Sugar and CBD: what is it for?
Sugar in small doses can serve as a vector for CBD by improving its bioavailability and effectiveness. The pleasant taste of sugar can also mask the characteristic bitterness of CBD and, more broadly, of hemp products. Consumption is then more pleasant for some, especially if they cannot ingest “pure” CBD oil with its earthy notes and organic taste.
Sugar also helps activate certain metabolic pathways which facilitate the absorption of CBD by the body. When ingested with sugar, CBD can pass through the bloodstream more efficiently and reach cannabinoid receptors in the brain and the rest of the body. The effects are felt quickly, and they are more intense.
Now here are three ways to consume CBD with sugar.
Drops of CBD oil on sugar
You can simply apply a few drops of CBD oil directly onto a sugar cube or half a sugar cube. It’s easy, quick and effective.
Using CBD oil in this way allows for sublingual absorption of cannabidiol, where the capillaries under the tongue facilitate absorption of the product into the bloodstream. The effect is almost immediate. It is therefore a preferred method if you are looking to relieve intense acute pain. So simply place the sugar soaked in CBD under the tongue until completely dissolved.
Sweet treats infused with CBD
You can buy CBD-infused candies, chocolates or cookies from our online store.
These products combine business with pleasure, with the deliciousness of a sweet treat and the benefits of cannabidiol and other non-psychotropic cannabinoids found naturally in the hemp plant.
The effect is, however, more gradual, because the CBD must pass through the digestive and hepatic systems.
CBD drinks and syrups
You can prepare sweet drinks infused with CBD, for example tea, coffee or smoothies. You therefore have the control to personalize the flavor and concentration of CBD according to your needs.
You can finally create CBD syrups that you can add to different culinary preparations, sweet or even savory. CBD-infused syrups can be used as a topping for desserts, mixed into cocktails, or used to sweeten dishes. It’s up to you!
