CBD Q&A

What is CBD?

CBD – Cannabidiol, is one of the many cannabinoids found in the Cannabis Sativa plant. People all over the world use CBD for a variety of reasons.

What is the difference between hemp oil and CBD oil?

Both are produced from Cannabis. The product that is called hemp oil or hemp seed oil is obtained cold from hemp seeds. This oil contains vitamins A and E, omega 3 & 6, carotene and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc and only a small trace of cannabinoids. Hemp oil is used in cooking, as a base oil for CBD oil but can also be found in skincare.

Will CBD 'high' me?

No, CBD will not 'high' you as it does not contain the THC responsible for this psychotic effect.

What is THC?

THC stands for 'Tetrahydrocannabinol' (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) and is known for its psychotic effect; this molecule is not allowed in cosmetics and food products.

What can CBD do for my skin?

CBD can help improve various problematic skin situations. It works because it 'communicates' with the receptors that form the endocannabinoid system that all mammals have. CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors have been found in sweat glands, hair follicles and skin cells. CBD and these receptors help the skin's endocannabinoid system maintain perfect balance, which is optimal for naturally radiant and healthy skin. CBD can help with redness, uneven and dull complexion, skin blemishes, dryness and excessive sebum production, sun damage to the skin, severe inflammation such as acne, psoriasis and rosacea up to irritations caused by plants or insect bites.

What does FULL SPECTRUM mean?

Full-spectrum means that the full spectrum of cannabinoids naturally present in the Capana plant are retained to create what is believed to be the best way to benefit from hemp extracts.

No cannabinoids including THC are entirely removed. Normally full spectrum oil contains maximum 0.2% THC. It has been proven that if all the cannabinoids present in the plant are taken together, the benefits are greater than taking them all separately.
