General Information

CBD is also known as cannabidiol, which is one of over 100 cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. It can interact with the body's endocannabinoid system, which plays a role in maintaining homeostasis. Many people use CBD for wellness support due to its natural benefits. Find more info about CBD in our handy beginner's guide.

The simple answer is yes! Any CBD oil that is produced using licensed, industrial hemp plants is 100% legal to buy and consume, as long as it contains less than 0.2% THC.

The simple answer is no. When people hear that CBD products come from the hemp plant, the natural line of thinking is to assume it makes you get high. In reality, legal CBD products will never cause a high. This is because it's actually another cannabinoid, called THC, that can cause a high when consumed in large quantities. Legal CBD products in the UK can contain no more than 0.2% THC, which is nowhere near enough to ever cause a high.

We have an in depth article that answers the question 'will CBD get me high?'

Yes, due to the nature of the extract, all full spectrum cannabis (hemp) based extracts will contain trace amounts of THC.

We have a range of isolate and full spectrum products which are clearly marked as such. You can find the amount of THC in our full spectrum products by viewing the lab reports.

There are a number of drug testing products in the market, therefore different drug tests may look for different substances and may or may not flag a positive test when using full spectrum CBD. While it is very unlikely, highly sensitive tests could potentially pick up trace levels of THC from full spectrum products. Any isolate based CBD product will not show up on a drug test.

As the consumption of CBD is legal in the UK we would normally recommend that you speak with your employer to explain to them that you either take or are considering taking CBD products.

When it comes to using a CBD product with medication, we always advise speaking to a doctor or pharmacist before adding CBD into the mix. The general rule is to leave a two hour gap, and a four hour gap for anything that is contra-indicated with grapefruit. However, not all medications can be taken safely with CBD (even with the time gap), so speaking with a medical professional first is always safest.

Everyone is unique and as such the answer is that it depends on you. Optimal dosages and strengths vary from person to person based on a number of factors including body weight, height and tolerance.

If you're new to CBD then we always recommend that you start with a lower strength product and build up using our helpful information on recommended dosage build ups.

If after building up you're not feeling the desired benefit then you should move up to the next strength product.

It is important to remember that when you first start taking CBD it is about finding the right balance and enabling your body to get used to taking CBD, therefore it may take a little time to find the right strength and dosage for you.

Using CBD

Start low and slowly grow is the key to starting your CBD journey. This will allow you to slowly build up your endocannabinoid system and fully realise your sweet spot. Your endocannabinoid system works on a bell curve and if you take too much at once then you can go over the curve and overload which could result in having the opposite effect of what your hoping to achieve.

Each product page contains instructions on how to use that product alongside a leaflet that will be sent out with your order.

If you have any further questions our Facebook community support group is on hand to help with their experiences.

Please keep the oil in a cool dark place when not in use, a cupboard or shelf should be fine.

This is due to the oil being quite thick after mixing, if the environment is cool or it's been posted during the winter this may cause the oil to be to thick for the dropper. To fix this please just pop the oil in a cup of warm water for around 3 minutes until it softens up.

Because we suspend the extract in olive or rice bran oil if you get some oil onto the thread of the bottle it will act like a lubricant and undo the bottle. To stop this happening we recommend that, if you do get oil onto the thread, you clean it thoroughly, both on the bottle and on the lid.

CBD is generally not a controlled substance, however, due to the nature of the product some countries border forces may consider it to be cannabis oil and, as such seize you and the product. For this reason we generally advise against not travelling with CBD.
