According to producers of water-soluble CBD oil, full spectrum hemp-derived CBD oil in its natural state is unable to pass through the gut lining and enter the bloodstream without first being broken down by enzymes and passed along to the liver for processing. They claim that by transforming CBD oil to water-soluble oil, it is more easily absorbed into the bloodstream providing faster, more effective relief.
To create water-soluble CBD, it must be re-engineered in a laboratory. This process is patented, so the exact details of the process are not shared. CBD oil is converted to a powder, which transforms the oil into micro-sized pieces. The small pieces need to be encapsulated with non-toxic materials in order to stay stable. Curcumin is added to CBD oil molecules to make them more water-soluble. Referring to the oil as water-soluble is more of a marketing term and is a bit misleading, as the compounds in hemp-derived CBD oil cannot dissolve.
The result of this process is an off-white, ‘water-soluble,’ micro-encapsulated, full-spectrum, CBD hemp extract that the producers claim increases the bioavailability of the oil, making it more easily absorbed into the bloodstream.
This is a fairly new trend and to date, there is no empirical evidence of the efficacy of water-soluble CBD oil in dogs and cats; no proof of faster absorption or higher levels of CBD in the body; and raises the question, does faster absorption change the length of efficacy in the body? Additionally, there are no current studies about the proper dosing of water-soluble CBD.
It is important to point out that the only two studies proving the efficacy of CBD for dogs (Colorado State University and Cornell University) were conducted using natural CBD, not water-soluble.
