Overview

CBD, otherwise known as cannabidiol, a much publicized and well-known cannabinoid from the cannabis plant, is loved by many cannabis connoisseurs and health professionals for the gentle relief and relaxation it offers. Cannabidiol (also called CBD) happens to be one of the most potent and useful cannabinoids present in the cannabis plant. These compounds are the chemicals that turn on cannabinoid receptors in the brain and body of all mammals.Cannabidiol has many medicinal effects, with the advantage that it is not psychoactive; that is, it does not intoxicate you as THC does, another one of the plants's more than one hundred cannabinoids. Just recently, the World Health Organization (WHO) recognized that cannabidiol is neither addictive nor psychoactive. CBD and THC are both cannabinoids found in cannabis. However, while THC produces a high in the user, CBD does not. CBD-rich hemp oil is available over-the-counter in all 50 states, without a prescription. It was discovered that the Hemp Family of plants (cannabis, marijuana) is loaded with cannabinoids that stimulate our ECS receptor sites. These sites are found in the brain, organs, glands, connective tissue and immune cells and plays regulatory roles in many physiological processes including appetite, pain-sensation, mood and memory. The primary purpose of this system revolves around maintaining balance in the body. Cannabinoids found in all varieties of cannabis work in harmony with the cannabinoids we naturally produce when our system is functioning properly. It is now coming to light that we may very well be Endocannabinoid Deficient and supplementing with Cannabidiol, known as CBD, may provide just what we're missing to restore optimum health. The health benefits of cannabidiol (CBD) from natural hemp oil is this book's primary focus. It explores the similarities, differences, uses and benefits of hemp, cannabis and medical marijuana along with the interplay of THC and CBD. Their 480 other components are also discussed, such as terpenoids, flavonoids, enzymes, vitamins, etc. Make no mistake about it, the endocannabinoid system, although newly discovered, is just as important as any other bodily system, like the muscular, cardiac, circulatory or digestive system. The ECS requires its own specialized medicine as found in the Hemp Family of plants, which is also known as cannabis, and which includes all strains of marijuana.
