cbd education - the 101

Cannabidiol (CBD) is a naturally occurring and non-intoxicating chemical compound found in the flowers, leaves and stems of the hemp plant. Its wellness history has been traced back thousands of years and today the healthful properties of CBD to support and maintain daily health and wellness are being tested and confirmed by scientists and physicians worldwide.

A safe, non-addictive substance, CBD is only one of over one hundred cannabinoids, which are unique to cannabis that influence the CB1 and CB2 receptors of your body’s largest neurotransmitter network — The Endocannabinoid System. It’s a balancing system for your body and is involved in an array of physiological processes that include appetite, pain-sensation, mood and memory.

Cannovia customers using our hemp-derived CBD products as part of their daily routine are reporting that they are achieving the desired support for their wellness they anticipated from CBD.

Recent science would suggest that this is because our body’s endocannabinoid system positively responds to CBD. CBD does not bind directly to either of these receptors but instead impacts them indirectly. These indirect actions include activating TRPV1 receptors that work to control important functions like pain perception, body temperature and inflammation. CBD can also increase the amount of anandamide in the body.

Known as the “bliss molecule,” anandamide plays a role in the neural generation of pleasure and motivation. 1 By stimulating the endocannabinoid system, CBD promotes homeostasis–and we all know how important balance is to our well-being.

It depends on influences such as the amount of CBD taken, physical factors, genetics, and frequency of use. In general, it can stay in your system for 2 to 7 days.

Hemp derived CBD was legalized with the passage of the Hemp Farming Act of 2018. As a ‘farmed’ product, it takes time to produce the hemp biomass used to make CBD. While hemp grows like a ‘weed’, so to speak, it is a bioaccumulator. It absorbs everything, good and bad, in the soil in which it is grown. Therefore, the production of hemp derived CBD products is complex as it requires testing throughout the growth and final production of products. We must test everything from the soil to the water used for irrigation to the selection of seeds. Testing continues after the harvest right up to the Certificate of Analysis of the final product. All of these steps ensure safe products for the consumer but also impact the cost of CBD products.

Cannovia suggests starting with a single serving once a day. Then you can add to the amount and number of servings you take per day (1 – 3 times daily). Many people find that they see the best results when they incorporate CBD into their daily wellness routine.
