Frequently Asked Question!
CBD is one of the non-psychoactive active components found in Cannabis plant. CBD has proven to be beneficial for multitude of health issues such as chronic pain, insomnia, PTSD, anxiety, epilepsy and
more. Multiple research has shown that CBD has strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant,
anti-depressant, anti-psychotic, anti-tumoral, and neuroprotective properties.
CBD on its own doesn’t have any psychoactive effects on its user, which means it doesn’t get the user high. CBD products derived from Hemp usually have less than 0.3% THC and if used as directed they cannot get the user high. However certain full spectrum oil does contain THC along with CBD which can have intoxicating effects on its user. If you want to avoid getting high while using cannabis products you
should look for a product that is THC free.
CBD when taken sublingually is very safe to use. Few people might experience minor side-effects such as dry-mouth, drowsiness and might feel a bit light-headed.
- CBD exhibits no effects on humans indicative of any abuse or dependence potential.
- To date, there is no evidence of recreational use of CBD or any public health-related problems
associated with the use of pure CBD. Chronic use and high doses up to 1,500 mg/day of CBD are reportedly well tolerated in humans.

The main difference between hemp and marijuana is in the concentration of the active ingredient THC.
THC is responsible for the euphoric high that is associated with Cannabis.
The other difference between them is in their use, Hemp is widely used in industrial applications such as to extract fiber, paper, building, packaging materials and also to make food, healthcare and medicines.
Marijuana is also used for its medicinal benefits, but it is more often used recreationally by smoking, vaping or in the form of edibles.
CBD isolate is the purest form of Cannabidiol (99% pure) , and is crystalline in nature. CBD isolate is the extract of hemp plant where all other compounds have been removed. CBD isolate products are best for people who are looking to get started with cannabis wellness.
CBD broad spectrum oil is an extract which contains all the active ingredients of the hemp plant along
with terpenes except for the active ingredient THC. Broad spectrum oil products are for people who
want all the goodness of cannabis without THC.
Full spectrum oil contains all active ingredients of the Hemp or Cannabis plant along with terpenes.
Depending on the source of the full spectrum oil it can have low or high concentration of THC in them,
which the user must consider carefully before consuming. Hemp based full spectrum oil have less than 0.3% THC in them and under recommended dosage they cannot intoxicate the user.
Research has shown whole cannabis extracts like broad spectrum and full spectrum oil to be more
effective than just isolate products because of entourage effect. Entourage effect is a phenomenon
where different cannabinoids work in synergy along with terpenes and flavonoids to have a more
therapeutic effect than using CBD or THC alone.
The way CBD or any other cannabinoid reacts with your body depends on the state of the
Endocannabinoid system, hence there is no one dosage that fits all. We recommend that you start with
a small amount and keep increasing the amount until desired results are achieved.
