There is a wide range of CBD products available on the market. CBD flowers are just one of them with their unique features and characteristics. In this article, we will give you a basic overview of CBD flowers and their possible benefits.

What are CBD flowers?

CBD flowers, also referred to as hemp buds, are the flowers of female hemp plants containing 0 to 0.3% THC. They can come in raw flower form or as pre-rolls, and one can smoke or vape them. CBD flowers are available in several different hemp strains, so all CBD users can find the option that best suits their tastes.

CBD flowers will not get you high

Despite many people associating CBD with euphoria or getting high, this is actually not true. The potential effects you may experience from taking CBD flowers are not psychoactive. Since hemp buds have very low THC content, they will not cause the so-called “entourage effect” or, in other words, won’t get you high. So why is this the case? Well, compared to THC, both can affect the endocannabinoid system differently. CBD can interact more readily with CB2 receptors found in the body’s immune system, while THC can influence CB1 receptors located mostly in the brain and nervous system of the body.

CBD’s action when smoking CBD flowers

When choosing between different methods of consuming CBD, some people attempt to pick the one with the fastest action. With an availability of 45%, smoking can be one of the quickest ways to experience the possible effects of CBD. As one smokes CBD flowers, the cannabinoid in the substance is transported by the smoke to the lungs, where it enters the bloodstream directly. According to various sources, CBD can reach its peak in the bloodstream in just 3 minutes. Compared to taking CBD oils, tinctures or edibles, for example, this method can have a shorter onset of action time.

CBD flowers and possible therapeutic effects

Several studies have shown different results regarding the possible therapeutic effects of CBD flowers, which are presented below:

• 
  

  The study showed that CBD can play a promising role in dealing with anxiety disorders.

It’s essential to only order your CBD flowers from trustworthy manufacturers to ensure you experience the true potential therapeutic effects of CBD. So, be a watchful consumer and always ask for third-party test results.

CBD flowers can help to quit smoking tobacco cigarettes

According to statistics, smoking tobacco cigarettes is one of the main causes of diseases and even deaths worldwide. Nowadays, some tobacco cigarette smokers are looking for more healthy alternatives. As several studies have shown, the use of CBD can reduce dependence on a wide range of addictive products and help combat obsessive behaviours. One of these studies found that after taking CBD, people smoked fewer tobacco cigarettes than the group of people who received a placebo (individuals who used hemp flowers as a substitute for cigarettes experienced a 40% decrease in cigarette smoking).
