How To Use CBD Vape / E-Liquids

With the popularity of e-cigarettes, vaping (inhaling the vapours) is becoming a popular way of taking herbal supplements like CBD that can be directly absorbed into the body. Vaping is also one of the fastest ways of getting CBD into the bloodstream. As a result, there are many CBD products called CBD e-liquids for use in vaporisers or e-cigarettes.

The Composition Of CBD E-liquids

CBD e-liquid is a concentrated form of CBD. The product is meant for inhalation using a vaporiser, e-cigarette or a vape pen. It is also known as e-juice or vape oil. It is a health supplement. CBD e-liquids contain only insignificant amounts of THC, the psychoactive substance. They have no recreational use and are used purely to improve health.

E-liquids are a mixture of cannabis extracts or isolates, terpenes and a thinning agent like vegetable glycerine or propylene glycol. This allows the liquid to wick easily. The quality and purity of CBD oil depends on the extraction process. The most common extraction process is the CO2 method. In this process, the plant parts are exposed to pressurised warm air. This releases the plant oils containing cannabinoids. The CO2 method is superior to the other methods that use solvents to extract CBD.

Why Vaping Is A Superior Method Of Consuming CBD

In all methods of consumption, a large part of the active substance is lost during assimilation. Only a fraction of the CBD that you consume reaches your bloodstream. For its beneficial effects, CBD must reach the blood. The percentage of active substance that reaches the site of action is called its bioavailability.

Bioavailability depends on the way the supplement is consumed. For example, if you ingest CBD, the bioavailability is only about 15%. This means that about 85% of the product is lost because it never reaches the intended site of action. That’s why, most oral CBD products are taken sublingually. This allows the blood vessels under the tongue to absorb CBD without it having to go through the digestive system.

Vaping takes the CBD vapours to the lungs where it is easily absorbed by lung tissues. In the case of vaping, bioavailability of CBD is about 60%. The higher absorption rate allows you to use smaller amounts of CBD for the same health benefits. Compared to all other methods, vaping makes the CBD available in the bloodstream faster. Vape pens and e-cigarettes are also more convenient to use on the go.

Vaporiser – How It Works

A vaporiser allows you to consume volatile plant oils like hemp oil without the combustion associated with smoking. It’s the same technology that’s used in e-cigarettes. The vaping device heats the oil at a controlled temperature, just enough to vaporise the product without burning it. As the oil doesn’t burn, there is no smoke.

Vaping offers superior and faster bioavailability of CBD without the need to inhale harmful smoke. Vape oil is available as pre-filled cartridges and as bottled liquids. Liquids are meant to be filled into the chambers of vaporisers. To get the most out of your CBD e-liquid, buy a good-quality vaporiser that is designed for e-liquids. The ones that come with replaceable coils work well.

To get the best results, buy CBD e-liquids made from cannabis extracts using the CO2 extraction process. This provides the real cannabis flavour and gives superior results. Organic products without artificial flavours are the best.
