What is CBD?

Simply put, CBD is short for cannabidiol, and it's

extracted from the cannabis plant.

____________________

Is CBD the same as marijuana?

Nope! CBD is not marijuana, pot, weed, or whatever else you call it.

While CBD is taken from the same plant as your THC-filled, college-experimental days, it lacks the psychoactive and mind altering effects. AKA NO, you don’t get high. Not even a little bit.

The cannabis plant is made up of two main layers: CBD and THC. You can buy full spectrum CBD or you can buy a CBD isolate (what we have with Young Living!) The difference is that CBD isolate is ONLY CBD! No THC what-so-ever. Not even trace amounts. So no, you will not get high on Young Living CBD oil, you will not have a positive drug test, and yes, it's legal in all fifty states!

Why Young Living CBD?

Cannabis is one of the most absorbent plants that exists. It absorbs everything from it's environment - pesticides, heavy metals from the soil, fluoride from it's water source, even toxins from the air. It's really important to grow it as purely as possible, which we know that Young Living does with everything.

Young Living will not grow on land that has ever been treated with pesticides. They look back at a seed's fifty year family history before using it to make sure it hasn't been "gmoed." They pay thousands and thousands of dollars to hand weed their fields, instead of paying $60 to spray some chemicals. They use oils instead of pesticides. They filter all of the water that waters their plants. They have the highest standards out there, which is why this is the cleanest, purest, and best CBD.

Also, all of Young Living's CBD is infused with essential oil! Did you know that essential oils enhance the effects of CBD? Thanks to Young Living, we have double as powerful, pure, potent CBD!

Can CBD really do all of those things? Well, after spending months and months and months researching the benefits and uses of CBD... I found all of those studies and more! Here is a list of popular uses listed in countless articles, testimonies, research, etc.

How much do I take?

Everyone is unique and like all things, it's best to start low and slow. You should plan to start at the lowest mg, lowest dose, and use it consistently before gauging how much more you may need!

Because everyone is different, you may need to step up your dosage and/or strength after 5-7 days until you’ve reached your desired goals. From my experience, starting lower is always better because you can add a higher dosage as needed!

If a person has been taking CBD for an extended period of time and not getting the results they are looking for, chances are they are not taking a high enough dose. For somebody that isn’t struggling with major inflammation, or mental health issues, a dropper at night should be enough for most people to sleep better, but occasionally

more may be needed. It’s important to experiment with your body to find out what’s right for you, and also important to give it time for your body to adjust and for the CBD to work before increasing dose!
