  • What does CBD stand for?
    CBD is an abbreviation for cannabidiol which is one of the many plant chemicals found in the cannabis plant. Our bodies have a endocannabinoid system with endocannabinoid receptors. These receptors are how CBD is used by your body.
  • If it's in cannabis, won't it get me "high"?"
    No, CBD does not have any psychoactive properties.
  • What is the difference between CBD and THC?
    They are two completely different substances and molecules. THC affects the brain by binding to naturally-occurring CB-1 receptors in the central nervous system. CBD is a differently-shaped molecule that binds to CB-2 receptors in cell and body tissues outside the central nervous system.
  • Is CBD Legal?
    Yes! Federal law has established that a CBD product (oil, vape, topical, etc) that is produced from the seeds and stalk of the industrial hemp plant (with less than 0.3% THC), it is permissible to buy, sell, and ship across state lines.
  • How Do I take CBD?
    There are many ways to take CBD. The most popular are: 1. Ingested Orally. Either by oil dropped in the mouth (best under the tongue) or edibles (like gummies). 2. Inhaled. Either by smoking the dried flower or using a vaping set up. 3. Topically. By rubbing on the skin.
