Only just a few years ago, the groundbreaking health benefits of cannabidiol, otherwise known as CBD, hadn’t been explored legally. Now in 2021, CBD has become a legal, accessible solution for an array of health issues — even for your pets! Similar to cannabis, CBD has many methods in which you may reap its possible benefits.
Since legalizing, dispensaries and other retailers quickly noted that consumers each have their own, unique ways of using CBD. This can answer the question of why there are so many options on the market — though not the question of how to know which method is right for you. This blog post will go over the top 3 ways to consume CBD in 2021, as well as important details about each method that may help dictate which could be right for you.
Consumption Method #1: CBD Tincture
A CBD tincture is an alcohol-based extract, different from an oil. A sizeable margin of cannabidiol users note that they prefer using a tincture over other methods, due to its convenience and effectiveness. When taken sublingually (under the tongue) for 30-60 seconds, the liquid will diffuse into your bloodstream, where your body can then make use of it.
A tincture is great for taking CBD orally, as it has little to no taste and generally comes with a dropper, where you can easily control the amount you’re consuming. This method is considered one of the most effective due to how fast CBD is able to enter your bloodstream. If putting drops under your tongue sounds unappealing, you could alternatively pair the tincture with a snack or drink by adding a few drops to either.
Consumption Method #2: Topical Administration Of CBD
There are a variety of topical options that can be consumed through the skin — this is extremely useful to those attempting to target a specific area of the body, or who aren’t necessarily comfortable with typical ways of cannabidiol consumption. The market of topical CBD consumption has had so many exciting developments that the options seem almost endless, but we’re not complaining! Something to note when experimenting with topical administration of cannabidiol is that human skin isn’t extremely porous; it could be helpful to rub your topical into a targeted area to increase the absorption rate. Below are 3 of our favourite topical ways to administer CBD:

- Bath Bombs
- Body Lotion
Consumption Method #3: CBD Vaporizers
If you have experience in the cannabis space, you’ve most likely heard of cannabis vape pens. CBD can be consumed in many similar ways to THC, which has led to related products being created for CBD use as well. Vape pens are well known for their almost instant delivery of effects to the bloodstream — this goes for CBD pens as well. Another great reason to use a vape pen is if you experience on-the-go pain. Inhalation of CBD may not be the preferred choice for everyone, but if you’re looking to experience the optimal benefits while getting value for your money, it may be the right option for you.
To wrap up, there are a multitude of ways users may consume cannabinoid products, ranging from topical methods that are less invasive to using a vaporizer device, similar to ones that are used for THC. Each user tends to have their own favourite way to use CBD, which is why there are so many options on the market. With an online dispensary like Weed Hub, deciding between CBD products is a little easier, and a lot more fun. Visit our catalog to browse a variety of amazing quality cannabidiol products.
