CBD 101

Cannabidiol, aka CBD, is a a non-psychoactive compound found in the hemp plant and cannabis plant. CBD oil is extracted from the plant and incorporated into a variety of health and wellness products.

Ok…so how does it work?

Mammals’ bodies contain a biological system called the endocannabinoid system (ECS) that is expressed through the central and peripheral nervous systems, influencing many functions in the body such as memory, motion, pain sensation, and mood. Taking CBD is thought to supplement the ECS, helping the body create and maintain good health.

Why do people love it?

CBD has gained popularity quickly, with everyone from seniors to veterinarians talking about its potential health benefits. Additionally, it’s thought to have anti-inflammatory properties and has been suggested to help relieve pain, anxiety, and gastrointestinal upset.

CBD is used as a supplement for pets too! You can find Charlotte’s Web Paws at our stores, aiming to maintain your dog’s sense of calm and healthy hips and joints.
