Endocannabinoids are holistic agents in your body that control multiple functions, including sleep, appetite, and cognitive health. Your immune system also utilizes the endocannabinoids for proper functioning and effective action against foreign intruders.

Research reports that the endocannabinoid system regulates different body activities, ranging from memory and digestion to pain modulation and respiration. If the endocannabinoid system is malfunctioning or slowed down, misregulation takes place inside the body.

Due to that, you may become more prone to certain ailments. Since CBD mimics endocannabinoids in certain ways, it can act as a substitute or supplement in these cases. Till now, research has unveiled many benefits of CBD.

Pain and Inflammation: CBD helps reduce pain and inflammation in the body due to its anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. It also appears to block the pain pathways to reduce or eliminate the sensation of pain.

Mental Health: CBD also plays a role in easing anxiety and depression. Studies show that it can uplift your mood, positively affecting your general wellbeing and calmness levels.

Cancer: A small study showed that CBD might help prevent the spread of cancer cells. While larger studies haven’t backed that claim, there’s sufficient evidence for CBD’s usefulness in alleviating cancer-related pains. It also helps ease anxiety in cancer patients.

Neuroprotection: Research has found CBD to be helpful against several skin conditions, including acne and rosacea. It may help keep bacteria at bay while reducing skin inflammation.

Anti-Seizure: The only CBD product that has been approved by the FDA to date is against rare forms of epilepsy. CBD is known to reduce the frequency of seizures.

CBD is well-tolerated by the body, but there are still some side effects. These include changes in appetite and weight. Also, CBD can cause fatigue and diarrhea. Some people may also have an allergic reaction to CBD, which has similar symptoms to a pollen allergy.

Moreover, CBD has drug interactions. Thus, it may disturb or hinder the functioning of some medicinal drugs.

No. CBD does not make you high since it is not psychoactive. On the contrary, THC is responsible for causing a high in cannabis users.

CBD mainly shows an effect on the body by interacting with the endocannabinoid receptors. These receptors are present inside and outside the brain, along with other parts of the body, especially the immune system.

Endocannabinoids produced by the body normally attach to these receptors to stimulate changes that would keep the body in hemostasis – a well-balanced internal environment.

CBD works like endocannabinoids, having the same effect on the receptors. In this way, it can maintain different functions, such as pain pathways, digestion, emotions, memory, respiration, mood, and appetite.

No. Full-spectrum CBD refers to the hemp extract that contains THC. However, the federal limit for THC in CBD products is 0.3% THC, and it does not cause the infamous cannabis high.

Some users may experience that CBD works for them at times and shows no results in other instances. This could be due to improper dosage administration or using a low-quality product.

Current research says that CBD is not addictive.

In fact, it may help curb cravings in people who suffer from addiction. However, more future research will shed light on this.

The effects of CBD may vary among different individuals. Normally, CBD has a relaxing effect on the body.

Therefore, it won’t make you tired. But again, the symptoms may vary from person to person.

Studies show that CBD enhances cognitive function and may improve your focus and concentration.

Many studies have reflected CBD’s effectiveness against sleep disorders, especially insomnia and PTSD. Since it alleviates anxiety, relaxes the brain, and improves the REM sleep cycle, it may be a reliable sleep aid.

It’s improbable, according to research, that CBD will cause nightmares. Instead, it’s known to be useful in preventing nightmares in people with PTSD.

Studies have shown that CBD helps relieve joint pain in patients with arthritis. Since it also suppresses inflammation, it may be a reliable treatment for joint and muscle pain.

CBD’s effects can last anywhere from six to eight hours, depending on how much you’ve taken and the concentration you’re using. Plus, the ingestion method may also affect the duration of CBD’s effect.

It is falsely believed that hemp and marijuana are the same. They’re different plants, although belonging to the same family – the cannabis family. They’re different in terms of application, usage, THC content, and cultivation.

Industrial hemp is specifically grown to extract cannabinoids for making CBD products. These strains have a high cannabinoid level as compared to marijuana.

No. Hemp seed oil is extracted from the plant’s seeds. It has long been used in cosmetics and culinary products. 

On the other hand, hemp extract comes from the aerial parts of the plant and is rich in cannabinoids.

Hemp is a resilient plant and can grow in different regions. Since it also grows in the US, many manufacturers, including us, use US-grown hemp.

Since we’re committed to providing safe and pure products to our consumers, we focus on all aspects of testing. Our products go for testing at a third-party ISO-certified facility. 

The labs use different procedures to check for purity and terpene profile. High-Performance Liquid Chromatography is used to measure the cannabinoid level and potency of each batch, ensuring the absence of THC in broad-spectrum products. 

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry is used to determine the terpene profile of an extract. Moreover, we test our products for the presence of 40 common pesticides, microbes, and heavy metals. 

The lab reports for these tests are present on our website, on the product’s description pages. Alternatively, you can search for the lab reports through the lot codes on each product’s packaging.

Previously, companies could legally check for CBD in their drug tests. However, this is no longer legal, and employers can only test for THC. Since broad-spectrum hemp is THC-free, it won’t make you fail a drug test. 

However, it’s better to check the kind of drug test your organization is using.

Even a minute amount of THC might likely show up on a drug test.

Again, you should consult with your sports agency to check the kind of drug test they are performing. If it doesn’t screen for CBD, broad-spectrum hemp won’t show up.

No, the FDA does not regulate CBD products. Epidiolex is the only FDA-approved CBD medication that you can get for rare epiletpic conditions with a doctor’s prescription.

Since every person’s metabolism is different, it’s hard to answer this question. The retention of CBD in your body will depend on your metabolism.

It’s legal to use CBD in public spaces. Thus, it’s okay for you to consume it at work. 

However, you should still consult with the HR department to ensure that you’re not going against the company’s policies.

The FDA does not regulate CBD yet. Therefore, there’s no standard way to know if a product has been correctly labeled. 

You’ll have to be wary about it on your own. Or, you can check if the company has received any warning letters from the FDA for mislabeling their products.

The TSA allows you to take CBD products with less than 0.3% THC content in a certain amount. However, the regulations may differ in some states and airports. You should check with the regulatory bodies at your destination before packing CBD in the travel luggage.

Keep in mind that the demand for CBD has risen a lot in the past few years. Due to this, many new brands have entered the market to capitalize on the consumers’ new-found interest. 

However, due to an urgency to meet demands and lack of proper education, many brands are selling sub-par products. When shopping for CBD online, keep some things into consideration. 

Testing: Make sure that the company gets its products tested for potency and purity from ISO-certified third-party labs. 

Claims: Remember that CBD cannot cure anything. It is merely considered a treatment option for different diseases. Therefore, do not buy from a brand making over-the-top claims about their products. 

Source: Only buy from companies that source their hemp from dependable farms. Most trustworthy companies get their hemp from US farms. 

Pricing: CBD isn’t the cheapest remedy out there. So, don’t fall for brands that offer snazzy prices for CBD products that are much below the average market rate. It’s likely that their formulas don’t contain high-quality products. 

CBD can have different effects on the medications you’re taking. In some cases, it may hinder their performance, while in others, it may stop their activities completely. It’s best to consult with your doctor before you use prescription medicines while administering CBD.

A combination of CBD and caffeine won’t be problematic since no alarming results have been seen in studies so far. 

However, CBD will make caffeine metabolism slower. As a result, caffeine may have a more prolonged effect on the body. It’s best to keep your caffeine intake below 400mg when you’re using CBD.

When giving CBD to kids, consult with a healthcare professional. They will help you figure out the dose according to your kid’s weight and age.

Although you can administer CBD to your pets and most studies have been animal trials, it’s better to consult with a vet before using a product you’ve bought online.

Currently, there are little to no studies that examine the effect of CBD and essential oils in combination. From what we know, the effect will differ based on the user’s metabolism, the severity of the conditions, and the underlying cause of the problem. 

Essential oils might work in synergy with CBD. However, it’s still better to consult a medical professional or someone who has experience in CBD administration.

It’s best to use the product in one year from its date of manufacturing. Read the manufacturer’s label for more information about a product’s shelf life.

Some people may experience symptoms of pollen-like allergy when using CBD. They should abstain from using cannabidiol and consult with their physicians for more information.

At the time, there’s insufficient evidence from scientific research in favor or against this. Therefore, it’s helpful to consult a gynecologist before using CBD during pregnancy or nursing.

The effect of CBD depends on the method of consumption and your body’s metabolic rate. Vaping is the quickest way to see results, while oral ingestion and sublingual administration might take some time to show results. 

Secondly, the rate at which your body metabolizes CBD will also determine how quickly a product works.

Start with a low dose. You can always increase it later if you do not see any effects. Alternatively, you may use a dose calculator.

That depends on your condition. For instance, you’ll need a higher concentration for anxiety or depression than you would for general wellness or a migraine. Consult a professional or follow the company’s guidelines. 

Some brands have specific products for conditions like pain, sleep, and muscle recovery. The concentrations are pre-determined for these products, making it simpler for you to choose the right one.

Although you can use CBD daily without any major concerns, you may not have to. The frequency of usage will depend on your condition. 

It’s important to note that there are no studies that monitor CBD’s effects for a long period. Most of them only extend over a few weeks.

You can use some CBD products by putting them in a diffuser like essential oils. However, others may contain carrier oils and shouldn’t be used in a diffuser or nebulizer.

Yes, you can vape CBD oil. In fact, it’s the quickest way to get CBD into your circulation. Make sure that you’re buying a CBD vape oil and not a tincture or topical oil, as they’re not the same. 

Note: Long-term CBD vaping can cause shortness of breath and may lead to concerning respiratory issues.

Hemp extract is derived from cannabis.

CBD is one of the cannabinoids in the hemp plant. Hemp has over eighty compounds, and CBD is one of them.

Cannabinoids are chemical compounds present in our bodies and some plants. They can affect the hemostatic condition in the body since they interact with the receptors of the endocannabinoid system.

Broad-spectrum hemp extract refers to the blend containing CBD and other components of hemp, including phytocannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids. But this blend does not contain THC. 

On the other hand, Full-spectrum hemp extract has all hemp components since the entire plant is utilized for making the final product. But the THC content is below 0.3% as per the regulations set by the 2018 Farm Bill.

CBD isolate refers to hemp extract from which all components have been removed except CBD. Such products solely have CBD in them.

Yes, CBD isolates work, but they’re not as effective as broad or full-spectrum hemp extracts. That’s because of the absence of other cannabinoids’ synergy, commonly known as the entourage effect.

Simply put, it’s the enhancing effect other compounds have on the working of CBD. Thus, CBD works better if minor cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids are also present in the product.

You should use topical CBD products for localized issues.

Yes, CBD helps alleviate pain. You can use the CBD Recover for muscle recovery after a strenuous workout or CBD Freeze for pain relief.

Put a pea-sized drop of the lotion or cream on your hand and spread it on the affected area. You can use the body oils for massage and the roll-ons on the site of pain or skin inflammation.

No, our topical products quickly absorb into your skin and do not form a greasy film on the surface.

Yes, you can use the CBD lotion for migraines. Apply it to the temples and gently massage the area to experience relief in a few minutes.

Do not use topical CBD on sensitive areas of your body. You should also not use a CBD topical on burnt or broken skin unless it’s specifically made for repair and relief.

No, CBD topicals absorb quickly on areas with excessive fat since CBD is fat-soluble. Thus, topicals absorb slowly on knees and hands but quickly on the thighs or abdomen.

The topical application shows slower results than vaping. However, you should see the effect in under an hour.

Yes, you can use both products at the same time. However, don’t administer too much CBD at once as a few studies hint towards liver damage due to high doses.

The right concentration will differ from one person to another, depending on the underlying condition, type of product, administration method, and the body weight. 

As a rule of thumb, use 45 mg for every five pounds of your body weight.
