What Is CBD?

CBD is short for Cannabidiol, a naturally occurring chemical compound classified as a phytocannabinoid and found prominently in the hemp plant. CBD is a specific non-psychoactive cannabinoid that positively affects all biological systems in the body via the endocannabinoid system and is known to provide a host of health benefits for humans and animals.

Cannabinoids are a diverse class of organic chemical compounds that are naturally produced in all manner of living things. When produced within plants they are called phytocannabinoids. When produced within humans and animals they are called endocannabinoids. Our bodies contain hundreds of these endocannabinoids, which act upon our neural cell receptors (CB1 and CB2) altering the release of neurotransmitters. CB1 receptors are located mostly in the brain and CB2 receptors are spread throughout the body. Phytocannabinoids are almost identical in physical structure to endocannabinoids, which allows them to interact with the internal system that our endocannabinoids use, the endocannabinoid system or ECS.

Within our bodies there exists a complex network of receptors called the endocannabinoid system or ECS for short. This system operates throughout the body to send and receive important chemical messages for our health and for maintaining homeostasis in the body. Recent studies have shown that the ECS interacts primarily with our nervous and immune systems and is responsible for balancing and optimizing functions such as sleep, relaxation, appetite moderation, controlling inflammatory and pain responses, and enhancing cognitive abilities like mood and memory.

Our endocannabinoid system, under normal circumstances, is maintained by our healthy body’s natural ability to produce endocannabinoids. When there is a deficiency of endocannabinoids in the body due to aging or other impairing factors like stress, it affects how we feel and can become problematic for our optimal functioning. Supplementation with CBD is known to help offset this deficiency and restore optimal health.

Hemp is a variety of cannabis species, which exhibits high levels of CBD and low levels of THC (less than0- 0.3%). Conversely, marijuana contains anywhere from 5-30% THC and various amounts of CBD, CBN, THVC, and other cannabinoids. THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) is the psychoactive cannabinoid prominent in marijuana that is responsible for giving a “high.”

Although both hemp and marijuana are classified as cannabis species, their appearance, chemical composition, cultivation, and applications are entirely different. Hemp is one of the world’s oldest domesticated crops and it is seeing a resurgence after years of misconception banning it alongside its psychoactive relative, marijuana. Updated legislation worldwide has made industrial hemp available for use in over 25,000 possible applications including dietary supplementation, skin products, clothing, building materials, and accessories.

No, CBD is entirely non-psychoactive. It does not result in the feelings of euphoria associated with ingesting THC from marijuana nor does it elicit any sensation of being “high” or “stoned.” Full Spectrum CBD with NO THC is recommended.

Life  X-Cel  CBD full-spectrum tinctures are formulated using industrial hemp-derived CBD which is cultivated and processed to have 0% THC. Molecules in hemp block CB1 receptors, preventing THC from triggering them. In effect, CBD actually prevents the experience of a high. Life X-Cel CBD isolates, full spectrum tinctures, and SeaCream contain 0% THC. 

Employment drug tests are designed to detect impairment not supplementation so most tests are not designed to detect CBD but rather to detect THC. Because there are trace amounts of THC in most hemp-derived CBD products, the regular consumption of very high doses of CBD (over 1000mg/day) may trigger a false positive result. It is, however, extremely unlikely that even high doses of CBD products would exceed allowable limits of THC per milliliter of urine. Many employers in legal areas are now looking past a THC-positive test result due to an inability of standardized tests to determine impairment and due to increasing use because of legalization. Please check your local laws for details that apply to you. Some pre-surgical medical tests will test for CBD because it interacts with anesthesia. We recommend full disclosure of our product use to your medical professionals.

If trace amounts of THC are a concern for you we recommend using our CBD isolate tincture which has 0% THC.

Yes. Whether derived from hemp or marijuana, biological interactions of the CBD molecule in the human body are the same. CBD is CBD. The key to potency is the bioavailability of the CBD molecule, which is determined by two factors: size and potentiation. Life X-Cel enhanced by Vitality ensures the highest possible potency by using technology to fractionate CBD crystals into nanoparticles for significantly higher bioavailability. Our full-spectrum tinctures contain additional hemp plant compounds that further enhance the uptake of CBD, including cannabinoids and terpenes that work synergistically to affect your ECS.

Yes, taking CBD is proven to be completely safe and non-toxic assuming the hemp plant it is derived from is high quality and farmed with organic standards. Life X-Cel enhanced by Vitality CBD employs rigorous GMP standards of testing to ensure that the hemp sources for our CBD are organic and do not contain pesticides, heavy metals, microbials, or solvents.

Yes, when accurate doses are administered based on body weight and the plant source of the CBD meets high-quality microbialmicrobial standards, CBD is completely safe for pets. Life X-Cel enhanced by Vitality CBD also offers tinctures specifically formulated for animals. Please refer to our dosing chart to determine the appropriate strength and dosage to administer to children and pets.

No, CBD is not an addictive substance nor are there withdrawal symptoms upon ceasing to take it. CBD does not produce an excessive release of dopamine, therefore the euphoria associated with opioids or THC, or the relaxing effect of nicotine does not occur when taking CBD. CBD merely works to balance natural levels of neurotransmitters in the brain and nervous system. If there is an excess of one neurotransmitter, CBD will help to lower it, and if there is a deficiency of another, CBD will help to restore it back to an optimal level.

Early research suggests that developing a tolerance for CBD is theof opposite phenomenon to developing a tolerance for THC, involving what is known as a reverse tolerance. With reverse tolerance, continued use of CBD results in a continually lesser dose being needed to achieve the same effects over time. THC diminishes the effectiveness of receptors in the endocannabinoid system with repeated use. Conversely, over time, CBD promotes increased activity in these receptor cells so there is no breakdown of the interaction between CBD and the endocannabinoid system and the CBD can stay continually active without diminishing its own effectiveness. Many CBD users have reported using lower doses as time goes on to sustain their desired effects, proving to be both therapeutically and financially beneficial for them.

Cannabidiol is known to be non-toxic, with no known fatal overdose levels ever reported. Studies have shown that chronic use and high doses of up to 1,500 mg/day of CBD are well tolerated in humans. Doses exceeding this amount may, in rare cases, result in minor side effects and may interfere with the efficacy of certain medications. Always consult your physician when trying a new supplement such as CBD in your health care regimen.

At this time, we are not allowed to make outright claims about the benefits of our CBD products. We encourage you to do your own research and talk to your doctor first before starting any new nutritional and dietary supplement regimen.

However, CBD is widely known to offer many health benefits by promoting homeostasis in the body. When systems of the body are stressed, depleted or overworked, illness, pain or disorders occur. By balancing the endocannabinoid system, CBD acts to restore the optimal functioning of these systems so they can correct themselves to healthier states. Hence, CBD doesn’t heal directly rather it facilitates the body’s own sophisticated self-healing and self-regulating capacities.

Reported benefits of taking CBD include:

• improved mental health
• reduction of stress and anxiety (including PTSD)
• improved mood (calmness and tranquility)
• anti-depressant
• regulated appetite
• improved memory and alertness
• regulated sebum production for improved skin (anti-acne)
• improved gut barrier function (stabilized metabolism and healthy digestion)
• reduced nausea and vomiting
• improved sleep quality
• reduced pain and anti-inflammatory
• reduction in epileptic seizures
• inhibited cancer cell growth
• anti-bacterial effects
• supported bone growth
• neuro-protective effects
• reduced blood sugar levels
• enhanced immune function
• improved circulation
• anti-psoriasis effects
