Frequently Asked Questions About CBD

What is CBD?

To sum it up, Cannabidiol (CBD) is amongst over 100 different cannabinoids that are extracted from agricultural hemp. It is becoming more widely used as a natural alternative for pain, anxiety, nausea, sleep deprivation, depression etc.

Interestingly enough, the human body has an endocannabinoid system and already produces CBD in the bloodstream. When cannabinoids enter the bloodstream, our receptors are able to create signals within our body that improve homeostasis.

Lastly, if you are wondering where to buy CBD, make sure you choose one with Certified Organic Hemp made in the USA and third-party lab testing on every product.

CBD vs Hemp Seed Oil Expand

And are CBD and hemp seed oil the same thing? Absolutely not. Beware of the label, many companies claim hemp oil as CBD.

So, don’t let them fool you! Hemp oil is not going to give you your desired effect.

How much and how often should I take CBD? How long does it take to work? Expand

There are no harmful effects to consuming or applying “too much” CBD. It is always encouraged to do your own research and understand how CBD works in the body before using. As discussed, CBD taken interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system and interacts with each person’s uniquely. Because the FDA has not yet established a dose and treats hemp like a supplement, the amount of CBD consumed is really up to you.

When beginning to use CBD, start out with a small amount of milligrams taken daily and allow a week before deciding to increase or decrease the amount taken. It can take minutes, hours or a few days to feel the effects of CBD depending on your method, which is why it is important to take it daily. Finding the right dosage can be tricky as there is no on-size-fits-all so be patient and listen to your mind and body!

Will I fail a drug test using CBD? Expand

One of the most commonly asked questions! And the answer is, no, you cannot fail a drug test after using a pure CBD product made from CBD isolate. Always do your research and check your labels, CBD from industrial hemp is to contain .3% THC or less which is what drug tests test for. If your product is below the percent it is considered non-psychoactive and failing a drug test is unlikely, however, if taken often in high doses, it is possible.

If you are concerned about failing a drug test it is always safe to choose a pure CBD product.
