CBD is growing in popularity in the UK. It has cleverly sidestepped the Psychoactive Substances Act 20161 (PSA) that came into force on 26 May 2016.
As CBD products contain little to no THC, they are therefore legal, allowing us all to make the most of its therapeutic health benefits.
Tinctures
Tinctures like our Patch Adam https://www.patchadam.com/ range are produced by steeping cannabis flowers or isolates in high-proof grain alcohol, then applying low heat to this solution. This allows the active compounds in cannabis to infuse into the alcohol, much of which is then boiled off and evaporated, leaving only the CBD. The result is a potent liquid that delivers the effects of the cannabinoid molecules without any smoking or another form of combustion.
This is by far the most popular method of consumption by those that are trying a cannabis-based product for the first time. Tinctures are a discreet way to consume CBD throughout the day in small, measured doses thanks to the accompanying pipette.
There are two main ways to consume tinctures. You can add your desired drops of oil or vegetable-glycerin based CBD extracts into your food or drinks. Or with alcohol-based tinctures, you can place a few drops under your tongue for faster absorption.
