Technically, yes. According to the existing literature, which is limited, consuming CBD oil capsules is not an efficient way to consume CBD, with only 6% - 20% of the CBD being absorbed by the body. This proportion of a substance being absorbed by the body is known as bioavailability.

However, as our CBD capsules are Raw, the predominant cannabinoid is CBDa (Cannabidioilic acid), not CBD. CBDa has been found to be 4x more bioavailable than CBD, so these studies are less relevant. 

Furthermore, the entourage effect and wide range of other compounds these capsules offer may well outweigh any limited bioavailability. Because despite what the current science says, they still seem to be highly effective.

Besides the entourage effect, full-spectrum CBD products simply have many more compounds that interact with the endocannabinoid system. For those of you who don't know, the endocannabinoid system is a vital bodily network that regulates many aspects such as mood, appetite, pain, sleep, and the immune system.

The bioavailability and efficacy of CBD capsules can be optimised by consuming them with a meal. If the meal contains a source of fat, this could boost the absorption of CBD and other cannabinoids by 4x.
