CBD Softgels can take anywhere between 1 to 2 hours to take full effect. Taking the drops regularly for at least 2-4 weeks will provide the best results.

While a softgel can be referred to as a capsule, it is actually a capsule made up of a gelatin mixture within which cannabidiol (CBD) is enclosed. The gelatinous shell seals the CBD, protecting it from light and air, which can damage the oil. The gelatin is usually mixed with other compounds, such as glycerin or sorbitol.

No, our softgels contain gelatine. 

While they may be similar in form and function, there are vital differences between softgels and capsules, namely:

• Softgels are usually easier to swallow than capsules
• Capsules aren’t as good for containing oils such as CBD
• Softgels are sealed so they have a longer shelf life
• You can’t taste CBD when taking softgels, whereas you sometimes can with capsules
• Softgels are smoother than regular capsules
• It is more expensive to manufacture softgels
• Softgels absorb more quickly as they contain a carrier oil that dissolves the CBD, making them more effective.

While many more studies need to be done on CBD and its benefits, there is scientific evidence from past studies that support the many anecdotal claims made by CBD users. From the studies that have been conducted, it is clear that researchers prefer oral administration when testing the effects of CBD, especially in the form of capsules, as it is easier to measure the amount of CBD in a self-contained capsule than in an oil or tincture.

There is evidence from this research that CBD softgels have many benefits, such as:

• Easy dosing
• Potential to soothe inflammation and relieve pain
• Easy to swallow with no taste
• More effective
• Longer shelf life
• Reducing seizures
• Helping with depression and anxiety

When taking CBD softgels, always make sure you follow the instructions found on the packaging and ensure you don’t exceed the recommended dose. You take softgels by placing them on your tongue and swallowing them with water.

You can take CBD softgels anywhere, anytime. They are discreet and look like any other supplement, so you won’t have to answer any awkward questions.

Try taking the softgels at the same time every day so that your body gets into a routine and increases the effectiveness of CBD

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. 

Generally we recommend taking 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.
