CBD stands for cannabidiol. It is the second-most prominent phytocannabinoid and one in over 100 compounds found in the cannabis plant. CBD is non-intoxicating and known for supporting the body and mind in various ways. Learn more about CBD.

CBD oil is a natural oil which is extracted from the flowers and leaves of the cannabis plant. It is used by people all over the world for a variety of purposes.

Hemp is a plant in the Cannaceae family. It’s a cousin of hops and a brother (or sister) of marijuana also known as ganja. Hemp produces buds and flowers every year in the fall time; once harvested, it can be used for an incredible variety of different things.

Its fibrous stems can make textiles and clothing…its seeds are a great nutrition source…and its flowers? They’re nature’s single greatest source of CBD.

No. Intentional CBD is derived from hemp, not marijuana. Both hemp and marijuana come from cannabis plants and are considered close relatives (i.e. sister and brother) however, they are not the same. By definition, hemp contains naturally high levels of CBD and very low levels of THC–no more than 0.3% by dry weight and is a non-intoxicating, non-addictive compound, unlike its brother marijuana – which is naturally low in CBD and contains very high levels of THC – its intoxicating and psychoactive.

Also referred to as the ECS, the endocannabinoid system is a group of receptors in your brain and nervous system that works with cannabinoids made by your body, and those made by plants, phyto-cannabinoids (i.e. CBD, CBG, CBN). The ECS helps to regulate vital functions of the body including:
Digestion
Appetite
Pleasure
Pain
Mood
Inflammation
and much more!

When the ECS is in sync, humans and animals alike are able to achieve homeostasis (or balance), which means it’s operating at optimal performance. Learn more about the amazing endocannabinoid system in our blog.

Hemp and hemp-derived products are legal to produce, sell, and consume throughout all 50 states, thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill; once they are derived from industrial hemp containing less than 0.3 percent THC. However, states can still decide if they want to allow the sale and production of hemp-based products.

Hemp is a variety of Cannabis that is grown for food and fibers. CBD is a molecular compound found in the plant’s extracts. Intentional CBD is extracted from a proprietary strain of hemp known as phytocannabinoid-rich hemp or PCR. This proprietary strain is more richer in CBD and other cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids, and phytonutrients, than the basic hemp plant used by most CBD manufacturers.

Hemp and marijuana are both types of Cannabis. Marijuana contains THC - the well known pyschoactive cannabinoid which causes a high. Whereas hemp, a non-pyschoactive, non-addictive cannabinoid contains very low amounts of THC, but very high amounts of CBD as well as other minor cannabinoids(CBN, CBC, CBG) and are unlikely to cause a high.

Intentional CBD products are manufactured in GMP-certified facilities that are also FDA-approved. These facilities use a variety of ground-breaking and cutting edge technologies and extraction methods, including a non-toxic and sustainable subcritical CO2 extraction, to get our ingredients from hemp plants grown on farms within the United States.

CBD does not have the same ability to create a “high” as marijuana does. CBD effects usually help users feel relaxed, less anxious, promoting a sense of calm, quality sleep and overall well-being but you won’t get high if you choose to use premium broad spectrum CBD products, they contain zero thc.

CBD dosing depends on several individual-specific characteristics such as body weight, diet, medical conditions, prescriptions, medical history, and more. This makes it difficult to set specific measurements that are right for everyone. Prior to starting any dietary supplements including CBD, we recommend that you consult and work with your healthcare professionals to ensure you take the correct dosage.

It's unlikely, however with extremely large servings of CBD it may be possible. If any effects occur it will be minimal due to CBD being non-toxic and well tolerated. The effects may vay and lead to drowsiness and dry mouth, however we have never heard of any overdosing on CBD to date.

The effects of CBD will vary for each individual depending on a myriad of factors including those specific to the individuals, quality of CBD, the amount taken and to lerance levels. The methods of consumption matters.Here's a breakdown of the type of CBD, the onset and how long the effects last.

Inhalation
The fastest way to experience CBD and other minor cannabinoids are done by "Smoking high-grade cannabis strain flowers or Vaping oil". It's often seen as an effective method of delivery, because of how quickly it's absorbed into the body. The effects you feel will set in almost immediately, and last about an hour or a bit longer.

Sublingual
CBD and other minor cannabinoids can also be consumed sublingually, by placing "a few drops of premium CBD Oil " under the tongue and keeping it there for 30 seconds to a minute before swallowing (best use case). This will allow the mucus membranes in your mouth to absorb CBD oil partially bypassing the digestive system and liver to quickly enter the bloodstream. You may feel effects within seconds to a half hour, and effects may last up to an hour or more. Adminerstering CBD oil directly under the tongue and holding for up to a minute is the quickest and easiest way to reap the full potential benefits.

Ingestion
One of the most common ways people consume CBD and other minor cannabinoids is by ingestion. Ingesting "Cannabis-infused edibles" will result in a longer onset of (up to two hours) and effects may last up to 4 - 8 hours - this also depends on the potency. When adminstering CBD oil directly into the mouth, swallowing the oil will prevent CBD from immediately entering your bloodstream, sending it instead through the digestive tract and eventually to the liver, where it is broken down before it enters the bloodstream. Studies show when CBD and other Cannabis compounds are metabolized by the liver, it undergoes what is called the "first pass effect," where enzymes in the liver reduce CBD and other minor cannabinoids concentration before the remainder is sent to the bloodstream and circulated throught the body. When ingesting Edbiles the same principle applies, it will go throught the lengthy process before it reaches the bloodstream.

Topical
"CBD Topicals " when apply directly to the skin are absorbed and slowly interact with cannabinoid receptors. Why we suggest that our CBD and other minor cannabinoid topicals be applied liberally to overcome medium to low rate absorption in the skin. You may feel the effects with minutes of applying our "CBD Bath & Body products " and effects peak within 60 - 90 minutes.

If you are pregnant and/or nursing, we recommend that you consult with your personal healthcare physician prior to using CBD or any other cannabis product.
