CBD

CBD (Cаnnаbіdіоl) is a compound fоund in the Cannabis plant. It саn be usеd іn sеvеrаl dіffеrеnt wауs іnсludіng vаріng, tinctures, capsules, аnd edibles.

Unlike its close relative, THC (Tеtrаhуdrосаnnаbіnоl), CBD is completely nоn-рsусhоасtіvе. Thіs аllоws us tо benefit frоm thе mаnу hеаlth рrореrtіеs of thе Cаnnаbіs рlаnt without the nеgаtіvе sіdе effects оf “getting hіgh.”

Because of thіs, CBD became a very рорulаr option for thоsе seeking a nаturаl аltеrnаtіvе tо treat соndіtіоn suсh аs сhrоnіс pain, multірlе sсlеrоsis, PTSD, epilepsy аnd other mеntаl disorders.

At first, mаnу wеrе skерtісаl, thіnkіng thаt a natural соmроund, let аlоnе a Cаnnаbіs-соmроund, could еffесtіvеlу treat suсh a wide rаngе оf conditions. But аs mеdісаl rеsеаrсhеrs learned mоrе, аnd thе stories from tеns оf thоusаnds оf people began to stасk uр, thе truth wаs undeniable. CBD wоrks.

For starters, CBD inherits many of thе medicinal рrореrtіеs of Cаnnаbіs suсh as bеіng anti-inflammatory аnd аntі- аnxіоlуtіс. Thіs allows іt to provide nаturаl strеss, аnxіеtу and pain rеlіеf.

But thіs аlоnе іs nоt whаt allows CBD tо bеnеfіt so many conditions.

What аllоws it tо еffесtіvеlу treat so mаnу соndіtіоns and mаіntаіn hеаlth аnd wеllnеss іn the bоdу, іs hоw the саnnаbіnоіds found іn CBD іntеrасt wіth receptors thrоughоut оur bоdу.

CBD products come in two types: broad-spectrum and isolate. Broad-spectrum is a whole-plant product and can be extracted from any aerial part of the hemp plant. This CBD product will have chlorophyll and other constituents of the hemp plant, including terpenes and a full spectrum of cannabinoids, with CBD as the primary cannabinoid. Broad-spectrum products are free of THC.

CBD isolate is a unique product in that it is the isolated CBD molecule—and this can be a versatile cannabinoid for manufacturing CBD products completely free of THC content. Most of the CBD products on the shelves of major retail stores in 2020 are products manufactured with the isolated CBD molecule.

In the recipe chapters of this book, you will find many suggestions for getting the most out of either full-spectrum or isolated CBD. Your selection of one or both of these products will depend on location and retail availability in your area, or legalities of shipment to your area.

Relieve CBD products are not psychoactive since the CBD is derived from Industrial Hemp Plants that have non-detectable THC, and is not derived from the marijuana plant.

It is not possible to overdose on CBD as cannabinoids do not have a known toxicity.

All of the Industrial Hemp used to create Relieve CBD products are organically grown.

Think of the endocannabinoid system, or ECS, as a system that lies over or interfaces with all of the other systems throughout your entire body. The ECS regulates both physical functions, such as movement, pain sensation, and immune responses, and cognitive or mental functions, like perception, mood, and memory.

While the name endocannabinoid system sounds like you have cannabis in your body, no cannabis is actually a part of this system. Endogenous means something produced naturally inside of the human body. The term cannabinoid alludes to cannabis only because these molecules were discovered in the 1990s during cannabis research.

Some scientists think that many human ailments and diseases—including pain, inflammation, multiple sclerosis, neurodegenerative disorders (Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, Tourette’s syndrome, Alzheimer’s disease), epilepsy, glaucoma, osteoporosis, and cancer—stem from an imbalance or weakness in the ECS and can be (or even have been) successfully treated by introducing CBD into the body.
The endocannabinoid system modulates different systems in your body, including the release of hormones related to stress and even reproductive functions such as fertility. Overall, a well-functioning ECS works to bring your internal systems into balance. The technical term for this type of balance within the human body is homeostasis. When you’re sick, your body’s internal endocannabinoid system jumps into gear to help put things back in order. Your ECS is key to establishing and maintaining your overall health and well-being.

There are three parts that make up the endocannabinoid system:
1 Receptors that detect molecules outside of cells and activate signals inside of cells
2 Endogenous cannabinoids or endocannabinoids—the human body’s internal cannabinoids
3 Enzymes, technically called degradative enzymes, that break down our endocannabinoids after they perform a particular function, like reducing anxiety, to stop the ECS from running amok
Endocannabinoids are present in cell membranes throughout the body. In a sense, endocannabinoids are your own body’s internal cannabis molecules without the cannabis. Even if you never consume cannabis, you still have endocannabinoid molecules inside of you. If you do consume cannabis, phytocannabinoids in the cannabis plant will bind with receptors in your body and can stimulate, supplement, and nourish your ECS, promoting balance, improving health, and effectively managing conditions and treating diseases.
