Do you want to start using CBD but are afraid of side effects? Or maybe you are already using hemp products and are wondering what are the side effects of CBD hemp oil? Or maybe you are experiencing some unpleasant discomforts while using the oil and think they are CBD side effects? Find the answers in this article!

Side effects of CBD? How to avoid them?

There are several most commonly mentioned complications after using CBD products. They most often occur when the product is used incorrectly, but there is a very easy way to avoid them altogether.

1. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations

There’s a reason we include usage recommendations on our packaging! The suggested daily dosage is right there so that you don’t get unwanted side effects from using CBD supplements. Especially if it’s our first contact with a hemp product, let’s stick to this minimum serving, which is 1 drop, 3 times a day. Let’s not consume three drops at a time, once a day, and let’s not increase the portion for no reason or experiment with using large amounts of the product.

Hempking products are highly concentrated and many times that one drop, compared to a drop of another product, will simply be more potent. Keep this in mind!

2. Keep an eye on regularity

Consuming hemp supplements with CBD is all about regularity – it’s key! Using three servings a day, regularly, will make such supplementation most beneficial for you, as cannabidiol lasts in the body for 6-8h. What if you forget any of the servings? Definitely do not consume a double one! Irregular use and “catching up” on portions can cause CBD oil-induced side effects!

If you skip a serving, simply consume the normal amount of drops as always and adjust the next serving according to the time. Do not combine portions together!

3. Don’t mix CBD with medications without consulting your doctor

This is very important, especially with life-saving drugs, cardiac medications, hormonal medications or medications taken during serious disease treatments. CBD is metabolized by the same enzyme in the liver as some of these drugs. It can enhance or weaken their effects. And it can significantly affect your health! Be sure to seek medical advice before consuming hemp supplements to avoid the side effects of CBD mixed with medications.

Hempking hemp supplements are natural and safe. But like any product, they can interact with other substances. Don’t underestimate this!

CBD oil. Are there side effects?

What are the side effects of CBD oil? How can you tell if you are just experiencing side effects from using hemp oil?

Here are the most common ones:

• Diarrhea
• Change in appetite
• Sluggishness, drowsiness
• Dry mouth
• Irritability
• Strengthening or weakening of the effect of drugs

Improper use of hemp products can make you experience these side effects of CBD oil.[1,2] Your health is also of great importance here. If you are prone to digestive problems, are on medications, or are known to react more strongly than others to any products, even herbal ones – use CBD with caution, and consult your doctor. And above all, if you decide to take CBD supplementation, follow the instructions and be patient!
