FAQ’s

CBD (Cannabidiol) is one of the cannabinoid compounds that occur naturally in cannabis plant, it is a non-intoxicating component of the cannabis plant with enormous therapeutic potential. The flowers also contain terpenes, amino acids, and various other compounds. Researchers are currently studying the effects of CBD on a wide range of conditions including chronic pain, insomnia, PTSD, anxiety, epilepsy, dementia, arthritis and more. Extensive preclinical research and some clinical studies have shown that CBD has strong anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant, anti-depressant, anti-psychotic, anti-tumoral, and neuroprotective qualities.
Cannabinoids (e.g., THC and CBD) are the chemical compounds secreted by cannabis flowers that can affect the human body. They work by imitating compounds our bodies naturally produce, called endocannabinoids, that affect nerve, brain and immune cell activity. Currently, there are two known primary cannabinoid receptors: CB1 and CB2 receptors. CB1 receptors are located in the central nervous system, and in some peripheral tissues. They affect appetite, muscle control, pain, cognition, thermoregulation, and our stress response. CB2 receptors are primarily found in immune cells, and at a lower density in the central nervous system. CB2 activation is associated with function and immune cell proliferation, inflammation, and pain. Although these two cannabinoid receptors have been studied relatively extensively, there are more cannabinoid receptors being examined.
The answer is yes! Any CBD oil that is produced using hemp plants is 100% legal to buy and consume in the UK as long as it contains less then 0.2% THC.

Our body has a system that produces its own set of cannabinoids, called the endocannabinoid system (ECS). When CBD and other cannabinoids enter your bloodstream, they influence your ECS to either produce more or less of certain cannabinoids. In short, they communicate with your body’s endocannabinoid system to help your body maintain balance.
An effective dosage an range from as little as 5mg of CBD per day up to 150mg per day. Make sure you start low and go slow. Take a few small doses over the course of the day rather than one big dose.

Take a few small doses over the course of the day rather than one big dose.
