3 Ways CBD Products Can Support Your Daily Life

CBD products

Last updated: June 2026
This guide is regularly updated with the latest insights on CBD.

Have you heard about the benefits of CBD but not really tried it yet? Then this blog is for you. We cover how many people use CBD in their daily life, which products to choose and what to look out for. It's often the small things that make the difference.

First, the basics

Does CBD work for everyone?

CBD doesn't work the same for everyone. Noticeable for some, subtle for others. A lot depends on finding the right CBD, the right dose and patience. Some people notice something the same day, others after a few days. Our advice: don't throw in the towel right away, start small, adjust the dose and give it time.

Will CBD make me high?

No. CBD extract contains no or only traces of THC, the compound that can cause a high. CBD is usually derived from hemp (not marijuana) to keep the THC content minimal. So it won't get you high.

Is CBD safe?

CBD is generally considered safe and well-tolerated by most people. In rare cases it can cause mild reactions, such as a dry mouth. Don't simply combine CBD with certain medications (such as blood thinners, antidepressants or blood-pressure medication); consult your doctor first, as CBD can affect how they work.

3 ways people use CBD

1. For a better night's sleep

Many people use CBD extract as part of their evening routine to unwind more easily before bed. Experiences vary, but it's one of the most-cited reasons to try CBD.

2. To relax and let go of stress

A busy life calls for moments of calm. Many people use CBD to feel calmer and more 'chill'. For extra relaxation support, we combine CBD with mulungu, a herb traditionally valued for its calming effect. Read more about mulungu.

3. For skincare

There's a reason CBD is now in many creams and oils. Many people use CBD creams for the daily care of dry or rough skin. We offer a CBD hand cream and a cream with a higher CBD content that you can apply anywhere.

Please note: CBD is a dietary supplement and not a medicine; it is not a replacement for medical treatment. If you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor first.

Frequently asked questions about CBD

Does CBD get you high?

No. CBD contains no or only traces of THC and isn't psychoactive. It's usually derived from hemp to keep the THC content minimal.

What do people use CBD for?

The most-cited reasons are relaxation, unwinding before sleep and skincare. Experiences vary from person to person; CBD is a supplement, not a medicine.

How much CBD do you take per day?

Start low, with about 10 to 15 mg a day or the dose on the packaging, and build up slowly. Give it a few days to notice what it does for you.

Can you combine CBD with medication?

Not just like that. CBD can affect how certain medications (such as blood thinners or antidepressants) work. If you take medication, consult your doctor first.

Which CBD product suits me?

For internal use, choose oil or extract; for the skin, a CBD cream. Start with a low strength and build up. Browse our CBD range.

Can you add CBD to food?

Absolutely. With a few tips it's easy. Read our blog on cooking with CBD for recipes.
