CBD is short for cannabidiol, a compound found in the cannabis plant. It’s one of over one hundred different cannabinoid that have been identified so far. Unlike the other major cannabinoid THC, CBD is non-psychoactive. CBD interacts with the human body through the endocannabinoid system, abbreviated ECS. The ECS is in charge of regulating biological functions such as sleep, our immune systems, and our mood.
No. CBD is considered to be a non-psychoactive cannabinoid so it will not get you high in the way that ‘marijuana’ or ‘weed’ (containing THC) gets you high. But CBD is known to be relaxing so many users feel a sense of subtle relaxation and relief.
Using CBD is legal in the UK as long as it contains less than 0.2% THC. As THC is a controlled substance under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971. CBD is legal in the UK as long as it has been derived from an industrial hemp strain that is approved by the UK.
Generally we recommend starting on 60mg per day. However, the amount of CBD to use depends on the purpose of use and your personal circumstances. We see others recommending to start at a lower dose and work your way up – however, this can lead you to believe that CBD does not work should you require a higher dose. We therefore recommend it is best to start from a high dose and lower it until you feel that the dosage is right for you.

The length of time it takes for CBD to take effect will depend on the route of administration. The fastest effect will be felt from smoking or vaporisation (effects felt in minutes). Topical administration of CBD will be felt quickly as well. The next fastest effect will be felt from a sublingual dosage of an oil (onset of effects in 15 – 60 minutes). The slowest effect (but the longest lasting) will be felt from oral ingestion of capsules or edibles (onset felt in 90 minutes).
