UK customers can now access a range of safe, effective CBD products thanks to detailed laws which made it legal for CBD tinctures, sprays and capsules to be sold. Brands like Blessed CBD have already taken the market by storm with their potent and regulated range of high-quality CBD products.
Legality
CBD is a compound found in the cannabis Sativa plant. It’s different from THC, which is the part of the plant that gets you high. CBD is legal in the UK, but there are strict guidelines that must be followed. CBD products must be derived from industrial hemp strains that are EU-approved and contain no more than 0.2% THC.
THC is a psychoactive component of the plant, which means that it can cause you to experience side effects such as dizziness or paranoia. However, this only happens if you consume too much CBD or use high-quality products that aren’t manufactured according to the regulations.
To avoid these risks, it’s best to choose a product that is third-party lab tested and made with premium ingredients. Luckily, you can find a wide range of UK-made CBD products that are both safe and reliable. This is thanks to the efforts of companies such as Vibes CBD, which prides itself on premium ingredients and manufacturing best practices.
Benefits
In the UK, CBD is legal to buy and use as long as it contains no more than 0.2% THC (tetrahydrocannabinol). Products that contain high amounts of THC are illegal. This is due to the fact that CBD oil is extracted from the cannabis plant, which is classified as a controlled substance under the Misuse of Drugs Act.
CBD is believed to have therapeutic benefits for a range of conditions, including chronic pain and inflammation, anxiety and sleeplessness, rheumatoid arthritis, nausea caused by chemotherapy, and muscle stiffness and spasms from multiple sclerosis. CBD is also said to improve the quality of sleep for people with fibromyalgia, as well as reduce the symptoms of schizophrenia and depression.
When purchasing CBD products, it is important to find one that offers third-party lab testing and a commitment to customer satisfaction. A trusted company will offer high-quality ingredients and a full refund policy in case you are dissatisfied with your purchase.
Origins
We adhere to all UK regulation and supply you with the finest quality, safe and fully compliant CBD products. All of our CBD supplements are sold as food supplements and cannot be promoted for therapeutic benefits because, unlike medicines, they have not been subjected to the full testing required to achieve this.
CBD oil, sprays and capsules can be legally marketed and sold in the UK provided they meet 3 criteria for exemption as set out by the MDR. This means that they must not be sold as a medicine, contain less than 1mg of THC, THCV and CBN and these cannabinoids must not be able to be easily separated from the product. However, full-spectrum hemp flowers (hemp buds) and Hemp tea cannot be marketed as CBD because they are considered medicinal by the VMD. They can only be grown with a Home Office license as industrial hemp which requires the cultivation of the mature stalk, fibre and seeds.
Safety
CBD has been used to treat a range of health and wellbeing issues for years. The natural compound is credited with alleviating pain, anxiety, insomnia and stress. It is also a popular ingredient in beauty products, from cosmetics and hair treatments to sexual lubricants.
CBD is legally available in the UK as a food supplement but cannot be marketed to claim medicinal cannabis benefits such as reducing stress, depression or sleeplessness. This is because CBD is derived from the cannabis Sativa plant that produces the psychoactive THC that creates the ‘high’ associated with marijuana.
Vibes CBD sources premium hemp extracts from Europe and North America to craft their high-quality, full-spectrum or THC-free CBD tinctures, capsules and oils. Each batch undergoes rigorous third-party lab testing to ensure they contain the amount of CBD stated on the label. This ensures each product delivers the promised benefits without any of the unwanted toxins such as pesticides and solvents that can be present in lesser quality CBD products. Buy CBD UK
