What are CBD Edibles?

CBD edibles are food products infused with cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychoactive compound found in the hemp plant. They come in various forms, such as gummies, chocolates, cookies, and beverages.

CBD edibles offer a convenient and enjoyable way to consume CBD, with effects typically lasting longer than other consumption methods due to the gradual digestion process. They also allow for precise dosing, as each edible contains a specific amount of CBD.

How does CBD oil work?

CBD oil interacts with the endocannabinoid system (ECS) in the human body. The ECS plays a crucial role in maintaining balance and regulating various bodily functions.

CBD binds to the cannabinoid receptors within the ECS, stimulating and modulating their activity. This interaction is claimed to promote homeostasis, reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and support overall well-being. CBD oil's effects on the ECS are claimed to have a positive impact on sleep, mood, appetite, immune function, and more.

By enhancing the body's natural regulatory system, CBD oil is said to offer potential therapeutic benefits for various health conditions.

Yes, CBD oil is legal in Japan if produced and imported properly. CBD oil in Japan is subject to strict regulation regarding how it is made , what it contains and how it is imported. According to current laws, CBD products must only be produced from the legal parts of the hemp plant. Most CBD products sold overseas are made from the whole plant. Unlike in other countries where a small amount of THC is allowed (often 0.2% or 0.3%), Japan strictly prohibits THC and products sold properly in Japan must be third party tested to provide evidence of 0.00% THC. It is highly risky to bring CBD from overseas even if they may claim that they do not contain THC. We are a pioneer in the Japanese industry and have been legally offering CBD products since 2016.
Our CBD is legally imported, produced and sold in Japan. You can carry your CBD anywhere in Japan.
In general there are three types of CBD available:
  1. Broad Spectrum CBD Oil - This is the oil extracted from the hemp plant and prepared so that it does not contain any detectable THC (the substance in marijuana that can cause a euphoric effect). It does contain other nutritional cannibinoids and terpenes (useful substances in hemp and other botanicals). Broad Spectrum CBD oil, when properly prepared and imported, is legal in Japan. HealthyTOKYO uses broad spectrum CBD oil in all of our branded tinctures.
  2. CBD Isolate - This is an extraction of pure CBD powder processed from CBD oil. It does not contain any of the other nutritional cannibinoids or terpenes (useful substances in hemp and other botanicals) from the hemp plant. it also does not contain any detectable THC (the substance in marijuana that can cause a euphoric effect). CBD Isolate, when properly prepared and imported, is legal in Japan.  Some professional athletes prefer CBD isolate over broad spectrum products.
  3. Full Spectrum Oil - This is the oil directly pressed from the hemp plant and contains all of the cannabinoids in the original hemp plant. This oil is not legal in Japan as it does contain various levels of THC, the substance in marijuana that can cause a euphoric effect.
We use only CO2 extracted CBD oil in our HealthyTOKYO tinctures to provide all of the useful cannabinoids and terpenes not found in CBD isolates. CBD isolate is used in some cosmetic products and other products available on our website.

Many of our customers consider the following when choosing a CBD product:
  1. Do I want to take CBD oil, edible, topical or vape? - Consider whether you want an oil for sublingual, an edible, a topical facial mask, cream or a vape formulation. CBD oils can generally be used more flexibly and volume easily adjusted versus edibles. Topical formulation choice depends on personal preference. Remember that CBD oils are absorbed quickly sublingually so a higher amount enters the bloodstream faster than if consuming edibles (gummies, cookies etc.). 
  2. Do I want to a Broad Spectrum CBD product or a CBD Isolate? If interested see “What Types of CBD exist?” information below.
  3. How much CBD is in each product? - Consider the total number of milligrams of CBD in each product. Larger volume and higher concentration products tend to offer better value per mg of CBD.
  4. What percentage of CBD do I want? - Consider a higher percentage formulation if you want to use less volume each time. Higher concentration products are also easier to carry as they are generally smaller. Higher concentration and larger volume products tend to offer better value per mg of CBD.
  5. How much do I want to spend? - Consider your overall budget. Higher concentration and larger volume products tend to offer better value per mg of CBD.
There are generally four ways to use CBD:
  1. Sublingually: Oils can be taken sublingually. (under your tongue). To take sublingually, put desired amount in your mouth and hold under your tongue for 30 seconds and swallow. Taking CBD sublingual is a fast way to have it enter your blood stream.
  2. Eat: You can add CBD oil to food or drink. You can also consume CBD gummies, capsules and other food items containing CBD. When you eat CBD it enters your stomach first and after some digestion then your blood stream. It generally takes longer to enter your blood stream than when taking sublingually.
  3. Topical Application: Apply CBD oil or creams, facial masks or other topical formulations to directly to your skin.
  4. Vape: there are specific formulations created for vaping. Vaping requires a vape machine which heats the vape liquid and vaporizes it for inhaling into the lungs. HealthyTOKYO recommends that you do not use vape formulations unless you are already a smoker.
It really depends on the individual. Most of our customers take 10mg of CBD two to three times per day. We recommend to start with an amount equal to or below 10mg and increase or decrease amount depending on your preference and experience. We hear from many customers with stress issues that they take between 10mg - 30mg once or twice a day. Other customers with sleep issues tell us that they generally take 20mg to 50mg before bedtime.
It is best to store in a cool dry place. Refrigeration will reduce oxidization which can occur over time. Chilling your CBD oil will preserve it longer, but it may become thicker when cool. Please remove from the refrigerator at least a few minutes before consuming.
