How Long Do CBD Edibles Last? A Simple Guide

August 12, 2020 / by Andrew / Leave a Comment

Some people, especially those who haven’t tried CBD products, might say, “Oh, CBD’s just another health and wellness trend. It will go away soon.”

Now, if this were a bet, they’d lose big time. That’s because the CBD industry is here to stay.

Of course, you already know that, which is why you’re here. And it’s a good thing that you’re trying to explore your CBD options.

That being said, let’s talk about CBD edibles – their effects, how long they last, and tips on dosing.

CBD Edibles: The Basics

Before we dive deeper into the effects of CBD-infused edibles, let’s go over what they are and how they differ from other CBD products.

As their name implies, CBD edibles are CBD products you can eat. Compared to other CBD products, edibles are usually more affordable.

Another advantage is they don’t put smoke into your lungs, unlike CBD vape products. Plus, there are so many varieties to choose from. You can try CBD gummies, chocolates, cookies, cakes, candies, and so on.

Effects of CBD Edibles

If you’ve tried weed brownies before, don’t expect that CBD edibles will give you a “high.” Though THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol) are both cannabis compounds, only the former produces euphoric effects.

As for CBD’s health benefits, studies suggest that cannabidiol may help provide relief for certain conditions such as anxiety, insomnia, and chronic pain. If you plan on taking CBD edibles for any of these conditions, you should know that it may take up to an hour before you feel therapeutic effects. Like CBD capsules, edibles have to pass through your digestive system and the liver before the active ingredient (CBD) gets into your blood.

Once it gets into the bloodstream, though, its effects can last between 4 to 6 hours.

Tips for Finding the Right CBD Edible Dosage

Maybe you’ve tried edibles before, but have doubts because you feel they’re not doing anything for you. It could be that you just haven’t found the right dose.

Keep in mind that even though the CBD edibles effect can last up to 6 hours, there are factors that can decrease the bioavailability of CBD. For example, if you take CBD edibles on a full stomach, your digestive system will have to digest your meal first before it can start absorbing CBD.

This is why some people prefer to consume CBD edibles on an empty stomach. Another factor that could affect the effectiveness of CBD edibles is your metabolism. Those with fast metabolism may need a more potent edible.

However, if you’re a beginner and have a fast metabolism, it’s still advisable to go low and slow with CBD edible dosing. You also have to choose the best CBD edibles you can find even if it means paying a bit more. Always buy from a reputable brand so that you can be assured of the product’s quality and safety.
