A dark harbor street in Amsterdam, strange figures and clouds of cannabis smell. That was the image of hemp for a long time. But that has long since changed. Since the CBD boom at the latest, hemp has arrived in the center of society. And it is a strong economic factor, because according to Statista, market forecasts for 2023 predict a turnover of 998.4 million euros across Germany. This means that the billion mark is not far away and CBD fruit gums from pharmacies will certainly contribute to this.
They are delicious and, as the name suggests, contain the natural substance cannabidiol. They provide support in challenging situations in everyday life, such as stress in private and professional life as well as difficulties falling asleep and staying asleep. CBD fruit gums are simply placed in the mouth and from there they unfold their effects in a soothing and tasty way. CBD fruit gums are not intended as a substitute for sweets or as a snack. Many pharmacies stock them and are happy to provide advice.
CBD oil is also a very popular dosage form
The use of CBD oil is particularly traditional. This is simply dripped onto the tongue as required, held in the mouth for some time (for absorption via the oral mucosa) and then swallowed. The effects on the body are manifold, some even say promising. Of course, CBD does not replace treatment by a doctor in the event of illness. Cannabidiol oil is available in different varieties. So-called CBD isolate is particularly well known. This is pure cannabidiol that has been extracted from the plant. Known strengths are:
- 5 %
- 10 %
- 15 %
- 20 %
- 25 %
The same applies to so-called full-spectrum oil. However, the key difference is that it contains other ingredients in addition to CBD, such as
- Fatty acids
- terpenes
- vitamins
- flavonoids
- minerals
Everyone has to try out for themselves which is better. Both products can be expected to have a calming and sleep-inducing effect.
Skin care with cannabidiol
CBD is also often used in the care of our largest organ, the skin. CBD (cannabidiol) has gained a lot of attention in recent years as a versatile active ingredient in skin care. Thanks to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, CBD can help to alleviate skin problems such as acne, redness and irritation. It interacts with the receptors of the endocannabinoid system in the skin to restore balance and promote skin health.
CBD-enriched skincare products such as creams, serums and masks are becoming increasingly popular as they can soothe, hydrate and brighten the skin. However, it is important to pay attention to the quality of the products and use them according to the instructions in order to achieve the best results and avoid possible allergic reactions. But this applies to all products and not just CBD, perhaps the most popular natural product.
