Frequently Asked Questions

How do know how much CBD to take?

Each person’s endocannabinoid system works differently and reacts differently. There is no straight, solid scientific dosage that states how much CBD you should be taking at any one time. Always start off with a small dose and work your way up to a larger dose. Your weight determines the best quantity as well as the quality of the CBD oil.

What is CBD?

CBD (Cannabidiol) is a chemical compound that comes from the cannabis Sativa plant. There are at least 113 unique compounds found in cannabis known as cannabinoids, of which, CBD is the second most abundant. Unlike its cousin, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is the major active ingredient in marijuana, CBD is not psychoactive. CBD oil used has been through an extraction process to remove THC.​Cannabinoids can be either consumed (phyto-cannabinoids) or they are produced by the our bodies (endocannabinoid). These chemical compounds interact with the body’s central regulatory system. This system is known to maintain a condition of balance or equilibrium within our internal environment and affect bodily processes such as appetite, mood, sleep and immune system functions.



What is the Human Endocannabanoid System and how does CBD work?

The Human Endocannabinoid System​ CBD and THC fit like a lock and key into existing human receptor cells. These receptors are part of the endo-cannbinoid system which impact physiological processes affecting pain modulation, memory and appetite plus anti-inflammatory effects and other immune system responses. The endocannabinoid system comprises of two types of receptors, CB1 and CB2, which serves distinct functions in human health and well-being. CB1 receptors are primarily found in the brain and central nervous system, and to a lesser extent in other tissues. CB2 receptors are mostly in the peripheral organs especially cells associated with the immune system.
