CBD affects everyone differently. Effects can also depend on the strength of the product and how it is administered. As a non-psychoactive compound, CBD does not induce a ‘high’.

When formulated into organic hemp seed oil, CBD can taste earthy or even grassy. The taste of Dragonfly CBD oil also depends on whether it incorporates Narrow Spectrum or Broad Spectrum extract. The Broad Spectrum (sold in bronze packaging) is designed for more experienced users, as it offers a fuller flavour, retaining terpenes and other plant material. Alternatively, the Narrow Spectrum products provide for a lighter alternative and are recommended for all CBD users.

Most consumers feel the effects after 2 weeks of continuous use.

However, no two people interact with any compounds in the exact same way, but studies suggest that taking CBD sublingually usually takes anywhere between 1 hour and 6 hours for its levels in the bloodstreams to peak. Some people do report anecdotal evidence of the effects taking place much faster than that.

This may depend on the method of consumption, as well as the weight of the person taking it. However, as a general rule, the effects of CBD administration sublingually (under the tongue) last for around 3-4 hours. Research into topical application is still in its preliminary stages, but some estimate that effects can last for five hours with this method.

A product is considered THC free by Dragonfly CBD if it is confirmed as containing a non-detectable level of THC by a third party laboratory.

As an entirely natural compound, CBD is ‘extracted’ – not made – from our carefully cultivated Cannabis Sativa L., also known as Hemp. Shortly after harvesting, organic flowers are processed in our laboratory using a state-of-the-art extraction process.

The plant material is first soaked in ethanol to remove all cannabinoids. This ethanol-cannabinoid mix is then distilled and evaporated into natural CBD extract using advanced chromatography techniques. Not only does the ethanol help to produce high quality CBD oil, it also protects the extract from bacteria and fermentation.

Unfortunately, CBD companies are not allowed to market products for pets in Europe. Dragonfly CBD has been designed for human consumption only.

Production costs for the best CBD extract are unavoidably high. The controlled nature of cannabis production requires the Dragonfly CBD facilities to be government–licensed and subjected to stringent quality measures. The manufacturing process is carefully monitored throughout; from the selection of specific strains of seed that yield high-quality cannabis to a specialist extraction process that guarantees the consistent quality of Dragonfly CBD products.

CBD drops are best placed under the tongue and held for a couple of minutes to help with absorption through the lining of the mouth. If preferred, CBD oil can be swallowed and absorbed via the gut. There is also some evidence to suggest that taking CBD with food can increase absorption, so we would recommend taking the product with food at the same time(s) each day.

For some people, only a small amount of CBD achieves the desired effect, whereas others will need a much larger serving to be satisfied. By starting at 15mg per day, you can increase your CBD levels easily, as a lower serving might be all that you require. If you don’t feel the desired effects after a week of continual use, double your serving size, repeating this process each week, until satisfied, up to a maximum of 70mg per day.

No. The “high” that is often associated with Cannabis requires the psychoactive cannabinoid THC to be present. Dragonfly Biosciences carefully selects Cannabis strains that are low in THC and high in CBD and then uses specialist extraction techniques to remove THC content from its Dragonfly CBD oil range.

No. CBD is a non-psychoactive substance and at present is not something that drugs tests scan for. You should always ensure you are taking a product that is THC-free. Check that your supplier has lab reports available on its website verifying its cannabinoid content.
