I checked the projectcbd.org page and here is what they said about CBD extracted from industrial hemp:\n\nCBD products derived from industrial hemp potentially have several problems:\n\n1. Industrial hemp typically contains far less cannabidiol than CBD-rich cannabis strains so a huge amount of industrial hemp is required to extract a small amount of CBD. This raises the risk of contaminants as hemp is a “bio-accumulator”—meaning the plant naturally drawns toxins from the soil.\n2. Hemp-derived CBD and refined CBD powder lack critical medicinal terpenes and secondary cannabinoids found in cannabis oil. These compounds interact with CBD and THC to enhance their medicinal benefits.\n3. It’s against federal law to use hemp leaves and flowers to make drug products. Hemp oil entrepreneurs attempt to sidestep this legal hurdle by dubiously claiming they extract CBD only from hemp stalk before importing it to the United States, a grey area activity at best.\n\nPiantaTinta","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11494-markdown","title":"Is hemp cbd oil as effective for Crohns disease as real cannabis cbd oil?","slug":"is-hemp-cbd-oil-as-effective-for-crohns-disease-as-real-cannabis-cbd-oil","content":"\n_____________________\nCannabis helps to relieve anxiety and promotes sleep. Because of your use of valium your brain is adjusted to it and it will take time for it to reset without the valium. This uncomfortable feeling will be unavoidable while you body detoxes and resets. During this time marijuana provides some relief and comfort. Cannabis will not totally relieve your discomfort but it helps. I used marijuana to get off Heroin and Methadone. The entire process took a good 6 months of no opiates until I started to feel normal. Edibles from 100 mg to 300 mg are what I recommend though I am not a doctor. Use an Indica or Hybrid strain over a Sativa as it promotes sleep better. There is no overdose on marijuana. If 300 mg is to much for you you will only sleep. Its what I did at age 56. At age 63 I am better than ever now thanks to marijuana.\n\neltone\n_____________________\nI would say no - the general consensus from both the cannabis community and medical researchers indicates that hemp-based CBD is much less effective as a medication than cannabis-based CBD. This is likely due to something know as the entourage effect, in which the presence of cannabinoids and terpenes found in cannabis are believed to positively impact the therapeutic efficacy of CBD even if they aren't present in large amounts. While those in the cannabis industry have seen this to be true anecdotally, medical researchers (especially from nations other than ours) are also seeing the implications of the entourage effects in formal studies.\n\njessicapeters","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11473-markdown","title":"The Right Dosage of CBD ?","slug":"the-right-dosage-of-cbd","content":"\"I recently had a consult to get my ID card and during the consult we talked about CBD spray or drops 2x a day. Living in a non-friendly state - all I can get are Hemp based drops Plus CBD Oil ( https://pluscbdoil.com/cbd-products/cbd-oil-spray/pluscbd-oil-spray/) seems to be the best. I am getting the 500mg strength - Recommended Dosage is 2 sprays twice a day (They say that is about 3mg of CBD) ? The is primarily for PTSD and Diabetes (2 separate people). Thanks\n\"\n_____________________\nCBD or cannabidiol works differently than THC. CBD increases our own natural cannabinoid levels (endocannabinoids), without actually binding to the CB1 or CB2 receptors. In conjunction with the other components in a cannabis whole plant extract, It seems to help stabilize many of our homeostatic functions. Basically CBD, THC and other compounds in cannabis work with our endocannabinoid system to help bring it back to equilibrium. Im sorry that I cannot comment directly on specific products. But I would start with a small dose, observe for results, and increase the dose until the desired results are achieved. There is no danger in taking very high doses of cannabis products. However, as with other plant derived extracts and concentrated products, quality and purity can vary significantly. Take caution and proceed with care.\n\nandrewvanmd","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11402-markdown","title":"I was prescribed a high cbd/ low thc drops.

You need to find what they call a tincture, and it will have a ratio of thc to CBD right on the from of the bottle.\n\ncannabear\n_____________________\nCannaBear is correct, you need to find out how much CBD and how much THC is in a product. It should be listed on the label in mg/ml. Find a tincture that is made from a cannabis strain that is high in CBD and low in THC. Beware of products that do not list their ingredients or mg/ml of cannabinoids on the label. Industrial hemp does have some CBD but is not the best source and industrial hemp also may contain contaminants...can they show testing results for their products? Just some things to think about....\n\nPiantaTinta","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11362-markdown","title":"HIGH CBD vape or edible to order online.","slug":"high-cbd-vape-or-edible-to-order-online","content":"\"I've been living in SoCal that last 9 years and received my card from HelloMD just last year. I've moved back to Ohio temporarily to get surgery and heal from automobile accident I was in back in February. Thankfully they've just passed medical marijuana here I believe just last month, however, it will take a month or so for it to go into effect. I was purchasing and taking the Kushy Punch chews which contained 60mg of CBD. I have to say - it showed incredible results for my anxiety and mild-depression without the psychoactive effects - EXACTLY what I need/wanted. It would help even greater now given the medical condition from the car accident I am in. \n\nProblem being is I'm pretty sure this was CBD from Cannabis, not Hemp. As hemp has extreme health benefits, from everything that I've read and the research I've done, it's significantly different than the cannabis strains. You really have to be careful when ordering CBD online because its easy to purchase something that is false and may or may not even be CBD. \n\nSince CBD is legal in all 50 states and I'm unfortunately not in SoCal at the moment, I'm looking to see if anyone can recommend a HIGH CBD vape or edible that may be the equivalent to what I was taking in LA that you can order online, has the same benefits (or greater) and is WORTH the purchase. I realize there are a lot of scam companies and I've come here to seek any fellow humans who also take CBD and who may have recommendations online. \n\nlove and light~\n\n\"\n_____________________\nGreat question and depending on who you ask and who you are as a person, the answer could vary wildly. Personally, I have not found that CBD products from hemp have nearly the benefit or effect as CBD from cannabis. I am always on the lookout for high CBD/low THC products as I feel the same effects that you mentioned and I think the combination of cannabinoids, which create the 'entourage effect', are what is responsible for a better outcome.\n\nIt is also true you need to be careful as to what you purchase not just because the quantity of high grade CBD can vary wildly but also because hemp is often unregulated, especially if your hemp product comes from China.\n\nThat said, the brand Evoxe, carries a high CBD pen that is from hemp. They also have a new CBD pen with THC which is great. You can find their business listing on our site:\n\nhttps://www.hellomd.com/biz/evoxe-laboratories\n\nYou may also try Auntie Dolores as I believe they just released a new high CBD brownie which is derived from hemp. I am not entirely sure, but I believe it to be so.\n\nhttps://www.hellomd.com/biz/auntie-dolores\n\nI am not a doctor and this represents only my opinion. I hope it helps!\n\npamelahadfield","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11351-markdown","title":"How is this extracted from hemp?","slug":"how-is-this-extracted-from-hemp","content":"\"What extraction process/method is used to extract the CBD from hemp? \n\nGlad to see you only use medicinal grade hemp, however, it's still against federal law (see: Controlled Substances Act  21 USC § 802(16)) to extract anything from the flowers of the hemp plant. Which is what leads me to wonder where all of these products which contain hemp-derived CBD actually obtain said CBD, seeing as the cannabinoid CBD is produced solely within the resinous glands on the flowers of the plant, leaving behind merely traces, if anything, upon the legally-usable parts of the plant.\n\nBeyond that, I have to ask, why use hemp? There's plenty of high-CBD, low-THC strains of cannabis available with a much richer, more diverse profile of cannabinoids. I would think it would take pounds and pounds of hemp stalks and seeds just to get an ounce of CBD oil, and then who knows what else you're getting. (Let's not forget hemp is a bio-accumulator)\n\nOf course, I know the answer to that last one, asking \"why hemp?\" is because it's legal and you can then ship it to other states, make more money, etc.\"\n_____________________\nThanks for your question and yes, there is a lot of confusion around hemp vs. cannabis.\n\nThe hemp we are using is from Colorado, and is actually a strain of cannabis that is a cross between Harlequin and AC/DC, with further refinement to remove the THC.  It has been classified as hemp due to its very low THC content, which is below the .3% allowed for interstate shipments.  \n\nThe extraction method used is a CO2 extraction process. It is not comparable to hemp extraction which does use enormous amounts of seed and stalk to extract.  It is the full plant extract and contains all the rich terpenes and cannabinoids one would like to provide for their pets.\n\nFurthermore, this unique hemp is registered as medicinal grade hemp because it is specifically grown for medicine and is not industrial in nature.  It is tested for and free of heavy metals and bio-contaminants.\n\nWe do not use cannabis strains higher in THC for two reasons: they contain above the .3% legal for interstate activity and we have dogs all over the US using this product who we would not be able to care for  if we used cannabis strains higher in THC.  Additionally, it is not advised to give dogs more THC than this amount due to the abundant receptors in their brains, their heightened sensitivity, and their propensity for experiencing static ataxia due to toxic levels of THC.\n\njuliannacarella","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11279-markdown","title":"What is hemp?","slug":"what-is-hemp","content":"\n_____________________\nThis is a common question and causes a lot of confusion. Hemp is actually still cannabis but it is of different genetic stock. Cannabis/marijuana has a higher THC content than hemp and typically hemp has a THC content of lower than .3%. It may be slightly higher, but it would never get you stoned. Hemp does however contain cannabidiol (CBD) and other cannabinoids. Hemp can be bred for industrial uses such as clothing or for medicine. Cannabis/marijuana and hemp are typically cultivated in a different way. They also have different legal statuses depending on where you are. There is a lot of debate about whether hemp can offer the same medicinal benefits as cannabis/marijuana. Most people in the industry seem to agree that the whole flower plant from cannabis/marijuana with THC and a full spectrum of cannabinoids offer a much more powerful medicine. That said, hemp is a very valuable crop which can translate into so many different material goods that most people that are pro legalization for cannabis/marijuana are also pro legalization for hemp.\n\nI hope this helps!\n\npamelahadfield","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11160-markdown","title":"Why are these made from hemp and not cannabis?","slug":"why-are-these-made-from-hemp-and-not-cannabis","content":"\n_____________________\nThe FDA of the United States considers hemp oil (and it’s derivative CBD) to be a dietary supplement (not a medication), since they are made from industrial hemp plants.\n\nIf you live in the US, this means you don’t need a prescription and can legally purchase and consume Cannabidiol in any state.\n\nCannabidiol from industrial hemp also has the added benefit of having virtually no THC. It is not possible to get “high” with these products.\n\nIf you live in the US, the legal status is clear. Cannabidiol made from industrial hemp is legal to purchase and consume in any state. However, if you obtain Cannabidiol from medical marijuana, you must be located in a state in which medical marijuana has been legalized.\n\ndrpinto\n_____________________\nTHC is a psychotropic cannabinoid found in Marijauna that can be toxic to dogs.  It is the THC in Marijauna that the DEA considers a Schedule 1 controlled substance.   \n\nHemp contains nearly no THC and high amounts of CBD and other helpful cannabinoids.  \n\nThe CBD in Treatibles is derived from Hemp that is grown for medicinal purposes.  It is 100% legal and can be purchased in any state or over the internet.   We make Treatibles from medicine grade Hemp rather than Marijuana because it is a legal and safer option for your pet.\n\nFor more information:  http://www.compassioncenter.net/marijuana-and-pets/\n\nlisag","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10918-markdown","title":"Is the rectal usage of Hemp Oil - any good?","slug":"is-the-rectal-usage-of-hemp-oil-any-good","content":"\"Rectal usage of Hemp Oil / Rick Simpson Oil (with high THC) is recommended a lot because of various advantages (higher absorption and lesser high). Because of these advantages, my brother in law is taking the oil now via 'the back door' since he has stage 4 cancer. \n\nThough recommended on some sites, I also read on another side that some research has been done and that actually THC Delta 9 does not get absorbed by rectal usage (see the following link http://www.greenbridgemed.com/rectal-absorption-of-cannabinoids/#comment-19565)\n\nThe MD on this forum first claims that rectal usage is great, however later on he advises that indeed rectal administration does not work. \n\nSince we are fighting cancer, we would like to know for sure if rectal usage is advised or not. \n\nIf you could advise, that would be great!!\n\nRegards, \n\nRobbert Roelofsen\"\n_____________________\nYes cannabis can be absorbed rectally. I do not have experience with this method of cannabis administration, but many people are talking about the benefits of rectal cannabis.

Absorption begins in the mucous membranes and continues in the digestive system.

Or perhaps you are asking where can you find hemp where it has been lab tested. If you are looking to take hemp you have for lab testing there are many cannabis laboratories throughout California including Steep Hill Labs, SC Labs, CW Analytical and more. As an individual you can always bring samples to labs for testing to ensure the purity of a product or to see all the potential nasty chemicals which could be inside!\n\nIf you are asking where to find lab tested hemp oil, I would not know the answer. For the most part, dispensaries are the ones that do lab testing on full spectrum cannabis products with THC, and even then you are not assured of what pesticides they have tested for. Many companies claim to have tested their products, including hemp, but again, without government regulations, you are having to trust their word for it. I would say you would be better off buying hemp products that are made from hemp from either Canada or Europe as the hemp from China is treated with harsh chemicals.\n\nIf you want to be absolutely sure, buy a product and have it tested yourself!\n\nHope this helps.\n\npamelahadfield","image":null}}]}},"pageContext":{"limit":12,"skip":48,"numPages":6,"currentPage":5,"id":5334,"name":"Hemp","slug":"hemp","country":"US"}},"staticQueryHashes":["3949754563","4179947113","4202924991"]}
