Tinctures are ingested by taking a dropper of contents and placing underneath the tongue for 30-60 seconds to be absorbed through the membrane located under the tongue – this is the fastest absorption method. Our CBD Tinctures are brought to you by Apothecary, are a Full Spectrum MCT oil based product. You can also ingest by putting in a beverage and ingesting it that way, but keep in mind this is an oil-based product and it will not fully mix with your beverage and absorption will not be as effective as it does not have the chance to absorb through the membrane underneath the tongue.
