CBD Tinctures vs. CBD Softgels: Which Product is Right for You
So you're ready to try CBD, but you may be curious about the best approach and, more specifically, which CBD product is right for you?
With a wide variety of different CBD products readily available for you to start using, our primary concern is that the product you use on your wellness journey is effective and safe.
Here we will break down everything you need to know to decide which product is going to be right for you.
What is a CBD Tincture?
The word ‘tincture’ describes any medication kept in an alcohol arrangement.
In the lab, CBD tinctures are created by immersing cannabis flowers or isolates in a high-proof grain alcohol arrangement. Applying low heat for a substantial length of time enables the active compounds in cannabis to infuse into the neutral spirit before sub-sequentially being boiled off.
What is a CBD Softgel?
Soft-hearted CBD softgels are made in a similar way to regular CBD oils — by extracting the ingredients from hemp and suspending them in a savory gel capsule.
MYCBD CBD softgels contain Zero (0.0%) THC — and are not only convenient and swallow-friendly, but also dosage ready. Each capsule contains the same fixed amount of CBD, so consuming the correct dosage is straightforward. .
The Benefits of CBD Tinctures and CBD Softgels
MYCBD tinctures and softgels are equally supportive of your health journey, but process in the body at slightly different rates. Let's discuss their differences and what works best into your regiment.
Our bodies have biological system, called the endocannabinoid system, or ECS, to regulate several body functions. This system consists of a network of receptors — and the human body produces many of its cannabinoids to support itself.
CBD interacts indirectly with some of the receptors in the endocannabinoid system and is useful to supporting health.
CBD tinctures and gel capsules absorb rapidly — and directly into the bloodstream.
With tinctures, you feel the benefits within 10-20 minutes, with the effects lasting 4-6 hours on average.
Softgels begin working in 20 minutes but could take up to an hour to feel the benefits and generally last 4 to 10 hours.
Taken as a tincture or softgel, you get the same dose of CBD mg for mg, so what it comes down is merely a preference and choice. Softgels may prove to be better for travel, while a tincture could suffice at home. Its completely about which experience feels better for your routine!
