Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a Cannabinoid?
    A cannabinoid is one of a class of diverse chemical compounds that acts on cannabinoid receptors in cells that alter neurotransmitter release in the brain. Ligands for these receptor proteins include the endocannabinoids (produced naturally in the body by animals), the phytocannabinoids (found in cannabis and some other plants). The most notable cannabinoid is the phytocannabinoid tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis. Cannabidiol (CBD) is another major constituent of the plant. There are at least 113 different cannabinoids isolated from cannabis, exhibiting varied effects.
  • Will this cause me to fail a urine test?
    The CBD isolate is totally THC free, it is isolated from all the other cannabinoids to its purest form. CBD extracted from hemp contains .3% THC or less which in itself will not cause a positive test result. Products that use multiple cannabinoids (Full Spectrum) do contain THC, but at .3% or less. THC is oil/fat soluble so it attaches to fat cells in the body which over a long period of daily use can add up over time if your metabolism doesn't burn it off and could possibly cause a positive test result. There are multiple factors that play into the scenerio, like, metabolism, weight, type of food you eat, dna, how active you are, and a few others. If you have to take a urinalysis for work, a job interview, probation, or parole, go with the isolate thats THC free. You may still be able to use Full Spectrum products, but i would suggest spacing out the doses so its not daily, that way it gives the THC time to run through your body. This does not pertain to topicals like lotions or salves. Only products you ingest like gummies, oil, vape juice.
  • What is the Endocannabinoid System?
    The endocannabinoid system (ECS) refers to a collection of cell receptors and corresponding molecules. You can think of cell receptors like little locks on the surface of your cells. The keys to these locks are chemical molecules called agonists. Each time an agonist binds to a cell it relays a message, giving your cell specific direction. The endocannabinoid system is the name for a series of cell receptors that respond to certain kinds of agonists. Two primary cell receptors make up the ECS, Cannabinoid Receptor 1 (CB1) and Cannabinoid Receptor 2 (CB2). The keys for these receptors are called endocannabinoids. Endocannabinoids are like the body’s natural THC. In fact, endocannabinoids got their name from cannabis. Plant cannabinoids were discovered first. Endo means within, and cannabinoid referring to a compound that fits into cannabinoid receptors.
  • Will this get me high?
    No. None of my products will get you high. These products are made using industrial hemp. I have CBD only, which does NOT contain any THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol), Full Spectrum, which contain .3% or less THC, and CBD Syrup made with RSO (Rick Simpson Oil) which is whole plant extract but THC free.
  • Whats the difference in CBD Isolate and Full Spectrum CBD?
    A CBD isolate is exactly what it sounds like; pure, isolated CBD compound, all by itself. It exists as a white-ish powder, and contains no other active compounds – nothing. Full-spectrum oil, on the other hand, contains other active plant compounds in addition to the CBD. This includes other cannabinoids such as CBN, CBG, BCVA, THCA, THC (under .3%) as well as aromatic (nice smelling) cannabis terpenes like pinene and limonene.
  • Do I have an Endocannabinoid System?
    Yes. We all have an Endocannabinoid System. Cannabinoid receptors are found all throughout the body, giving them a wide variety of functions. However, certain receptors are more concentrated in specific regions. CB1 receptors are found primarily in the Brain. They are also found in the Cerebellum as well as the male and female reproductive systems. CB2 receptors are predominantly found in the immune system, or immune-derived cells with the greatest density in the spleen. While found only in the peripheral nervous system, a report does indicate that CB2 is expressed by a subpopulation of microglia in the human cerebellum. CB2 receptors appear to be responsible for the anti-inflammatory and possibly other therapeutic effects of cannabis seen in animal models.
