What Can You Do With CBD Isolates & Terpenes

Cannabidiol (CBD), is an incredibly versatile product that be used in numerous ways. Not only can you purchase an oil, but you can also shop for balms, vapes, edibles and more. It is a product that you can tailor to your personal lifestyle, which is what makes CBD Isolates & Terpenes such a great alternative.

So, What Are CBD Isolates?

CBD Isolates are an intricate product, especially when compared with traditional CBD Oil. This is because it is a pure powder, or crystalline structure that’s solely comprised of CBD. It does not contain any THC, or other active compounds that make up the commonly seen whole plant oil variety.

As mentioned above, a great advantage of the isolate is the fact that it contains zero THC. This is an issue many are conscious about due to their jobs, or due to a lack of knowledge surrounding the topic. It will, in fact, leave absolutely no trace in your bloodstream, and is a handy starting point to those just entering their personal CBD journey.

How About Terpenes?

Terpenes, however, are completely different. They are still organic chemical compounds, but they are not exclusive to cannabis as they are found in all plants, and some insects. They are the compounds that actually give off a smell, giving cannabis its distinct scent.

Better yet, they work with the existing cannabinoids, flavonoids and all the other components to create the Entourage Effect. This is essentially all of the individual elements working together to amplify the properties of one another.

What Can You Do With CBD Isolates?

The answer is: virtually anything! They are tasteless and odourless and can be put into food, or mixed with other CBD products.

Many infuse it into their morning coffee to get them energised for the day, or even add it to their cooking or standard drinking water.

Typically, it is used to boost the potency of the CBD supplements that you’re currently using. As the crystals are easy to dissolve, you simply put the required amount into your other supplements until you receive your desired effect.

By far the most popular method is to vaporise the crystals. This is a quick and effective way that allows CBD to enter your bloodstream efficiently as it doesn’t have to bypass your digestive system. As a result, you can use less product, making it rather cost-effective.

You can even use them topically by creating your own hemp concoction. Simply dissolve the crystals and mix them into a carrier oil, either coconut oil, cocoa butter would work best – but, the choice is yours. You would then apply it just like you would any other body lotion, giving the skin time to absorb the cream.

How To Use Terpenes

Terpene liquid, such as the Love Hemp range we have on our website, are all extremely concentrated and should only be used in moderation. Otherwise, your experience can be fairly unpleasant, and in some cases – dangerous. Now that isn’t to scare you, it is to ensure you only use a small amount for the most pleasurable and safe experiences.

Cannabis sativa is chemically comprised with a huge range of valuable terpenes that you can find in other plants too.

Unfortunately, it is a product with a slight limitation on the way you use it. You can however, use it in the same way you would the isolates by mixing it with your existing supplements. This could be to improve the taste, or to enhance the entourage effect.

A practical way of using terpenes however is within your cooking. You could add some CBD isolates to your dish, and then flavour it your way using the terpenes.
