CBD oil is increasingly acclaimed for its benefits. Use as an e-liquid for vaping, but also as a dietary supplement to fight against stress or depression, CBD is everywhere.

Find out what its benefits are, how to consume it, and where to find it.

With some of the best online suppliers in Europe, British users can now easily find and order CBD flowers in UK. It has simplified the way to purchase high-quality CBD online, and we can now enjoy the best CBD oils.

What is CBD oil?

CBD, or cannabidiol, is part of the family of cannabinoids, a group of molecules found in the hemp plant, such as THC or CBD. We all have so-called cannabinoid receptors in our brains, which explains why these compounds have a more or less significant impact on the human nervous system.

CBD oil is extracted from the cannabis plant. It contains mostly cannabidiol, the concentration of which varies depending on the product. Today it is mainly used as an e-liquid for electronic cigarettes, as CBD oil to add in food and drinks, and CBD capsules.

While the hemp plant has been cultivated for over 6.000 years in China, it is only today that CBD oil is becoming more and more popular, as scientists discover many benefits for our organism. Indeed, unlike THC, another cannabinoid, CBD does not have psychotropic properties. For this reason, cannabidiol is also called “therapeutic cannabis”!

What are the effects of CBD oil?

Unlike THC, the effects of CBD oil are not harmful to our nervous system. CBD does not cause a feeling of intoxication or euphoria, unlike THC, and therefore no loss of control.

Conversely, it offers a feeling of serenity and a sense of relaxation. CBD is also found in recognized drugs like Cannador, Sativex, or Epidiolex.

To start with, CBD oil can help you fall asleep. If it does not have the effect of a sleeping pill, it will, however, cause your body to relax to promote falling asleep indirectly.

Likewise, CBD oil can help you not only to combat stress but also to regulate your mood. Indeed, CBD acts in particular on receptors linked to anxiety. For this reason, it is reputed to be a powerful anxiolytic and is effective in treating depression.

Note that paradoxically, CBD oil can help you fight against drug addiction since it will promote emotional balance while helping you overcome anxiety and stress, often overwhelming during withdrawal.

Finally, CBD oil can be used as an anti-inflammatory, especially in the case of Crohn’s disease, a chronic inflammatory disease of the digestive system.

How should you use CBD oil?

CBD oil is consumed orally, by placing 1 to 2 drops on your tongue or by adding them to your food or drink. The bottles sold are therefore often equipped with a pipette. After swallowing the CBD oil drops, leave it on for 30 seconds before continuing to eat or keep busy.

Please note, it is essential not to exceed 3 doses per day. If you take too much CBD oil, you risk increasing the relaxing effects and wanting to sleep! The ideal is to start with a low dosage and increase it gradually if you support it.

Also, CBD oil is not recommended for pregnant women.

Is CBD oil legal in the UK?

Cannabis derivatives do not have an outstanding reputation, in particular, because of THC, the compound which has psychotropic effects. European legislation is therefore relatively strict with cannabidiol. For example, any product containing THC is prohibited if the THC level exceeds 0.2 %.

However, products from Cannabis sativa seeds and stems are not prohibited in the UK, which explains why most of the CBD oils currently on sale come from them. Despite everything, CBD oil remains banned for minors. No law has been enacted regarding CBD oil, but case law prevails until European law issues an opinion on the subject, not always in a pleasant manner!

Where to buy CBD oil?

CBD-based products are very numerous: crystals (the purest form) for culinary preparations or other uses of this type, oil, e-liquid for electronic cigarettes, CBD flowers, CBD resins, etc. You will, therefore, have no harm to find CBD for your consumption.

On the Internet, you will mainly find CBD oil, as on the online store. You will find a whole lot of websites that are claiming to sell the best CBD products. However, you should only buy the best quality of CBD flowers and CBD oils.

Check websites such as Justbob.shop to find the right CBD products. As a leading company in Europe, this supplier from Italy is offering natural CBD flowers and great CBD oils. Also, they are following a set of many quality controls, and they are recognized by the Italian authorities, which means that they are well-known and that they are complying with local and European laws.

MUST WATCH INTERVIEW OF THE YEAR – Empower Clinics $CBDT.ca Closes Up 77% On 25M Shares. This Is Why … And This Is Where It Is Going $WEED.ca $CGC $ACB $APH $CRON.ca $OGI.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:47 PM on Monday, April 27th, 2020

With 165,000 patients, Empower Clinics (CBDT:CSE) (EPWCF:OTCQB) has a database that almost every medical cannabis and CBD company would kill for.  Patient visits increased 800% in February. 590% in March and 480% for Q1. 

More importantly, it is the only small cap company on the continent (that we know of) that is capable of launching COVID-19 Antibody Testing for individuals and businesses nationwide.  Why?  Because its simply not enough to be able to get your hands on some test kits.  The real challenge is having the infrastructure in place to test people in clinics, via drive though and in the workplace.    

It’s pretty much a military precision process that few small cap CEO’s could handle.  

But Empower Clinics CEO, Steven McAuley, is Six Sigma certified under the quality initiative of legendary GE (General Electric) Chairman Jack Welch. We’ve never seen a Six Sigma certified CEO in the Canadian small cap markets. Never …. which explains how McAuley has been able to guide Empower Clinics through the most disruptive retail environment in recent history and turn it into significant growth.  

And now he’s set his sights on Antibody Testing.  He’s not just looking, he’s already started.  

Forget NetFlix Tonight.  Watch this.

  • MOTA VENTURES REPORTS INTERIM RECORD OF 14,388 NEW NATURE’S EXCLUSIVE CUSTOMERS FOR APRIL. SUCCESS SUPPORTS LAUNCH OF CBD HAND SANITIZER

Mota Ventures Corp. had an interim record number of new customer acquisitions for the month of April, for the period April 1 to April 23. Specifically, a total of 14,388 new customers were acquired for the Nature’s Exclusive brand. This interim new customer acquisition record will be updated with the final results for the complete month of April.

In addition to the record customer acquisition number, the Company is pleased to report that each new customer spent an average of $US 151.96. Finally, the record number included 1,748 new customers that purchased products in the immune support category.

SUCCESSFUL ONLINE CUSTOMER ACQUISITION STRATEGY SUPPORTS LAUNCH OF CBD BASED HAND SANITIZER

The interim record results demonstrate the strength and ability of the Company's online acquisition strategy to capitalize on the strong demand for natural health solutions. As a result, the Company will be launching a hand sanitizer product containing CBD through its Nature's Exclusive brand on May 1, 2020. The Nature's Exclusive CBD hand sanitizer will contain 70% ethyl alcohol as its active ingredient, as well as, CBD isolate and Vitamin E, and will initially be offered only to consumers in the United States.

In order to differentiate the Company's hand sanitizer offering within this crowded space, Mota has formulated a product that is specifically designed for its target consumers by combining the antimicrobial properties of ethyl alcohol with the benefits of CBD. This ability to formulate and innovate new products of this caliber is a direct result of the Company's strong supply chain, which has continued to operate uninterrupted despite the recent worldwide turmoil.

"I am very pleased with the continued strength of our new customer acquisition month-to-date as demand remains strong for our CBD and immune products. We anticipate similar demand for our new CBD Hand Sanitizer product due to the limited availability of sanitizer through current retail and eCommerce channels. This product offering will allow us to reach a new client base, while generating significant gross margin and attracting clients to our other product lines" stated Ryan Hoggan, CEO of the Company.

The Company will be hosting an investor conference call at 2:15pm PST on Monday, April 27, 2020 with Mota Ventures management, Ryan Hoggan, CEO and Joel Shacker, President. The Company will be accepting questions from investors at the end of the call.
