FAQ

What is CBD?

Cannabidiol is the main phytochemical extracted from the American Industrial Hemp Plant. It has been clinically shown to interact with and play a major role in the healthy functioning of the neurological, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal, immune and endocrine systems.

How does CBD work?

Every cell in the human body has “receptors” – similar to doors – that are unlocked by different substances. As example, one receptor, when triggered, may make cells breakdown fat while another, stop inflammation. Most cells in the human body, if needed, are affected in some way by CBD.

There are over 2,000 published peer-reviewed scientific research articles and human clinical trials on CBD.  The CBD Research Project explains this research on its website (www.cbdresearchproject.org) which is free of charge, user-friendly, searchable and easy to understand.  For answers to your questions regarding the science off CBD, how it works and what might be a good dose for optimal health, this is a valuable resource.

Are there any side-effects?

“Side Effects” are effects that are not wanted or planned on. CBD has no known side effects. While you can take too little of it, you cannot take too much of it. 3-5mg helps with sleep and anxiety while 1,000-2,000mg are often taken for very specific conditions.

Can I take CBD with other medications or supplements?

Yes. As with any dietary supplement, you should consult your healthcare provider before use but there are no known interactions or side-effects when taking our products with any prescription or over-the-counter drug or other dietary supplement.

Is CBD Legal?

Yes. CBD is extracted from the American Hemp plant, where we also get fiber, rope, paper, protein, and oil. While a relative of Cannabis, it legally can contain no more than 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychotropic chemical found in Cannabis.

The Hemp Farming Act of 2018 defined hemp to mean “… the plant Cannabis sativa L. and any part of that plant, including the seeds thereof and all derivatives, extracts, cannabinoids, isomers, acids, salts, and salts of isomers, whether growing or not, with a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis.” 

Our no-GMO CBD isolate is genetically confirmed and tested by third-party FDA-registered laboratories before use. It contains no THC.

What is Duterine®?

Vitamins, minerals, prescription and non-prescription medications as well as supplements, when taken by mouth, need to be digested in order to get into the bloodstream and have an effect. During digestion, much of the material is broken down and lost. For example: Of every 100mg of aspirin taken, only 68mg are used; for every 100mg of statin taken, only 5mg are available.

Duterine is a photochemical extracted from black pepper. In multiple studies, it has been shown to increase the absorption of many vitamins, minerals, and extracts. It increases the absorption, and thus potency, of CBD by 400%.

Are edible film strips (aka “breath strips” or EFS) better than other dosage forms, like capsules, tablets or oils?

Yes. Your mouth (especially under the tongue) is full of small blood vessels, microcapillaries, covered by a thin layer of tissue. Once you place the EFF on/under your tongue, an enzyme in saliva slowly dissolves the EFS, exposing it to these microcapillaries where it diffuses across the membrane and enters the blood stream. This bypasses much of the normal digestive process making the contents more available, potent.

However, EFS is limited to small doses of medicines and supplements. Typically, anything larger than 100mg is not suited for EFS as it will not dissolve correctly.
