CBD for the first time
What is CBD
It is one of many cannabinoid compounds found in the cannabis plant (hemp).
Simply put, it's a vitamin -like compound.
The cannabinoid component activates the endocannabinoid system (ECS), a body adjustment function that humans have, and gives various benefits.
What is CBD made of
CBD products are manufactured from the cannabis plant.
Many people are surprised when they hear the word cannabis, but there are many varieties of cannabis, and among them, CBD products are manufactured from a variety called “hemp (industrial hemp)” .
Hemp is characterized by a very low content of THC, a cannabinoid of less than 0.3%.
THC is generally said to "cause hallucinations" and "get high", and it is the compound "THC" that gives the image of "cannabis = no good". Hemp contains very little THC to begin with, and instead contains a lot of CBD, which is why CBD products are commonly made from the hemp plant.
Also, CBD products are internationally regulated to have a THC content of 0% to 1% (depending on the country), so you will not hallucinate or get high with CBD products. 
How to take CBD
There are three ways to take CBD.
- Oral (sublingual absorption or absorption from the intestine after eating)
- From the lungs (inhale and absorb from the lungs)
- From the skin (Apply directly to the skin for transdermal absorption)
The trick is to choose “easy to take, easy to continue” according to your lifestyle.
Types of CBD products and how to take them
▼ CBD oil
It is absorbed from the mouth/through the capillaries on the back of the tongue called the sublingual. Rather than drinking, hold it in your mouth for 60 to 90 seconds and then swallow it.
▼ CBD Liquid
From the lungs / Inhaled with an e-cigarette (vape) and absorbed through the capillaries in the lungs. At that time, it will not be absorbed if it is puffed, so it will accumulate in the lungs for about 5 to 10 seconds (hold your breath) and slowly exhale through your nose.
▼ CBD cartridge
Through the lungs / Disposable CBD liquid (liquid for inhalation only) inhaled with an e-cigarette (vape) and absorbed through the capillaries of the lungs. At that time, it will not be absorbed if it is puffed, so it will accumulate in the lungs for about 5 to 10 seconds (hold your breath) and slowly exhale through your nose.
▼ CBD wax
Aspirate from the lungs/with a special device. Not recommended for beginners due to its high concentration.
▼ CBD cream
Apply through/on the skin for percutaneous absorption. Mainly for topical use.
▼ CBD balm
Apply through/on the skin for percutaneous absorption. Mainly for topical use.
▼ CBD bath bomb
From the skin / Since it is a bath agent, it is absorbed through the skin of the whole body.
▼ CBD Gummies
From the intestine / eat and absorb from the intestine.
▼ CBD Capsules
From the intestine / eat and absorb from the intestine.
▼ CBD powder
Ingested from the intestines and lungs / mixed with food, drink, liquid (liquid for inhalation), etc.
There are various ways to take CBD depending on the type, and depending on the method of intake, the rate of absorption into the body, the effect time, etc.
CBD products “Points and Tips for Choosing”
There are many types of CBD products, and if you add the manufacturing method, content (%), and taste, it is difficult for beginners to choose.
So, here are three tips and tricks for choosing CBD products.
Part 1: What do you want to be!
Think hard about what you want to be with CBD products. It seems like a matter of course, but there are surprisingly many people who haven't decided, and there are a lot of people who just don't know what to buy.
Want to improve your sleep? Want to live comfortably and healthily? do you want to chill? Do you want to improve your depressed mind? Want to improve your PMS? Such...
First of all, we recommend that you try not to expect many and narrow down to one. Recently, there are more specialized CBD products, such as sleep-specific products.
Part 2: Know the difference in effects depending on the intake method
CBD products have different effects onset and duration depending on how they are taken. Even if you take one sleep, the product you choose will subtly change depending on whether you want to improve your ability to fall asleep or improve your sleep quality. And there are three main experiences, so I will introduce them.
◆Inhalation products such as short-time type vape (absorption in the lungs) can be experienced in about 5 to 10 minutes. It takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour to feel it. It is also quick to come out because it has immediate effect.
High-concentration products with a CBD content of 40% or more can cause a drowsiness-like sensation from the first puff. However, high-concentration vaping is not recommended for beginners as it can cause choking and coughing. We recommend keeping it to 30%. (similar to alcohol %)
◎Recommended for those who want to calm down momentary irritation.・I have trouble falling asleep.・I want to relax.・I want to quit smoking.・I want something to accompany chill time.
◆Medium-time type oil products (absorption under the tongue) can be felt in about 30 minutes to 1 hour. Of course, the CBD content will change the experience. If you want to experience it properly, I think that you can feel it if you choose a product with 10% to 30%, but of course the price will be higher.
Many people try 1.6% or 3% products first, but to be honest, it doesn't feel like a physical experience. There is no decent experience unless you have at least 5% CBD oil. Low-concentration products will change if you continue for a long time, so if you want to try it carefully, low-concentration oil is recommended.
We recommend high-concentration products for those who need urgent care such as "I want to improve the quality of sleep immediately". The duration of the experience depends on the person, but it is generally said that the experience of oil is about 4 hours.
◎ Recommended for people who want to improve the quality of their sleep.・I want to reduce stress.・I want to concentrate.・I want to relieve chronic pain.・I want to fix hormonal imbalance such as rough skin.・I want to relieve my anxiety.・I want to control my blood sugar.
◆Long-time type Gummies and capsules (absorbed in the intestine) can be felt in about 1 to 2 hours after ingestion. Of course, the CBD content will change the experience. It lasts gently for a long time, so it is characterized by the fact that it is difficult to feel a clear sensation, but when the content is high, it feels surprisingly solid.
Basically, CBD is similar to alcohol, and the more you take, the more sleepy you become. A little bit will wake up your brain.
・Changes in sensation due to intake
10mg~15mg: Awakening of the brain (concentration)
20mg~25mg: healthy day (relaxing)
30mg~50mg: Reduction of chronic troubles (medical)
The duration of the sensation depends on the person, but it is generally said that the sensation of gummies and capsules lasts about 6 hours.
◎ Recommended for those who want to sleep well.・I have a chronic problem.・I want to live a healthy life. - Relieves menstrual cramps and PMS .・I want to relieve my anxiety.・Since it is a troublesome person, it is good to be able to take it easily.
Part 3: Taste and Flavor!
Taste is important to keep going.
Essentially, products such as oils, vapes, and gummies come with some kind of taste or flavor. It's difficult to make a decision based only on information on the internet, but I think it's easy to choose even if you understand it to some extent.
Oils are mainly divided into 3 types of tastes/flavors, and vapes are divided into 2 types.
▼Oil
1. Tasteless/Unflavoured It basically has no taste. to some extent.
2.Natural Natural in CBD products basically refers to the flavor of hemp. It has a slightly grassy taste, and often has a thin garland chrysanthemum-like taste.
3. There are various flavors from refreshing flavors such as fruity lemon and mint to mixed fruits and coffee. Basically, there are many things with high reproducibility, so I think that it is easy to continue if it is your favorite flavor.
▼Bape
1. Cannabis that reproduces the flavor of cannabis strains. Such as OG Kush and Blue Dream. Japanese people are not familiar with it, so it is difficult to choose. It's basically an herbal flavor.
2. Fruity/juice Blueberry, strawberry, and other flavors found in juices and sweets are basically sweet. Mint and lemon are refreshing. Basically, there are many things with high reproducibility, so I think that it is easy to continue if it is your favorite flavor.
Roughly it looks like this.

summary
These are the recommended products for GReEN's first CBD.
CBD is quite a deep and expensive product, so I think it is difficult to try and buy it. I don't think you will make a big mistake with the above products, so please purchase with confidence.
In addition, it is said that the average intake of CBD is about 20 mg throughout the day. I would like you to try it with that in mind. If you want to experience it first, try taking 20mg or more.
If you are afraid, start with a small amount of about 10 mg. There are individual differences, but I don't think it will make you feel dizzy or sick.
If you are afraid to buy online, please feel free to contact the GReEN STORE.
If you are in the suburbs of Tokyo, please visit the GReEN STORE.
You can try all the products mentioned above.
Of course it's ok to just try it.
