To kick things off, let's understand a bit more about the main star of the show: CBD, otherwise known as cannabidiol.

What is CBD?

CBD is a cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant. Unlike the intoxicating THC cannabinoid, CBD does not produce a high. It does, however, work with the body in a number of different ways.

CBD interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system, which produces the body’s own endocannabinoids. This system equates to the endogenous cannabinoid receptors found naturally inside the human body. CBD mimics these receptors, allowing for the body to naturally produce cannabinoids in order to promote well-being.

The endocannabinoid system is a self-regulating system. It sends subtle messages to the brain, telling it when to release chemicals such as serotonin or dopamine. Many CBD users say that CBD can help them to reap several well benefits, including:

  • Increased focus and relaxation
  • Reduced inflammation and pain
  • Less nausea
  • Relief for PTSD, depression and anxiety
  • Neuroprotective qualities
  • Cardiovascular health

 

CBD products harness the potential wellness benefits of CBD, but they don't have the same psychotropic effects of THC. Many people say CBD-infused drinks can help them stay focused and chill out.

Some of the benefits you will receive from drinking a CBD-infused beverage include increased energy, improved mental clarity, and heightened focus.
Relaxation, stress relief and mood enhancement are also effects some users experience. Others also use CBD to help alleviate pain and inflammation.

The effects of CBD can vary from one person to the next, depending on weight, tolerance and other factors.

Are CBD Drinks Safe?

CBD is legal on a federal level and the WHO supports CBD as a safe, non-addictive compound. But what about CBD drinks? And are they really safe?

The safety of any CBD product depends entirely on the brand you buy. Always check the manufacturer before purchasing. One of the most important things to check for is a certificate of analysis (COA). These are typically issued by a third party testing facility and should be readily available to consumers. Each product will have its own specific details, but you should be able to find one with the following information:

  • CBD Content (mg)
  • THC Content (mg)
  • Terpene Content

 

You will also be able to see if there are any harmful residual solvents or even pesticides in the product. If a brand can't produce a COA on request or makes them difficult to find, then you should find a different brand to support. It is essential that a third party issues these certificates so that you can be sure the results are unbiased.

Another thing to look for is where the company sourced its CBD. Look for products made with CBD sourced from hemp. Typical hemp-derived CBD comes from the hemp cannabis plant, which has been bred to contain low concentrations of psychoactive THC. Non-hemp CBD comes with the additional risk of THC. So, if you do opt for non-hemp-based products, it's essential you check the third party lab results, so you know the THC levels.

As a general statement, CBD drinks are safe. But you have to check the company's credentials.

The Final Word: Are CBD Drinks Safe?

The safety of a CBD drink hinges on the company and how they manufacture its products. Always check the COA to confirm the:

Cannabinoid content (including Delta 9 THC levels)
Residual solvents and possible pesticides
