How is CBD made from Hemp?

Image
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a chemical compound that is derived from hemp, which are essentially the components of the cannabis sativa plant with extremely low THC levels. In the United States, industrial hemp/CBD is legally defined as possessing no more than a 0.3% concentration of THC. CBD has numerous health uses and benefits, and is popularly consumed in the form of oils and creams. CBD can be extracted from both cannabis plants that contain THC as well as industrial hemp plants cultivated with no THC. However, extracting CBD from cannabis plants that contain high levels of THC is technically more difficult and requires professional equipment. One of the most common methods of extracting CBD from hemp is by using solvents. Liquid solvents, oil solvents, and CO2 are some of the easiest and most commonly used. To begin the extraction process with a liquid solvent, plant material (trim, flowers, etc.) must first be put into an isolated container. Then, liquid solvents (such as butane...

Everything You Need To Know About CBD Oil

Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most popular cannabinoids, or chemical compounds, derived from the cannabis plant. Unlike tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), CBD has no psychoactive effects (meaning it will not get one “high”). In recent years, CBD use has become increasingly popular due to its wide range of health benefits, and is consumed in a variety of ways. CBD can be consumed through vaporizers, edibles, oils, supplement powders, and ointments/creams. Of these consumption methods, CBD oil is one of the most popular and acts as the foundation for many others.  To make CBD oil, there are a handful of methods.

The liquid is then evaporated to make highly concentrated CBD oil. A second ...

A few of the side effects of ibuprofen are, stomachaches, heartburn, rashes, constipation, loss of hearing, indigestion, heart palpitations, and loss of appetite. The side effects of ibuprofen are serious. The previous list was just the short-term effects of using ibuprofen. The long-term effectsalong with increased dosage of ibuprofen to manage pain include kidney disease, heart problems, and gastrointestinal bleeding.CBD can help reduce pain without causing such severe side effects.

Pain is also worsened by factors such as underlying medical conditions and depression. Inflammation is managed by the cytokine immune cells. CBD is a plant produced cannabinoid that can acti...

Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most popular cannabinoids, or chemical compounds, derived from the cannabis plant. In recent years, the popularity of CBD use has soared due to its many health benefits and medicinal uses. CBD has been known to reduce inflammation, combat anxiety, reduce the likelihood of seizures, and even prevent cancer. One perhaps less-discussed health condition that CBD is believed to help treat is diabetes. While some openly claim that CBD is acure-all for diabetes, the truth is that research and medical knowledge regarding CBD’s ability to treat diabetes is still somewhat limited. However, there is evidence that suggests CBD can help mitigate secondary symptoms of diabetes, which in turn helps reduce the overall severity of the condition. To understand how CBD combats diabetes, one must first understand the condition itself. Simply put, diabetes is a metabolism disorder, in which the way the body digests and converts food into energy is disrupted....
