CBD oils reviewed by Sinem Uygun (BSc)
In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the use of CBD oil in the UK, as more and more people are turning to this natural hemp plant extract to support their wellness journey. CBD oil has become a popular choice for those seeking a natural food supplement. This growth is, in part, due to the changing attitudes towards cannabis and hemp-based products, as well as the growing body of scientific research on the potential benefits of CBD.

CBD oil is not a cure for pain relief, depression, anxiety, or sleep. There are some studies that show how CBD interacts with the endocannabinoid system and affects our neurotransmitters and receptors. Based on such studies, you can make your own conclusions about whether or not CBD oil can help you as you embark on your wellness journey.
CBD is a natural compound found in hemp plants, which is the same species as the cannabis plant. CBD is not psychoactive and does not produce a “high”, because it is a strain of cannabis with very low levels of THC. It is available in various forms, including CBD oils, CBD capsules, CBD gummies, CBD balms and creams, and more.
CBD oil is a product that contains cannabidiol (CBD), a compound extracted from the cannabis plant. It’s typically made by extracting CBD from the cannabis plant and then diluting it with a carrier oil to create a tincture. Blessed CBD oils are blended with hemp seed oil.
Every company has their own way of making CBD oil. At Blessed CBD, we believe in using sustainable, natural extraction methods that are not only good for the environment, but good for you too. Here’s how we make our CBD oil:
Carrier oils are vegetable-based oils that are used to dilute the concentrated CBD extract, making it easier to consume or apply. CBD oil is typically very potent, so it needs to be mixed with a carrier oil to achieve a safe and effective dose. They are called “carrier” oils because they are used to “carry” or deliver the essential oil to the body in a diluted form, which makes them safer to use.
There is a difference between full-spectrum and broad-spectrum CBD. Full-spectrum CBD has all the natural compounds found in the cannabis plant, including THC. Broad-spectrum CBD also has many of these natural compounds, but without THC.
Choosing full-spectrum or broad-spectrum CBD oil depends on your individual needs. The most important thing when choosing what kind of oil to get is considering the entourage effect.
The entourage effect is a concept that suggests that the different compounds in the cannabis plant work together to enhance the stimulation of the endocannabinoid receptors. This means that the combined effects of these compounds may be greater than their individual effects.
CBD and THC may work better together for some conditions, and other compounds in the plant can also enhance its benefits. People may prefer using full-spectrum or broad-spectrum CBD products to get a wider range of compounds for potential additional benefits.
CBD oil is completely legal in the UK as of November 1st 2018. CBD products must contain less than 0.2% THC and adhere to other guidelines in order to be legally sold and distributed. Some of the other guidelines include:
As a company recognized by the FSA, we adhere to all the legal requirements to sell CBD oil as a legitimate business.
The appropriate CBD dosage can differ from person to person, influenced by factors such as body weight, tolerance, the amount of CBD in the product, and intended use. To find your optimal dose, we suggest beginning with a low of CBD and gradually increasing it until you achieve the desired results. This approach helps you gauge your personal tolerance and minimise any potential side effects. For an estimate of a starting dosage, we highly recommend referring to our CBD dosage calculator.
Choosing between CBD oil tinctures and CBD edibles depends on personal preference, convenience, and desired effects. CBD oil tinctures are a popular choice because they are easy to use, fast-acting, and provide precise dosing. They are typically taken sublingually (placed under the tongue for absorption), which allows for faster and more efficient delivery of CBD to the bloodstream.
CBD edibles, on the other hand, are a convenient and tasty option for those who don’t like the taste of CBD oil. They are easy to use and provide a longer-lasting effect than tinctures, because they are absorbed more slowly by the body.

No. CBD is a non-psychoactive compound, which means it does not produce the “high” or euphoric effects that are commonly associated with THC, even at high strengths. CBD products in the UK are required by law to contain less than 0.2% THC, which is not enough to produce any psychoactive effects anyway.
Like any supplement or medication, CBD products can have potential side effects, especially if taken in high doses or used in combination with other medications. The side effects are usually mild and temporary. Some of the reported side effects of using CBD products include:
In the UK, it is legal to travel with CBD oil that contains no more than 0.2% THC. If you are travelling internationally, you should research the laws of the countries you are travelling to. Some countries may have strict rules around CBD and other cannabis-derived products, so carrying CBD products could result in legal consequences. Always be sure to check in with the airline and customs regulations of the country you are travelling to.
CBD oil has become increasingly popular for use in pets, but it’s important to consult with a veterinarian before giving CBD oil or any other supplement to your pet.
The length of time that CBD oil stays in your system varies depending on the dose, the frequency of use, the method of ingestion, and individual differences in metabolism.
CBD oil typically has a half-life of 1-2 days, which means that it takes this amount of time for half of the CBD to be eliminated from the body. However, it can take longer for the CBD to be completely cleared from the system.
Some drug tests may be able to detect CBD in the system if they are capable of detecting the trace amounts of THC and other cannabinoids found in CBD oil. If you’re worried about drug testing, browse our products that are free of THC and are labelled as “CBD isolate”.
Like with many other compounds, it is entirely possible to develop a tolerance to CBD oil over time. With regular use, you may need to increase the dosage to achieve the same level of effect that you experienced when you first started using CBD oil.
To take CBD oil sublingually, just place drops of CBD oil under your tongue and hold it there for 60 seconds before swallowing.
If you are taking any other medication, you must consult with a healthcare provider before consuming CBD. This is because CBD can interact with other medications and it may alter the way the medication affects you.
Yes, you can add CBD oil to your food or drinks to create CBD-infused meals and snacks. The amount of CBD oil you should add to your food depends on your desired dosage. If you’re a beginner, we recommend that you start with a low dosage and gradually increase it as you find the perfect dosage for your meal or snack.
Keep in mind that consuming CBD oil in food and drinks will cause the CBD to take longer to kick in. This is because it takes longer for CBD to enter your bloodstream if you digest it, as opposed to placing some drops directly under your tongue.
To store CBD oil safely, make sure that you:
It typically takes 15-45 minutes for the CBD oil to take effect if taken sublingually. If infused with food or drinks, it can take 30 minutes to 2 hours.
Our CBD oil products are a food supplement and not a medicine. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. If you are pregnant/breastfeeding or taking medication and/or have a severe medical condition, consult a doctor before use.
