What is CBD and how does it work?

Cannabidiol, commonly referred to as CBD, is one of many chemical compounds known as cannabinoids. Cannabinoids are found in hemp and marijuana, both members of the plant family Cannabis Sativa.

Our CBD products are derived from certified industrial hemp farms across Europe, are 100% natural and non-intoxicating.

After ingestion CBD stimulates the endocannabinoid system into producing its own cannabinoids that bind to cannabinoid receptors in the nervous system. This in turn can have a vast array of effects.

What are its benefits?

To maximise the benefits of CBD consistency is key. Although we cannot make any medical claims regarding the use of CBD, studies have shown it is most commonly used for relaxation, alleviating symptoms of stress and anxiety, pain relief, and for improving quality of sleep.

If you are looking to use CBD to help with a specific ailment or medical condition please talk to a medical professional first.

How do you use CBD hemp tea flowers?

Please note all our hemp tea products are sold for novelty, display, and souvenir purposes only, and not intended to be heated or consumed.

Although vaping and smoking are among the fastest, most efficient and most commonly used methods of CBD consumption, we would advise against this due to the negative side effects associated with the inhalation of carcinogens.

Can cannabidiol products make me high?

Our cannabidiol products contain under 0.2% THC. At these levels THC (tetrahydrocannabinol – the chemical compound responsible for making users ‘high’) has no intoxicating effects and therefore does not produce the high associated with recreational cannabis. However, CBD hemp teas are bred to contain high levels of CBD which can cause a spectrum of sensations such as relaxation, sedation or stimulation among others. Please review the Hemp & Herb Disclaimer for more details.

 

Are your products lab tested and certified?

Yes, all of our CBD products have been lab tested, analysed and certified. All of our oils and teas come from certified EU hemp farms. To request a CoA please contact us via our Contact Form.

Are all CBD percentages stated on the site accurate?

All CBD percentages relating to oil products are accurate and as stated. This is because every batch is individually tested before being distributed into bottles, so the results are uniform across each batch and represented in the relevant certifications.

CBD percentages relating to hemp tea flower are approximate due to hemp's naturally occurring properties. It is impossible to know the CBD value of a single bud without testing it directly as CBD levels vary from flower to flower even if harvested from the very same plant. Furthermore there is a lot of medicinal value in terpenes and the overall entourage effect - a 12% strain may work better for an individual than a 16% strain, so a higher CBD value does not necessarily equate to a 'better' product.
