Stress, whether chronic or temporary, affects the daily lives of approximately one-third of French people*. Some have chosen to consume CBD oil to promote relaxation.
With the variety of CBD oils available on the market, it can be difficult to choose the right one to effectively meet your needs. Many consumers are asking the same question: Which CBD oil should you choose to relax? Are there any criteria to consider before purchasing a CBD oil? Délicure takes stock.
How does CBD oil help relieve stress?
CBD oil is made from vegetable oil and cannabidiol (CBD) extracts. It is a natural molecule extracted from hemp plants (cannabis sativa). It also contains other cannabinoids. Its potential benefits have attracted the interest of doctors, scientists, and consumers in recent years.
Consumer reviews of CBD oil are mostly very positive. Cannabidiol is said to be a valuable ally in promoting relaxation. When consumed, it acts directly on the endocannabinoid system and its receptors. CBD acts as a catalyst in the body and exerts an influence on the nervous system. Since CBD is considered “new” in France, it does not yet benefit from any claims, and as such, we are not allowed to say that CBD acts on stress. We cannot therefore say that CBD helps reduce stress, but only that it promotes relaxation.
This clinical study , conducted by a scientific committee in 2012, highlights the calming effects of CBD. The researchers also note that CBD and THC, although derived from the same plant (cannabis sativa), have different effects on the body. THC causes psychotropic effects that can alter consciousness and behavior. While CBD, on the other hand, is considered safe. It does not cause a “high” effect and is not addictive. By promoting relaxation, CBD is often consumed before bed.
Which CBD oil should you choose to overcome stress?
As seen previously, we cannot say that CBD oil helps to overcome stress, so we will try to find out which CBD oil to choose to relax effectively.
On the French market, you can find broad spectrum and full spectrum CBD oils. The difference between these two forms is subtle. Broad spectrum oil undergoes additional chemical extraction to remove all traces of THC (thus achieving a level of 0% in the final product). While full spectrum oil is more complete in terms of components, and may contain some traces of THC (less than 0.2% in the final product).
Regardless of the form you choose, the most important thing is to choose a quality CBD oil. Choosing a certified organic CBD oil is the best way to ensure the absence of chemicals and the quality of the cannabinoids (CBD, CBN, CBG, etc.).
In addition, you should know that CBD oils are available in several concentrations (5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 30%…). A 10% CBD oil, for example, contains 1000mg of CBD. This concentration is considered medium, it is the concentration most used to promote relaxation. For more significant effects, it is advisable to consume an oil containing 20% CBD, this is currently the maximum concentration authorized in France. The concentration will only have an impact on the duration of your bottle, only the number of drops consumed will determine the quantity of CBD and therefore the effects of the latter. Indeed, there is the same quantity of CBD in 10 drops of 10% CBD oil as in 5 drops of 20% CBD oil, so the concentration of a CBD oil will not increase its effectiveness.

Choosing a quality CBD oil is important, but so is knowing how to use it.
How to Use CBD Oil to Reduce Stress?
To promote relaxation, the best way to consume CBD oil is sublingually. Taken directly under the tongue, the product bypasses the digestive system and is therefore not broken down.
The sublingual method involves placing oil drops under the tongue using a dropper pipette. The numerous blood vessels under the tongue allow for rapid diffusion of CBD into the bloodstream. To ensure optimal effect, it is recommended to keep the oil drops in your mouth for 1 minute.
To avoid the bitterness of cannabidiol, some consumers prefer to mix the oil drops into a drink or dish. However, with this method, it will take longer to feel the effects of the CBD.
As for dosage, it depends on tolerance, body size, and personal goals. It’s generally best to start with small amounts of oil and then gradually increase until you find the optimal dose. Délicure offers a CBD oil calculator to help you get your personalized dosage. By entering your weight and the intensity of the desired effects, this tool calculates the number of drops of oil to consume.
It’s important to remember that CBD cannot replace medical treatment for anxiety disorders. In these situations, it’s best to consult a doctor.
Délicure’s organic CBD oil for relaxation
Délicure offers a to help you relax and regain peace of mind. Made in France, it contains premium CBD extracts sourced from organic hemp.
To stand out from the competition, Délicure chose to design this product with organic and natural avocado oil. This vegetable oil is particularly recognized for its numerous health benefits. The majority of traditional CBD oils are made with refined coconut oil, or MCT oil. They also contain chemicals (pesticides, fertilizers, etc.) that can degrade the quality of cannabidiol. Délicure, for its part, has selected the best ingredients to offer its customers an effective and healthy product.
In accordance with current legislation, this product does not contain any trace of THC (the molecule with psychotropic effects in cannabidiol). Although it does not pose a health risk, some people are advised to seek the advice of a healthcare professional before consuming it. Indeed, CBD can interact with certain medicinal products. In addition, cannabidiol is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women.
