Extensive preclinical research – much of it sponsored by the U.S. government – indicates that CBD has potent anti-tumoral, antioxidant, anti-spasmodic, anti-psychotic, anti-convulsive, and neuroprotective properties. CBD directly activates serotonin receptors, causing an anti-depressant effect as well.
In recent years, scientists associated with the
International Cannabinoid Research Society (ICRS) have elucidated a number of molecular pathways whereby CBD exerts a therapeutic impact. A preclinical study by Dr. Sean McAllister and his colleagues at the California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco reports on how CBD kills breast cancer by down-regulating a gene called ID-1, which is implicated in several types of aggressive cancer. Silencing the ID-1 gene is thus is an excellent strategy for a cancer treatment.

The difference is in its use. Hemp and Marijuana both come from the same plant - Cannabis Sativa L.
Hemp grows naturally low THC and high CBD Oils.
Botanically, the genus Cannabis is composed of several variants. Although there has been a long-standing debate among taxonomists about how to classify these variants into species, applied plant breeders generally embrace a biochemical method to classify variants along utilitarian lines. Cannabis is the only plant genus that contains the unique class of molecular compounds called cannabinoids. Many cannabinoids have been identified, but two preponderate: THC, which is the psychoactive ingredient of Cannabis, and CBD, which is an antipsychoactive ingredient. One type of Cannabis is high in the psychoactive cannabinoid, THC, and low in the antipsychoactive cannabinoid, CBD. This type is popularly known as marijuana. Another type is high in CBD and low in THC. Variants of this type are called industrial hemp.

Since industrial hemp is still illegal to grow in the US.
We import CBD rich industrial hemp paste from Norway where industrial hemp is legally grown and processed. The import process is complex. We must provide samples to the FDA, DEA, and Homeland Security for testing. The industrial hemp paste is held in quarantine until all government aqencies sign off that the THC levels are within the legal limits (essentially non existent). Once the CBD rich hemp paste is in our possession, we further extract the CBD with ethanol and Ultra Performance Convergence Chromatography. This process uses high pressure CO2 as a solvent to separate the CBD from non active organic compounds in our cGMP lab. This is the same process GW Pharmaceuticals of England uses to extract CBD for use in Sativex, the worlds first prescription pharmaceutical made from cannabis extract. Because we follow industry standards, our CBD oil is the most effective and of the highest quality on the market today.
The vast majority of persons using CBD are claiming amazing and sometimes almost instant relief from a wide range of common ailments and illnesses as follows:
