CBD, otherwise known as Cannabidiol is one of many substances found in hemp. It helps alleviate pain, reduce anxiety, combat insomnia, and assist with various conditions. Most importantly, CBD oil is entirely safe and non-psychoactive. Unlike THC, it does not produce a feeling of intoxication, which is often wrongly associated with hemp (often confused with marijuana). Currently, the most popular form of CBD is CBD oil. It is a concentrated extract from hemp seeds that contains high levels of CBD and minimal (or zero) THC content. It's worth mentioning that, according to Polish law, if a product contains no more than 0.2% THC, it is fully legal. We want to emphasize that this is such a small dose that even when taking a product with 0.2% THC, you won't feel any "high" effect. Although CBD products are becoming increasingly popular, and the Polish market saw an 80% increase in sales by the end of 2021 compared to January 2021, there are still many aspects of hemp that the average consumer may not be aware of. At Cannoffi, we believe that education is an integral part of the growth of the hemp market.

First of all, we want to clarify one thing. It's not true that simply buying a CBD product and taking it once will immediately make you feel its "healing effects." That's not how it works. If your body has been dealing with a particular issue for months or even years, no product will completely change everything after a single use.

First and foremost, you should determine what ailments you have. Once you have that figured out, it's time to see which product can help you. Make sure to check whether the product you want to buy contains pure CBD or if it is enriched with other active substances (such as adaptogens ). Such combinations can often work more effectively because the ingredients in them interact in a synergistic effect, enhancing their therapeutic properties.

After choosing the product, we move on to the issue of dosage (concentration). And here's another important thing. There is no such thing as a universal CBD dosage to take. Every human body can react differently to the dosage of CBD hemp oil. It's best to start with smaller doses and gradually increase them until you find that the product is working for you as it should. Remember that there's no point in taking more CBD oil than necessary. It won't make the treatment twice as effective or twice as fast. The less you need (assuming you feel the intended effects), the better. In this regard, CBD is like any other substance. Its effects are highly individual, so even two women with the same symptoms and the same parameters (age, weight, height, lifestyle) may require completely different doses.

Now that you know how to take hemp oil, determine the frequency of its intake. The principle is the same. If CBD works for you when taken only once a day, and there's no need for a second dose... then don't take it. If you're taking the oil for migraine symptoms, you may need to take it more often than someone who is using a different oil for sleep problems. A good habit is to take notes. Record when and at what time you took the oil, note the size of the dose, and mark or describe how and after how long you felt the effects. This way, you'll know how quickly your receptors respond to CBD. Keep revisiting these notes to check how your feelings have changed with each day of consuming CBD oil.

There's a common misconception that CBD products should only be taken by individuals who have some health issues. The truth is that CBD oils can also help people who are perfectly healthy and want to, for example, improve their concentration, enhance their mental performance, or simply relax after a hard day's work (especially helpful are oils with adaptogens ). We should keep in mind that every day we are exposed to many negative stimuli that effectively hinder our functioning. We don't categorize them as health issues, assuming they are temporary (e.g., stress). It's precisely for such "healthy" individuals that hemp oils can be an ideal daily companion.

Remember that Cannoffi offers a wide variety of CBD-containing products, and it's not just oils. We have products for immune system support , ointments for injuries , mouth sprays for oral issues or even oils for your pet , to stimulate their appetite, reduce pain, or improve their overall well-being.

Hemp can help with various ailments because it contains over 100 different cannabinoids. The two most popular ones are CBD and THC. There is substantial evidence that CBD can help with:

To answer this question correctly, we should first understand how CBD works on us. We already know that hemp contains over 100 different substances, including CBD and THC. All these cannabinoids have their unique properties and interact with the endocannabinoid system. This system plays a crucial regulatory role in our physiological and cognitive functions. Therefore, there's no such thing as immunity to the effects of CBD oil. Anyone claiming that CBD doesn't work for them may have incorrectly dosed the product (incorrect doses, timing, or symptoms), taken it for too short a time or irregularly, or simply chosen the wrong CBD oil properties for their symptoms. We'll repeat it once more: CBD works, but it works differently for each person. From a biological point of view, there's no such thing as immunity to the effects of cannabidiol (CBD).

No! Anyone who claims otherwise probably knows little about CBD or wants to demonize it. The National Institute on Drug Abuse, a leading federal agency supporting scientific research on drug use and its consequences, clearly states that CBD's influence does not cause any addictive effects on our body. Many scientists, including Dr. Dani Gordon, a qualified medical doctor and a leading expert in the field of hemp medicine, CBD, and integrative medicine, also affirm that CBD does not produce any withdrawal symptoms.

However, it's worth noting that CBD shows beneficial effects in current conditions. When taken regularly, we can notice significant improvement. However, it doesn't mean that our problems, such as joint pain, are cured (CBD is not a magical elixir), but our perception of discomfort is much reduced. Therefore, if we decide to stop taking our oil, there is a risk that our symptoms may return. This doesn't indicate "addiction," but rather that our body has returned to its original state before using CBD.

You may wonder if it's worth taking these products at all if our body returns to its original state after discontinuation. Of course, it is, and for two main reasons:

Many people are afraid to try new things because of potential side effects. This is a reasonable concern since no one wants something to harm them more than it helps. In the case of CBD, no studies have shown any adverse effects associated with CBD. In 2017, a group of scientists analyzed the results of medical research to determine if CBD could cause any side effects. The results unequivocally ruled out any adverse impact on heart function, blood pressure, breathing, body temperature, psychosomatic functions, or the learning process. CBD does not affect weight, appetite, mental disorders, or depression. There are also no side effects observed when using marijuana.

However, if you feel excessive and unwanted fatigue or drowsiness after taking CBD, it may indicate that the dosage you are taking is simply not suitable for you. As mentioned earlier, everyone experiences the effects of CBD differently. In such cases, you should refer back to your notes on the process of taking the oil (we hope you keep them) and check if you have recently increased the dose or changed the timing of consumption. It may also be the case that thanks to CBD, your body is regenerating much better, experiencing less stress, and it may be the right time to reduce the amount of the product you are taking.

In summary, CBD oil has a wide range of applications and can be beneficial in various situations. Remember to always look for products that have more active substances (e.g., adaptogens) to make the effects even more effective. It's best to keep notes regularly; over time, you will see that your health and well-being can significantly improve. Most importantly, CBD oils can help you find balance in your daily life, which is very important in today's busy, nervous, and stressful times. It's worth increasing your knowledge about the health benefits of CBD for your body. Also, remember that CBD can be used by anyone, even your pet. Additionally, CBD is not a psychoactive substance and is a natural alternative to many commonly used medications (e.g., pain relievers).
