    General questions about CBD

    What is CBD?

    CBD or cannabidiol is a component of the female cannabis plant which – unlike the far better-known active ingredient THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) – is not psychoactive and therefore does not have an intoxicating effect.
    There is trustworthy information about CBD on the internet or in books, and we are also happy to recommend doctors who are familiar with CBD. Many of our customers report, among other things, increased well-being, inner balance and the relief of chronic complaints.
    CBD cannabis is increasingly becoming the focus of research, medicine and the media. According to the World Health Organization, the following properties have been scientifically investigated:

    – Analgesic
    – Anti-inflammatory
    – Anxiolytic and antidepressant
    – Antispasmodic
    – Neuroprotective
    – Antioxidant
    – Antipsychotic

    Is CBD dangerous or addictive?

    The WHO attests that CBD has a very good safety profile and no potential for dependence. It is being successfully investigated in research for withdrawal from other addictions. We have summarised what this means exactly for you in this blog post: Is CBD dangerous?

    Why 0.3% THC?

    This limit is set by the legislator. In Austria and Germany, products with a THC content of 0.3% are legal. You will find a certificate of analysis for each of our products. This is how we guarantee the legality & safety of our products. You can also find more information on the subject here: Why we don’t sell flowers with an excessively high CBD content

    Where are the cannabis flowers grown?

    Our CBD flowers are grown carefully with lots of love, water and light in our own production facility and on our certified organic fields in Lower Austria. We also work with Austrian organic hemp farmers. You can take a little look behind the scenes here: Harvest festival at MAGU CBD.

    How does CBD work and how do I take it?

    CBD acts on the body’s own endocannabinoid system. How you take CBD depends on the product. Among other things, CBD can be taken as drops, applied to the skin or drunk as tea. You will find the recommended use for each of our products either on the packaging or in the product description in the online shop. If you have any questions, we will advise you in our shops or by email at: info@magu-cbd.com!

    I’ve heard that CBD is supposed to help with period pain, migraines, chronic pain, anxiety & stress etc…?

    Due to the current legal situation, we are not allowed to talk about the effects of our products. Fortunately, we have a very large and active community that talks about how CBD can help in reviews and on social media. Just take a look at our channels or our blog. If you have further questions, we are also happy to recommend doctors who work with CBD. 

    What is the endocannabinoid system?

    CBD, like other cannabinoids contained in the hemp flower, activates the body’s own endocannabinoid system. This complex physiological signalling system is part of our nervous system and helps us to keep our body in a healthy balance. Movement, mood, perception and motivation are controlled here. With CBD, regularity and sometimes a little patience are required. It is important that you give yourselves time – the endocannabinoid system needs 2-3 weeks to activate.

    What is the entourage effect? What does full spectrum mean?

    Put simply: the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Our CBD oils and the Full Spectrum CBDeus line are full spectrum products, which means that they contain all the valuable ingredients of the hemp plant. Through the interplay of the individual components, the maximum potential of the cannabinoids unfolds – unlike pure CBD substance – which science calls the “entourage effect”. You can find more details here: The entourage effect.

    Where can I find more information about CBD?

    Fortunately, there is now a great deal of information about CBD online and in non-fiction books. With our newsletter you get up-to-date information straight to your inbox once a month. We also keep you up to date on our blog and on our social media channels. Take a look!

    Complaints/illnesses/medical advice

    Unfortunately, we are not allowed to talk about the effects of our products, as the legal situation prohibits it. But we are happy to give you a list of doctors in Vienna who are familiar with CBD and may be able to recommend something. Just write to us on social media or at info@magu-cbd.com.

    CBD & pregnancy or breastfeeding

    There are (as yet) no studies on CBD during pregnancy or breastfeeding, which is why we do not currently recommend it. Here, too, we would recommend that you consult doctors.

    Can I give this to my pet?

    Yes, animals may consume CBD. Whether dogs, cats, rodents or even horses. Our furry friends also benefit from the effect of CBD. You will find information about each product directly on the product detail pages. 

    From what age can I consume CBD?

    Most of our products are approved as oral cosmetics or food supplements and are therefore suitable for all ages. Many of our customers report how their children benefit from CBD. Whether and from when you want to consume CBD is a very personal decision that everyone should make for themselves.

    Orders

    Where is my order?

    Each of our orders receives a tracking number, which is sent by email as soon as we dispatch a parcel. If you have any further questions about your order, you can reach us at: bestellungen@magu-cbd.com.

    How long does shipping take?

Internationally it can take up to 10 days. We are happy to check where a parcel currently is. To do so, please write to us at: bestellungen@magu-cbd.com

    I have a problem with my order!

    What do you need to bear in mind if you want to return your product? No problem! Just write to us at: bestellungen@magu-cbd.com and we will find a solution. If we made a mistake with your order, we will of course cover the full cost of the return. If there are other problems with your order (you ordered the wrong product etc.), you will have to pay the return costs yourself. After all, our wish is that together we try to make even more conscious purchasing decisions.

    Which payment methods do you accept?

    At the moment we accept credit cards and Google Pay as well as manual bank transfer (prepayment).

    Are there discount codes?

    We try to make CBD accessible to as many people as possible. That is why we regularly have collaborations or offers with discount codes. You can find all the information about this in our newsletter or on our social media channels.

    Shipping and delivery

    Do you also ship abroad?

    Yes, we also ship abroad. However, customers must make sure that the goods are legal in their country. If you have further questions about orders, please contact: info@magu-cbd.com

    How much are the shipping costs?

    Shipping within Austria and Germany (excluding islands) is free from a minimum order value of €75. Below €75, shipping costs €7.5.

    Shipping within the other EU countries is free from a minimum order value of €100. Below €100, shipping costs €9.9.

    Do you ship in neutral packaging?

    Do you have curious neighbours and don’t want everyone to know what you order online? No problem. We always ship our parcels in neutral packaging!

    Can I have my order delivered to a parcel locker?

    Yes, that is possible. Please make sure that your Postnummer is entered in the comment box of your order. We will then send you the tracking number by email. If you have any questions, you can reach us at: bestellungen@magu-cbd.com.

    Is there a wholesale service?

    Yes, there is. You can reach Sebastian, who is currently responsible for wholesale, at: wholesale@magu-cbd.com or by phone at +43 660 192 91 11

    Can you get your products in pharmacies?

    Yes, our products are already available in selected pharmacies. The best thing is to go to the pharmacy you trust and ask for our products; they can order the products immediately. Small tip: it’s best to call ahead, then they will order it and you can pick it up as soon as it arrives.

    Can you get your CBD products at Trafiken?

    With the new legal situation that came into force at the end of January 2025, there are important changes to the sale of CBD flowers in Austria. The Verwaltungsgerichtshof has ruled that CBD flowers with a THC content below 0.3 % are classified as “herbal smoking products”. This means they are subject to the Tabakmonopolgesetz and may only be sold in licensed Trafiken.

    For you as consumers, this means:
    ✅ The possession and consumption of CBD flowers with less than 0.3 % THC remains legal.
    ✅ However, they must be purchased from state-licensed Trafiken. In addition to VAT of 20%, a tobacco tax of 34 % is charged.
    ✅ Our high-quality CBD products such as oils, cosmetics and aroma products are still legally available from us.

    Can you buy your products elsewhere too?

    In principle, you can also find our products on other sales platforms or in other shops. Of course, we are happiest when you buy directly in our shops or in our online shop .

    Shop

    Is your shop barrier-free?

    If needed, whether for a wheelchair or a pram, our shop staff can set up the mobile ramp.

    MAGU CBD sees itself as a safe space and as an ally in all matters of equality.
