CBD Basics
CBD is short for cannabidiol. It's the non-intoxicating molecule harvested from industrial hemp plants. It works with a system in the human body called the endocannabinoid system.
When CBD binds with receptors in the endocannabinoid system, it helps your body by reducing inflammation and pain, boosting your immunity, mood, memory, and calming your nerves so you can rest.
ANXIETY
CBD can help reduce feelings of anxiety and depression.
By chilling out the secretion of the stress hormone cortisol and activating more receptors in your brain for the happiness hormone, serotonin. This helps you have a more balanced hormone situation and reduces your anxiety.
Studies show that CBD can even reduce symptoms of Social Anxiety Disorder and the fear of public speaking.


FOCUS
CBD can help you focus by reducing the inflammation that jams up your brain and makes it so hard to concentrate.
It works like this; CBD molecules bind to endocannabinoid receptors in your brain and naturally reduce neuroinflammation.
Less neuroinflammation helps with neuroplasticity, which means that your brain is able to reboot better. That makes a HUGE difference with learning and mental wellness.
PAIN
Research shows that inflammation is a major pain.
Inflammation happens when your immune system sends hormones to a part of your body that needs help healing. These hormones tell your nerves to protect the inflamed area.
And that's where pain comes from kids.
Luckily CBD naturally reduces inflammation, which reduces pain without harsh side effects or any potential for addiction.


SLEEP
The endocannabinoid system helps with balance and homeostasis in your body.
By reducing pain, anxiety, and regulating your hormones, CBD can tell your body to calm down so you can relax and fall asleep.
CBD also affects your sleep cycles and can help get you that REM sleep that your brain loves so much.
