Welcome to https://www.cbd.org ("Web Site").
Cannabis products have become very popular, trending across the globe these days with incredible buzz. This article will help to explain some of the core distinctions between types of cannabis extracts and the terminology used when evaluating each product.
The story of Care By Design started with a seed… of an idea. CBD has a long history as a folk remedy going back thousands of years.
Care By Design pioneered CBD to THC ratios that deliver powerful relief. Since then, we’ve continued to research and innovate to offer cannabis wellness with unparalleled efficacy. Our newly formulated ratio line goes beyond CBD and THC, harnessing the full potential of the cannabis plant. We have reformulated our CBD drops and soft gels to be more potent and effective than ever before. We’ve increased our cannabinoid count by at least 25% per ratio and added the minor but mighty cannabinoids, CBDa and THCa. Finally, we’re excited to announce our newest ratio, 40:1, with the highest amount of CBD on the California market.
The best method for consuming cannabis is one that provides the optimal dose for the duration you’re looking for with minimal unwanted side effects. This is a very personal decision, so how do you choose? First, decide what type and duration of effects you seek for your particular condition. For fast-acting effects, use CBD drops or inhale a vape as the benefits can be felt within minutes. Alternatively, digesting soft gels or gummies takes longer for the body to absorb and stay in your system longer. Most importantly, find a ratio of CBD to THC that best meets your needs and tolerance for psychoactivity.
Hemp and cannabis both share the taxonomic classification of Cannabis sativa. Within the United States, plants with less than 0.3% THC by dry weight are labeled hemp; plants with more than 0.3% THC are labeled cannabis. But while they are technically the same plant, there are meaningful differences. Hemp has typically been bred for industrial uses like rope and clothing. It tends to have more fibrous stalks and less of the sticky resin. Cannabis has been bred for use as a consumable, resulting in plants that contain more resin, which is rich in cannabinoids, terpenes, and other fascinating compounds. CBD can be extracted from both hemp and cannabis.
You – and nearly every other animal on the planet – have evolved an intricate physical network known as the Endocannabinoid System (ECS). The ECS regulates a wide variety of physiological processes like pain-perception, mood, memory, appetite, stress, immune function, and homeostasis. Homeostasis means keeping the bodily systems in balance. You can think of the ECS as the body’s universal regulator. If some of our internal systems are dialed-up too high or turned-down too low, it is the job of the ECS to bring everything back into equilibrium.
