What is CBD?
CBD (AKA cannabidiol) is a safe and natural compound found in hemp plants. It is just one of over 100 cannabinoids found in the plant, but it’s fast becoming the most popular feature of this powerful leafy green plant.
One of the main reasons CBD is making waves in the wellness world is because it’s associated with the positive therapeutic properties of hemp, without any of the intoxicating effects.
There’s been much written about the benefits of CBD. And, while it’s believed to interact with the body in a range of ways, one of the most talked-about is its impact on the human endocannabinoid system. Put simply, your endocannabinoid system self-regulates to changes inside and outside of the body to achieve and maintain biological tranquillity. The main function of this is to support homeostasis and balance the internal chemistry of the body.
What is THC?
THC stands for tetrahydrocannabinol; a mind-altering ingredient found in the cannabis plant, which gives cannabis its intoxicating properties. We’re often asked, ‘does CBD get you ‘high’?’ and the answer is, ‘not if you use our products’. They’re all THC-free, meaning none of our oils or topicals will make you feel intoxicated.
Is CBD Legal?
Yes, CBD alone is completely legal. Without THC, it is not a drug, but rather a natural wellness product you can take in oil, cream, vape or balm form. Our products are 100% THC-free, so our CBD will not show up in a recreational drugs test, and therefore is suitable for use in professional sports and other industries that may have this requirement.
How Much CBD Should I Take?
As a general rule, you should start low with CBD and gradually adjust your dosage, building up to find a level that works perfectly for you.
