CBD is a natural substance and the abbreviation for cannabinoid and has powerful medicinal effects. However, CBD should not be confused with cannabis or cannabis oil, as this contains THC. The substance THC gives a ‘high’ (or stoned) feeling, CBD oil definitely does NOT!
Misconceptions
CBD is 100% natural, does not cause addiction and has no side effects. CBD is completely legal in the Netherlands and also in many other European countries. When used as directed, CBD is not known to cause allergies or allergic reactions. CBD can block certain medications (e.g. anti-psychotics), making them ineffective. If you take medication, do check with your GP.
Endocannabinoid system
Cannabidiol is an endogenous substance produced by the body in small amounts. The human body has a very extensive endocannabinoid system. This is an important biological system for humans and animals. CBD is a plant-based cannabidiol and activates cannabinoid receptors (CB receptors) in the body. Meanwhile, there is increasing scientific evidence that CBD is a very effective drug to use against a variety of applications. In particular, its anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effects are central to this.
DISCOVER THE DIFFERENCE: oral versus patches
Research shows that oral products (in the form of tablets, capsules, etc.) have low bioavailability (absorption by the body). This is due to the so-called first-pass effect. When digested by the stomach, the stomach wall and kidneys (among others), the substances are broken down by the stomach and take up to 2 hours. And only 20-30% enters the bloodstream, and the resulting percentage is only 6%! Patches release substances through the skin within 10 minutes and enter the bloodstream directly. After all, there is no digestion process. This increases the absorption capacity to ± 65%.
We can therefore say that these patches (due to their 15x higher effectiveness) are 15x cheaper than oil!

WHEN SHOULD I APPLY THE PLASTER?
It depends on your complaint. You can apply the plaster in the morning, for example, after showering and/or in the evening before going to bed. It is wise to vary the spot in some cases people get some degree of skin irritation.
WHERE SHOULD I APPLY THE PLASTER?
It is best to stick the plaster on a painful spot and otherwise on a pleasant spot, for example on the hip. If your skin is a bit oily, we recommend cleaning the patch before applying. This will make the plaster stick better.
SIDE EFFECTS
If you have a high sensitivity (notice a strong reaction), the dose is too high and you should stop or you can divide the plaster in two or cut it into quarters. This way you can reduce the dose.
REACTION ON THE SKIN
In some cases, users experience an allergic reaction on the skin (skin irritation). In this case, stick the plaster in another place or stop using it.
COMBINATION WITH MEDICINES
Natural ingredients may potentiate or block certain medicines or some drugs. If you are taking medication, consult a doctor.
NOTE: You must use the plasters every day for at least 14 days to draw a conclusion! You can also apply 2 or 3 patches to see if a higher dose works better for you. This differs from person to person.
