CBD Tinctures

CBD Tinctures tinctures are alcohol-based or a mixture of alcohol and water cannabis extracts. They’re typically made by saturating hemp material into high-proof alcohol, heating it for some time to extract the CBD molecules, then boiling away the alcohol. The result is a liquid that’s used to help relieve anxiety, ease pain, and improve sleep.

Tinctures are easy to use and absorbed directly into the bloodstream through sublingual absorption, bypassing the digestive tract. This results in a more direct and faster effect than oil-based CBD products, such as gummies or capsules.

When choosing a CBD tincture, you should consider the condition you’re trying to counteract and your body chemistry. A general rule of thumb is to start with a small daily dose. Often 25mg of CBD per day is enough for most average-sized people, but it’s important to consult with a Crew Member or product manufacturer for guidance.

For example, you may need to increase the dosage if you are treating chronic pain. Tinctures are also versatile, and can be added to food or drinks. Try dropping a few drops into your favorite beverage or using them to dress a healthy green smoothie or mojito. Or you can rub a few drops onto your tongue for fast-acting relief. Because they’re alcohol-based, however, it isn’t recommended to apply them directly to your skin.
