How Do I Vape CBD? Your Guide to Hemp Oil Vapes

In our complete guide to vaping CBD, we discuss what vaping is, the benefits of vaping CBD, our CBD vape products from Dixie Botanicals®, and tips for how to vape CBD.

Vaping has become wildly popular among consumers looking for a flavorful alternative to smoking, but did you know that it is also a great way to add CBD to your system throughout the day?

If you are new to vaping, then this guide is just what you need to decide if vaping CBD is right for you, including the basics on how to vape and the advantages of vaping CBD versus using other CBD products. Keep reading to learn more about how to vape CBD. 

What is Vaping?

Vaping is the act of using a vaporizer to heat your vape material to its vaporization point and inhaling the resulting vapor to absorb its active ingredients. The vaporization point is a temperature that is below the point when combustion occurs but hot enough to turn the active ingredients in your vape material into an inhalable vapor.

When vaping CBD, your vape heats your CBD vape liquid or oil to create a clean, flavorful vapor. Keep reading to learn more about why vaping is seen as safer than smoking.

Why Should I Vape CBD?

You might already know about the benefits of CBD and how it can help support your health, but did you know that vaping CBD has unique benefits that set it apart from other CBD products?

Vaping CBD is popular as a fast and efficient way to add CBD to your system. That is because when you vape, the inhaled CBD is quickly absorbed by the lung’s alveoli. This allows the CBD to move directly into the bloodstream through which it is distributed to receptors throughout the body. Inhalation also has one of the highest bioavailabilities of all the methods of using CBD, so effects can be more prominent, even when using smaller amounts.

What Do I Need to Vape CBD?

In order to get started vaping CBD products, you will need a couple of things. First, you will need a vape pen that is specially equipped to vaporize CBD liquid or CBD oil. Next you will need something to vape. The Dixie Botanicals® line of CBD products offers two vapable products – CBD Vape Oil and CBD Vape Liquid. You can shop for a variety of vaporizers equipped to vape Dixie Botanicals® CBD vape products in our store.

Shop for CBD vape products here. Shop for compatible vaporizers here. Keep reading to learn how to vape CBD. 

How Do I Vape CBD?

Medical Marijuana, Inc. offers two types of CBD vape products. We will discuss the best way to use them both to help you choose which product is best for you and get started vaping CBD.

First is our disposable CBD Vape Oil cartridge. This prefilled, single use vape cartridge is loaded with 1 ml of vape oil featuring 250 mg of CBD. Simply screw the cartridge onto any compatible 510 thread battery. If your vape has a battery that is activated by a button, press the button while inhaling. The built in atomizer will heat the oil to its vaporization point, creating a vapor that you can inhale. If you have a buttonless vape, just take a puff from your vape’s mouthpiece and the atomizer will activate, creating vapor. Then inhale the vapor and exhale. Vaping CBD is easy as that. 

Also in the Medical Marijuana, Inc. store is Dixie Botanicals® CBD Vape Liquid. Available in three delicious flavors (Vanilla Caramel, Blackberry Lemonade, and Sour Watermelon), each 30 ml bottle of CBD Vape Liquid contains 1000 mg of CBD. This drippable CBD liquid can be added to any liquid compatible vape. Once loaded into your vape’s tank or pod, activate your vape as discussed above and inhale the vapor.

You can learn more about how to fill your vape, how to vape CBD, and similar topics on our Vaping 101 page.

What Should I Expect When Vaping CBD?

Now that you know how to vape CBD, let’s talk about the effects you should expect. The first thing to know about vaping CBD is that you won’t feel intoxicated. That is because CBD doesn’t affect the body the same as THC, the compound in marijuana that causes a high.

Instead, consumers who have used CBD report feeling relaxed, so vaping CBD when pressure sets in can help you shake off stress and perform at your best. Vaping CBD can also help calm you down if you find yourself susceptible to nervousness.

CBD can also offer a soothing effect on the body, perfect for before, during, and after intense activity. Keeping your CBD vape close at hand lets you take advantage of CBD’s comforting effects.

CBD interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system, which is responsible for maintaining a healthy balance in your body’s systems by affecting functions like sleep, mood, appetite and metabolism, and immune response. CBD boosts the endocannabinoid’s ability to keep this balance, allowing your to feel your best and perform at your peak. Vaping CBD through the day ensures that your body is continuously being supported all day long.

The vape products and vaping advice featured in Medical Marijuana, Inc. posts are specifically for people looking to support their health with legal natural botanicals and are not created with nicotine or tobacco users in mind.

Here’s How CBD Can Help, Whether You’re Healthy or Not

When you’re healthy and feeling good everyday, it is easy to overlook the benefits of a cannabidiol (CBD) oil supplement. While the groundbreaking research on CBD’s natural benefits have prompted many people facing health problems to incorporate CBD oil into their regimen, CBD offers botanical properties that are beneficial for anyone interested in promoting wellness, even if you’re healthy.

Derived from cannabis plants like hemp, CBD oil is a natural, non-intoxicating concentrate that is high in the compound CBD. CBD, one of over 100 natural cannabinoids so far identified in cannabis, interacts with your body’s own native systems to encourage balance and health.

The benefits of a CBD supplement routine apply to everyone, whether you’re facing challenging health issues or are at the peak of good health. Here’s a look at why you should join the CBD wellness trend.

How CBD Encourages Wellness

CBD and other trace cannabinoids in hemp oil — like those found in Medical Marijuana, Inc. CBD products — interact with the body’s native endocannabinoid system. This system, found in all mammals, is tasked with regulating a wide array of the body’s functions like mood, appetite, sleep, hormone production, and even pain and immune system responses. The endocannabinoid system is regularly adjusting these functions in an effort to keep them in balance.

A properly functioning endocannabinoid system is crucial for our health and well-being. It serves the vital purpose of ensuring our cells maintain optimum performance. When something in our external environment causes a cell to become out of balance, the endocannabinoid system is called upon to make immediate adjustments to bring things back into balance, or homeostasis.

Cannabinoids like CBD benefit the endocannabinoid system by interacting with cannabinoid receptors found in the central and peripheral nervous systems and the immune system. This stimulates the endocannabinoid system, supporting its efforts to keep your functions in balance and encouraging it to function at an optimal level.

For healthy people, supplementing this large self-regulatory system with plant derived cannabinoids is a potential way to encourage and maintain health and promote wellness.

Hemp Oil Provides Essential Dietary Requirements

CBD oil also supports the maintenance of a complete and healthy diet. More than a source of CBD and other trace cannabinoids, CBD oil also offers nutrients that are often insufficient in the current diets of everyone, including those who are healthy. Getting these nutrients is a crucial part of maintaining overall wellness. 

CBD hemp oil is a natural source of essential vitamins and minerals like:

  • B complex vitamins
  • Vitamin C
  • Vitamin E
  • Calcium
  • Magnesium

Other beneficial elements found within CBD oil include fatty acids, protein, terpenes, and flavonoids. These dietary nutrients are critical in allowing your body to stay functioning efficiently.

CBD benefits are not just for people with adverse health conditions. Even if you’re healthy, CBD oil can support healthy living and wellness. The balancing effects of CBD combined with the nutritional content of hemp oil will help ensure your body is given what it needs for peak performance each day.

Adding CBD To Your Daily Routine

It is simple to add CBD to your daily routine with the wide array of CBD hemp oil supplements available from Medical Marijuana, Inc. Our collection of CBD hemp oil products vary in potency, route of administration, and price to offer solutions that meet your needs, lifestyle, and wellness goals.

Products like Real Scientific Hemp Oil™ (RSHO™) are ideal if you’re looking for the highest concentration of CBD. Our CBD oil tincture sprays and capsules are a popular option for those looking for the most convenient way to supplement with CBD or who are always on the go. For quick effects vape oils and CBD isolate which can be dabbed are good choices. Meanwhile, our RSHO™ MCT oil based liquids can be blended into smoothies, salads, or your morning coffee.

CBD oil is non-intoxicating, so you can supplement your endocannabinoid system and enjoy CBD benefits while avoiding the distraction of getting high.

Get Started with CBD

Because CBD hemp oil is considered a nutritional supplement, it is available to purchase throughout the U.S. states and in over 40 countries worldwide. Unlike medical marijuana, CBD hemp oil is accessible to everyone, regardless of a prescription.

Get help finding the ideal type of CBD oil supplement for you with our CBD Hemp Oil Product Recommendation Tool. You can learn more about CBD through our education page or visit our online shop to get started with CBD today.
