CBD sales are rife with a range of different products available to a variety of different customers. As technology continues to advance, so does manufacturing innovation. Popular methods of CBD consumption include oils, balms & vape pens.
Taste can be an important factor when choosing your favoured wellness supplements. That’s why options such as CBD sweets, chocolates & other delicious edibles have become so popular in recent years.
Why do people use CBD sweets?
The most common people have turned to edible supplements as an alternative to capsules, pills & other methods are:
- Easy to use
- Great taste (no hemp taste)
- Predetermined doses
- Smoke free
- Longer lasting effect
The great thing about gummies or other CBD sweets is that they match the physical and mental benefits that any other CBD product would provide. The difference is that edibles release slower than oils or vapes.
The great thing about CBD sweets is they fit so seamlessly into your daily routine. Instead of the hassle of trying to accurately measure dosage amounts using an oil dropper, everything is pre-measured. This makes it much simpler to integrate natural wellbeing properties such as mood balance, sleep maintenance & appetite regulation.
How consumption of CBD works
Inhaling, ingesting, topically-applying, and sublingual administration (under the tongue) are considered the more popular routes of administration for CBD products, ranging from 5 – 15 minutes. On the other hand, ingesting CBD can take anything up to 2 hours.
When you ingest a CBD sweet, it usually takes longer to release, but ultimately has a longer lasting effect. As CBD edibles go through your digestive system, they are processed over a longer period, with nutrients being absorbed at a slower speed. CBD sweets & other edibles benefit people who want their CBD to last longer, rather than faster.
What Are The Best CBD Sweets?
CBD edibles can come in several different formats, with CBD sweets, gummies & chocolates being the most popular, and the most delicious. CBD sweets are perfect for somebody looking to maintain optimum wellness whilst on the go!
The primary benefit of this is that you can them throughout the day, at your ideal time & without having to measure. This makes all edibles the most delicious & convenient way to prioritise wellness with ease.
Do CBD sweets get you high?
Whether or not CBD gummies get you high depends on two different factors: dosage and extract type.
Dosage
Full spectrum CBD gummies contain the whole hemp plant extract, meaning they come complete with hemp’s wide array of cannabinoids: CBD, CBN, CBG, THC, and more. Full spectrum CBD products are required by law to contain less than 0.2% THC. This amount of THC is very small, but if you decide to take a large dose of a full spectrum CBD product, the likelihood increases that you could experience a high feeling.
Extract Type
CBD products usually come with 3 different extract types:
- CBD Isolate
- Broad Spectrum CBD
- Full Spectrum CBD
If you are concerned about experiencing a high or consider yourself to be THC sensitive, try considering a THC-Free Broad Spectrum CBD extract. This extract contains all of the same beneficial cannabinoids and the entourage effect like full spectrum CBD, but without the THC. When shopping for CBD edibles, ensure that all products are 3rd party batch tested by accredited labs to ensure THC levels are correct.
Setyl Infusions Gummies
If you’re looking for a natural, great tasting way to maintain wellbeing with CBD sweets then look no further than our tubs of CBD gummies:
– Our Wild Cherry Gummies are 50mg each (high strength)
– Our Strawberry Rings or Apple Rings are 25mg each (medium strength)
We recommend just one of our high strength gummies per 24 hour period, or no more than two of our medium strength gummies in a 24 hour period. For other gummy products, the recommended dosage is dependent on the quality of the ingredients & the advertised potency.
If you have a craving all things sweet, you may want to use lower dosage gummies so you can eat more of them! The great thing with CBD sweets is that the choice is completely up to you. Other great edibles include chocolate, coffee, honey, coconut oil & much more!
If you really wanted to be creative, why not try adding our water soluble CBD into your cooking? Maybe infuse it into a chocolate cake? Or make your own sweets? The possibilities can be endless!
Side effects of Edible CBD
Negative side effects with the use of CBD edibles are rare & highly unlikely. CBD is a compound that has been shown to be commonly well-tolerated by a diverse array of users with various conditions.
Nonetheless, there can be signs of adverse side effects. These can include:
- Decreased appetite
- Light head or dizziness
- Diarrhoea
- Vomiting & Nausea
- Low Blood Pressure
- Drowsiness
It should be advised these are not considered common side effects of CBD consumption & generally picked up with consumers who are not familiar with nutrient dense foods, herbal medicine, or new to CBD.
