Frequently Asked Questions
What is CBD?
CBD (Cannabidiol) is a type of cannabinoid, which is a chemical found in the cannabis plant. Unlike THC, CBD does not have any psychoactive effects, meaning it will not make you high. CBD is thought to have a range of health benefits, including reducing anxiety and pain, as well as inflammation. CBD can be used in a variety of ways, including oil drops, capsules, and even topical creams. So, if you're looking for a natural way to improve your health, CBD might be worth a try!

Where do I start with CBD and dosage?
We have a variety of curated collections to choose from, or you can always take our quiz. We recommend giving any new CBD routine at least 5-7 days of daily, consistent usage and journal to keep track of your results! From there, we encourage our members to set up a call with one of our Dosage Specialists who will help you personalize your daily routine, unique to your needs! With full-spectrum CBD, we are looking to find your minimum effective daily dosage that delivers therapeutic benefits – so we’ll work together to slowly increase the dose, only when we need to!
Keep in mind that CBD is not used to treat any specific conditions; instead, CBD can be used to address the symptoms of conditions by amplifying your body’s balancing and healing properties! Everyone’s body chemistry is different so there’s no one-size-fits-all dose or routine with CBD. Start low, go slow and journal to keep track of your daily doses along with your results!
Why is routine so important?
CBD works with your own body’s processes, most notably – your Endocannabinoid System (or ECS). In order for CBD to effectively support this system (so that YOU can experience the benefits) sticking with a daily, consistent routine is KEY. Similarly to how certain vitamins or supplements should be taken every day for optimal results – the same applies to CBD!
CBD is lipophilic (or fat soluble), which means it compounds in your body over time, adding to potential health benefits. This also means that we tend to see gradual improvements rather than an overwhelming impact straight away. It takes time for our bodies to adjust to CBD being around, and even longer for the maximized benefits to present!
When CBD is taken daily and consistently, you may be surprised to experience benefits beyond your initial “health goals”. For example, maybe you started taking CBD to help you wind down after a long work day and find that you’re also beginning to feel more focused or your mood is balancing out!
How should I store my CBD?
CBD should be stored in a cool, dark place to preserve its potency and freshness. CBD oil may become cloudy or thick over time, but this will not affect its quality or effectiveness. CBD products can also be stored in the refrigerator or freezer to extend their shelf life. When storing CBD products in the fridge or freezer, be sure to label them clearly so that they are not mistaken for food. CBD products should always be stored out of reach of children and pets. For CBD products that come in contact with skin, such as lotions or balms, it is best to store them in a cool, dry place to prevent the CBD from degrading due to exposure to light or heat.
Is CBD safe for my pet?
Yes, cannabidiol is safe for pets. CBD and hemp have been used to help animals for quite a long time. Since it doesn’t have any psychoactive effects, it’s a natural way to relieve your pet of any pain or discomfort.
