One of the decisive advantages of CBD oil is that it can be taken quickly, easily, and discreetly. In order for the CBD effect to kick in particularly fast, you should go with the sublingual intake instead of simply swallowing the CBD oil.
For the sublingual administration, drop the oil under your tongue as usual and keep it there for one to two minutes. This way, the first cannabidiol molecules are absorbed through the mucous membranes in your mouth and reach the receptors of your endocannabinoid system. The endocannabinoid system, by the way, extends throughout the body, has important effects on the entire organism, and is made up of two different receptor types: CB1 and CB2 receptors. CBD interacts predominantly with the CB2 receptor, which causes its typical effect.
In general, taking 3% CBD oil is slightly trickier than swallowing a CBD capsule. With CBD oil, the dosage depends on you. What might appear as a burden is, at the same time, an advantage, as you can determine the amount of CBD yourself and adapt it to your needs. As a general rule, you can follow these steps:
Preparation: How to draw up the dropper
1. Before you open the vial, you should shake it well so that the active ingredient is distributed in the hemp oil.
2. Then open the vial unscrewing the dropper cap.
3. Now dip the dropper into the golden-brown CBD oil and squeeze the top of the cap, which creates a vacuum that allows the oil to be drawn up.
4. When the dropper is full, release the top of the cap.
5. Be careful not to squeeze the top until you are ready to drop the CBD oil under your tongue.
Tips for a pleasant CBD oil intake:
Drawing up the dropper takes just a few seconds, and then you are ready to consume your CBD oil. Tilt your head back slightly, open your mouth wide, and gently squeeze the top of the dropper. Drop by drop, the CBD oil reaches your mouth. Make sure that you do not swallow it immediately, but keep it under your tongue.

- After the desired amount of CBD is under your tongue, refrain from swallowing for one to two minutes.
- Afterwards, you can simply swallow the CBD oil without rinsing with water.
- CBD works fastest if taken on an empty stomach.
- After taking the oil, you shouldn't eat, drink, or smoke for 10 to 15 minutes.
