EDUCATION HUB-Understanding Hemp & CBD

  • What is Hemp?

    Hemp is a plant from the Cannabis sativa family that has been used for centuries in textiles, nutrition, wellness, and more. Unlike marijuana, hemp contains low levels of THC (less than 0.3%), making it non-psychoactive.

    Key Facts About Hemp:

    Legal in the U.S. under the 2018 Farm Bill if it contains less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC.

    Used in a variety of products, including CBD oil, hemp seeds, fiber, and skincare.

    Contains naturally occurring cannabinoids like CBD, CBG, and THCa.

  • What is CBD?

    CBD (Cannabidiol) is a naturally occurring compound found in hemp. It is non-intoxicating and interacts with the body’s Endocannabinoid System (ECS) to help regulate various functions.

    Benefits of CBD May Include:

    Relaxation & Stress Support
    Sleep Aid
    Muscle & Joint Relief
    Skin Hydration & Balance
