CBD Capsules

The last few years have marked a major turning point for CBD; where the use of CBD oil in particular has gone from being surrounded by stigma and taboo to becoming completely acceptable in society. This is due, among other things, to the fact that more research has been done in the area, and the various producers of CBD have done a great job of informing about their products, as well as the benefits associated with the body consuming and absorbing cannabinoids. For a long time, CBD oil has been the preferred method of consumption, but not everyone likes the texture of the oil, as well as the taste it leaves in the mouth. Here, CBD capsules can be a good alternative, since when consuming CBD capsules, you still consume the oil, but without noticing anything about the consistency and taste. If you have not yet become acquainted with CBD, whether it is in oil or capsule form, then we have in the following, tried to collect all the most important information about CBD for you.

What is CBD Capsules?

CBD capsules are simply CBD oil in capsule form. Instead of having to drip the oil under the tongue and then swallow it, the capsules make it easy and quick to take your daily dose. Overall, there are many benefits to using CBD in capsule form, and for those new to CBD, it may be the best way to be introduced. The oil has a relatively thick consistency, as well as a plant-like aftertaste, which is not in everyone taste and may be what deters some from using CBD as a natural dietary supplement. So, if you consider CBD oil, you should at the same time consider CBD capsules.

CBD is a cannabinoid derived from the Cannabis plant, and it contains a multitude of different vitamins, minerals, proteins and important fatty acids. This is the reason why so many have gradually started to use it in their everyday life, either as a dietary supplement or to alleviate various symptoms in connection with diseases or disorders. Whether you choose to use CBD in oil or capsule form is secondary, as Canavita's capsules contain the same oil and you therefore get the same results as if you used the oil. To sum up, CBD capsules are a really good way to get your daily supplement of natural CBD.

What are CBD Capsules Benefitting For?

There are many benefits when using CBD capsules. CBD in general can help alleviate various types of symptoms, just as it can have both an anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effect. It is important to emphasize that CBD cannot cure diseases, only help to make them more tolerable. An example of this would be cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is an incredibly stressful treatment in relation to what it does to the body. One of the effects of this treatment that many suffer from is nausea and lack of appetite. There are many here who have good experiences with CBD.

However, pain relief and symptom management is not the only area where CBD capsules can be justified. The CBD extract, which becomes the oil the capsules contain, is incredibly rich in various types of vitamins and minerals. In addition, it also contains various proteins and two of the most important fatty acids that the body needs, Omega-3 and Omega-6 respectively. CBD is in many ways nature's own vitamin bomb. By consuming. CBD capsules, or oil, once or twice daily, preferably morning and evening, gives your body pretty much everything it needs to return to a natural state of balance.

CBD Capsules: Dosage and Content

Before we delve into how to dose CBD, read our dosing guide for an example of how to dose CBD. When it comes to CBD capsules, it is important that you adapt your dose to your individual needs. There are several factors to consider when it comes to finding just the right dose. It can, for example, be one's weight, metabolism or any forms of medicine that one is being treated with. By including these various factors in your calculations, you can more easily and quickly find exactly the dose that is most suitable for your individual needs.

At Canavita, we advocate of using the titration method, which in its simplicity means that you start with a minimal dose, then gradually increase it until you achieve the desired effect, and thus find the most effective dose. This method also reduces the risk of experiencing some of the side effects that can occur with excessive doses of CBD. Once you have found the right dose, it will be the one you have to deal with, regardless of whether you use CBD capsules or oil. In case of major weight loss and other changes in one's body or the end of medical treatment, it may be necessary to adjust the dose.

Canavita's CBD capsules contain 20mg CBD per capsule, and each glass contains 60 capsules. If you have to compare with our CBD oil, then each capsule corresponds to a certain number of drops of our different oils:

  • 1 capsule = 14 drops 10% oil
  • 1 capsule = 7 drops 20% oil
  • 1 capsule = 5 drops 30% oil

At the same time, Canavita's CBD capsules are so-called Lipsomale (Licaps Liquid) capsules, which are 100% vegan and organic. In addition, they are biodegradable and UV resistant. Unlike traditional capsules, liposomal capsules are better suited to contain oil, and so they are more effective in terms of releasing the CBD dose.

CBD Capsules Effect - How Fast Does CBD Work?

In the same way that one's weight, metabolism and other personal factors affect the what dose is beneficial, these factors also affect the time period whithin CBD capsules begin to have the desired effect. As a starting point, the effect should occur within 1 hour. The reason for this must be found in the fact that, unlike oil, CBD capsules must first pass through the body's digestive system before they are broken down and reach the body. Once that has happened, you can count on the effect to last somewhere between 5-10 hours, depending on the various factors mentioned above. This is also more effective than oil, which often works somewhere between 3-5 hours.

If you take the greater effectiveness into account, then it is actually better to use CBD capsules, as you get a longer-lasting effect. From an economic point of view, in most cases it also pays better to use CBD capsules instead of oil. However, it is important to remember that the above example of how long the capsules work may vary from person to person; as the time it takes the body to break down the capsules is determined by the various factors also mentioned above, such as it can be affected by one's current state of healing, medical treatment or other factors.

Can One Take Too Many CBD Capsules?

One of the great advantages of CBD capsules, in the same way as with the oil, is that it is close to impossible to take a dangerous or fatal dose. Since the body's endocannabinoid system, which CBD interacts with, is not related to one's lung and heart function. To date, there are no reported cases of death related to the use of CBD. When consuming large amounts of CBD, you can instead experience various side effects, such as e.g. nausea, dizziness or diarrhoea. Considering the consequences that too high a dose of some types of over-the-counter and prescription medicine or dietary supplements can have, CBD seems harmless.

Side effects when taking CBD capsules are fortunately rare. Most side effects occur when people are starting out with too high a dose of CBD. Generally speaking, side effects primarily occur when using CBD oil at too high a dose; therefore, if you use the correct dose, which is best suitable for your individual needs, the chances of experiencing any side effects are minimal. So, there is minimal risk of experiencing side effects if you use the so-called titration method and thus start with the lowest dose before starting to work your way up to the ideal dose. As a starting point, you should not be worried about experiencing side effects.

Are You Permitted To Drive a Car After Intake of CBD Capsules?

When it comes to CBD capsules, and the oil they contain, there will naturally be some who think; that it cannot be legal to drive if you have consumed oil from the Cannabis plant. However, when it comes to CBD in Denmark, we have some of the strictest rules and regulations when it comes to CBD products. First of all, it is an ultimate requirement that a CBD product does not have a THC content higher than 0.2%. All products with content higher than this are illegal. In addition, there are also a multitude of other requirements and regulations that a CBD product must meet.

The reason why there is such a focus on the THC content is because, unlike CBD, THC is psychoactive. In other words, THC is the cannabinoid that produces a euphoric effect. For that reason, a limit has been set at 0.2%, as it has been concluded that this limit means that there is no chance whatsoever of getting high when consuming the product. So if you consume legal CBD capsules that comply with all the various requirements and regulations, then you may drive a car after consuming the capsules. If you are dependent on your car, then you do not need to fear losing your driving license by consuming CBD capsules.

Where Can You Buy CBD Capsules?

It is nearly impossible to buy CBD capsules other places than on the internet. There is a multitude of ​​different online stores that all offer different types of capsules, oils and other CBD products, which means that you have many options. Overall, there are many advantages to shopping online, but when it comes to CBD capsules specifically, there are some different factors, that can make it a bad experience, when shopping on the internet for this specific product.

It is important to be careful if you have to buy CBD over the internet for several different reasons. First of all, there is the chance of being cheated by fake sites. CBD capsules offers; that sound too good to be true, usually are. You should therefore always shop on a recognized and approved CBD shop, such as Canavita.

By shopping in a recognized and approved CBD shop, you can be sure that you will not be cheated for your money.

You are also in a better position in relation to any complaints, right of withdrawal or other factors that cause a problem with your package. This does not only apply to the purchase of CBD capsules, but to shopping online in general. However, CBD traders are in many cases more exposed, because the product they buy must meet some strict requirements in order to be bought legally in Denmark. All CBD products with a THC content of over 0.2% are basically illegal to buy, so it is therefore something that you have to pay extra attention to. In addition, you may also find that the product you have purchased does not live up to the quality you expected.
