Consuming CBD Oil – How do I do it?
Cannabidiol (CBD) is most commonly consumed as an oil, mixed with a carrier such as olive oil, coconut oil (MCT) or hemp seed oil. When CBD is consumed with fatty acids this maximises the bioavailability as it binds to the fat molecules during the absorption and digestion process. This same concept applies to other fat soluble vitamins such as vitamin A, D, E and K. As a general rule, consuming CBD with a fatty meal will improve absorption rates.
