WHAT ARE CBD GUMMIES?
CBD gummies are CBD edibles made to be chewy and sweet, just like a gumdrop but with all the benefits of CBD. Also sometimes called hemp gummies, CBD gummies are infused with extract of the hemp plant so they not only taste great but assist users with everyday stress management, workout recovery, sleep quality, and more.
We've also got CBD gummies infused with extra nutrients and herbal extracts for more targeted benefits. The great thing about gummies is that they can make anything delicious!
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CBD GUMMIES?
All our CBD gummies provide the same benefits as other ingestible CBD products, including helping manage everyday stress, recovery from exercise, getting good sleep, and general relaxation. The original CBD gummies and sour gummies both provide these benefits in different flavors. In addition, we’ve crafted specialty gummies with other beneficial ingredients.
- Apple cider vinegar gummies provide added nutrients and support digestive health without the acrid taste of apple cider vinegar. See our blog post, “What Are the Benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar Gummies?”
- Sleep-Aid gummies, as the name implies, help you get good sleep with a formula similar to our award-winning CBD PM.
- Calming gummies help you to relax, but don’t contain the sleep-triggering properties of melatonin, so you can take them at times other than bedtime.

WHAT GUMMIES ARE BEST FOR YOU?
Which CBD gummies you take depends on your goals. You may find you want more than one kind!
- For general wellness: Both our tropical and sour flavored CBD gummies provide a great foundation for a daily CBD regimen to keep your body in balance. Take one or two every morning and evening, or whatever time of day works best for you. Just try to keep the daily amount consistent.
- For extra nutrition: Our Immune Boost gummies are packed with vitamins and minerals with a special focus on immune system support. The ACV gummies also provide 100% of your daily vitamin B12 and folic acid requirements with each serving.
- For sleep: As the name implies, Sleep-Aid gummies are made specifically for this purpose! However, some people find that the original or Calming gummies are relaxing enough to help them sleep well, especially if they aren’t dealing with a disruption like jet lag or sleeplessness.
- For stress management: CBD is great for stress so all the gummies can help you with this, but Calming gummies are bolstered with extra soothing herbs for those extra busy days. Sleep is also important for stress management, so Sleep-Aid gummies can be a key part of your regimen as well. Don’t forget to take them daily!
- For digestive support: Apple cider vinegar gummies are made with powdered apple cider vinegar and other ingredients to support digestive health without the acidity of vinegar.
FAQs
DO CBD GUMMIES GET YOU HIGH?
CBD gummies cannot get you high unless they also contain a significant amount of THC. cbdMD’s Superior Broad Spectrum formula is a high quality CBD extract that is THC-free*. Any trace amount of THC that Superior Broad Spectrum CBD gummies may have is undetectable to standard instruments, so it’s safe to say you won’t feel its effects. Our full spectrum CBD gummies include a small amount of THC, but not enough to get you high if you eat the recommended serving.
ARE CBD GUMMIES LEGAL?
CBD gummies are legal, just like all hemp-derived CBD products. The 2018 Farm Bill made all CBD products federally legal when derived from hemp plants containing less than 0.3% THC by dry weight. Individual states can still decide whether to allow the sale of CBD products.
HOW MANY CBD GUMMIES SHOULD I EAT?
The number of CBD gummies you should eat depends on multiple things: your size, age, and activity level, the type of gummy you’re using, and what your desired results are. We recommend by including one gummy in your morning and evening routine for 30 days and monitoring how you feel. If you aren’t getting the desired results, add another one and repeat the process.
ARE HEMP GUMMIES GOOD FOR PAIN?
Hemp gummies are not approved for the treatment of pain unless they contain added medicines specifically for that purpose, as some of our CBD topicals do. Many people find that their calming qualities help discomfort related to stress and muscle tension. Including cannabidiol (CBD) may also help maintain good sleep cycles, which is an important part of pain relief management.
HOW LONG DO HEMP GUMMIES STAY IN YOUR SYSTEM?
How long hemp gummies stay in your system varies depending on how much you take and your personal physiology. Research indicates CBD can stay in your system for days or even weeks, which is why we advise taking CBD gummies daily for 30 days to assess their full impact.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR CBD GUMMIES TO WORK?
How long it takes for CBD gummies to work somewhat depends on your digestive system. CBD edibles go through your digestive system before any ingredients reach your bloodstream. Give them at least an hour before expecting results. The upside of this is that you’ll probably feel it for a longer time than the more fast-acting types of CBD products.
HOW TO TAKE CBD GUMMIES
Taking CBD gummies is easy and fun: just take one out and eat it! The main challenge is not binging on these tasty candies. Pace yourself so you get a regular amount of CBD every day. If you’re already taking oral CBD regularly in the form of a CBD oil tincture or CBD capsule, you can also pop a gummy or two as a bonus whenever you want some extra calm.
CAN YOU TAKE HEMP GUMMIES ON A PLANE?
Yes, you can take CBD gummies on a domestic plane. Since May 2019, the TSA has allowed CBD products on planes so long as they’re below the legal THC limit. This isn’t a problem for cbdMD’s CBD gummies because ours are THC-free*. International flights have their own rules, though; see our blog post Traveling with CBD Anywhere. Try a sleep gummy for an extra relaxed flight.
DO CBD GUMMIES SHOW UP ON A DRUG TEST?
No, CBD gummies that are THC-free should not show up on a drug test. Drug tests normally look for THC, so only the full spectrum CBD gummies could potentially cause you to fail one. cbdMD’s Superior Broad Spectrum extract is THC-free*, so you shouldn’t have to worry about the Tropical Mix gummies, Sour Mix gummies or any of the wellnessImmune Boost gummies!
How much mg of CBD is in your CBD Gummies?
Our Tropical Mix and Sour Mix CBD gummies come in strengths of 300 mg, 750, and 1500 mg of CBD in each bottle. With 30 gummies per bottle, that comes out to 10 mg, 25, mg, and 50 mg servings of CBD per gummy respectively. Currently, our full spectrum gummies come only in 750 mg concentration.
Our wellness gummies come in 60-count bottles with 750 mg per bottle, but for optimal benefits we recommend taking two gummies at once, for a serving of 25 mg of CBD.
When should I take my CBD Gummies?
Gummies are a wonderfully flexible type of CBD product to take. You can take them as a snack, a dessert, a nightcap, or any time you want. Keep in mind, though, that because the CBD has to go through your digestive system before hitting your bloodstream, you should expect to feel the results an hour or two after you eat them. So they’re good for maintaining a baseline level of CBD in your system by taking one every morning and evening, for instance.
