Frequently asked questions

Are Karma Coast CBD products legal?

Our CBD comes from hemp flowers grown legally on organic farms in the European Union. CBD products are legal to consume throughout Europe and many other countries worldwide without a prescription. All Karma Coast products contain 0% or less than 0.2% THC.

Will Karma Coast products work for me?

Each of us is unique and have our own different wellness goals. Whilst we are not medical professionals and cannot make medical claims, the feedback we have received from a variety of our customers has been overwhelmingly positive.

As with any health condition, we encourage you to consult with your doctor or healthcare practitioner to determine the most appropriate health and wellness plan for your specific needs.

Which Karma Coast product is right for me?

The combination of delivery method and amount of CBD will produce a different effect which varies from individual to individual. The first step is to decide on the CBD delivery method (as in how you take it). In general, we recommend following guideline below:

  • Vaporisers are the fastest acting delivery method but will produce a shorter effect length. Vaporisers are great for wellness seekers who need immediate relief.
  • Tinctures provide a convenient middle ground, in terms of duration and speed of absorption. The CBD is ingested both sublingually (under your tongue) as well as through your digestive system.
  • Capsules take more time to work since they are absorbed through your digestive system which results in a subtler but more sustained effect. Our capsules can be used like a supplement to easily incorporate CBD into your daily practice. For some customers, it can take up to two weeks of daily use to experience the full benefit of CBD capsules.
  • Topicals are ideal for targeted relief of localised aches and inflammation. Our CBD Balm is very popular for muscular and joint pain as well as various skin irritations.

We know it may feel somewhat daunting when you first start adding CBD to your wellness regime and there can be a little bit of trial-and-error until you find what works best for you. Rest assured, we’re here to listen, advise and help guide you to finding that sweet spot.

How much CBD do I need?

Recommendations for individuals depend on their body weight, physical condition, and age. Therefore, the right recommendation depends on your individual need and your body’s response to CBD. Generally suggested guidelines for a healthy individual are 10-70 mg CBD daily, however, we always recommend adjusting until you find your optimal dosage level.

Can I take CBD with prescription medication?

We always recommend consulting with a medical professional when considering CBD for specific ailments and medical conditions, or when already taking prescribed medication.

Is CBD suitable for children and animals?

At Karma Coast, children can use our CBD products with parental or guardian permission. Many parents choose CBD to help support their child’s wellbeing, particularly for relaxation, focus, pain management and sleep.

As for animals, whilst we are not vets or experts in animal care, we do have plenty of happy pets using our products. Whilst our CBD range isn’t specifically branded for pets, it is actually safe to give to your pets, provided given in the correct amounts. Many pet owners use CBD to help with anxiety, joint issues and overall wellness in their animals. If you’re introducing CBD to your pet, start with a small dose and adjust based on their response. However, we are not veterinary professionals so we encourage you to speak to your vet beforehand.

Does CBD help with menopause and perimenopause?

Many of our customers use CBD to support the changes that come with menopause and perimenopause. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays a vital role in regulating mood, sleep, and hormone balance – all of which can be disrupted during this time. CBD may help with symptoms such hot flashes, mood swings, anxiety and sleep disturbances by promoting overall balance in the body.

What’s the difference between full-spectrum and broad-spectrum CBD?

  • Full-spectrum CBD contains all the natural cannabinoids, terpenes, and beneficial plant compounds, including a small, legal amount of THC (less than 0.2%). These compounds work together in what’s known as the “entourage effect,” enhancing the overall benefits of CBD.
  • Broad-spectrum CBD still includes a range of cannabinoids and terpenes but with THC completely removed.

At Karma Coast, we believe in the power of full-spectrum CBD because it offers the most complete and effective experience. That’s why 95% of our CBD products are full- spectrum.

Where can I travel with CBD?

CBD laws vary depending on the country or state you’re visiting. In the UK and much of Europe, CBD products with less than 0.2% THC are legal. However, some destinations have stricter regulations and even trace amounts of THC could cause issues. We recommend checking local laws before you travel to avoid any problems at customs.

Will CBD get me high?

No, CBD is completely non-intoxicating. Unlike THC – the psychoactive compound in cannabis – CBD does not cause a high. Our full-spectrum CBD products contain only trace amounts of THC which are well within legal limits and not enough to create any mind altering effects. Instead, CBD helps promote relaxation, balance and well-being while keeping your mind clear.

I don’t know where to start…

We know CBD can feel overwhelming at first and we’re here to help. The best starting point depends on your needs, whether it’s stress relief, better sleep, pain management or general wellness. A good approach is to start with a low dose and adjust as needed. Our CBD oils, vape pens, and capsules each offer unique benefits, and we’re always happy to guide you toward the right choice.
