Fourteen percent of Americans use CBD products, according to a 2019 Gallup poll. That may not seem like a lot, but it equates to about one in seven people in the US.
Perhaps you’re one of them, or maybe you’re hoping to join their ranks. Either way, you’re looking to find the right CBD strain for you, and scrolling through CBD products doesn’t always make it easy for you to decide.
So, here’s our guide to choosing the perfect option for your needs, including some great CBD gifts for Christmas.
Consider Terpene Content
Terpene is the aromatic element of your CBD, which is thought to give each strain its unique effects on your mood and abilities. For example, limonene is known to boost mood – it has the nickname “nature’s antidepressant” for this reason. And this sour space candy strain is known to be uplifting, too.
As such, it’s smart to do research into the different terpenes out there before you search for your perfect CBD strain. Find the one(s) that will have the effect you want, then seek out CBD products that contain it/them.
There are CBD for sleep, CBD for energy, and more. Understanding terpene profiles is the single-best way to choose a CBD strain that is right for you.
Look for Certifications
Another way to analyze a CBD product before you buy it is to ask for the certificate of analysis or the CoA. This will break down exactly what is in the CBD, the cannabinoids, and any other compounds that may appear in the product you are going to buy.
Knowing the breakdown and keeping track of it as you order more of a particular strain – can help you see how the batches change and which elements of them work or don’t work for you. If your favorite strain starts to stray from the compounds that made you feel your best, you’ll know when to find something new and exactly what to look for in your next product.
Try Industrial Hemp
If you’re a CBD newbie, experts will probably encourage you to try industrial hemp. These products are grown and created for consumer products. As such, they tend to be mild, and, therefore a great place to start if you’re experimenting with CBD for the first time.
You’ll find industrial hemp in a slew of products when you buy CBD online or in person. The mass-produced gummies, oil tinctures, and more are likely milder and the perfect jumping-off point for your CBD trials.
On that note, it’s important to try different CBD-inclusive products, too. Perhaps an edible will be the best method of delivery for you, or maybe it will be an under-the-tongue oil tincture. You won’t know until you experiment; this is just as important as trying different strains to find your perfect product.
Find Your CBD Strain
These tips can help you find your perfect CBD strain, but there’s only one way to pin down the ideal combination for you. You’ll probably have to try a few options before finding the right one, but it can really change your life once you do. So, get started today and feel better from the inside out.
