THC is the psychoactive ingredient that produces a high, where as CBD does not. CBD has grown in use and popularity due to the growing reserach and evidence that shows it can be used to improve overall health and wellbeing. The usual CBD formulation is oil, but it is also available as an extract, a vaporised liquid, capsule and gummies. Food, drinks and beauty products are among the many CBD-infused products on the market too.
While hemp and marijuana are often referred to as “strains” of Cannabis, they do not qualify as either. In fact, they cannot technically be considered as plants at all; Hemp and marijuana are simply broad classifications of Cannabis based on their cannabinoid content.
“Hemp” is a term used to classify strains that contain 0.2% or less THC content in Europe (0.3% limit in the US), and is not classified as a controlled substance.
“Marijuana” is a term used to classify strains that contain more than 0.2% THC (0.3% in the US).
Both hemp and marijuana can produce high amounts of CBD; however, the THC is the defining threshold for regulatory purposes. All products sold by Savage Cabbage are derived from legal hemp varieties of cannabis and contain no more than 0.2% THC.
According to a report from the World Health Organization, “In humans, CBD exhibits no effects indicative of any abuse or dependence potential…. To date, there is no evidence of public health related problems associated with the use of pure CBD.”
While sub-lingual products (those that dissolve under the tongue) are the most popular, there are now many different products available that could work for you depending on your lifestyle and needs.

When using CBD oils, avoid touching your mouth with the dropper to prevent any contamination and preserve the quality of the oil.
For maximum absorption, hold it under your tongue for 30 seconds to a few minutes before swallowing.
To determine how many drops to take, follow the recommended dose provided by the manufacturer or start with small dose to try first. Over time, you can increase the dose and frequency until you achieve your desired results.
Appropriate doses for CBD can vary greatly depending on many individual factors, such as:
The immediate effects of CBD oil usually take effect within 30 to 90 minutes, but long-term results may take several weeks to achieve.
You can also mix CBD oil into drinks and food, but this may affect absorption.
As humans, we are all unique, the method of finding your sweet spot is a personal journey. For support in guiding you, either speak to our team or use the Guide below to help establish your oil dosing levels.
Full Spectrum CBD are the closest to the plant in its natural form, and include a wide range of cannabinoids from the hemp plant. It also contains a variety of essential vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, protein, chlorophyll, terpenes and flavonoids as well as THC.
Broad-spectrum CBD is full-spectrum CBD without any THC (Tetrahydocannabinoid). It offers some of the entourage benefits associated with full-spectrum CBD, but the lack of THC means that this entourage effect is limited. This is an ideal option for those who are drug tested regularly and cannot consume even a small amount of THC.
CBD isolate contains only CBD. All the plant matter contained in the hemp plant, including oils, waxes, chlorophyll, and more are removed, offering a finished product that’s CBD and nothing more. While these products offer some benefits of CBD, there is no Entourage Effect.
CBD topicals DO not enter the bloodstream to produce full body effects. Instead, they work locally through your epidermis and pores, digging just deep enough for CBD and other beneficial compounds to work its magic.
CBD topicals are often combined with other helpful ingredients to maximise the benefit. For example, Charlotte’s Web CBD roll-ons contain aromatherapy blends of either peppermint or lavender oils. The cooling gel on the other hand contains arnica to help faster muscle recovery.
