HELPFUL INFORMATION ABOUT CBD
Are you wondering about CBD and whether or not you should be taking it? You are not alone. More and more people are becoming interested in CBD and are making it a part of their daily lifestyle.
WHAT IS HEMP-DERIVED CBD OIL?
Hemp grows naturally around the world. Throughout history, hemp has been used as a food source, building material, paper, clothing, and for other industrial uses. CBD stands for Cannabidiol, a naturally occurring cannabinoid found in both cannabis and hemp plants. CBD has no psychoactive effect and does not cause a “high.”
CBD can be distilled from either marijuana or hemp plants, but in most states, the CBD that is extracted from marijuana, while not psychoactive, may still be tightly controlled and/or illegal. Our CBD oil is derived from hemp so it is legal anywhere in the nation.
Our hemp is grown in ultra-clean farms and our CBD oils are distilled using the finest methods in the world, to produce a pure product of the highest quality.
WHAT IS CBD?
CBD or Cannabidiol is a naturally occurring compound found in the flower of cannabis and hemp plants. CBD is closely related to tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the compound that causes the feeling of being “high.”
But unlike THC, CBD does not make a person feel intoxicated. That’s because CBD and THC act in different ways and on different receptors in the brain and body. CBD comes in many forms, including tinctures, gel caps, lotions, edibles, and vape pens. Most people try a few of these and determine what works best for them.
HOW DOES CBD WORK?
HOW IS CBD DIFFERENT THAN THC?
Unlike THC, CBD is non-psychoactive, which means you can expect to relax with CBD, but you won’t feel intoxicated. In fact, CBD seems to act as a natural barrier against the “high” (and potential anxiety) associated with THC.
