What is CBD?
CBD (cannabidiol) is one of over 113 active compounds found in the hemp plant called cannabinoids. It works naturally to reduce anxiety, pain, and sleep issues without any mind altering effects or “high” for the person using it.
How it works with your body
The endocannabinoid system is a complex cell-signaling system identified in the early 1990s by researchers exploring THC, a well-known cannabinoid. Cannabinoids are compounds found in cannabis.
The endocannabinoid system is largely comprised of endocannabinoids, receptors, and enzymes that are believed to help regulate a variety of functions in human including sleep, mood, memory, appetite, reproduction, and pain sensation.
Can CBD get you high?
No. CBD is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid, because of this, CBD is great alternative for people enjoying a sober lifestyle.
What is Full-Spectrum?
Full spectrum–or whole plant–CBD contains all forms of cannabinoid available in the plant, whereas Isolate CBD only contains Cannabidiol.
Due to what’s known as the “entourage effect,” full spectrum CBD is considered to be much more effective.
