FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Clearer answers to common questions about CBD,and the Mojo range.
What is CBD?
CBD, short for cannabidiol, is a naturally occurring compound found in hemp. It is one of many cannabinoids found in the plant and is non-intoxicating, so it should not be confused with THC.
Will CBD get me high?
No. CBD itself is non-intoxicating and does not create the high associated with THC. Responsible CBD products should be formulated and tested to remain within UK requirements for controlled cannabinoids.
Is CBD legal in the UK?
CBD may be sold in the UK when products meet the relevant legal and regulatory expectations, including food safety rules, responsible presentation, and limits for controlled cannabinoids. For consumer CBD products, UK guidance focuses on no more than 1mg of each controlled cannabinoid per container.
What is the difference between CBD and THC?
CBD and THC are both cannabinoids found in cannabis plants, but they are not the same. THC is associated with intoxicating effects and is controlled under UK law. CBD is non-intoxicating, although finished products must still be carefully controlled and tested.
What are cannabinoids?
Cannabinoids are naturally occurring compounds found in hemp and cannabis plants. CBD is one of the best-known cannabinoids. A product may also contain other plant compounds depending on whether it is full spectrum, broad spectrum, or isolate-based.
What is the endocannabinoid system?
The endocannabinoid system, often called the ECS, is a natural signalling system in the body. CBD education often discusses the ECS because cannabinoids can interact with this system, but our products are not presented as medicines or treatments.
Are Mojo Apothecary products medical treatments?
No. Mojo Apothecary products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Nothing on this website should be read as medical advice. If you have a medical condition or specific health concern, please speak with a qualified healthcare professional.
How much CBD should I take?
CBD response varies from person to person. The Food Standards Agency advises healthy adults not to consume more than 10mg of CBD per day from food products. Start low, follow the product information, and do not exceed the recommended daily amount.
Can I take CBD every day?
Many people choose to make CBD part of a daily routine, but it should be used responsibly and within the recommended daily amount. Consistency matters more than taking a large amount. If you are unsure whether CBD is suitable for you, seek professional advice first.
Can I take CBD with medication?
CBD may interact with some medicines. If you take prescription medication, are under medical supervision, or have any health concerns, consult a doctor or pharmacist before using CBD.
Can I use CBD if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
CBD is not recommended for people who are pregnant, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding unless specifically advised by a qualified healthcare professional.
Is CBD suitable for children?
No. Mojo Apothecary CBD products are intended for adults only and should be kept out of reach of children.
How do I use CBD oil?
CBD oil is commonly placed under the tongue, held briefly, and then swallowed. Always follow the product label and use the serving guidance provided with the specific product.
How do I use CBD gummies?
CBD gummies are eaten like a regular gummy. Mojo Apothecary CBD Gummies contain 10mg of CBD per gummy, so one gummy represents the current FSA daily advice for healthy adults.
How do I use the CBD Beverage Booster?
The CBD Beverage Booster is designed to be added to a drink as part of a simple daily ritual. Each pump provides 10mg of CBD, making it easy to measure one daily serving. Stir or mix well before enjoying.
How do I use the CBD Mushroom Choka-Latte?
Mix the Choka-Latte with hot or cold milk, or your preferred plant-based drink. For a more premium texture, use a milk frother. It also works well added to your morning coffee or latte.
What is the difference between CBD oil and hemp seed oil?
CBD oil contains cannabidiol from hemp extract blended into a carrier oil. Hemp seed oil is pressed from hemp seeds and does not naturally contain meaningful levels of CBD. They are related to the same plant family but are not the same product.
How do I choose a CBD product?
Look for clear CBD strength, transparent ingredients, responsible serving guidance, quality standards, and available lab testing information. A good CBD product should be easy to understand without exaggerated promises.
What does CBD strength mean?
CBD strength tells you how much CBD is in the product, usually shown as milligrams. For example, a 1000mg CBD oil contains 1000mg of CBD across the whole bottle, not in each drop.
Do your products contain THC?
Mojo Apothecary products are developed to comply with UK expectations for controlled cannabinoids. Finished products should contain no more than 1mg of each controlled cannabinoid per container, supported by appropriate product checks.
Do you provide lab testing information?
We value product clarity and responsible information. If you would like to request available lab test information for a Mojo Apothecary product, please contact us at info@mojoapothecary.com.
Are there any side effects?
Some people may experience unwanted effects such as drowsiness, digestive discomfort, dry mouth, or changes in appetite. Stop using the product if you feel unwell and seek professional advice if you have concerns.
How long does CBD take to work?
There is no single timing that applies to everyone. Format, serving size, food intake, routine, and individual differences can all affect how CBD feels within a routine. Avoid taking more than the recommended daily amount.
How should I store CBD products?
Store CBD products in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep packaging closed when not in use and always keep products out of reach of children and pets.
Can I travel with CBD?
Rules vary by country and can change. If you plan to travel, check the laws of your destination and any transit countries before carrying CBD products with you.
How long does delivery take?
Standard UK delivery is expected to take a few working days once dispatch is live. Delivery options and timelines should be checked at checkout.
Can I return products?
For hygiene and safety reasons, returns are usually only accepted for unopened products within the stated returns period. Please review our Shipping & Returns page or contact us if there is an issue with your order.
