The Karma Collection: a CBD product guide

To help you on your healing journey we’ve put together an easy-to-use guide for our Karma Collection. CBD can be taken in a variety of ways, offering you a spectrum of ideas on how to incorporate cannabidiol into your daily routine or how to utilise it for a specific concern. Each route has a differing efficacy due to the bioavailability (the amount of CBD that can be absorbed and the rate at which this happens) of CBD when ingested, inhaled, taken sublingually (under the tongue) or applied topically.

Unlike many CBD products on the market our products are made with true full spectrum, whole-plant extract, grown organically, selected carefully and are not treated with synthetic, additive terpenes or cannabidiol to increase the CBD content or enhance smell/flavour. Think of our products like a whole food as opposed to highly processed alternatives – so much more nutritious and good for your health!

Our gentle CO2extraction method, organic choices and hand-crafted, small-batch production with laboratory testing keep our products as naturally rich and safe as possible. They are offered to you in a carefully selected range, as detailed in our easy-to-follow guide below; allowing you to make an informed decision and help you on your personal path to healing power.

FULL SPECTRUM, WHOLE-PLANT CBD OIL

A simple tincture packed with goodness. Organically grown European Cannabis Sativa L. Hemp to be exact. A few drops held under the tongue 1-5 times a day could keep the doctor away! Our full spectrum (very important) signature drops come in three strengths 6%, 12% and 21% – everyone has their own level of natural tolerance to CBD and it’s part of your journey to discover what works best for you. The bioavailability of CBD when taken sublingually is 10-15% and is proven to be more effective when taken after eating on a full stomach, lasting up to 6 hours and taking around 10-20 minutes to take effect. Research has shown that taking CBD oil can help reduce inflammation, alleviate the symptoms of anxiety and depression, reduce stress and ease pain. Using CBD daily has also shown promising results for sufferers of epilepsy, cancer patients and those with behavioural disorders.

KARMA CBD MYLK

Love a CBD coffee to start your day? Our CBD Mylk could be the way. These innovative, vegan, water soluble drops offer five times improved bioavailability when compared to oil-based products made from the same CBD extract. As the body is mainly made up of water, it can be difficult to absorb oils into the bloodstream. Our water-soluble Mylk is absorbed and digested far more efficiently (up to 90%), which means more CBD,  and quicker! Because Karma Mylk is created from a broad-spectrum CBD extract (0% THC), with less of the terpenes and waxes, and chlorophylls, it comes without the earthy taste of hemp oil, which can be off putting for some. Simply added to any drink, or food – our CBD Mylk can be used in way more than just coffee. However, Mylk can still be used sublingually, like our CBD oil drops for the same amazing health benefits but with an efficacy onset of around 1-3 minutes!

CAPSULES

Though their bioavailability is slightly lower than our drops (9-12%), our capsules offer a slower release delivery. For users wishing to take a higher daily dose, or for those who, for whatever reason simply can’t use our oil, capsules provide an easy and measured alternative. They are no fuss, easy to swallow, fully legal food supplements, suitable for vegans, and should ideally be taken 15-20 minutes after food when your digestive system is most active and maximum absorption will occur! Capsules can slip into your routine up to twice daily with either 12 or 24mgs of CBD per capsule. For 12mg choose our 600mg pot or for 24mg opt for the 1200mg.

CBG/CBD

For the ultimate entourage effect our CBG/CBD is a perfect choice. CBG is often referred to as the ‘mother of all cannabinoids. CBG is where CBD is derived from (CBGa and CBGVa). All 120 different cannabinoids begin life as CBG in the immature plant. Whereas CBD indirectly interacts with the receptors of the endocannabinoid system, CBG interacts with them directly. The most notable differences of CBD and CBG are their healing effects. Both share similar anti- inflammatory, neuroprotective, calming and perhaps even anti-proliferative properties, but research has shown that CBG may treat bladder dysfunction and help those suffering from inflammatory bowel disease. Our CBG contains 500mg of CBG and 500mg of CBD carried in non-GMO organic hemp seed oil. So, each drop has 1.25mg of CBG and 1.25mg of CBD as well as a full array of the other cannabinoids and terpenes which make our products so popular.

BALMS

Our CBD infused topical balm is a real wonder product! We have seen instances of it working within 20 seconds. Typically, topicals take around 5 minutes to take effect and you can choose your own dosage when applying directly to the target area. The balm absorbs and works so quickly and effectively due to the high cannabidiol content and the presence of cannabinoid receptors on the skin. Our carefully created Karma balm is a unique blend of essential oils, organic beeswax and coconut oil with our organic single farm CBD Oil distillate that we infuse with our hand-picked and cleaned, organic, whole hemp flower, grown in the Polish mountains. This healing concoction not only smells amazing but is a rich source of naturally occurring vitamin E, terpenes, flavonoids, antioxidants and nutrients. Using the balm can be a powerful way to help ease muscle and joint pain as well as reducing inflammation as it reaches through the epidermis to be absorbed deep into the muscles and joints. We would recommend using the balm alongside one of our oral CBD oil products for maximum efficacy.

CARTRIDGES

Our most effective product and the world’s most concentrated, all-natural CBD pen. Did you know that when inhaled, CBD’s bioavailability can be up to 90%?! The large surface area of our lungs provides maximum and fast absorption and has an almost immediate onset with a duration of 2-3 hours. Our deluxe strains contain an over 9% CBG concentration for added entourage benefits. Just like our oils, our cartridges contain an incredible full spectrum cannabis extract created bespoke for our vape cartridges – nothing but organic and real cannabis-derived terpenes from our California Extractor in LA are included. Our original cartridges are created using a broad spectrum (0%THC) extract and offer a 52% CBD content, or you could go a step further and try a deluxe cartridge with a whopping 77% cannabinoid content. Vaping offers fast acting relief, with a smooth, mild and natural taste, with around 130 doses (dose = 3 puffs) per cartridge. Choosing a vape pen is an even more personalised experience as we have so many strains to choose from. Take care in reading the properties, flavour and profile of each cartridge to make the most of your experience.

TEA

The closer to nature we keep our CBD products, the more we reap their benefits. That’s why our drink is as natural as it gets. It’s just hot water and plant: the oldest method of consuming CBD. Evidence suggests we were drinking hemp tea over 10,000 years ago! Our organic hemp leaves, just like our whole-plant CBD oil, contain powerful terpenes like linalool and beta-caryophyllene, which are known to help with sleep and inflammation. Studies have also shown terpenes can produce an antidepressant-like effect. Hemp can come in different forms, however, the most effective form is in its most natural state- hemp leaf/flower tea. The leaves and flowers of the hemp plant are where CBD is created so it makes sense to use them directly, right? We simply extract it into the hot water when we make our brew. Simple!

HOW TO INCREASE BIOAVAILABILITY AND OVERALL EFFICACY

What we choose to put inside our bodies is very important and we should take much care in this! This includes what we choose, when we choose to have it and how we choose to take it. We have described above the various choices available for our CBD products and how and when you can take them. Now to show you how to get the most out of your products!

The hemp plant (Cannabis Sativa L.) contains over 500 different compounds, including cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonols, lipids, waxes, and chlorophylls. Many of these compounds have their own unique effect on the body. But when they are consumed together, the efficacy and potency of these compounds is significantly increased. ‘The entourage effect’ is when all the plant compounds work as a team to create a synergy (combined action) that otherwise would not be reached by the compounds alone. Meaning that choosing to use multiple forms of CBD at similar times will increase their overall ability and strength.

CBD exposure is also vastly increased when taken with high-fat foods; as opposed to when compared to fasting, a study showed that taking CBD with food increased the amount of CBD in the body by four times and the maximum amount recorded in the participants’ blood by 14 times.

We always suggest keeping a CBD dosage diary and maintaining a regular pattern for at least one week before altering. This way you can be incredibly intuitive to your bodies personal needs, explore what you feel and create the perfect routine. Start low, go slow!
