If you’re asking yourself this question, you have come to the right place. CBD Ultra has been in the industry for over five years and in that time have gained a wealth of knowledge and have been industry pioneers bringing out different types of CBD products to the market.
It can be overwhelming but do not worry we are here to help every step of the way. So, where should you start? First of all, it is essential to understand the different forms CBD can come in. Ranging from tinctures (colloquially known as oil drops) to edibles, vapes and beyond there is an abundance of products out there so let us break them down.
Tinctures/Oil Drops
Tinctures or oil drops are the most common form of CBD available. They are taken by placing between 2-5 drops, depending on your dosage, under the tongue three times a day. They vary in strength. At CBD Ultra we have options from 250mg of CBD per 10ml bottle all the way up to 3000mg depending on your need. We have also created a 50% CBD oil exclusively available at For the Ageless.
Water Soluble Drops
At CBD Ultra we pride ourselves on the absolute best products. Our Bio Plus water soluble CBD drops are made using broad spectrum CBD oil with a soy base. So why would you choose these over our regular oil-based drops? Our water soluble drops have a 5 x higher bio availability. This means the absorption rate into our body is 5 x higher than regular oil drops. Our Bio Plus water soluble drops also have the advantage of being easily dissolved into food and drink making it ideal for easy on the go use with no requirement to take the drops under your tongue.
Capsules
For that daily boost of CBD, there is the option to take as a capsule. They are taken like vitamin tablets, usually with water. We would recommend these as daily supplement for otherwise healthy people. CBD Ultra’s Daily Complex Capsules contain 10mg of CBD as well as other immune boosting vitamins such as zinc, magnesium and D3. We recommend these to be taken twice a day.
Vape Oils
Vaping is on the of the quickest ways to get CBD into your bloodstream. Vaping in increases the rate of absorption of CBD which means the effects can be felt much more rapidly. Our vape cartridges are available in strengths of 100mg and 200mg cartridges. Each vape cartridge contains natural plant derived terpenes added to create a flavourful and enjoyable vaping experience while giving you a variety of flavour options to best suit your taste. Our vape oil contain no nasty chemicals or surprises just organic broad spectrum CBD oil, natural plant derived terpenes for flavour and organic fractionated coconut oil as a carrier oil. These means they should be vaped at low temperatures with a ceramic coil. Our vape pens are chosen to specially match our vape oils.
Edibles and Beverages
Edibles and beverages such as our CBD Ultra vegan gummies or our single origin Colombian CBD coffee are a perfect way to incorporate CBD into you daily lifestyle to give you that extra boost. As with capsules we would recommend these as a daily supplement for otherwise healthy people with an on-the-go lifestyle.
Topicals
Topicals are lotions, balms and other creams which can be applied directly to your body. These can be used for a variety of different reasons. From our CBD Ultra Aloe Vera Moisturiser which is designed for everyday use to our high strength balms which, research suggests, can be used to help with skin conditions such as eczema. Research suggests that these sorts of products can help with chronic pain when applied to a localized area.
So now we understand the different forms CBD can take, what else is there to consider?
Main Purpose
To get the most benefits from CBD, whatever your purpose is to endure it is topped up in your system. CBD degrades every 8 hours or so inside the human body so topping up 3 times a day will give you the most benefit. Please be aware that it can take up to 6 weeks to feel he full benefits of CBD depending on the individual.
Different CBD products are suitable for different purposes. Simply incorporating CBD into your daily lifestyle, you can use products like our Daily Complex Capsules, water soluble drops or CBD Ultra’s luxury Colombian coffee.
For skin conditions and localised pain our topicals would be more suitable. CBD has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties and that combined with the soothing nature of our lavender, eucalyptus and coconut oils in our balms could help ease any conditions you may have.
Rate of Absorption/ Onset time
The rate of absorption s how quickly your body can absorb the CBD and how quickly it takes effect. This is mainly down to personal preference and is affected by your main purpose for taking CBD. Are you taking as a daily wellbeing supplement in which case rate of absorption is less important and capsules which are absorbed through the digestion system is recommended. Or are you taking CBD for its anti-inflammatory properties in which case tinctures/oils placed under your tongue have a faster rate of absorption so the effects will be felt quicker.
