What is Hemp ?

Hemp has been known to have over 25,000 applications. The key benefit of hemp is that it is such a sustainable and eco-friendly crop. Hemp is an annually flowering plant that is the non-psychotropic component of Cannabis Sativa. Hemp has very low levels of THC, the active component of Marijuana which makes you feel"high". CBD oil contains significant amounts of CannaBiDiol, or CBD. Hemp will be a key ingredient as we fight global warming and climate change.

How Does CBD Work ?

CBD primarily interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system, a grouping of millions of cannabinoid receptors found throughout your body, but are primarily clustered in the brain and central nervous system. While CBD is a phytocannabinoid, or plant-based cannabinoid, your body also naturally produces cannabinoids, known as endocannabinoids. Almost every organ of your body, including your skin and digestive tract, contains cannabinoid receptors.

CBD’s molecular formula is C21H30O2, and it has a molecular mass of 314.4636. Unlike THC, CBD does not interact directly with the two classical cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2). This is why CBD does not cause any psychoactive effect. Instead, CBD inhibits the enzymes that break down endocannabinoids, leading to an increase in your body’s naturally-produced cannabinoids. This increase even occurs in our furry friends, making our CBD useful and safe for pets, too!

What Are The Benefits of CBD

The endocannabinoid system has four primary purposes including neuroprotection, stress relief, immune response, and regulating the body’s general state of balance, impacting faculties such as appetite, sleep, mood, and pain. According to federal regulations we can not make health claims.
