It\u2019s one of over one hundred different cannabinoids that have been identified so far. While cannabinoids are so named because they were first discovered in cannabis, they have since been discovered in many other biological systems.<\/p>\n<p>CBD is traditionally used in oils, creams, and rub-on products by people who are seeking to live a happy and healthy life. It\u2019s important to note that while some people confuse CBD and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is also found in the cannabis plant, the two are different. CBD is not intoxicating and does not cause the euphoric side effects commonly associated with THC. That means you can use CBD products without having to worry about THC causing any sort of reaction.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-78708\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/blog-cbd-body-range-EUR-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"CBD Muscle Balm, Cinnamon CBD Oil 1000 mg and Calm CBD Roll-On 300 mg\" width=\"650\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/blog-cbd-body-range-EUR-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/blog-cbd-body-range-EUR.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"color: #dd2f19\">How Much CBD Do I Need?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In our Nature\u2019s Ultra range, each of our products offer different options for strength. A higher strength will have a greater concentration of CBD per dose than a lower strength.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you want to simply buy CBD oil, it comes in two strengths: 500 mg and 1000 mg. A strength of 500 mg contains approximately 16.66 mg of CBD per full dropper (1ml), and a strength of 1000 mg contains approximately 33.33 mg of CBD per full dropper (1ml).<\/p>\n<p>Everyone is different, so it\u2019s important to find the strength that works best for you.<\/p>\n<p>We recommend starting with a lower strength and working your way up once you know how your body reacts to it. Whether you\u2019ve selected a lower or higher strength, our recommendations for use will be the same. For our CBD oils, you will use one full dropper\u2014that\u2019s one milliliter of oil\u2014and apply it to the desired area.<\/p>\n<p>For our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/id\/29402\" class=\"broken_link\">Muscle Balm<\/a> and our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/en_GB\/products\/calm-cbd-roll-on\" class=\"broken_link\">Roll-Ons<\/a>, you\u2019ll apply them generously as desired. Remember, it\u2019s okay to start out with just a little bit and increase the amount as you get familiar with how your body responds to the products!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-78648\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/blog-cbd-body-balm-calm-EUR-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"CBD Muscle Balm &amp; Calm CBD Roll-On 300 mg\" width=\"650\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/blog-cbd-body-balm-calm-EUR-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/blog-cbd-body-balm-calm-EUR.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"color: #dd2f19\">Do I Need to Exercise Caution When Using CBD?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Any time you\u2019re using a new product, it\u2019s normal to want to know if there is the potential for any adverse effects. As you use CBD oils, pay attention to your body and how you react to the products, and speak to a medical professional if you have any concerns. It&#8217;s also important to consider any medication that you\u2019re currently using.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-78663\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/blog-cbd-body-citrus-EUR-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Citrus CBD Oil 500 mg\" width=\"650\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/blog-cbd-body-citrus-EUR-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/blog-cbd-body-citrus-EUR.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"color: #dd2f19\">Does Nature\u2019s Ultra Use Full Spectrum or Broad Spectrum CBD and Why?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>At Nature\u2019s Ultra, we actually use a CBD isolate that is extracted from the cannabis plant without any of the plant\u2019s other compounds. Full spectrum CBD is extracted from the cannabis plant with all of the other compounds, including terpenes, essential oils, and most significantly, THC. THC is the intoxicating compound of the cannabis plant that causes euphoric side effects, and it\u2019s illegal in many areas.<\/p>\n<p>Broad spectrum CBD contains all of the plant\u2019s compounds with the exception of THC, but we don\u2019t know how all of these compounds affect the body. To ensure that our products are both effective and safe, we combine our own high-quality, pure CBD isolate and combine it with world-class essential oils from Young Living to create our own Smart Spectrum CBD. The resulting oil is pure, potent, and contains 0.0% THC!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-78678\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/blog-cbd-body-mint-EUR-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Cool Mint CBD Oil 1000 mg\" width=\"650\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/blog-cbd-body-mint-EUR-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.youngliving.com\/blog\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2021\/02\/blog-cbd-body-mint-EUR.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"color: #dd2f19\">Can CBD Be Used on Everyone?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>CBD should not be used on pregnant or nursing women. When you\u2019re pregnant or breastfeeding, it\u2019s always important to be cautious about the products you use. We recommend consulting your healthcare professional before using CBD or any other products. In addition, our CBD oils are not recommended for use on children aged under 18 or on pets.<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"color: #dd2f19\">What are our Farming Practices for CBD?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>At Nature\u2019s Ultra, we have a partner farm where we use organic and sustainable farming practices to cultivate high-quality hemp. During the extraction process, we test multiple times for potency and purity.<\/p>\n<p>The result is CBD oil that is pure and contains 0.0% THC. Once we\u2019re satisfied that our CBD is as pure and potent as possible, we combine it with Young Living essential oils. The combination of CBD and Young Living essential oils results in a CBD oil that you can feel great about using on a daily basis.
