Everything You Need to Know About CBD
What is CBD?
CBD, or cannabidiol, is a naturally occurring substance found in hemp. It interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system to help regulate our overall physical health. CBD has countless therapeutic benefits without any of the issues related to THC.
When life throws the body's internal systems off balance, the endocannabinoid system helps to bring it back to equilibrium. Disruptions to the body's homeostatic balance can come from several sources, like stress, injury, illness, or a general cannabinoid deficiency. The boost from supplemental, full-spectrum CBD gives the endocannabinoid system the support it needs to keep the body's functions working in harmony.
CBD is an awesome option for anyone looking to feel great naturally. There is something for everyone depending on what you are looking for. Stress relief? Relief from aches? Hydrated skin? All B GREAT products contain superior-quality, full-spectrum hemp crafted in a natural blend to support your body.
The endocannabinoid system has two different kinds of receptors: CB1 receptors, which are found in the central nervous system, and CB2 receptors, which are found in the peripheral nervous system and immune cells. Since CB1 receptors are concentrated in the brain, CBD ingestible products can be particularly beneficial to the nervous, gastrointestinal, and endocrine systems. CB2 receptors are concentrated in the skin and smooth muscle, so CBD topicals may be beneficial for muscle soreness and post-workout inflammation.
