Conclusion

Taking CBD oil in cooked foods can be a better way of getting your daily CBD dose. However, heating the CBD oil, evaporates the active compound, CBD. Therefore, only add CBD oil to food and cook at low temperatures of less than 160 oC (320oF), or add it to the meal when it cools to room temperature. Also, ingesting CBD oil slows down the efficacy rate because it has to be digested before releasing CBD into the bloodstream.
