What is Pure CBD Paste Used for?

Introduction

The use of plants as a fundamental component of treatment plans is perhaps the most intriguing part of the therapeutic healthcare system. In the early years, plant-based medicine was confined to rural parts of the world.

However, the 20^th century marked a culmination of knowledge and experience from medical professionals, traditional healers and homoeopaths who brought natural medication to the modern world.

One of the plants that took centre stage in the treatment field is cannabis, otherwise known as hemp or marijuana. This plant engulfed the homoeopathic industry with the release of oils, balms, gummies and more; patients have multiple options to choose from.

Although all cannabidiol products have their advantage, CBD paste is the most potent. According to several studies and world-renowned experts, the paste can treat the following:

• Nausea
• Cancer
• Epilepsy
• Allergies
• Asthma
• Chronic pain
• Mood disorders, such as anxiety or depression
• Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease
• Arthritis or joint-related pain
• Sleep disorders, such as insomnia
• Migraine, cluster, and tension headaches
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
• Multiple sclerosis (MS)

A Detailed Look at Raw CBD Paste

Pure CBD paste is a putty-dough like substance that can be ingested or topically applied to the body’s affected areas. Most pastes are combined with thick carriers such as butter, wax, and oil to help keep the product malleable and stable.

The paste is made from the resin of the hemp plant and is often referred to as raw, unrefined cannabidiol paste. It contains several compounds, including flavonoids and terpenes, along with a high concentration of cannabidiol compounds.

Like other cannabidiol based products on the market, the paste contains less than 0.3% of THC, which means it cannot cause euphoria or a ‘high’. The paste comes in syringes or tubes with screw caps, which fosters precise dosing.

Cannabidiol pastes are often recommended for advanced cannabis users who require substantial dose amounts. However, if patients wish to start their journey with the paste, they are advised to use the ‘start low, go slow’ method of dosing, which is commonly used in potent medication use.

Paste colours vary from one brand to another, but they are typically a soft green/brown colour and has a nutty, earthy or grassy taste. Pastes that are uncharacteristically dark or tar in colour should not be used.

Positive Aspects Linked to CBD Paste Use

The beauty of the cannabidiol compound is its sheer ability to transform into various forms. Products such as pure CBD paste is a testament to the compounds innate versatility. Most consumers who use the paste report positive results, with significant physical and psychological differences being noted.

Some of the other benefits include:

• The pastes high concentration level facilitates the treatment of severe illnesses that require high doses.
• The paste can be topically applied or taken sublingually.
• Short or long-term use of the cannabidiol paste will not cause patients to become dependent or addicted.
• The paste does not have severe side effects associated with its use.
• Cannabidiol pastes are natural/non-toxic, making them the ideal choice for elderly or sensitive patients.

How to Achieve Maximum Results When Using Pure CBD Paste

A large number of consumers believe that cannabidiol products do not require structured usage or dosage schedule. Although this may be true in some instance, it is always beneficial to take any treatment according to an adherence schedule. When it comes to raw CBD paste, most patients report that adherence to expert suggestions and guidelines fostered the best results.

Below are key points that should be implemented when using the cannabidiol paste:

Primary usage guidelines	Primary dosage guidelines
Although cannabidiol use is relatively safe, patients are still encouraged to check the contraindication list before using the paste.	Before dispensing the appropriate cannabidiol paste dose onto your hand/finger, ensure that your hands and nails are washed and clean.
Side effects associated with paste use is mild, manageable and very rarely occur. If patients experience any unwarranted effects, they are asked to stay calm as these effects are a normal occurrence at the beginning of any treatment plan. The effects typically disappear within a day or two, depending on how long the body takes to get familiar with the paste.	There is no ‘one size fits all dose’ for cannabidiol paste. However, experts have devised a guideline for dosing. The tube must be squeezed for 1-3 seconds until it covers 90% of the pinkie fingernail (this constitutes one serving). Experts suggest a single serving twice daily.
Patients who are using cannabidiol paste should not use other cannabis products in conjunction with it.	If the paste is being incorporated into consumables like food or beverages, a maximum of two squeezes which equates to two pinkie fingernails, should be used.

Users who have implemented these guidelines reported that their recovery periods where accelerated by almost 50% as they saw successful results almost 5 times faster than manufacturer labels indicated. A compilation of user reviews shows that cannabidiol products such as these are indeed effective.

Cannabidiol Paste Vs Cannabidiol Oil

Unlike other products, cannabidiol pastes and oils cannot be directly compared, as they both produce individual benefits. There are in fact some notable differences between them, one being the cannabidiol content in each option.

The paste typically contains far more cannabidiol compounds, which means users will have to consume less than they would if they were using cannabidiol oil. This makes the paste a more economical choice in the long run.

Another difference is the manufacturing process, simply put, the paste is the raw material used to create the oil. The paste is dissolved into a carrier oil to transform it into a more palatable oil consistency.

Most users consider the downside of the paste to be its pungent earthy taste and aroma, while the oil has significantly toned down tastes and aromas. In terms of physical appearance, the paste comes in a squeeze tube or syringe, while the oil comes in a dropper bottle.

Although it is perfectly legal to travel with cannabidiol oil in hand, some users find pure CBD paste to be a better option, because it fits comfortably in a pocket and takes just a minute to administer.
