CBD is a naturally occurring phytocannabinoid (chemical compound of the Cannabis plant) found in hemp that has no psychoactive effects. Hemp is legal to grow domestically as part of the 2018 US Farm Bill. CBD has been shown anecdotally to help relieve many physical and mental ailments. People often treat CBD like a daily vitamin in their wellness regimen for homeostasis and balance. Sometimes it is used as another tool for athletic training or injury recovery. As funding for research becomes more available, more peer-reviewed studies report that CBD acts as an anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anticonvulsant, and antiemetic. ** Be aware that the Food and Drug Administration has not approved hemp or CBD products for any medical uses, and these statements have not been evaluated by the FDA.

“Hemp” and “Marijuana” are scientifically both Cannabis sativa L. They are both of the Cannabis genus belonging to the Cannabaceae family. Over the last few thousand years, they have been bred to be very different plants. Marijuana is bred for its resinous buds more concentrated with the psychoactive compound, THC, while hemp is bred for its fibers and seed oils. The US designates hemp to be no greater than 0.3% THC by weight. But hemp is still Cannabis, it’s just most certainly not Marijuana. In the US, hemp often now looks and smells like marijuana since it is being grown for CBD potency, and not typically for traditional industrial or commercial reasons like in Europe or Asia.

The Endocannabinoid System is a group of cannabinoid receptors present in the brain and central and peripheral nervous systems. It is found in humans and many animals. The primary function of these receptors (CB1 and CB2) is to interact with cannabinoids in the body. The human body naturally produces endocannabinoids, but cannabinoids can also be created synthetically or found naturally in plants like cannabis. Research shows the endocannabinoid system may be involved in various physiological processes and is most commonly said to help maintain balance and homeostasis throughout the body.
