HEMP OIL 101
WHAT IS CBD?
CANNABIDIOL (CBD)
Cannabidiol is one of over 100 naturally occurring and active chemical compounds found in hemp. CBD is non-intoxicating and can directly affect your endocannabinoid system.
WHAT DOES IT DO?
CBD interacts with the body’s Endocannabinoid System (ECS), which is recognized as an important modulatory system of the brain, endocrine, and immune systems.
Endocannabinoids and their receptors are found throughout the brain, organs, tissues, and immune cells. They influence a variety of physiological systems and are a bridge between the body and mind.
When the body does not produce enough endocannabinoids or cannot regulate them properly, negative symptoms appear.
Adding CBD to your diet can help restore and maintain optimal balance.

What is the Difference Between Hemp & Marijuana?

MARIJUANA - Naturally contains low levels of CBD and low levels of THC
THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) - The intoxicating chemical compound responsible for the "high"

Reed's Remedies Premium Ingredients
Steam-distilled hemp CBD
Steam distillation is the purest way to collect the full spectrum of therapeutic compounds found in hemp, including CBD. This process also activates the molecules, which makes them fast-acting. So you can get back to being you - quickly!
TERPENES
Terpenes are found in all plants and are responsible for their smell and taste, but also have their own therapeutic attributes. There are over 100 terpenes found in hemp and are the molecules that directly affect how CBD makes us feel.
MEDIUM CHAIN TRIGLYCERIDES
MCT is a saturated fatty acid derived from coconut oil and has numerous health benefits. It is easily absorbed into the body making it the ideal carrier oil for CBD.
Entourage Effect
All of these ingredients work in synergy to create what scientists refer to as the "entourage effect." Reed's Remedies uses advanced hemp science to carefully formulate our CBD wellness products, which have consistent and predictable effects.
