General Questions
-
CBD, or cannabidiol, is a natural compound from the Cannabis sativa plant that doesn't cause a "high" like THC. It interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system and is known for potential benefits like reducing inflammation and anxiety. CBD comes in various forms, such as oils and capsules, and is used for issues like chronic pain and insomnia. While generally safe, it's wise to consult with a healthcare professional, especially if you're on medications. Learn more here.

The legality of CBD (cannabidiol) depends on your location. In many places, CBD derived from industrial hemp with low THC content is legal, while CBD from marijuana may be more regulated. In the United States, the 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp-derived CBD with less than 0.3% THC, but state regulations can vary. Other countries also have different rules, with some allowing CBD more freely than others. Always check local laws to ensure compliance with the current regulations in your area.
-
Due to its non-intoxicating nature and derivation from industrial hemp, wherein the legal threshold of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is mandated to be below 0.3 percent, hemp-derived CBD does not induce any psychoactive or euphoric effects.
-
It is unlikely that a CBD product user will fail a drug test, though we cannot guarantee. Each product is tested to have under .3% THC, with many containing no THC. If you are concerned, we recommended trying one of our 0% THC products. However, we advise our customers to use their own judgement if they are routinely drug tested.
-
THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the psychoactive compound in cannabis. It is the compound responsible for producing the "high" effect.
-
Effects may include relaxation, euphoria, improved mood, or pain relief. Individual experiences vary based on dosage, tolerance, and body chemistry.
-
The effects of CBD and THC can differ among individuals based on factors such as height, weight, and the dosage consumed. CBD oil does not contain intoxicating elements, so it does not induce a "high."
THC, however, does contain the psychoactive compound associated with a "high". Most users will typically notice the psychoactive effects within 30 minutes to 2 hours.
Whether you choose CBD or THC, it is advisable to begin with modest amounts and incrementally adjust the dosage with each use until achieving the desired results.
-
Since everyone's body is different, it's hard to have one-size-fits-all measurements. It's best to talk to a doctor or health expert to figure out what's right for you.
