolism
  • Underlying medical issues

Ingredients

The ingredients in CBD oil can make or break its effectiveness and impact your overall health. That’s why you should only purchase CBD oil that contains pure, clean, and ethically sourced ingredients. You won’t have to look far; our CBD oil is made with these considerations.

Every high-quality CBD oil should be made from or contain the following ingredients:

  • All-natural ingredients
  • No artificial ingredients, additives, fillers, or harsh chemicals
  • No animal products or derivatives
  • CBD extracted from organic (non-GMO), USA-grown hemp plants
  • 0.3% or less THC

Certificate of Analysis (COA)

A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is a document provided by a third-party laboratory certifying the ingredients of a CBD product and its quality and potency. These all-important documents signify high-quality CBD oil and are typically associated with products from reputable brands. At Hollyweed, all of our products come with a COA to give our customers peace of mind knowing that they’re purchasing a safe, clean, and legal product.

Company Reputation

Brand reputation is everything, especially in the CBD business. Some ways you can determine if the CBD brands you’re purchasing tincture from are reputable or not include:

  • Inspecting customer reviews of products sold on their website
  • Researching consumer review sites like Trustpilot or the Better Business Bureau (BBB)
  • Reading reviews from third-party websites
  • Name recognition and brand awareness
