CBD is the abbreviation for cannabidiol, one of the many cannabinoids, or chemical compounds, found in marijuana and hemp. You’re probably already familiar with tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, which is another compound found in the cannabis plant and its main psychoactive component.

Yes, CBD has a good safety profile, according to all available studies. Since 2016, CBD products have been prohibited from making any medicinal claims related to CBD, according to MHRA regulations. As a result, you should never purchase CBD from a store that makes any medical claims regarding it.

CBD is not psychoactive, thus it will not make you high in any amount or dose. The term “psychotropic” simply refers to a psychoactive effect with intoxicating properties. THC, a chemical found in cannabis, is responsible for the psychoactive effects linked with hemp and cannabis, and you won’t find it in Holistic Hemp Scotland CBD products in concentrations higher than 0.01%.

No, as mentioned in the critical review of CBD from the World Health Organisation, CBD does not seem to have any known addictive potential.

Technically, yes, you can give your pet human CBD oil. You can give your pet CBD oil, meant for humans, because the endocannabinoid system that humans have is a system that pets also have. That means it works in the same biological way in pet that it does in people.

Raw is a term that is commonly used to describe foods that have not been cooked. However, it can also define a material or substance in its original, unprocessed state. In regards to CBD Oil, a Raw CBD Oil will not have been forcefully heated to convert all of the acidic cannabinoids such as CBDa into their neutral forms such as CBD. This conversion is known as decarboxylation. CBDa will also decarboxylate naturally over time, hence the reason Raw CBD Oils have a balance of CBD and CBDa. We believe that maintaining this balance is a key aspect to effective CBD Oils.

The most popular carrier oil for CBD products is MCT (medium-chain triglyceride) oil, which is made from either coconut or palm kernel oil. In particular, its high absorption rate makes MCT oil a preferred option among CBD makers.

Hempseed oil can be the best carrier oil for you if you believe in the entourage effect. Although it lacks the terpenes and cannabinoids found in CBD oil, it does contain some compounds that might aid increase the product’s efficacy.

Water-soluble CBD products are better absorbed since they enter the bloodstream more quickly. For example our water-soluble CBD Capsules are more efficient than CBD oils due to their higher and simpler absorption rates.

No animal ingredients are used in any of our CBD oils, making them appropriate for vegans and vegetarians. Only responsibly produced EU hemp and a plant-based carrier oil are used to make our CBD oils (hemp seed oil or MCT oil).

Each batch of Holistic Hemp Scotland CBD are tested by an independent laboratory for purity and potency of the CBD and the results are available online on our website.

We’re proud to state that none of our CBD products have been tested on animals and are cruelty-free. This applies to all of our CBD oils, as well as our CBD Infused Foods. Our CBD Cosmetics are still fully safe and suitable for even the most sensitive skin, and they are not tested on animals.

According to our own study and customer feedback, the most satisfied consumers took an 80mg dose for 30 days in a row. Give CBD a try for at least 30 days if you are still unsure; if you are still unsure, contact our experts who will be pleased to assist you more.

When it comes to CBD satisfaction, the daily dose, rather than the strength of the CBD oil, is the most crucial component. Over the course of 30 days or more, our most delighted customers take 80mg every day. As a result, we recommend utilising a 20% Raw CBD+CBDA Oil, which provides 34 or 64 daily dosages, depending on your needs.

The difference between full-spectrum CBD and broad-spectrum CBD is simply a matter of preference. Understanding what each of these terms implies can assist you in finding the CBD product that is right for you.

A full-spectrum CBD product contains multiple cannabis plant extracts, including essential oils, terpenes, and other cannabinoids, such as cannabinol. Full-spectrum CBD products may also contain up to 0.3% of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the cannabinoid in the cannabis plant that produces the ‘high’ feeling in people.

Broad spectrum products keep the whole spectrum of cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids while eliminating all traces of THC. This form of CBD is chosen for more organic goods that seek to take use of the hemp plant’s inherent properties.

So, which is the better option? Each form of CBD, as is typically the case, has its own set of benefits. Many people prefer pure CBD, however broad-spectrum CBD is the ideal option if you want to keep the natural plant matter and use a more natural form of CBD. The safest course of action is to investigate all of your alternatives and the various CBD concentrations.

Before consuming CBD with any medication, always consult your doctor. CBD interacts with the human body in ways that need to be explored, despite the fact that it can’t be discussed in terms of therapeutic characteristics due to its current legal position.

CBD oil can sometimes change colour or become cloudy. In most circumstances, this isn’t a cause for concern. CBD oils frequently change colour to colours of pink or brown; if your CBD oil has changed colour to these shades, it is still safe to consume.

Our main piece of advice is to check what customs has to say about your travel destination.

A complete analysis of custom laws by region can be found on the Visa HQ website. Keep in mind that if you have any layovers, you’ll need to familiarise yourself with the rules of the country you’ll be visiting.

Liquid Laws

The easiest legal consideration to bring up with CBD is the restrictions on liquids on planes. The 100ml liquid rule for hand luggage would apply to most commercially available CBD products (whether they’re e-liquids, oils, or creams).

This means that any liquid bottle in your carry-on must be less than 100ml. There is some ambiguity here because drugs aren’t normally limited by this when purchased with a prescription, but if you buy CBD online or over-the-counter, you must still follow the 100ml regulation.

The legality Of THC

The presence of THC is the major concern you’ll confront when flying. As a result, CBD oil could be allowed in two countries, but with differing restrictions.

Our key recommendation is to choose broad-spectrum CBD products, which are guaranteed to be THC-free. Because THC is the principal psychoactive element in cannabis, most countries will seek to make it illegal.

One solution is to keep clear documentation of what’s in your CBD oil on you at all times. That’s why we go above and above to deliver CBD testing findings that are particular to the product you’re holding. Simply go to our lab reports page to print the results for your own piece of mind.

It’s tough to make a definitive remark on flying overseas because there are so many potential laws. Even if the country to which you’re flying has legalised CBD oil, customs inspectors may be unaware of the difference between legal and illegal CBD oils. Documentation is crucial, as it always is.

While CBD oil should be permitted on domestic flights in the United Kingdom, some personnel may not be aware of this. As previously said, our lab reports page may provide you with the facts you need to establish that the oil you’re transporting is completely legal in this country. It all comes down to miscommunication and misunderstanding. What is your most effective strategy? Being well-informed.
