Alternatives to CBD Vaping

by Martin B. · October 15, 2019

It’s pretty difficult to avoid negative stories about vaping in the news these days – and in particular, a mysterious lung illness that has sickened at least 1,299 people and killed 26 is the number one topic. Medical researchers have focused on illicit THC vaping cartridges as the most probable cause of the illness, but CBD vaping products and counterfeit nicotine e-liquids haven’t been completely ruled out. If you’re a CBD user, then, you might have decided that you’d like to avoid CBD vaping for a while until authorities get to the bottom of the situation. The good news is that, if you’re looking for a CBD vaping alternative, there’s no shortage of products from which to choose. Even without using an inhaled CBD product, you can the relief you need at a fair price. These are some of the some of the alternative CBD products available if you’d rather avoid CBD vaping for now.

CBD Oil

The standard form of CBD is an oil-based tincture that you hold under your tongue and swallow – and if you’ve never tried any form of CBD except vaping, CBD oil is the first CBD vaping alternative that you should try. There are many reasons why CBD oil is so popular. Compared to many other types of CBD products, CBD oil is relatively inexpensive to produce and is therefore a product that you can use affordably.

CBD oil also has an excellent absorption profile. When you hold the oil under your tongue, a portion of the CBD enters your bloodstream directly through your sublingual artery. Sublingual absorption means that you enjoy some of the relief right away while you wait for your digestive system to process the rest of the oil.

The final benefit of CBD oil compared to many other types of CBD products is that it’s available in an enormous variety of strengths. If you prefer to take very potent doses of CBD, you’ll have no trouble finding a CBD oil to suit your needs. If, on the other hand, you want to save money and keep your expenses as low as possible, you’ll find no shortage of lower-strength CBD oils at very reasonable prices.

CBD Spray

Available at finer CBD sellers such as BWELL Marketplace, CBD spray is a newer product that has only just begun to cause a stir in the market. By mixing the CBD with a thin liquid and pushing it through an atomizer, it becomes possible to spread tiny droplets of CBD over a wide area under the tongue, which could possibly increase the absorption speed. If you have tried CBD oil and were unhappy with the amount of time that passed before you could feel the CBD working, try a CBD spray and see what you think of it. You may find that you like it much more than CBD oil.

CBD Isolate

CBD isolate is one of the most exciting CBD products on the market. This white crystalline powder is what results when CBD producers put raw hemp extract through repeated purification and refinement. It contains more than 99 percent CBD, and it also contains no detectable THC – which is perfect for those whose employers require them to take drug tests. If you want to be certain that a drug test won’t incorrectly flag you as a marijuana user, CBD isolate is your best bet.

An additional benefit of CBD isolate is that, being more than 99 percent pure, CBD isolate provides an easy way to get an extremely potent dose of CBD into your system if that’s how you find CBD is most effective for you.

CBD isolate is oil soluble, and that creates some interesting possibilities for making your own CBD edibles at home. You could stir CBD isolate into gelatin, for example, as the mixture cools. You could add CBD isolate to your favorite brownie mix. If you’d like to use CBD in a way that isn’t satisfied by the products currently on the market, CBD isolate makes it possible for you create the desired product yourself.

CBD Edibles and Capsules

Making CBD products at home isn’t for everyone, but there’s no need to worry; if you prefer the convenience of having someone else make the products for you, there are plenty of pre-made CBD edibles that you can buy. Gummy candies are the most popular CBD edibles, but you can also find products such as chocolate bars and drink mixes. You can even skip the calories and buy CBD capsules instead.

Unlike CBD oils, sprays and isolate, CBD edibles give you the benefit of the fact that someone else is measuring the CBD for you. When you’re dispensing CBD oil with a dropper, it’s pretty difficult to ensure that you’re getting exactly the same dose every time. That’s not the case with CBD edibles; every serving contains a pre-measured amount of CBD, and that means your experience never changes. CBD edibles do have a downside, though, in that the absorption speed is slower than it would be with inhaled or sublingual CBD products. When you eat CBD, it enters your bloodstream through your digestive system – and that process may take more than an hour.

CBD Flowers

You know that inhaling CBD is the fastest way to get it into your system, but you’ve decided to hold off on vaping CBD oils until people figure out what’s causing the vaping lung disease. Are there any alternatives for inhaling CBD without vaping it? In fact, there is one: You can buy CBD flowers and inhale them the old-fashioned way – by smoking them. Believe it or not, there are actually companies today that take the high-CBD and low-THC flowers of legal industrial hemp plants, grind them up and use them to fill cigarettes that they’ll ship to your door – no matter where you live. While it’s true that smoking may not be the healthiest way to consume CBD, it’s also true that there is no faster way to get a large dose of CBD into your system.
