CBD Tinctures
The most effective introduction method for newbies to try CBD is via a tincture. A tincture is produced by steeping cannabis flower in high proof grain alcohol in a metal vat. The steeping time allows the active compounds in cannabis to infuse. After the mixture is boiled you are left with a concentrated solution. 
CBD by itself is relatively tasteless unless combined with a flavoured carrier oil. Taking 10 to 20ml off CBD to be absorbed underneath the tongue for several minutes is the fastest way to recover from anxiety, inflammation and pain. Taking CBD after a heavy night of drinking is great way to counteract hangovers.
CBD Body Bar
Combining a CBD tincture with a CBD infused body bar is the quickest and most efficient way to deal with aches and pains from working out. A good CBD body bar instantly loosens up tight muscles.
