• Honest, Trusted, and Established

Oil tinctures are administered by using a dropper to deliver drops sublingually (under the tongue) as the area under your tongue contains a rich source of blood vessels.

Sublingual administration allows the CBD to travel through these blood vessels and capillaries, bypassing the gut and liver and facilitating the rapid absorption of the CBD into the bloodstream. Ideally, the tincture should be held under the tongue for 90 seconds to two minutes to allow it to be absorbed effectively.

Cannabinol (CBN) has sedative effects so it's considered mildly psychoactive, in that it is very calming in low doses and acts as a sedative in higher doses.

The CBN + CBD are two separate parts of our Calming/Anxiety Oil Tincture formula. In fact, in this blend, you get an effective split of 1000mg of pure CBD and 500mg of high-potency CBN.

What is CBN?

Cannabinol (CBN) is one of the minor cannabinoids of the hemp plant. Similar to CBD, it’s non-psychoactive in that it doesn't get you "high" however, it will affect your brain—in this case positively. Working to bind to key receptors in your brain, CBN helps produce a calming effect in the brain, making it easier for you to feel calm and/or get some sleep.

What is the "entourage effect" from CBD and CBN?

The “entourage effect” as it’s known, is the group effect that comes when the body takes in all the natural cannabinoids of hemp. These include (but are not limited to) CBG, CBN, CBC, CBD-V. When two or more of these chemical compounds get together, they feed off of each other producing a stronger effect in the body and the mind.

How to take CBD oil for sleep?

When it comes to dosing, things can often get a bit confusing. Regardless of the type of CBD product you have, you’ll want to start off low and then slowly increase/decrease your dosage to find out what works best for you. Because CBD intake is a very personalized process, at the end of the day, your CBD experience will be based on a variety of unique factors such as your weight, metabolism, age, genetics, product type, concentration, and more. For example, because CBD is fat-soluble, a heavier set person may see improved results as the oil becomes absorbed into the body’s excess fat cells more readily. So, when finding your ideal CBD intake schedule, start small and work your way up.

When to take Calm/Anxiety Blend oil for Sleep?

It depends. When you feel like you’re ready for bed and you need a little help to tire you out, try a few drops sublingually (under your tongue) to start you off. Make sure you let the oil suspend under your tongue for one minute for best absorption. It can take anywhere from 30-90 minutes to feel the full effect. If your first dose doesn’t seem to be quite enough (or too much), use a bit more (or less) the following night. Just remember, dosing is very personal since everyone’s body is different.

We don’t recommend using this product before you plan to drive or operate heavy machinery. This combination could be dangerous, so only use our calming/anxiety tincture when you’re settled and ready to relax and/or sleep.

When to take Calm/Anxiety Blend oil for Anxiety?

We recommend starting with a low dose and work your way up to what works perfect for you. Take as needed when you feel anxiety creeping up.

FOR PEOPLE: Dosing Guidelines for CBD Tinctures – How do I take it and how much?

You can use CBD oil by applying it directly under your tongue, also called sublingually (that part of the mouth is a capillary-rich area and is the fastest way to reach your bloodstream next to IV). Hold it there for 30-60 seconds before swallowing and no drinking/eating for at least 15 minutes.

Most humans will experience the best results when taking around .25mg of CBD per pound per day. Our recommendations should only be a starting point though – you know yourself better than anyone, so what’s perfect for you may be different for someone of the same size.

Our tinctures are packaged in 1oz/30ml bottles, so each bottle contains approximately 30, 1ml oral syringes (included). So, the “approximate” starting dosage of CBD per 1ml oral syringe of our tinctures is as follows:

• Our 1500mg Full Spectrum CBD Tincture (which is best for people in pain and discomfort, stress, and much more) contains 50mg of FSO in each 1ml oral syringe.
• Our 1500mg Calming/Anxiety Blend contains 33.3mg of Pure CBD isolate (cannabidiol, most recognized for its medicinal properties) and 16.7mg of CBN (cannabinol, most recognized as the cannabinoid that aids in calming anxiety, resting and/or sleeping, pain relief, and much more). If you’re taking our Calming/Anxiety Blend as a sleep/relaxation aid, take your dose 30-60 minutes before bed. If you’re using it for anything other than a sleep aid, start on a day when you can hang out at home to monitor your body’s reaction and so you know before carrying on a typical day at work (or whatever you might do on a regular day) so you will know ahead of time if you need to dose up/down.
  • Because both of our CBD Tinctures contain the same collective number of cannabinoids, our dosage guide will mirror each other:
    • up to 125lb = .5ml - .75ml / day
    • up to 150lb = .75ml - 1ml / day
    • up to 175lb = 1ml – 1.25ml / day
    • up to 200lb = 1.25ml – 2ml / day
    • 200+lb = 1.5ml and up / day

Tips:

• Start Small – We recommend starting with smaller doses and gradually increasing as needed. Although too much CBD won’t cause any harm, taking more than you need would just waste product and money.
• Like diet and exercise, CBD routines work best when you incorporate them into your everyday lifestyle on a regular basis. We recommend making CBD part of your daily routine to allow it to build up in your body and produce the long-term results you are looking for.
• CBD can be taken with food or without food, however taking it with food can cause the body to absorb the CBD more effectively than when it is taken without. *Be aware that fatty foods or drinks, such as whole milk, and alcohol can also make the body absorb more CBD.
