How to Use Vytabotanicals CBD and Hemp Oil?

by Becky Green

If you’re reading this article, you probably already know about the wealth of health benefits associated with using CBD and Hemp Oil. But, did you know that there are multiple ways of using the oils to make them work best for you. Below we are sharing a few ways to use Vytabotanical oils to promote wellbeing:

As a Consumable

The majority of Vytabotanicals products are labelled as Food and Dietary Supplements. This means that they are suitable, and tested food safe for consumption. As a consumable a few drops of either hemp or CBD oil can be placed into the mouth and held there for a minute before swallowing. Always check the label to find how many drops of each product makes up a serving.

For some, this is the best method of use for hemp and CBD as it’s the most direct, and fast way of getting your daily dosage. Additionally, you do not need to carry anything else with you to take your dosage or hemp or CBD. You can simply place your CBD/Hemp in your work bag or handbag and go about your day. Note that, this will mean taking hemp and CBD in its most raw and potent state. CBD and Hemp have a unique green, herbal and sometimes bitter flavour. Many don’t mind the flavour, and some enjoy it. This method of use is only suitable for people who enjoy the flavour of raw CBD and hemp.

 

Massage Oil

CBD and Hemp Oil have been shown to be effective in soothing aches and pain in muscles in joints. One great way to use Vytabotanicals products is to use them as lubrication while massaging aching muscles, or whilst using a massage gun or other sport massage device.
Place a couple of drops of oil on the sore or aching area. Use your hands to warm the area and loosen the muscles. Begin with long gliding strokes over the area that feels sore. Then, use smaller and more targeted movements on particular areas of soreness.
Be mindful not to continue to reapply the oil without first checking the recommended daily dosage and upper limit.
Always do a patch test on the skin before using to ensure that the oil does not cause an allergic reaction or irritation. If you’re looking for a great massage solution, you could try the Vytaliving Deep Tissue Massage Gun from our sister site www.vytaliving.com.

 

 

In Drinks

Simply put, water and oil do not mix. All Vytabotanical oils are not water soluble so adding them to drink isn’t as simple as adding a few drops. That being said, all our CBD and hemp oils can be added to drinks without reducing their potency.

In order to emulsify the oil into the liquid the drink must be well stirred mixed or shaken, what better way to do that than mocktails. Here are 2 great recipe for a delicious Hemp or CBD mocktail using Vytabotanical oils.

The Zingy CBD Mocktail

  • 125 ml Cranberry Juice
  • 50 ml Ginger Beer
  • 75 ml Sparking Water
  • 2 drops of CBD Oil
  • Your Choice of fruit to serve
  • Mint Leaves

 

The Floral Hemp Mocktails

  • 1 tbsp of Elderflower Syrup
  • 1 tbsp of Lime Juice
  • 150ml of Sparkling Water
  • 2 drops of hemp oil
  • Handful of Blueberries

However, it doesn’t just have to be mocktails and cocktails you use your CBD in. You can add the oils to your morning tea and coffee too. Just make sure they are well-mixed.
