How Are CBD Oil and CBD Edibles Different?

Posted by Collin Land on

CBD oil and CBD edibles offer the same benefits for one’s body pain, anxiety, stress and sleep disorders. The primary differences, beyond one being a liquid and the other being food, come down to things like dosages, how long each takes to metabolize and personal preferences like taste and versatility.

Can CBD Get You High?

While cannabidiol (CBD) comes from the cannabis plant, it does not make users high. The psychoactive ingredient in marijuana, THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), is not present in pure CBD products. There are trace amounts of THC in full-spectrum CBD products, but Revana Collective uses a highly effective THC removal process to ensure there are not even trace amounts of THC in our products.

What Are the Benefits of CBD?

Body Pain

Many people use CBD to alleviate painful arthritis symptoms. The efficacy of CBD’s pain-relieving properties varies from person to person. Its effects can be cumulative, meaning you should begin a regular regimen at an appropriate dosage to find out if it helps with your pain or inflammation. Research suggests that CBD can be helpful for managing arthritis discomfort for some sufferers.

Anxiety/Stress

Normal levels of anxiety and stress are important defensive tools that help alert people when something feels wrong. High levels of chronic anxiety or stress can be overwhelming and hinder a person’s ability to function normally. Constant exposure to negativity in the media or online can amplify everyday stress and anxiety. Evidence indicates CBD’s calming properties help people cope with anxiety and stress.

Sleep

Some people fall asleep as soon as their head hits their pillows, but many are not as fortunate. Whether the challenge is falling asleep or staying asleep, a lot of people struggle to get the recommended eight hours of rest each night. Current research suggests CBD helps combat sleep disorders like insomnia.

What Are the Differences?

CBD Edibles May Have Inconsistent Dosages

Typically, CBD oil is administered under the tongue so an easily measured dose can be absorbed quickly. CBD edibles are trickier because the dose is consumed and metabolized gradually. Depending on the product, it can be difficult to gauge exactly how much CBD you’re consuming in each bite.  

CBD Edibles Are Slower

CBD oils do not take long to absorb and enter the bloodstream, whereas CBD edibles take a bit of time because the food must be broken down before it enters the blood. CBD oil is much more efficient for those who want fast results.

CBD Oils and CBD Edibles Have Different Flavor Options

A lot of people do not like the earthy taste of plain CBD oil, so they turn to CBD edibles like gummies and lollipops to help mask the taste. However, some CBD oils are available in a variety of flavors, so there is something for everybody. Revana Collective’s CBD drops include:

  • Revive Drops, which are lemon flavored and help with body pain
  • Renew Drops, which are berry-flavored CBD drops for overall wellness
  • Calm Drops, which are bergamot flavored and combat anxiety and stress
  • Dream Drops, which are peppermint flavored and improve sleep

CBD Oil Is More Versatile

Some CBD edibles like gummies can be discretely eaten without drawing much attention. However, there’s not much you can do with an edible other than eat it. CBD oil is more versatile because it can be added to beverages or food in addition to being taken in drop form.

Do I Need a Prescription for CBD?

You do not need a prescription for CBD oils and edibles, but it may be beneficial to consult with your primary care doctor before taking CBD to make sure CBD is a good fit based on your medical conditions.
