CBD Gummies Effects – How To Use In The Most Effective Way

You may have heard about CBD from family or friends and the benefits of bringing these natural CBD gummies into your life has to offer.

But, while interested, you may feel you need to learn more about the effects of CBD gummies and how they will make you feel, and what CBD does. We’re here to do our best to try and fill you in.

CBD Gummies Effects and Benefits - How Does CBD Make You Feel?

Most people would describe the effects and feeling of taking CBD gummies as calming, both for the body and the mind.

CBD settles your thoughts and allows you to focus, but also gently relaxes your muscles and body. In short, it chills you out.

For some people, CBD gummy's benefits offer relief from pain. Others use it to ease symptoms of sleep deprivation, stress, depression, and anxiety — without the feeling of being “high.”

So, you may feel mellow, experience less pain, be more comfortable, and sleep better at night.

However, it really does depend on what CBD gummy product you'd like to take.

Where your CBD experience goes from there kind of depends on what other ingredients are in your CBD gummies.

There are CBD gummies for energy and focus, such as gummies that combine the calm-mindedness of CBD with other ingredients, like CBG, and focus terpenes and caffeine.

Terpenes are pungent compounds that plants produce to repel pests and attract pollinators. CBD terpenes have potential therapeutic benefits and therefore can enhance CBD gummies' therapeutic effects.

On the other end of the spectrum, there are CBD sleep gummies, with ingredients like CBD + CBN and CBD Gummies with Melatonin for Sleep, that take relaxing CBD and add to it restful ingredients like CBN, the “ultimate relaxation cannabinoid,” and a slumbertime fav, melatonin. 

And there are other types of CBD gummies, as well, with ingredient profiles targeting minor pain relief, arthritis, anxiety, relaxation, general wellness, and other uses. 

How Can I Start Using CBD Gummies In The Safest, Most Effective Way?

First off, it's really important to seek out a high-quality product, from a reputable brand where you can be assured that you're getting what's on the label.

There’s no standard dosage that works for everyone. In order to gain maximum efficacy of CBD, gummies would require factoring in the potency, body weight, body’s sensitivity to CBD, metabolism, the problem being addressed, the stage/intensity of the condition, desired effect, and individual body chemistry. 

Because it takes time for edibles to work their way through the digestive system, users may not experience their effects for at least 30 minutes to 2 hours and may be inclined to take more than their recommended dosage.

Even though CBD is generally safe to consume, it’s important to bear in mind, that taking too much has been proven to cause common side effects like changes in mood, such as irritability or agitation and appetite changes on top of drowsiness and sleepiness.

Start with a low dose and work your way up. Experiment to find out what works best for you. There’s no single optimal dosage that works for everyone.

Begin with 5 to 20mg daily. Take this for a week to ensure that it is well-tolerated and that no adverse effects occur.

If this dose is ineffective, consider boosting it in 5mg increments per week until you reach the target dose.

Each individual will have a different reaction to different dosages. The proper dosage depends on your tolerance, health, and your individual body chemistry.

Additionally, if a person decides to try CBD gummies, they should ensure that they purchase these products from a reputable source and discuss taking CBD with their healthcare provider.

This is to verify that the CBD will not impact any other medicines a person is currently taking or cause any adverse effects.

What Are Some Risks Of Taking CBD Gummies?

Although CBD is generally considered a very safe substance, it is not risk-free:

• Medications: CBD is unsafe when combined with some pharmaceutical medications.
• Alcohol: Use of CBD with alcohol increases the risk of sedation and drowsiness, which can lead to injuries.
• Keep out of reach of children and pets.
• Do not use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• Not intended for use by anyone under 18 years of age.

CBD Gummy Side Effects

The side effects of CBD gummies can last anywhere from a few hours to a few days. These side effects can be mild to moderate and can include:

• dry mouth
• drowsiness and lightheadedness
• low blood pressure
• changes in appetite
• changes in mood

Also, many CBD products do not undergo regulation by the FDA. As such, some CBD products may contain other ingredients, such as above the legal limit of THC, pesticides, heavy metals, bacteria, or fungi. That is why to always read the COA (third-party lab test).

How Can I Be Sure I Get The Best CBD Gummy Product?

1. Look for products that are clearly labeled with the amount of CBD and THC per serving, and a list of ingredients.
2. Verifying that a CBD company has had its products tested by a third-party laboratory can help you ensure that a product is safe and matches its description.
3. Seek out companies that are using hemp that is grown sustainably within the United States. These are required to meet quality-control standards determined by the USDA. 
4. No outrageous medical claims. Research, as well as personal accounts, make it clear that CBD is a remarkable compound, but it's not approved as a medical treatment by any government agency.
   
   That means it falls into the same category as vitamins and other supplements, and no company can legally claim that it treats or cures any medical condition.
5. Read Reviews. Reviews are another excellent way to check the quality, safety, and effectiveness of a CBD brand.
   
   In particular, we recommend checking the product reviews on the company’s website and reading both the negative and positive feedback from actual users to get a good understanding of the brand’s potential strengths and weaknesses.
