CBD tea is just like regular tea – just with a little CBD sprinkled in! CBD, aka cannabidiol, is a substance naturally found in hemp plants.
The hemp plants used for CBD tea and other supplements are naturally richer in CBD and the psychoactive THC will have been removed to at least acceptable levels.
That’s what makes CBD very different to the illegal sort of hemp marijuana, that people smoke.
Summary
- CBD tea is a tea containing cannabidiol (CBD) naturally found in hemp plants
What is CBD tea good for?
CBD tea effects have not been fully explored yet, but different teas can be pretty powerful in their own right. Then adding CBD and its own potential benefits, you can see why someone would be at least curious to try it.
What are the benefits of CBD tea?
1. Easy
If you’re a tea drinker already, all it’s going to take to get your daily dose of CBD is swapping one of your normal tea breaks for a CBD tea break.
2. Enjoyable
You can find a CBD tea with the flavours you like so you can enjoy your CBD rather than have to ensure it. You can even enhance your top teas with a CBD food enhancer if you prefer to transform regular tea into CBD tea.
4. Portable
CBD teabags are lightweight and easy to travel with, so you can take your CBD to work, on holiday, and anywhere else you fancy.
3. Doesn’t feel like a supplement
Would you feel a little strange getting your CBD oil out at the office? CBD tea feels less like a supplement and more like a treat.
Summary
- CBD tea makes taking CBD easy, enjoyable, and somehow more ‘normal’.
What is the dosage of CBD in CBD tea?
It depends, some hemp teas naturally contain CBD, but the dosage is not always defined. Other brands use bioavailable CBD extracts with dosages like 3mg of CBD per tea bag.
Always check the label of each individual tea as the dosages will likely vary.
Does CBD tea really work?
That’s not really something that can be answered right now as there is not enough experimental date to analyse around the efficacy of CBD extracts, let alone CBD tea specifically.
Will CBD tea make you high?
In order for CBD supplements and products like CBD tea to be safe and legal, they can only contain a tiny amount (or even none at all) of THC.
THC is the psychoactive compound also found in some hemp plants that makes you ‘high’.
Summary
- No, CBD tea doesn’t contain enough THC to make you ‘high’
Does CBD tea help with sleep?
There is not enough current research to determine if CBD tea and other CBD products can help you to sleep.
What does CBD tea taste like?
It totally depends on what type of tea is used, as well as any other ingredients CBD tea companies choose to add.
Some can have an earthy green tea flavour, a refreshing fruity flavour, or even perfectly replicate classic English breakfast tea.
