CBD Tinctures

Choosing a CBD product can be perplexing.  Many consumers are unsure of which type of CBD product to choose.  Our full spectrum CBD tinctures offer the benefit of providing not just CBD, but the whole host of cannabinoids to the entire body. 

 

The body has what is called the endocannabinoid system.  The endocannabinoid system has been shown to play a role in many bodily functions, including:

• chronic pain

• inflammation

• metabolism

• mood

• motor control

• sleep

• stress

• skin and nerve function

Check out our blog post on the endocannabinoid system for more detail (or this great scientific study)

​

The endocannabinoid system is full of CB1 receptors and CB2 receptors.  CB1 receptors are found primarily in the body's central nervous system.  CB2 receptors are found throughout the rest of your body, including the cells of your immune system.  The amazing thing about the phytocannabinoids ("phyto" just means plant) found in the hemp plant is that they interact directly with the CB1 and CB2 receptors found in your body!  This is why CBD and the other cannabinoids have such a beneficial impact on your body.

​

By using CBD tinctures, your entire endocannabinoid system is supported.  Many people find overall calm and relief using this approach.  To find out if a tincture is right for you, we recommend taking it as directed for 7 days before reviewing its effect on you.  This allows the cannabinoids from the tincture to build up in your system and reach their full potential.  If additional benefits are needed, the dose or potency can be increased until the desired results are achieved.

Why choose Upstate Alchemy tinctures?

Our CBD tinctures are produced in an FDA regulated facility using carefully chosen ingredients, including organically grown hemp.  Each product is formulated individually to assure potency and purity requirements are met.  Our flavors have been consumer tested and adjusted to provide a satisfying and memorable experience each time.

​

How can I be sure tinctures from Upstate Alchemy are safe?

Each batch of product is produced in a GMP environment (that means we meet the stringent FDA requirements for dietary supplement manufacturing).  Every batch of CBD Tinctures is tested by an independent, accredited laboratory.  The results of that testing are shown on the lab report and the product's Certificate of Analysis (COA).  You can always find copies of the COA for all of our products on our Quality page or by clicking here.  This provides proof that the products we sell meet our strict requirements, including cannabinoid potency, microbial testing, pesticide testing, and heavy metal testing.

​

Which flavor should I choose?

We offer Cinnamon, Citrus Fresh, Spearmint, and Natural flavors (we also add limited-time seasonal flavors throughout the year).  Citrus Fresh is a light, balanced citrus flavor preferred by those looking for a crisp, refreshing finish.  Cinnamon offers an experience similar to eating "Red Hots" candy (or Big Red chewing gum).  It is a favorite of customers who love bold flavors.  Spearmint offers a clean mint flavor that is a favorite of fans of all things mint (like Altoids and Ice Breakers).  Natural is, well natural!  This flavor has been described as slightly earthy and as a more authentic hemp product experience.  Are you a purist?  If so, this might be the choice for you.

​

What if I can't decide on a flavor?

You're in luck!  We have many customers who share this same conundrum.  We created the CBD Tincture Flavor Pack for just this reason.  Select any three of our flavors and we'll send trial sizes of each.  You can order one here.
