When it comes to using tinctures, you may hear the term “sublingual method” used. While this may sound like a fancy and complicated term, the reality is quite easy and beneficial. In fact, it is one of the best ways to consume hemp-based tinctures.
What is the Sublingual Method?
The sublingual method is named after several small, tear-shaped ducts found beneath the tongue. These ducts produce a minimal amount of saliva compared to other ducts. As a result, it makes an ideal entryway for the tincture to be absorbed.
According to information from the National Center for Biotechnology Information, “This route avoids first-pass metabolism and affords quick drug entry into the systemic circulation.”
The systemic circulation system is part of the intricate system of arteries that allows oxygenated blood to carry through your body to tissue capillaries. When something like a tincture is introduced to the systemic circulation system, it travels through the bloodstream using these arteries. Using the sublingual method, not only allows for faster absorption into the bloodstream, but also means you are getting more out of your tincture rather than just swallowing it.
How to Use the Sublingual Method with Hemp-Based Tinctures
The term sublingual method may be a mouthful to say, but it is actually one of the easiest ways to consume hemp-based tinctures. The first step is to select your tincture. Many individuals who use this method prefer a flavored tincture.
Once you have chosen your tincture, the next step is to measure the serving size. The suggested starting serving size for most hemp products is 10mg per serving. However, serving sizes can be adjusted once you know how a particular serving size impacts you.
Next, apply your chosen serving size beneath your tongue. The tincture should absorb through the sublingual ducts into your bloodstream as discussed above. You may wind up swallowing some of the tincture (this is okay, especially if the flavor is delicious!).
Depending on the serving size and cannabinoid content of the tincture, you may begin feeling the effects of the tincture in just a matter of minutes. It is advised to start with a smaller serving size and adjust to avoid experiencing unwanted side effects (dizziness, nausea, etc.).
