Can Cbd Gummies Get You High?

Cannabidiol or CBD has taken the world by storm. It can be found in energy drinks, skin care products, and even tasty, little sweets. However, is it so popular because it gets you high? Have people been hoodwinked into using cannabis products by placing CBD into everyday products? Well, sorry conspiracy theorists, we have to stop you right there. CBD products will not get you high. At least they shouldn’t if you have purchased them from a reputable source. In this article, we will discuss why CBD products are safe to use. So, grab your CBD gummies, and let’s get started.

Why can’t CBD make you high?

Hemp and marijuana are both cannabis plants. There are many cannabinoids present in all cannabis plants. CBD or cannabidiol is just one of them. The compound has no psychoactive properties whatsoever. The component that is responsible for the high that people experience with marijuana is called THC. Furthermore, hemp plants contain less than 0.3% THC. This is why they are used instead of marijuana in CBD oil production.

CBD can’t make you high because it does not contain any THC. Even if there is THC present after the refining process it will be well below 0.3%. This is why CBD cannot make you high. It is also why CBD products are legal in so many states.

All reputable CBD product manufacturers or suppliers should be able to provide you with a certificate of analysis (COA) to prove this. The COA will give you a breakdown of the CBD isolate and all trace ingredients that were detected. Thus, you will be able to see if there is THC present and in what quantities.

Can you overdose from too much CBD?

CBD gummies are pretty tasty, so it’s good to know that no matter how many you eat, you won’t end up overdosing on CBD. However, you may experience drowsiness or an upset stomach in extreme cases. It is best to stick to recommended doses and avoid eating too many at once.  You must remember that everyone’s digestive system is different and it might take longer for some people to feel the effects.

Can Kids Eat CBD Gummies?

As safe as CBD gummies are for adult use,  you should not give your child CBD without first consulting their doctor. Many parents use CBD to treat epilepsy, seizures, ADHD, and autism.  However, they do so with consultation from a pediatrician.

Dosage and type of CBD are important factors when dealing with kids. If you mistakenly give your kids CBD gummies that contain THC, it could have severe repercussions. Thus, it is best to keep the CBD gummies out of reach because they might confuse them for real sweets.

Conclusion

So, CBD gummies cannot get you high but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy its other benefits. There are many gummies on the market that can help you with anxiety, pain, and sleep disorders. However, you should always remember to use them responsibly and keep them someplace where the kids won’t find them.
