DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CBD AND MARIJUANA

If you are here, I am guessing that you are now familiar with the term CBD (cannabidiol) but you may still be unsure what the difference is between hemp-derived CBD and Marijuana is. Many people often ask how it is that they will not get a high from CBD, if it comes form cannabis? 

Good question...

CBD derived from hemp does come from the cannabis plant but it is NOT marijuana. The difference is that hemp plants contain no more than 0.3 percent (by dry weight) of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the psychoactive substance found in marijuana. By comparison, marijuana typically contains 5 to 20 percent THC.  

CBD is best used as an alternative means for pain relief without the euphoria, and more importantly, without the risk of addiction. While marijuana is rich in psychoactive tetra-hydrocannabinol (THC), hemp produces mostly a non-euphoric cannabidiol (CBD.)


CBD oil is a cannabinoid derived from the cannabis plant. Hemp and hemp derived products are legal under the Farm Bill, as long as their THC content is less than 0.3%.

You CANNOT get high on hemp!


CBD is an essential component of medical marijuana, it is derived directly from the hemp plant, which is a cousin of the marijuana plant. While CBD is a component of marijuana (one of hundreds), by itself it does not cause a “high.” According to a report from the World Health Organization, “In humans, CBD exhibits no effects indicative of any abuse or dependence potential…To date, there is no evidence of public health related problems associated with the use of pure CBD.”

In the U.S., people looking for pain relief often turn to opioids, popular because they can effectively block the pain receptors in your brain, but there are two major downsides: numerous side effects and a very real likelihood of addiction.

Gabriella Gobbi, professor of psychiatry and researcher in the Brain Repair and Integrative Neuroscience (BRaIN) Program at McGill, reported that CBD, being free from side effects, is a safe alternative to prescription drugs for pain relief, without the “high” associated with THC.
 
The pain-relieving effects of the cannabis plant (Cannabis sativa L.) are 30 times more potent than aspirin for decreasing inflammation, according to scientists at the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada.


According to an article in Harvard Health Publishing: "CBD has been touted for a wide variety of health issues, but the strongest scientific evidence is for its effectiveness in treating some of the cruelest childhood epilepsy syndromes, such as Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS), which typically don’t respond to anti-seizure medications. In numerous studies, CBD was able to reduce the number of seizures, and in some cases it was able to stop them altogether. Videos of the effects of CBD on these children and their seizures are readily available on the Internet for viewing, and they are quite striking."

One of the most powerful things abut using cannabis or hemp-related products is that "using cannabis, especially when it’s so successful in bringing relief, is that it’s a natural (not synthetic) substance that could reduce the out-of-control addiction rates now being acknowledged by both the medical and law enforcement communities. Plus, as noted by Medical News Today side effects from CBD use are neither harmful nor lethal.  The most common side effect was tiredness.

CBD is readily obtainable in most parts of the United States. All 50 states have laws legalizing CBD with varying degrees of restriction. Currently, many people obtain CBD online without a medical cannabis license.  According to the Farm Bill passed on Dec. 20, 2018, it is legal for farmers to grow industrial hemp for the first time since Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the “Marijuana Tax Act of 1937.

HOW WILL CBD OIL HELP YOUR HEALTH?

If you reached this page, perhaps you are looking for ways to heal your health or someone you know may have talked to you about CBD oil and referred you here. 

Recently, there has been a lot of talk about CBD oil and medical marijuana and a lot of mis-information and misconceptions. "Cannabidiol (CBD) oil, is a major constituent of Cannabis and it has been shown to be a powerful anti-inflammatory and anti-anxiety drug, without exerting a psychotropic effect."  (Source: Journal of Pharmacology & Pharmacy.)


CBD is a constituent that naturally occurs in industrial Hemp, and is just one of over 85 cannabinoids that is identified in the cannabis plant. In this article, I will specifically address, hemp-derived CBD oil from the company I am affiliated with, Hempworx and I will help guide you to learning a little more about CBD oil and why our product will be beneficial to your health. 


First and foremost, know that hemp heals and will not make you high. If you go on the tabs of this blog, you will find a section on "What is CBD" for those who are unfamiliar with the details of what CBD is. If that is you, please take a couple of minutes to read about it and then come back to this article.

Let me just say that I started taking CBD oil for various reasons. You can read about my why also in the tabs of this blog but basically, I am a living kidney donor and a brain tumor survivor. As the years passed after those surgeries, I began suffering from various symptoms including those of rheumatoid arthritis and CBD has been an enormous help to me in such a short period of time.  It may sound like a sales pitch to say it helped so quickly, but it is the honest truth.  


 CBD Oil can help you with:

  • Mental and Brain Health -full spectrum Hemp oil affects principal cannabinoid receptors in the brain promoting a healthy state of mind.
  • General Health - improves overall wellness. 
  • Healthy Balance - restores healthy balance to the endo-cannabinoid system.

Once you start taking pure CBD oil, you will feel the benefits rather quickly.  You may not notice all the relief straight-away, but as the days go by, you will begin to notice, the little things, like you have more energy, you are less edgy, less stressed, you have less pains, you begin to feel overall healthier and with more "pep in your step" without having to feel high.  I love that there is something that makes me feel better without any side effects to me and is natural! That is my best description on how CBD oil helped me. 

Please note, CBD oil is not a cure-all, but I can most definitely say (as can many others, who have similar testimonials,) that it is definitely beneficial and helps to heal your health to the point where you can function again without pain and aches, anxiety or PTSD and many other benefits to your health (including blood pressure, blood sugar levels and more.) 

A groundbreaking study from Israel has documented the superior therapeutic properties of whole plant CBD-rich cannabis extract as compared to single-molecule cannabidiol (CBD).

Hempworx CBD oil is CO2 extracted, resulting in a solvent free, pure extract. HempWorx CBD Oil comes in two strengths: HempWorx 500 and HempWorx 750. Both concentrations contain pure Hemp-derived CBD oil (which comes in original flavor, peppermint and cinnamon.) All of our products meet the "Federal Legal Limit" of 0.3% THC by dry weight.



For both products, a single serving size is 0.6 mL (or 20 drops), and there are 50 servings in each 30 mL container. The only difference is that the HempWorx ‘500’ bottle contains 10 mg of CBD oil per serving, while the ‘750’ bottle contains 15 mg per serving. The price of the 750 mg is about $20 more. Personally, I use the 500 mg Cinnamon flavor.  You can always try out a sample pack if you want to test the waters out first.

Even though it comes from marijuana plants, CBD doesn’t create a “high” effect or any form of intoxication — that’s caused by another cannabinoid, known as THC.
