CBD Softgel Capsules 25mg

Description

No taste, no dropper, and the same dose every time. These CBD softgel capsules hold the same oil we bottle as a tincture, portioned at 25mg a piece so there is nothing to measure and nothing to taste. Lab results are posted by batch number, so a bottle can be matched to the sheet for the oil actually inside it.

What is in a bottle of cbd softgel capsules

A fixed amount per piece, a named shell and a named fill. The oil is the same material as the tincture rather than a different formulation sold under a capsule label.

• CBD softgel capsules: 25mg of cannabidiol per piece
• Fill: the same oil bottled as a tincture, portioned
• Shell: material stated on the label, which matters if you avoid animal products
• Splitting: not possible, so 25mg is the whole increment
• Traceability: results posted by batch number
• Price: $54 a bottle, with the price per milligram printed under it

Why cbd softgel capsules cost more per milligram

Because somebody had to encapsulate them. A capsule is a tincture with the measuring already done, and the dose being identical every time is the whole argument for the format, so it carries a small premium over an equivalent bottle of drops. That difference is printed under the price rather than buried. The capsule and softgel range states count, strength and the per milligram figure on every listing, and the method for comparing formats is in why price per milligram beats the price on the bottle.

No taste is the other half of the argument

Hemp extract is grassy and bitter and persistent, which is why so many tinctures are flavoured and why some people abandon them anyway. A softgel bypasses the problem entirely: the oil is inside a shell and the shell dissolves after you have swallowed it. CBD softgel capsules therefore need no flavouring, which keeps the ingredient list down to the oil, the carrier and the shell. The trade is that you lose the ability to take a fraction of a dose.

Shell material on cbd softgel capsules, and why it is stated

Because it decides who can take them. Softgels use bovine or fish gelatin and hold an oil suspension. Vegetarian shells are HPMC, a plant cellulose. Vegan shoppers want the second kind and the label says which it is rather than leaving it to be discovered. Shell material also affects storage: gelatin softens above about 25 degrees and softgels stick together, so a warm cupboard is a worse place than a cool one.

Testing cbd softgel capsules

Every lot is assayed by a laboratory this company has no ownership stake in: the cannabinoid profile, the delta-9 figure, pesticides, heavy metals, residual solvents and microbials. Lots coming in under their printed milligrams are withdrawn from sale and the failing certificate stays on the public results page beside the ones that passed, because a page showing only successes is marketing rather than evidence. Results are filed by batch number.

What the published literature used

Measured oral doses in the hundreds of milligrams. The approved prescription cannabidiol oral solution was trialled at 10 to 20 mg per kilogram of body weight per day, which is 700 to 1,400 mg daily for a 70 kg adult. Single dose human stress model studies used 300 to 600 mg in one sitting. Pharmacokinetic work reports a high fat meal raising blood levels several fold compared with fasting, which is relevant to an oil filled softgel as chemistry rather than as a claim. Those are descriptions of published research and its doses, and the 2018 critical review from the World Health Organization is the usual starting reference.
