What do you know about CBD?
Cannabidiol, or CBD oil (from hemp) has been identified by recent research as the component responsible for a great deal of medical benefits, minus the psychoactive component of THC. Cannabidiol (CBD) is just one of over 85 cannabinoids that are identified only in the hemp (cannabis) plant, which contains no psychoactive THC found in other types of cannabis plants. CBD is becoming increasingly popular amongst the masses for having a wide scope of medicinal benefits – due to clinical reports and mounds of test data showing little to no side effects and a lack of psychoactivity (typically associated with marijuana products and high THC). Our Hemp CBD oil has only trace amounts of THC (so technically THC-free) and will not make you 'high'. You get all the health benefits without any psychoactive effects.
How CBD can work for you
Our CBD products utilize the full-spectrum Cannabis plant mixed with Hemp Seed oil. Not all hemp is created equal. Our CBD Oil is made from NON-GMO, PESTICIDE FREE, CO2 Extracted Hemp Oil.
In our experience, a full spectrum plant gives the Endocannabinoid system (ECS) the full cannabinoid profile of CBD, CBG, CBC, and CBN, to substantiate the health claims. These cannabinoids work together synergistically, and there is even a name for it - the 'entourage effect'.
The potential benefits of CBD
Cannabidiol has incredible medicinal benefits and may improve overall wellness. CBD oil is a powerful anti-inflammatory and helps relieve pain, reduces anxiety, reduces insomnia, improves cardiovascular function, improves skin condition, it's anti-spasmodic and so much more.
CBD affects principal cannabinoid receptors in the brain promoting a healthy state of mind, improved cognition, and better memory.
Cannabidiol may help restore healthy balance to the endocannabinoid system. Cannabidiol (CBD) is not only a major phytocannabinoid, it is the most concentrated form of the three main cannabis plants.
Your Endocannabinoid System
The endocannabinoid system is a biological system that plays many important roles in the human body, most importantly in maintaining homeostasis or balance in body systems. It is also responsible for the physical and psychological effects of cannabis. We are hard-wired with a system of cannabinoid receptors throughout our brains and bodies. When these receptors are activated, they enable two-way communication between body systems; something previously thought to be impossible.
Scientists first discovered the system while trying to understand the effects of cannabis, and named it the endocannabinoid system for this reason.
Endo stands for endogenous, which means originating within the body. Cannabinoid refers to the group of compounds that activate this system.
The endocannabinoid system is a major target of medical research because of its widespread effects and therapeutic potential. While scientists have sorted out the basics of this fascinating system, much more remains to be uncovered.
CBD Hemp Oil Extract
More than 400 phytonutrients exist in hemp plants. Our Extraction technology allows us to extract all of these nutrients, without using any heat or harmful solvents. The result is a whole food with exceptional nutritional qualities. With our oils, you’re getting highly sought-after CBD, plus 400+ other nutrients in a naturally synergistic, easy-to-use, easy-to-absorb form. It truly is a one-of-a-kind product.
Every major civilization in history has recognized hemp as #1 on its list of important plants. The ancient Chinese, Indians, Egyptians, Assyrians, Persians, Greeks, and Romans all revered hemp as an incomparable source of food and medicine. Now modern science is validating what the ancients all knew — and uncovering exciting discoveries about hemp.
"Entire Plant" meaning
The whole plant contains CBD, and other natural plant constituents (terpenes, sugars, flavonoids, secondary cannabinoids, etc.) that are found in all parts of hemp. When we say “whole plant” we are referring to the variety of constituents (more than 500 trace compounds) in the hemp oil itself.
As with so many aspects of this amazing plant, the answer is simple: There is no single active ingredient, no magic molecule in hemp. The many cannabinoids and compounds found in hemp work together, synergistically, to create outcomes they could not achieve on their own. Scientists call this ‘the entourage effect,” and it’s been proven over and over.
Likewise, the diverse compounds and chemicals in hemp combine and interact to create a sum that is greater than its parts. For instance, the aromatic terpenoids that give hemp its distinctive smell have been proven to block some receptors in the brain, while making it more likely for cannabinoids to bind to other receptors. Play this dynamic out across and among hemp’s hundreds of compounds, and you begin to understand why whole-plant CBD oil is more effective than single-molecule.

How does the human body react to CBD?
CBD or cannabidiol is the main active compound in hemp, and unlike THC, it is not psychoactive, so it doesn't make people high. Inside the human body, there's the endocannabinoid system, with receptors spread throughout the brain and body. Cannabidiol attaches to these receptors.
General information about the Cannabis Industry:
The Cannabis industry is projected to be at 50 billion by 2026. There are over 23,000 studies that show the benefits of medical cannabis for a variety of diseases and health conditions.
