What is CBD?

Like THC Cannabidiol is a component (cannabinoid) which can be found in the cannabis sativa plant. A difference with THC however is that CBD is not psychoactive, which means it will not cause a “stoned” or “high” feeling.

In order to obtain oil with extremely low THC-percentages, hemp plants were chosen which are legally cultivated for many industrial means. These hemp plants were then further bred for obtaining a CBD-percentage as high as possible.

How does CBD work?

After THC the most important ingredient which can be found in the cannabis plant and hemp is CBD. It is thought that cannabidiol and other cannabinoids can play an extremely important role in our body and in the bodies of animals.

This as the body possesses an endocannabinoid system which produces its own cannabinoids, the so-called endocannabinoids. These bind to receptors of the immune system amongst others. The plant cannabinoids from cannabis, called phytocannabinoids, imitate the body’s own cannabinoids, which causes these to be able to exert the same influence as the chemicals naturally present in our body.
