Ever had a rough day, done a ton of exercise or gardening, or even moved house, and thought that the solution to all your aches and pains is a nice hot bath? There really is nothing like a hot bath to soak away daily stresses, aches and pains, or even just for general relaxation and wellbeing.

What if we added another known stress, pain and general wellbeing aid to the rejuvenating power of baths? Enter bath salts. Bath salts have a long history in making a regular bath even more luxurious and therapeutic.

But what if we could do even better than the therapeutic benefits of bathing and bath salts by adding in CBD?

In this blog, we’ll explore Down To Earth’s two types of bath salts, their benefits and their practical applications to elevate your self-care routine.

What Are CBD Bath Salts?

CBD bath salts are a fusion of traditional bath salts and cannabidiol (CBD), a non-intoxicating compound derived from the cannabis plant. These salts often include a blend of Epsom salt and/or Himalayan/sea salt, essential oils and CBD extract, creating an opulent concoction designed to provide a spa-like experience from the comfort of your own home.

Down To Earth’s CBD Bath Salts

At Down to Earth, we offer two sumptuous and luscious bath salts.

With full-spectrum CBD, Himalayan and Dead Sea salt, zesty lemongrass, exotic cedarwood and calming neroli, our Sunrise CBD Bath Salt helps you soak any tension and aches away while invigorating and stimulating your senses, leaving you ready to seize the day ahead.

After a long day, our Sunset CBD Bath Salt will leave you in nighttime nirvana. With full-spectrum CBD, Dead Sea salt, Epsom salts, calming lavender, soothing clove and relaxing neroli, your nighttime soak will leave you feeling soothed and calm, ready for a refreshing night’s sleep.

How Do CBD Bath Salts Work?

Adding CBD to bath salts injects even more therapeutic benefits into bathing. CBD interacts with the endocannabinoid system (ECS), influencing various physiological processes such as mood, stress response and inflammation.

When added to bath water, CBD bath salts dissolve, releasing their beneficial components into the water. As you soak in the bath, your skin absorbs these, aiding in muscle relaxation, relief from aches and pains, stress reduction and skin nourishment.

Benefits Of Using Bath Salts

Muscle Relaxation

Bath salts help relax muscles and reduce tension. This can be particularly beneficial after a strenuous workout, after a stressful day at the office or for relief from conditions such as arthritis.

Stress Reduction

CBD’s potential to modulate stress response, combined with the calming effects of a warm bath, creates an environment conducive to stress relief. The sensory experience of soaking in CBD bath salts can promote relaxation and tranquillity.

Skin Nourishment

Himalayan salt, with its unique mineral composition, may contribute to skin hydration and detoxification. The addition of essential oils in Down To Earth’s CBD bath salts further enhances skin nourishment, leaving it feeling soft and revitalised.

Improved Sleep

The relaxation induced by CBD bath salts may support better sleep quality. A calming bath before bedtime can be a valuable part of a sleep hygiene routine. Add in the known de-stressing and sleep-enhancing benefits of CBD and you have a potent recipe for a good night’s shut eye.

How To Use Bath Salts

Incorporating CBD bath salts into your self-care routine is easy. Follow these steps for an optimal experience:

1. Fill your tub: start by running a warm bath. The temperature should be comfortable for soaking and relaxing.
2. Add Down To Earth’s CBD bath salts: once the tub is filled, add the recommended amount of CBD bath salts.
3. Soak and relax: gently plunge yourself into the bath and allow the CBD bath salts to dissolve.
4. Duration: aim for a bath of at least 15–30 minutes to experience the full benefits. But remember, longer soaks may lead to dehydration, so be sure you drink plenty of water, or even have a herbal tea with Down To Earth’s CBeeD honey to really get into the relaxation zone!
5. Rinse off: after soaking, rinse off in a lukewarm shower to remove any residual salts. Pat your skin dry, then continue enjoying feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.

Precautions While Using CBD Bath Salts

While CBD bath salts offer numerous benefits, it’s important to consider some precautions:

1. Individual sensitivity: individuals may react differently to CBD, so it’s advisable to perform a patch test before using CBD bath salts extensively.
2. Product quality: choose high-quality CBD bath salts from reputable sources to ensure purity and effectiveness. At Down To Earth, we only offer premium CBD products using CBD extracted from cannabis grown in the USA and we publish our independent, third-party lab reports on our website.
3. Consultation: if you have any health conditions or take medication, consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating warm or hot baths, or CBD products, into your routine.

By adding CBD bath salts to your routine, you can turbocharge the relaxing and rejuvenating effects of bathing and bath salts. What are you waiting for? Give the gift of wellness to yourself or to a loved one with one of Down To Earth’s luxurious CBD bath salts.

At Down To Earth we’re often asked about the best way to consume CBD. It’s not a surprise, because consumers face many choices, each offering different advantages that set them apart from other CBD products.

Today, we’ll look at two popular CBD options: CBD oils and capsules. We’ll discuss their potential benefits, how they work, and why we believe CBD oils are the superior choice when you’re considering adding CBD products to your wellbeing routine.

Understanding CBD Oils And Capsules

CBD oils and capsules are both derived from cannabidiol, a substance found in the cannabis plant. CBD is believed to have many potential health and wellbeing benefits, such as helping alleviate the impacts of chronic pain, anxiety and depression, sleep disorders, arthritis and more.

CBD oils and CBD capsules both contain the same CBD oil. But the two products differ significantly in their form, how they’re consumed and how the body absorbs them.

CBD oils are liquid extracts suspended in carrier oils such as hemp seed oil or MCT oil (medium-chain triglycerides, such as coconut oil), and are typically administered “sublingually” under the tongue, where they’re absorbed into the bloodstream.

Capsules, on the other hand, are typically made of CBD oil that’s encapsulated in an animal-based gelatin or a plant-based casing. They’re ingested like any other pill and absorbed by the stomach.

Bioavailability And Its Relationship To CBD Absorption

What do we mean when we discuss the concept of bioavailability and how it relates to CBD absorption?

Bioavailability influences the effectiveness of CBD products. It refers to the proportion of CBD that enters the bloodstream and produces the desired effects.

CBD oils generally have higher bioavailability compared to capsules. When the oil is administered sublingually, membranes under the tongue allow for direct absorption into the bloodstream.

Capsules pass through the digestive tract and are partly metabolised in the liver, where some CBD may be lost and bioavailability slightly reduced.

Ease Of Dosing And Customisation

One notable advantage of CBD oils is the ease of customising the dose. Oils often come with graduated droppers, allowing users to precisely measure their desired dosage. This level of control is particularly beneficial for individuals seeking specific CBD concentrations or adjusting their dosage based on their unique needs.

Capsules can be convenient for people on the go, such as those who travel frequently or are highly active. They can be taken in a single hit alongside other vitamin supplements, and packed into bags without risk of spilling. But, they offer less flexibility in customising the dose compared to oils, because capsules come in pre-measured doses.

A word of caution: some countries outside of Australia may have restrictions or laws preventing use of CBD products. Always check the laws of any international destination you’re heading to before you pack CBD products, no matter what form you use.

Quicker Onset Of Effects With CBD Oils

Now let’s talk about how oils provide a quicker onset of effects compared to capsules.

For those seeking rapid relief, the onset of effects is a crucial consideration. CBD oils typically offer a quicker onset compared to capsules. When administered sublingually, CBD enters the bloodstream more rapidly, with effects often felt in 20–30 minutes. This distinction is particularly relevant for those dealing with acute symptoms or looking for immediate relief.

In contrast, capsules must be digested before the CBD is absorbed. This means that the full effects may take up to two hours to be felt, but can have a more drawn-out effect.

Versatility In Usage

CBD oils also boast versatility in terms of administration. Besides sublingual application, CBD oils can be mixed into beverages or food, making them a great choice for those who prefer a different method of intake.

Capsules, while convenient and discreet, may lack this versatility.

Deciding What’s Best For You

We can also offer guidance on how to make an informed choice when selecting CBD oils. After all, we’re experts at Down To Earth!

When selecting between CBD oils and capsules, consider your individual preferences, lifestyle and the desired effects you want to experience. You could experiment with product options to discover the method that aligns best with your needs.

Always buy from reputable manufacturers who test their products independently with third party laboratories. We publish our lab reports right here so you can be assured that every Down To Earth product is of the highest quality and safe for your consumption.

We offer a range of premium CBD oils Australia-wide. Let’s look at three products:

Full Defence 3000 (FD3000)

Our Full Defence 3000 is what’s known as a “full-spectrum” CBD oil. It contains CBD, along with the full spectrum of beneficial compounds from the cannabis plant, such as terpenes, flavonoids and other cannabinoids including tetrahydrocannabinol or THC.

These compounds produce the “entourage effect” of working together in one beneficial hit. And, while THC is present, there’s only trace amounts – enough to facilitate the entourage effect but not cause the “high” feelings or cognitive impairment usually associated with THC.

Broad Spectrum 3000 (BS3000)

Our Broad Spectrum 3000 works similarly to FD3000. It contains the same beneficial compounds, minus the THC, so you’ll experience the entourage effect but without any risk of THC appearing in your system. It’s popular with customers who operate vehicles and machinery, or who may be drug tested on the job.

Isolate 2000 (ISO2000)

Finally, our Isolate 2000 has nothing but 2000mg of pure CBD and no other cannabis plant compounds. Our most popular product is a great choice for anyone looking for a strong, pure CBD oil.

 Your Choice

Choosing between oils and capsules is about personal preference and desired effects. While both options offer therapeutic benefits, we feel the superiority of CBD oils is evident in their higher bioavailability, ease of dosing, quicker onset of effects, and versatility.

As you consider your next CBD purchase, we hope you’re armed with a deeper understanding so you can make an informed choice that aligns with your wellness goals and lifestyle.

In recent years, CBD oil has surged in popularity in Australia, marking a transformative shift in the health and wellness landscape. What was once considered a niche product has now become a truly mainstream wellness staple for many Australians.

In this blog, we’ll take a look at the growth of CBD oil use in Australia, explore its myriad benefits and applications, discuss the factors driving its popularity and address some of the concerns people have with CBD.

Growth Of CBD Oil Use In Australia

CBD’s growth can be attributed to several key factors such as legalisation of CBD in Australia, as well as legalisation of medical cannabis in some Australian states and territories.

There’s also increased awareness of CBD and its potential benefits in treating or alleviating symptoms for certain conditions.

And then there’s the research. While more research into CBD is needed, scientific studies and clinical trials have discovered promising results, thereby fostering trust and confidence in CBD as a reputable health and wellness product.

Benefits And Applications Of CBD Oil

The versatility of CBD oil is a key driver of its adoption in Australia, with consumers using CBD to help manage a range of conditions such as chronic pain, anxiety, depression and stress, sleep disorders such as insomnia, skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, and arthritis and other inflammatory conditions.

Factors Driving Popularity

Several factors are fueling the growing popularity of CBD oil in Australia. Word of mouth is probably the most significant and, if you think about it, it makes sense – you’re more likely to trust the opinion of a relative or friend over anything else and, as CBD explodes in popularity, you probably know at least one person who uses CBD.

There’s also the ever-evolving retail landscape. Since regulation of CBD has relaxed, CBD products are not only more visible in store and online, they’re also widely available.

Challenges And Concerns About CBD

Despite its rise in popularity, CBD oil in Australia is not without its challenges and concerns. These include:

• Regulatory uncertainty: The regulatory environment surrounding CBD is still evolving. This creates uncertainty for both consumers and businesses.
• Quality control: Ensuring the quality and safety of CBD products remains a concern. Consumers must be vigilant in choosing reputable brands like Down To Earth.
• Dosage and effects: Determining the right dosage for individual needs can be challenging, and the effects of CBD can vary from person to person.
• Potential side effects: While generally well-tolerated, CBD may cause side effects such as dry mouth, dizziness and changes in appetite in some individuals.

Brand Services And Offerings

In the midst of the CBD boom in Australia, it’s crucial to identify reputable brands that offer safe and high-quality products. Reputable brands should also have their products independently tested by third party laboratories, with these reports available to consumers.

At Down To Earth, we only sell premium CBD products, with all our CBD derived from cannabis plants grown and extracted in the USA. And because we’re committed to transparency, our independent lab reports are available on our website.

And then there’s our reviews. We have almost 5,000 independently verified reviews, with a huge 4.73/5 product rating.

Regardless of how you use CBD, your product will come in either a full-spectrum CBD, broad-spectrum CBD or CBD isolate. Let’s take a look at some of our most popular CBD oils.

Down To Earth’s CBD Products

Full Defence 3000 (FD3000)

Our Full Defence 3000 is a full-spectrum CBD oil containing CBD as well as the entire spectrum of beneficial compounds found in the cannabis plant, such as terpenes, flavonoids and other cannabinoids. Full-spectrum CBD products produce what’s known as the “Entourage Effect”, where all the beneficial compounds found in the cannabis plant work together to provide the full benefits, including THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is responsible for the “high” or psychoactive effects commonly associated with cannabis. However, all our full-spectrum CBD products contain only trace amounts of THC – enough to experience the Entourage Effect, but not enough to cause any “high” feelings or cognitive impairment.

CBD’s Future Outlook

CBD use is growing in Australia and around the world. As regulations continue to evolve and more research emerges showing CBD’s potential benefits, the CBD market will likely see increased diversification of CBD products, catering to a broader range of health and wellness needs.

But as the demand for CBD grows and new CBD brands enter the market, it’s critical that you as a consumer can make an informed choice about which brands are safe, reputable and provide the highest quality product – that’s CBD products from Down To Earth.

So what’re you waiting for? Do yourself a favour and unlock the key to wellness today with the best CBD oil Australia has to offer at Down To Earth.

CBD oil is a headline-grabber. And, with its potential to address many health concerns and its natural origins, it’s no wonder researchers are exploring the impact of CBD oil for heart or cardiovascular wellness. After all, the heart is the body’s engine room – we have to look after it!

Today we’ll look at how CBD oil may contribute to heart health and reduce heart disease risk factors.

CBD Oil For Promoting Heart Wellness

When it comes to heart health, it’s important to stress that CBD research is in its early days – but there’s plenty of cause for hope that CBD oil may have positive benefits for common risk factors for heart disease, including hypertension, inflammation, oxidative stress, and metabolic syndrome.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is a natural compound extracted from hemp or cannabis plants. It contains a variety of chemical substances known as cannabinoids and other compounds, each with their own potential benefits.

CBD oil’s versatility as a wellbeing supplement is well-documented. For some users it may provide pain relief, manage stress and anxiety, stabilise moods, promote healthy sleep patterns, regulate inflammation, provide neuroprotective properties or support overall wellbeing. It may even support pet health. Taken in oil form as drops under the tongue also helps CBD enter the bloodstream faster, so you may experience its effects sooner than other forms of CBD.

How does CBD oil work? Our body’s endocannabinoid system helps regulate a bunch of cognitive and physiological processes such as mood, sleep, appetite, memory and fertility. CBD oil targets receptors within this network to activate them and enhance wellbeing. But with no THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), or THC levels below 0.3%, CBD oil is also non-intoxicating and won’t make you high or cause addiction.

5 Common Risk Factors For Heart Disease – And How CBD Oil May Help Reduce Them

Let’s look at five common risk factors for heart disease, and how CBD oil may help reduce them.

1. CBD Oil And Blood Pressure Regulation And Stroke

Remember that expression “you make my blood boil”? It doesn’t sound fun – and it isn’t. But that’s sort of what happens when someone experiences hypertension, or high blood pressure, which puts strain on the heart and blood vessels, increasing the risk of heart attack and stroke.

Some studies suggest CBD oil may positively impact blood pressure regulation, and potentially protect some stroke victims from brain damage. By interacting with the endocannabinoid system, CBD may lead to vasodilation – relaxation and expansion of blood vessels – to help lower blood pressure.

A product like our Broad Spectrum 3000 (BS3000) is a high-potency option for those wanting the potential benefits of CBD in promoting cardiovascular wellness.

2. CBD Oil And Inflammation

Picture a blocked pipe preventing water from flowing: chronic inflammation can damage blood vessels and contribute to the buildup of arterial plaque (nasties like cholesterols and fats) on the walls of our arteries.

CBD has potential anti-inflammatory properties. Some research suggests CBD interacts with our immune cells and receptors to regulate inflammation and counteract this process.

3. Oxidative Stress Versus CBD’s Antioxidant Properties

Oxidative stress happens when there’s an imbalance between the production of free radicals – unstable atoms that contribute to illness and ageing – and our body’s ability to neutralise them. This stress may damage cells, including those in the cardiovascular system.

CBD oil’s fantastic antioxidant properties may help combat oxidative stress by neutralising free radicals and reducing cellular damage.

4. CBD Oil’s Impact On Metabolic Health

Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions – high blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess abdominal fat and abnormal cholesterol levels – that increase the risk of heart disease.

Some studies suggest CBD may help regulate levels of insulin (a hormone that regulates blood glucose), improve profiles of lipids (fatty compounds in blood), and support healthy weight management.

Our Broad Spectrum 1000 (BS1000) is a moderate potency option for anyone interested in exploring the potential impact of CBD on metabolic syndrome.

5. Stress And Anxiety Management With CBD

We all juggle various sources of stress and anxiety, from the cost of living to work and family pressures. Elevated stress levels take a toll on mental and cardiovascular health and contribute to hypertension and inflammation.

By interacting with the brain receptors that regulate mood and stress response, CBD oil may help alleviate stress and promote a sense of calm and relaxation.

Final Thoughts

At Down To Earth we’re strong advocates of the power of scientific research to find new ways to improve health and wellbeing. After all, our bodies are our most vital assets!

While research on CBD oil’s impact on cardiovascular wellness is evolving, the potential benefits are intriguing. From blood pressure regulation to inflammation reduction to stress management, CBD oil’s diverse properties could make it a game-changer in the battle against heart disease.

If you’re thinking about adding CBD oil to your wellness routine, choose products from reputable brands that are transparent about their sourcing and manufacturing processes. Products like Down To Earth’s Broad Spectrum 3000 and Broad Spectrum 1000 offer varying levels of potency so you can pick a product that best suits your needs.

CBD oil is also not a replacement for medical advice or treatment. If you have existing heart conditions or concerns, consult a healthcare professional before integrating CBD into your regimen. But with careful consideration and expert guidance, CBD oil may become a valuable ally in your journey towards a healthier heart and a more vibrant life.

Cannabidiol (CBD) oil continues to surge in popularity worldwide, including in Australia. The hype is for good reason: CBD oils have been shown to have many potential health, wellbeing and lifestyle benefits.

Among the various types of CBD oil available, full spectrum CBD oil has gained attention for its potential holistic benefits.

In our comprehensive guide, we’ll help answer some of your common questions: What is full spectrum CBD oil? How may it enhance your wellbeing? And when you’re contemplating the options for full spectrum CBD oil Australia has to offer, how do you know which products to choose?

Understanding Full Spectrum CBD Oil

Choosing a CBD oil can be a bit overwhelming! So we’ll start by explaining what “full spectrum” actually means.

There are three main types of CBD oils available: full spectrum; broad spectrum; and isolate.

Full spectrum CBD oil comes from the hemp plant and contains a rich blend of beneficial chemical components including cannabinoids, terpenes and fatty acids. Full spectrum CBD oils usually contain a small amount of the naturally occurring THC (or tetrahydrocannabinol), but for non-prescription options in Australia this is less than the legal limit of <0.3% and non-psychoactive, meaning you won’t get the “high” that THC is known for.

Broad spectrum oil has been further refined to remove all THC, while CBD isolate is the most refined option, containing pure CBD.

As the name suggests, full spectrum oils offer a broader spectrum of wellness-enhancing components than isolate oils. We call this the “entourage effect”: the combined compounds work together to potentially magnify the oil’s therapeutic effects.

Health Benefits And Applications

The potential health benefits of full spectrum CBD oil is wide-ranging. While research is still evolving, many users report positive outcomes in pain management, stress and anxiety reduction, mood stabilisation, improved sleep quality and more.

Cannabinoids

Cannabidiol (CBD) is the most well-known cannabinoid. CBD interacts with our body’s endocannabinoid system – a regulatory network responsible for maintaining equilibrium (homeostasis) in various bodily functions. By nurturing this system, CBD may contribute to easing discomfort and helping with relaxation.

Cannabinol (CBN) is another cannabinoid with potential calming effects, often used to aid sleep-related concerns.

Terpenes

Aromatic compounds called terpenes contribute to the distinctive scent and potential benefits of full spectrum CBD oil. Terpenes like linalool and limonene are believed to offer stress relief and improved mood.

Buying And Using Full Spectrum CBD Oil

It’s easy to buy full spectrum CBD oil in Australia online and you don’t need a prescription to buy it via our website.

We always recommend choosing quality products from reputable companies like Down To Earth that provide third-party lab testing results. These results mean you’ll be assured of consistent CBD products that contain what they say on the label.

At Down to Earth we offer several full spectrum CBD oil options to suit various needs. Our products are made from non-GMO, organic, USA-grown hemp oil extracted under good manufacturing practice (GMP) certification.

Our CBD oils also maintain naturally present compounds alongside cannabinoids such as amino acids, vitamins, carbohydrates, fatty acids, trace minerals, beta-carotene, chlorophyll, flavonoids, ketones and terpenes.

Our customers report a range of positive outcomes, from reduced stress and improved sleep to better management of chronic discomfort and pain. And while individual user experiences and testimonials vary, these stories highlight the potential positive impacts of full spectrum CBD oil.

Full Defence 1000 (FD1000):

Just dipping your toe into the world of CBD? Our FD1000 with 1000mg of full spectrum CBD is a good place to start. Its lower potency lets you gauge your body’s response before considering higher concentrations. It’s popular for improving mental health and sleep, aiding digestion, pain relief and general wellbeing.

Customer Louise writes on our product review page: “My mum in law tells me that she so enjoys using the FD1000 as it helps her destress, takes the muscle pain away from her arms and generally assists her in a holistic manner”.

Cannabidiol, commonly known as CBD, has experienced a surge in popularity in recent years due to its potential health benefits and non-psychoactive nature. Initially known for its traditional forms like CBD oil and capsules, CBD has now expanded into various modern and trendy consumption methods.

This blog will explore modern ways CBD can improve your life, including the latest CBD trends, innovative consumption methods, CBD edibles and beverages, and an overview of conditions that CBD may treat or alleviate.

How Does CBD Work In The Body?

Before we jump into how CBD can improve your life and the latest modern CBD trends, it’s necessary to understand the types of CBD available.

Broad-Spectrum CBD

Broad-spectrum CBD oil contains a variety of cannabinoids and terpenes found in the hemp plant, except for THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol), the compound that causes the psychoactive or “high” effects. Broad-spectrum CBD contains a range of cannabinoids that work together to produce an entourage effect, which is where all the compounds that make up the cannabis plant work together in a synergistic way to provide relief. Broad-spectrum CBD oil, like our Broad Spectrum 1000 (BS1000), can be a great option for people who can’t have any THC in their system but want to experience the full benefits of the entourage effect.

Full-Spectrum CBD

Full-spectrum CBD oil contains all of the cannabinoids, terpenes and flavonoids found in the hemp plant, including trace amounts of THC. While THC is known for its psychoactive or “high” effects, the amount present in full-spectrum CBD oil is too low to produce any high effects. Full-spectrum CBD oils, like our mid-strength Full Defence 2000 (FD2000) also produce the entourage effect.

CBD Isolate

CBD isolate oil is pure CBD, isolated from all other compounds found in the hemp plant. While this type of CBD oil does not contain any other cannabinoids or terpenes. CBD isolate oil, like our ISO 2000 CBD isolate, is often preferred by those who are sensitive to other cannabinoids or terpenes found in full-spectrum or broad-spectrum CBD oils.
