CBD oil tinctures and sprays on the market today are Hemp oil containing a percentage of CBD which is quoted in Milligrams on the label or MCT oil (Medium Chain Triglyceride) as a carrier oil with the CBD crystals dissolved within.  MCT or Hemp oil both have a viscosity of approx 30 Brookfield units. Viscosity is a measure of thickness. Whilst these products are proven to be effective; they rely on the user to hold a thick and not so nice tasting oil under the tongue in the hope that some of it absorb into the bloodstream sublingually (under the tongue) and swallow it. Therefore nearly all (95%) of the product enters the stomach and gut. Two things then happen. 

Our digestive enzymes break down the Cannabinoid profile of the oil and damage it.

The oil passes through our digestive system, and a  large proportion of it is wasted.

The Real Thing is NOT a standard CBD spray or oil. It is like no other on the market today.

It is a fine “mist”. The viscosity of the carrier solution we use is only 7 Brookfield units. Compared with MCT or Hemp oil (which is approx 30 Brookfield units) The Real Thing carrier solution is so thin! This ensures two things happen.

1. A fine mist is discharged into the mouth and under the tongue. As the mist contacts the maximum surface area within the buccal cavity (mouth) it starts to absorb immediately on contact with all surfaces because of its spread pattern and particle size.
2. When held under the tongue and/or between the gum and cheek for 30 seconds the CBD continues to absorb rapidly because the low viscosity level of the carrier solution, it can pass through any Mucous Membrane tissue effectively—therefore entering the bloodstream through the mucous membrane as quickly as possible. 

The Real Thing is designed to help you ascertain YOUR individual required dose, quickly and confidently.

Experts have recommended a method for dosing called “Uptitration”. This guideline states that you start daily dose at a level of say 40 mg/day for seven days and measure the effects and see how you feel. Then if the desired results are not achieved increase this by say 10mg and try another seven days and so on. But there becomes a challenge…

Most CBD oils today have a pipette which is not a measured amount; therefore, you cannot accurately dose at all.  Also, the oil does not absorb, so effects cannot be measured. The onset of effects are prolonged and diluted due to the wastage in your body, combined with the slow absorption rate.

We worked hard to solve that problem and designed into our specification that each pump (or spray actuation) provides an exact single dose in Milligrams of actual CBD (not oil). All of which enters the bloodstream. Therefore “Uptitration” is possible and underdosing or overusing is avoidable all of the time.
