What is CBD?
CBD (or cannabidiol) is one of around 140 known cannabinoids found in the Cannabis sativa plant. It is the main active ingredient in hemp-based products, including CBD oils, capsules, edibles, and skincare products. Naturecan's CBD products are purified to ensure they contain non-detectable levels of THC (0.01%), making them safe and legal for consumption.
What are the potential benefits of CBD?
Although research into CBD's therapeutic potential is still limited, early evidence suggests that it may be able to help manage a range of health conditions, including inflammation, pain, anxiety, depression, skin conditions, and sleep issues. CBD influences the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), which regulates many vital bodily functions. It is believed to support the ECS in maintaining a balanced and healthy internal state.
Is CBD legal?
In the UK, consumer CBD is legal as long as it is derived from approved industrial hemp plants containing less than 0.2% THC. Naturecan's CBD oils all contain non-detectable THC (0.01%), which is 20 times lower than the legal limit. All CBD products undergo strict testing with independent laboratories to ensure that THC is non-detectable.
How do I take CBD oil?
To take CBD oil, place a few drops under your tongue and hold them there for one minute before swallowing. This allows the CBD to be fully absorbed into the bloodstream via the oral mucosa. CBD oil is one of the fastest-acting ways to take CBD, and its effects can usually be felt within 15-30 minutes. Dosage differs with each person, so it's important to find your optimal CBD dosage. The FSA recommends a maximum total daily CBD dose of 70mg.
Does CBD oil have any side effects?
CBD is a natural compound that affects everyone differently. While there have been no serious reported side effects of CBD consumption, it is recommended to start with low doses and gradually increase if no side effects are experienced. Some uncommon side effects of CBD include a dry mouth, reduced blood pressure, and light-headedness. It's important to consult your doctor if you are taking any other medication in conjunction with CBD to confirm whether it could cause adverse side effects.
Can CBD make you high or cause addiction?
No, CBD is non-intoxicating, which means it will not make you "high" or cause addiction. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol, the controlled cannabinoid), CBD does not have psychoactive effects. Naturecan's CBD products are purified to ensure they contain non-detectable levels of THC (0.01%), making them safe and legal for consumption.
