Cannabidiol, more commonly referred to as CBD, is one of 113 known cannabinoids residing in the hemp plant. CBD mimics our endogenous cannabinoids and binds to cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2 receptors) in the endocannabinoid system (ECS). Through personal report and scientific research, CBD has proven to help many with various ailments.

The endocannabinoid system, or ECS, is a biological system composed of cannabinoid receptors and endogenous cannabinoids that modulate systems throughout our bodies. CBD and other phytocannabinoids bind to receptors in this biological system.

CBD and THC are both cannabinoids that reside in the hemp plant. Strains of hemp grown for CBD purposes have much higher concentrations of CBD than THC. While THC is known for the ‘high’ or altered state it produces, CBD does not produce the same effect. CBD does not bind in our endocannabinoid system in the same way as THC and research has actually shown that CBD blocks the binding of THC within our endocannabinoid system.
