One of the great things about CBD is that it can easily be made into tasty edibles. So while some people may rather swallow their remedy as a pill or inhale it as a vapor, you can take your CBD in the form of a tasty treat. That's not something you can say about aspirin or ibuprofen! CBD edibles are really popular, and so there are many different varieties on the market. Here are some tips to help you choose the best ones for you.

Decide whether you want a full-spectrum, broad-spectrum, or pure product.

These are the three big phrases you want to pay close attention to on CBD edible labels. If a product is labeled "full-spectrum," that means it contains all of the active compounds extracted from hemp. This includes CBG, CBE, CBN, and various other cannabinoids. In most cases, these other compounds are not as well-researched as CBD, but they likely do have therapeutic benefits. A full-spectrum product may also contain trace amounts of THC — not enough to get you high, but just the tiny amounts found naturally in hemp plants. 

A broad-spectrum CBD edible contains all of the active compounds in hemp, but not THC. The THC will have been removed. And then there are pure CBD edibles, which contain CBD but no other cannabinoids. 

Full-spectrum products are usually the most effective. If you want to stay away from THC, choose a broad-spectrum or pure CBD edible instead.

Look for an edible that you'll actually enjoy.

The point of buying a CBD edible rather than pills or an oil is that you can enjoy the edible. So, with that in mind, make sure you buy an edible that you actually like. Gummies are really popular and probably the easiest to find at most stores. But if you do not like gummies, there are hard candies, chocolate confections, and even CBD-infused honey sticks.

Pay close attention to dose.

Ask yourself how much CBD you plan on taking at once, and then look for a gummy with that dose. For instance, if you typically use 10 mg at a time, look for a 10 mg edible. This way, you won't be guessing and breaking off tiny pieces of the edible, and you won't have to eat 10 of them to get your desired dose, either. Most companies make their edibles in a wide variety of doses to suit the wide variety of customers' needs, so you shouldn't have trouble finding an edible in your dose.

CBD edibles are everywhere, but they are not all the right ones for you. Consider the tips above to buy edibles that are easy to enjoy and benefit from.
