CBD (or Cannabidiol) is a naturally occurring chemical compound found in the flowers and leaves of the cannabis plant. Once extracted, CBD can be taken under the tongue, in food and drinks, topically--n lotions and oils, and more.

While CBD is sometimes misinterpreted as being one and the same as marijuana, unlike its chemical counterpart THC (or tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD is not psychoactive, making it great for everyday use.

In recent years, CBD has been clinically proven to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-psychotic, anti-convulsant, antidepressant, and anti-cancer properties. Research shows CBD can be used to help with anxiety, depression, arthritis, epilepsy, sleep disorders, ADD + ADHD, asthma, heart disease, mood disorders, addiction, OCD, and more.*

CBD works by enhancing the Endocannabinoid System (ECS)--the system in charge of maintaining our bodies’ “homeostasis."

Is your temperature too high or too low? Are you hungry… are you tired? How are your hormones? All of this is regulated by your ECS, so it’s important that this system is working up to par!

Each of our Endocannabinoid Systems are made up of receptors that respond to cannabinoids like CBD. When CBD is introduced to the body, it bonds with these ECS receptors, effectively improving their functionality. Much of our bodies’ daily functioning affected by the well-being of our ECS, including our mood, energy level, immune activity, blood pressure, bone density, and metabolism.

This is why CBD has such a broad range of health benefits!
