Whether you’re incorporating CBD items into your daily lifestyle to help with everything from anxiety and depression to complications brought on by cancer medications, cannabinoids possess a plethora of healing powers to help you live your best life.

But what happens when you’re traveling with CBD? Is it legal? Is it only permitted in states where THC is approved? What about flying internationally?

Don’t worry. We’ve got you covered with these tips for traveling with CBD.

1. Can you travel domestically with CBD?

Unlike THC, which runs the gamut from legal to medicinal to entirely illegal depending on the state you’re in, CBD products are permitted in the United States even if you drive across state lines. 

What about flying? According to the Transportation Security Administration, “Marijuana and certain cannabis-infused products, including some cannabidiol oil, remain illegal under federal law except for products that contain no more than 0.3% THC on a dry weight basis or that are approved by FDA.” 

If your CBD product contains more than 0.3% THC, it’s relegated to the no-fly zone.

2. Can you travel internationally with CBD?

The ability to travel internationally is summed up nicely by the Portland-based CBD experts at Mendi. “CBD is not yet legal in all countries. Some countries exist in a gray area, but in some countries, CBD products are illegal and could cause you big problems. International flights are subject to a different level of security checks and law enforcement by customs agents.”

Bottom line: Know your risks and confirm the policies and laws of your destination country before tossing CBD items into your carry-on luggage.

3. Packing your CBD with liquids on your flight

Treat CBD liquids and creams precisely as you do items like mouthwash and toothpaste. That means no more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) per container and stored in a quart-sized clear bag with your toiletries and other related items.

Bonus tip: Do not attempt to hide CBD items of any kind. The products are perfectly legal but stashing them out of sight could raise TSA agents’ eyebrows and make them wonder if you’ve something to hide.

4. Read the label before you leave town

How do you know if the items you’re traveling out of state with are good to go? Carefully read the labels of all your products to ensure each contains less than 0.3% THC. If you don’t, those CBD items suddenly become THC items in the eyes of the law, and depending on which state you’re visiting, this could be horrible news.

Traveling with CBD doesn’t have to be stressful. Just make sure to research your destination’s laws and transport them properly when taking to the sky.

It’s evident that CBD has grown in popularity worldwide.  The increased awareness is not unconnected with the growing research interest and the product’s potential health benefits. Those trying to buy this product for the first time might be overwhelmed by its sheer quantity.  The market comprises several CBD products; someone who does not know anything about CBD products might end up making the wrong choice. 

To avoid confusion, you should look into several factors before purchasing a CBD product.  For instance, you need to consider the potency of the product, the types of CBD oils for sale, the manufacturer, etc.

You must also be aware of the effect of CBD and how it interacts with other medications.  This knowledge will help you guide against the adverse reaction with other drugs. You should not hesitate to talk with the health care provider on CBD’s effect and its reaction with other medications.  

What is CBD?

Of course, you need to know what CBD is before attempting to buy a CBD product.  It’s a cannabinoid derived from the cannabis plant.  And it is next to the tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) hierarchy of abundance.  CBD acts differently on the body’s endocannabinoid system, leading to several effects, including sedative, anticonvulsive, anti-anxiety, and anti-inflammatory. 

Types of CBD

There is a vast range of cannabinoids extracts available on the market. To avoid confusion, you should acquaint yourself with the standard CBD-related terms. Bear in mind that some producers use these terms interchangeably. 

●       Broad-spectrum CBD

This type of CBD does not contain THC.  It usually comes with various other compounds, along with CBD, found in the plant.  Some of these compounds include terpene, CBN, or CBC. 

●       Full-Spectrum CBD

Unlike broad-spectrum CBD, this type usually contains about 0.3 percent THC, as approved by the federal law.  It is worth mentioning that this quantity is not high enough to cause a “high” effect that comes with the use of cannabis. 

The compounds in full-spectrum CBD are the same as that of Broad-spectrum products.  Note that this product may have an enhanced effect due to THC and other compounds’ presence. 

●       CBD Isolate

CBD isolate is different from the other types because it has one constituent, Cannabinoid, from the cannabis plant. This type of CBD does not contain THC or any other compound present in the plant. The advantage of CBD isolate is that it enables users to weigh the effect of cannabinoids alone with any influence from other compounds or substances.

What is COA?

One of the factors to consider before you buy a CBD product is the Certificate of Analysis.  This certificate confirms if the product contains the exact CBD content as advertised or claimed by the manufacturer. A COA should not come from the manufacturer; a third party must issue it. 

You can find a COA on the website of a CBD company; this allows prospective buyers to check out the contents of the product before making their buying decisions.  Furthermore, you must also check the source of the certificate; it must come from a trustworthy laboratory.

Potency Guide

The potency guide of a CBD product is an important feature that should not be overlooked. Note that it varies from one user to another, and it depends majorly on individual needs.

CBD doses come in milligrams.  However, it is worth noting that there is not enough research on the right dosage for various conditions.  Thus, start with lower doses and gradually increase it to find the dosage that works for you.  Once you have found your sweet spot, you should stick to it. 

CBD dosage of a user depends on several factors, including tolerance level, intake method, and users’ metabolism. 

Helpful Tips for Buying CBD products

No doubt, you have understood some essential factors that you should consider when purchasing a CBD product. That is not all; there are some helpful tips you need to consider before you place an order.  Whether you are a newbie or experienced CBD buyer, the following tips will surely guide you towards buying the best CBD products.

●       Go for Organic CBD Product

There are several similar-looking CBD products on the market. Therefore, you should use some essential criteria to narrow down your selections. 

So, one of these strategies is to buy organic CBD oils. Organic CBD oils are extracted from organic hemp plants.  It is a unique plant that has been used for hundreds of years to remove impurities from the soil.  A CBD product from this source does not contain any harmful pesticides and comes from one of the purest raw materials.  

●       Select a Full-Spectrum CBD oil

The advantage of a full-spectrum CBD product is that it contains several active compounds that will boost the product’s effectiveness.  These compounds work together to create the entourage effect, which can be explained as a natural synergy among all hemp constituents.  CBD is the main ingredient, but its effect on the body will not be significant without the support of terpenes and other cannabinoids compounds. 

●       Select a Product with Maximum Bioavailability

Bioavailability is another crucial factor to consider when buying a CBD product. Essentially, it means the amount of CBD that can be absorbed by the body. 

CBD oil drops are easily absorbed in the body compared to other CBD products. They can be absorbed directly through the capillaries located under the tongue. On the other hand, the CBD capsule will have to get to the stomach and pass through different digestive stages before it finally gets to the bloodstream.

●       Demand for Third-Party Lab Test Results

One of the ways to know the contents of the CBD product is to check the lab result.  However, some lab results do not give the actual content of a CBD product.  To avoid being misled by an inaccurate result, ask for a third-party laboratory test result; it is the only way to ensure that the content of the CBD oil for sale is not different from what is on its label. 

●       Check Customers Reviews

The review of past users of the product speaks volumes. So, you must take time to go through the customers’ comments on the CBD product you are about to buy. You can learn a lot from peer review sites.  You can also learn more about this product from Google or Facebook. 

What you really need to know

Our body systems do not react to CBD products the same way. Therefore, you should find out what works for you and stick to it. With the tips given above, you are sure to have a great chance of buying a high-quality CBD product that will suit your taste.
