Hemp is a variety of the Cannabis species that is desired by farmers and manufacturers for being the fastest growing renewable crop, grown primarily for the industrial value of its derived products. Over the last 100 years, Industrial HEMP has adopted the ever-shrinking Stigma wrongfully placed on the Cannabis-Sativa family 10 generations back. A very common misconception about Hemp is that it will induce a psychoactive effect most recreational Cannabis users seek. Let’s be very clear, HEMP and Recreational Cannabis are NOT the same thing, and Due to this misunderstanding, several industry businesses, manufacturers and unfortunately even users seeking therapeutic benefits, all suffer at the hands of uneducated individuals. As of 2018, all 50 of the United States have recognized the value of this crop while only about 20 legalized the production and use of Industrial HEMP, under 0.3% Delta-9 THC. Thus, allowing countless individuals in need, access to the potential medicinal benefits offered from the Hemp Plant, such as those provided by Cannabinoids, like CBD.
What are Cannabinoids? Cannabinoids are a class of chemical compounds that directly interact with the body’s CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors to alter the brain’s neurotransmissions. In a different perspective, they act like traffic controllers regulating our systems functions. Recent cannabinoid studies suggest CBD, or Cannabidiol, holds the most medicinal value and is also the most abundant cannabinoid found in the Industrial Hemp Plant.
CBD or Cannabidiol is the most common naturally occurring cannabinoid found in Industrial hemp; a species of the “Cannabis-Sativa” plant family. As the cloud of deception lifts, more and more controlled Medical studies over the past two-decades have strongly suggested CBD carries dozens of medicinal and therapeutic benefits, most common including: anti-inflammation, anti-anxiety, and anti-cancer properties as a direct result from the promotion of HOMEOSTASIS, meaning, your body’s systems are balanced and working at peak levels as they auto-regulate themselves.
It achieves this through consistent stimulation and supplementation of the Endocannabinoid System, or, ECS. What is the ECS?
The Endocannabinoid System is the body’s largest Self-Regulatory system in charge of regulating all other 10 major systems. It does so through naturally produced cannabinoids called “Endo-cannabinoids” which directly interact with CB1 and CB2 receptors located throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems. Through progressive scientific studies, more and more data has been unfolding suggesting the introduction of plant-derived Cannabinoids, or, PHYTO-Cannabinoids, promote significant health benefits as they work synergistically, creating what is called an “ENTOURAGE EFFECT”. The Entourage Effect can be achieved through increasing the exposure of phyto-cannabinoids to endo-cannabinoids.
