Does CBD oil have an immediate effect?

In France, CBD oil has become a must-have product for wellness and relaxation enthusiasts. Today, more than 10% of the population uses cannabidiol (CBD), a compound derived from hemp , to improve their daily lives. Unlike THC, CBD does not produce psychotropic effects and does not present a risk of addiction. Its use is therefore legal in France, provided that the THC content complies with current regulations (≤ 0.3%).

Of all the available forms of cannabidiol, CBD oil is the most popular. It is consumed as drops placed directly under the tongue, giving the product an immediate or near-instant effect . But how can this phenomenon be explained, and how long does the effect of CBD last when this method is chosen? In this article, we will explore the mechanisms of action of CBD oil, the quality criteria to look for, and consumption tips to optimize your well-being and sleep with CBD oils from Délicure.

Understanding Hemp and its Cannabinoids

Hemp (Cannabis sativa) is a plant that has been used for centuries for its fibers, seeds, and medicinal properties. It contains various chemical compounds called cannabinoids : cannabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) are the best known.

• CBD (cannabidiol) : Sought after for its relaxing potential and lack of psychotropic effect.
• THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) : Responsible for the psychoactive effects and potential addiction associated with cannabis.

When we talk about CBD oil , we are generally referring to a cannabidiol extract derived from hemp , to which a carrier oil is added (e.g., avocado or sweet almond vegetable oil). Despite several studies , CBD is considered a novel food in France and therefore does not yet have any health claims. Thus, we cannot say that CBD is consumed for stress, pain, or sleep. Be careful not to confuse it with THC , the psychoactive compound in cannabis. Unlike THC, CBD is not a dangerous cannabinoid because it does not produce psychotropic effects. Furthermore, THC tends to be addictive, whereas CBD consumption has no side effects.

Why does CBD oil offer an immediate effect?

Sublingual Action and its Impact on the Body

When you place a few drops of CBD oil under your tongue, the cannabidiol molecule acts quickly. This is because the mouth is rich in blood capillaries: the product is therefore absorbed almost directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. This method of consumption thus promotes excellent bioavailability and an almost instantaneous effect.

• High bioavailability : CBD acts faster because the body assimilates the molecule by bypassing the digestive barrier.
• Time for effects to appear : On average 15 to 20 minutes, depending on individual sensitivity.

Tip : For optimal immediate effect , hold the drops under the tongue for 60 seconds before swallowing.

Interaction with the Endocannabinoid System

CBD acts on the endocannabinoid system, a network of receptors present throughout the body (brain, nervous system, immune system, etc.). It plays a role in regulating many functions, such as stress, pain, and sleep quality.

• CB1 receptors : Primarily located in the brain and central nervous system.
• CB2 receptors : Mostly located in the immune system.

By stimulating these receptors, cannabidiol acts indirectly to help the body maintain or regain a certain balance.

Duration of CBD Effect: How Long Does It Take to Work?

While CBD oil offers an immediate effect , what about its duration of action ? Testimonials and observations indicate that the effects can last between 2 and 6 hours, depending on the individual and the dosage.

1. User profile : Each body reacts differently to CBD depending on its metabolism, weight, general health...
2. Dosage : The higher the dosage, the more pronounced and prolonged the effect can be.
3. Oil quality : A product made from organic hemp and extracted using clean methods (supercritical CO₂, for example) has a better concentration of cannabinoids and guarantees optimal effectiveness.
4. Frequency of consumption : Regular intake may lead to a stabilization of the effects over time.

UnlikeCBD gummies , CBD oil has an almost immediate effect. When taken sublingually, the effects are felt within 15 to 20 minutes, depending on individual profile and tolerance. For optimal absorption, it is best to hold the drops of oil in your mouth for 60 seconds.

Consumption Tips for Immediate Effect

1. Start gently : Begin with a small amount of drops (1 to 3 drops), then adjust according to how you feel.
2. Listen to your body : If the effect seems insufficient, gradually increase the dose. It is essential to pay attention to how your body reacts.
3. Prefer sublingual administration : For immediate results , sublingual administration remains the fastest method. You can, however, explore other methods of consumption (capsules, infusions, etc.), but the onset of action will generally be longer.

Important : CBD oil is not a substitute for medical treatment. If you are undergoing treatment, are pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult a healthcare professional before considering using CBD.
