CBD

Cannabidiol is a phytocannabinoid discovered in 1940. It is one of 113 identified cannabinoids in cannabis plants and accounts for up to 40% of the plant’s extract. In 2018, clinical research on cannabidiol included preliminary studies of anxiety, cognition, movement disorders, and pain.

THC

Tetrahydrocannabinol, a crystalline compound that is the main active ingredient of cannabis.

sublingual

means under the tongue. In this method, the user applies a few drops of CBD oil or cannabis tincture under the tongue. This method is different from directly swallowing the tincture or oil.
Sublingually taking CBD oil is a convenient alternative to smoking or vaping.
Taking CBD oil under your tongue and holding it there for 60 seconds sends the molecule directly into your bloodstream. When CBD oil is administered sublingually, it should be held under the tongue so that the mucus membranes in the mouth can absorb the oil’s active ingredients.

The Pechoti method

By applying cannabis oil to the belly button, the Pechoti gland is a natural delivery method that allows cannabinoids to cover the entire body. While more research is needed to understand this, this is unlike any other delivery method.
When applying CBD oil to your belly button, cannabinoids can effectively be absorbed into the blood vessels and travel throughout the body in a quick and non-invasive way.
Recommended by parents who use CBD on their kids & don’t like give it to them sublingually.

Tincture

A medicine made by dissolving a drug in alcohol.
“the remedies can be administered in the form of tinctures”

Full spectrum CBD

means that an oil or product contains all the cannabinoids that are found in the cannabis plant in nature( terpenes, cannabinoids, flavonoids, and fatty acids ), rather than just CBD (Cannabidiol). – Full Spectrum – uses various elements of plants + 0.3% or lower THC

Broad Spectrum CBD

Full–spectrum CBD is full of all the terpenes, cannabinoids, flavonoids, and fatty acids found in hemp, all of which have therapeutic value of their own and help create what’s know as the entourage effect. Broad–spectrum CBD is a little bit of both. Broad–spectrum CBD is full–spectrum CBD without any THC. – Broad Spectrum – uses various elements of plant and THC-free

CBD isolate

is cannabidiol in its purest form. To produce this extract, CBD is isolated and then refined to strip out any additional cannabinoids, terpenes, and plant components found in the hemp plant. … Isolates contain only one cannabinoid: CBD. – Isolate -only CBD

Hemp oil

(hemp seed oil or hempseed oil) is oil obtained by pressing hemp seeds. Cold pressed, unrefined hemp oil is dark to clear light green in color, with a nutty flavor. … It should not be confused with hash oil, a tetrahydrocannabinol-containing oil made from the Cannabis flower.

Kratom

Is believed to act on opioid receptors. At low doses, kratom acts as a stimulant, making users feel more energetic. At higher doses, it reduces pain and may bring on euphoria. … People who use kratom for relaxation report that because it is plant-based, it is natural and safe.
It’s a preparation of the leaves of an SE Asian evergreen tree, consumed (depending on the amount) as a sedative or a stimulant.

ml

The “ml” stands for milliliter. The abbreviation “ml” is typically pronounced M-L, saying the letters out loud, or milliliter. This is a unit of measurement for liquids. Similar to mm, ml stands for one thousandth of a liter

mg

“mg” is an abbreviation for milligram, a unit of measurement of mass in the metric system equal to a thousandth of a gram. A gram is equal to the mass of one milliliter, one thousandth of a liter, of water

What is the difference between a milligram and a milliliter?

https://www.thecalculatorsite.com/articles/units/convert-mg-to-ml.php

One milliliter (British spelling: millilitre) (ml) is 1/1000 of a liter and is a unit of volume. 1 milligram (mg) is 1/1000 of a gram and is a unit of mass/weight. This means that we require an extra piece of information in order to be able to convert the measurement across. That extra piece of information is a density or concentration of the substance you are using (the density of every substance is different).

Densities and concentrations

Let’s look at an example. Pure water has a density of 1,000 kg/m³. Crude oil, however, has a density of around 870 kg/m³. Two very difference substances. So, you can see how important it is to ensure that you use the correct density figure for your substance in order to get an accurate conversion. Once you know the density/concentration of your substance, you can put calculus to work. Note that you need to ensure that the mass unit matches the unit used in the density. So, if the density is in g/cm³ (grams per cubic centimeter) you will need to ensure your mass figure is in grams. To convert from milligrams (mg) to grams (g) you divide by 1000.
