The most effective method for absorbing CBD into the bloodstream is using the sublingual method—place the oil under your tongue and allow it to be absorbed. Solid Coconut Oil can also be used as a butter substitute—spread it on crackers or melt it on veggies. Olive Oil can be used for dipping bread, drizzling on foods, or in sauces and salad dressings. Avoid high temperatures which can cause the cannabinoids to break down and lose their potency.
