Cannabidiol (CBD) E Liquid - Intresting concept

stevek93

Browsing through E liquids on Amazon and came across this https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01D7F63FU?th=1 I am wondering what is your opinion on it is?

If you are unsure what Cannabidiol (CBD) is,

CBD oil must have less than 0.2% THC to meet legal restrictions in Ireland, the EU and the US.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is a naturally occurring constituent of industrial hemp plants & cannabis plants. It is the most abundant non-psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis, and is being scientifically investigated for various medical reasons.

In short it doesn't get you "high" it is more of a medical perspective. I not going to list the medical benefits if you are interested there is a lot online you can read about.

Wasn't this what Conor McGregors last opponent, Nate Diaz, was vaping right after the last fight?

He said it helps with the "healing process".

Just seen on twitter that the MHRA have declared CBD a medical product and as such must not be offered for sale as a general product.
It's available in health shops at the moment, so I guess that now going to be removed. CBD has lots of evidence of being an effective pain relief remedy. It's anecdotally good for lots of other things as well, nausea, muscle tension, even epilepsy.

This is going of topic a bit but still relates to your post as you mentioned epilepsy http://www.irishexaminer.com/examviral/real-life/mother-of-cork-boy-receiving-us-cannabis-treatment--its-illogical-to-not-have-it-in-ireland-390147.html not to sure would the CBD have the same effect here.

I ordered and received some from here: https://gentlemansvapes.com/
I had no issues importing the stuff.
For me, it's very good as a mild relaxant - and hopefully has all those other medical benefits!
Taste is very strong and herbal (more like the stem of a plant than the leaves).
I've tried mixing it with other flavoured juices, but it overpowers everything.

Did it take long to arrive? Is it actually legal here?

As I said in my OP it must have less 0.2% THC to be legal here, I cant find anything on their site. I will pop them an email and see what the story is.

CBD - Frequently Asked Questions

We have been getting a lot of similar questions from people on our live-chat platform and thought we would send out some helpful information. If you have any more questions don't hesitate to reach out to us via our live-chat window or via email or phone!

info@gentlemansvapes.com

Is Gentleman's Brand CBD made from whole-plant cannabis or from industrial hemp?

Our CBD products are made using 100% organic, whole plant cannabis and solvent-free co2 extraction methods. This provides the best safety profile and superior medicinal benefits.
What are the benefits of whole-plant cannabis derived CBD

Greater medicinal benefits due to increased terpene levels and the "entourage effect".
MUCH LESS raw material needed per gram of CBD extract, hence much less heavy metals, pesticides, and other contaminants make it into your body.
What are the problems with CBD products derived from industrial hemp?

Industrial hemp typically contains far less cannabidiol than CBD-rich cannabis strains so a huge amount of industrial hemp is required to extract a small amount of CBD.
Hemp-derived CBD and refined CBD powder lack critical medicinal terpenes and secondary cannabinoids which are present in cannabis-derived CBD.
Is Gentleman's Brand CBD Organic?
Yes! Our products are 100% organic and solvent-free.
Where does Gentleman's Brand CBD come from?
Our CBD is grown on an organic farm in Colorado.
Does Gentleman's Brand CBD come from synthetic "crystal" CBD?
No, all Gentleman's Brand CBD comes from whole plant, organic CBD rich cannabis plants grown on a 20 acre farm in Colorado. We tested numerous synthetic, crystalline CBD sources and found none that were to our liking.
Does Gentleman's Brand CBD contain THC? Will it get me high?
No, our CBD contains less than .003% THC, making it legal to ship to all 50 states and internationally. It will not get you "high", though you may experience a calming effect and a relaxing body buzz.
Is Gentleman's Brand CBD lab-tested?
Yes, each batch of raw CBD is tested via SCLABS to ensure that it is 100% free of solvents, pesticides, mold, and other contaminants. We also lab test each batch of e-liquid AFTER production to ensure maximum quality control is achieved.

It took about 2 weeks to arrive.

Hope that helps!

That's a lot of hand waving from a company out to sell product.

The only quantification is lab analysis of the product - so where is it?

CBD (and THC) are mainly produced in the flowering parts of the female plant and in tiny tiny trace amounts elsewhere. In other words don't believe the hype.

There are some specialist producers hybridising plants in the US to produce plants that are mostly CBD. These are important and especially useful for certain types of epilepsy.

Very short email I got back but anyhow,

Our raw cbd concentrate is 75% cbd and .001% thc.
