What Is CBD Spray And Is It Right For You?

CBD spray isn’t quite as popular as CBD oil, vape liquid, or gummies, but it can provide its own set of advantages. How does it differ from other products and could it be the right option for you? Let’s look at what sets it apart.

CBD oil spray is similar to a breath or throat spray. Pure cannabidiol is combined with a liquid solution. The solution is used in a pump bottle so it can be sprayed directly into the mouth. At first glance, you may think this is very similar to CBD oil, which is dropped into the mouth to be held under the tongue or swallowed. Although the dosing methods appear similar on the surface, the way in which CBD is absorbed and processed by the body is different for each.

When you use CBD spray, the liquid drops do not simply travel down the throat in the same manner as CBD liquid from a dropper. This may happen to some of the spray, but most of it is absorbed sublingually. Sublingual absorption means that a substance is taken in through the mucous membranes. When you swallow CBD oil from a dropper, you are ingesting it and the absorption occurs further down in the digestive tract, where the cannabidiol is metabolized by the liver.

Sublingual absorption enables the CBD to enter the bloodstream faster. Using CBD spray can provide a speedier route to feeling the effects. This method can’t compete with the speed of vaporizing and inhaling CBD, however. Vaporizing CBD is the most efficient dosing method due to the fact that CBD enters the bloodstream by way of the alveoli in the lungs. CBD spray is still a good alternative to slower dosing methods that rely on the digestive system; the effects won’t be instantaneous, but they are comparatively faster.

CBD spray can be more discrete than vaping and it can be easier to define a dose. Using CBD spray lets you define the amount you take by the number of pumps you spray and hold in your mouth before swallowing. The dose obtained through vaping depends not only on how much vapor is inhaled, but how long that breath is held in the lungs. You can still gain a good idea of how much you’re taking, but the amount isn’t always precise.

If you’re wondering what will CBD edibles do that CBD spray will not, one of the key factors of ingesting CBD is the length of time it stays in your system. Eating or drinking some form of CBD will require a longer absorption period and slower effects, but the duration of those effects is far greater. So if you need CBD to control pain, moderate stress levels, or ease insomnia over a longer period of time, a slower, longer experience may be better.

Now that you understand some of the unique qualities of CBD oil spray compared to other options, there’s still something else you have to carefully consider: What is in that spray bottle?

Pure cannabidiol almost always must be incorporated into some solution, though CBD crumble or CBD isolate are exceptions to this. You want to make sure that your CBD liquid spray includes only safe, natural, and minimal ingredients required for ease of use.

Don’t let the convenience of a CBD spray product make you complacent about what’s in the bottle. Be sure to check for a certificate of analysis and review all ingredients before you buy. Pay attention to how much of that product is actual cannabidiol and take note of everything else that isn’t. If you’re not familiar with an ingredient or additive, contact the manufacturer and ask them what it is and why it’s included.

These extra quality assurance steps will help to get the best possible CBD experience, regardless of your preferred dosing method.

Mormon Church Faces Potential Lawsuit Over Medical Marijuana Opposition

Political committees concerned with marijuana law reform in four states have waged an information war over the past year, first to qualify cannabis initiatives for the ballot, and then to support or oppose those measures in the lead-up to last week’s midterm elections. In total, over  $12.9 million in cash and in-kind services was spent attempting to convince voters about these marijuana ballot measures. Now that voters have had their say, Marijuana Moment decided to calculate how much each “yes” and “no” vote cost the committees on either side of the debate. Our calculations are based on dollars raised and disclosed before the election, since final totals of actual expenditures won’t be available until December or January reports required in the states that voted on cannabis. Michigan In Michigan, where voters approved marijuana legalization , our calculations show that the two anti-legalization committees spent about $1.28 per “no” vote, as they raised $2.37 million for ...

Could CBD Lead To The Development Of Safer Antipsychotic Medications?

Antipsychotic medications are important for managing a number of different psychiatric ailments, including bipolar disorders, schizophrenia, and even dementia. These drugs can greatly improve the manageability of symptoms that often distort one’s experience of reality. They can also create major mood disruptions and lead to a number of behavioral and emotional difficulties. Antipsychotic and anti-psychosis medications can be life-changing for people with such disorders, enabling them to live more normal and manageable lives without their symptoms taking over. These drugs work by regulating neurotransmitters in the brain so that naturally occurring imbalances and dysfunctions no longer disrupt mental and emotional processes. Often, reaching this outcome is much easier said than done; it can take a lot of time to find courses and combinations of treatments that work. It’s sometimes necessary to make adjustments to find the right balance for the individual and it’s not unusual for outc...

NY Dem Chair Warns Against Passing Voter-Supported Marijuana Legalization Bill

The head of New York’s Democratic Party said on Thursday that if the state Senate votes on a marijuana legalization bill, his party’s lawmakers run the risk of alienating voters and losing reelection next year. Jay Jacobs, the state party chairman, claimed that several “far progressive” measures, including cannabis legalization, lack popularity in certain areas across the state such as Long Island and upstate New York. He cautioned lawmakers against putting the issue to a vote, arguing that voters would “throw us out of office.” “It could be the straw that breaks the camel’s back,” he told Newsday. Polling doesn’t support that conclusion, though. According to a March 2019 survey from Quinnipiac, 65 percent of New Yorkers are in favor of allowing adults to legally possess cannabis for personal use. That includes 63 percent of respondents in upstate New York and 65 percent of those living in the suburbs. Sixty-six percent of independents statewide also back ending marijuana prohibit...
