Cannabidiol, or CBD, is a non-psychoactive substance found only in Cannabis plants. There is growing scientific support for the proposition that CBD is a valuable therapeutic for a variety of conditions, from inflammation and pain to diabetes, ulcerative colitis, atherosclerosis and heart disease. CBD is particularly abundant in industrial hemp, from which all of our products are derived.
Industrial hemp is defined as a cannabis plant with its parts (stems, leaves, flowers) containing no more than 0.3 percent tetrahydrocannabinol (THC); in other words, minute, sub-psychoactive levels (i.e., not enough to “get high”) on a dry weight basis under Section 7606 of the Federal Farm Bill, or the Agricultural Act of 2014.
Yes! Most CBD oil is produced from industrial hemp, the same plant used to make hemp textiles and hemp seeds. This plant contains trace amounts of psychoactive THC – not enough to make you high and usually not enough to make you fail a drug test.
Drug tests are looking to find traces of THC, not CBD. Our CBD is THC free, containing 0.000 traces. Therefore, our CBD oil will NOT show up on a drug test and will not produce psychoactive effects.
To answer this, we need to take a step back to address the endocannabinoid system, a system within the body whose receptors (CB1 and CB2) have an enormous impact on our health and well-being. "CB1 receptors in the brain are associated with emotions, mood, appetite, coordination, movement, and pain," explains Stormy Simon, former president of Overstock.com and cannabis advocate. "CB2 receptors are found in the immune system and throughout tissues of the spleen and tonsils." The endocannabinoid system is a relatively new discovery. In fact, Simon notes, it was actually discovered and named after the cannabinoids in the cannabis plant, seeing as cannabinoids seem to be the only compounds that activate this system. Many have posited that cannabinoids like CBD, could help improve endocannabinoid function by bonding with our CB1 and CB2 receptors, providing an overall optimal balance.
As stated, the endocannabinoid system is a relatively new discovery, but from what we know, it is a regulator of homeostasis. Homeostasis is the term used to describe when our bodies are in equilibrium or balance. For example, homeostasis regulates the amount of water in our bodies, and if the percentage of water gets too high or too low, it can cause our cells to expand or shrink. When our homeostasis is regulated, our cells are putting their best foot forward, creating overall optimal balance throughout our body. When plant-based cannabinoids interact with different receptors throughout the endocannabinoid system, it regulates homeostasis in different parts of the body; this explains why cannabis-based interventions often have an effect on many disease-like symptoms and cognitive functions.
CBD oil can be consumed in a myriad of ways: tinctures, oil vaping, capsules, sublinguals, or even topicals. When taking CBD, always follow the instructions on the package of the product you have purchased. Oral administration, or taking by mouth, is the CBD delivery method overwhelmingly preferred by consumers and healthcare practitioners and, the delivery method we prefer here at 7th Letter Wellness. It is very convenient, just put 1ml of oil under your tongue for 30-40 seconds, or as long as you wish. Take the oil back with a glass of water and have a hempy day!
Despite numerous studies of a wide variety of dosages of CBD, no side effects have been reported. However, it is always recommended to consult with your healthcare provider.
7th Letter CBD has successfully addressed absorption deficiencies with its proprietary technology. The
enhanced solubility created with this technology sets the stage for greater total bioavailability, resulting in
maximum desired response. Typically, as much as 95 percent of ordinary CBD is destroyed on its way to the bloodstream. Then, only a fraction of what gets there, yields any effects. Without efficient total bioavailability, ordinary CBD products are of limited use. Studies show that CBD coupled with our exclusive technology does not degrade in the stomach, as does ordinary CBD. Also, our patent-protected nano-shell technology greatly enhances the transport of CBD to the bloodstream and then to sites in the body where it can achieve the desired response. 7th Letter CBD, and its vastly superior total bioavailability, multiplies the strength of our products far beyond the reach of competitors.
