WHY HEMP? (legal MEDICAL MARIJUANA)

Cannabis sativa (Cannabis sativa L.) is a species of plant in the Cannabaceae family . Depending on the systematic approach, the only representative of the monotype of hemp (Cannabis Linnaeus, Sp. Pl. 1027. 1 Mai 1753) or one of several separate species. It is found in the Altai Mountains, Tienshan Mountains, as well as in the Caucasus and Afghanistan. As a cultivated plant widespread in different parts of the world. In Poland, it can go wild and occur as an ephemerophyte (hemp) or kenophyte (wild hemp) occupying ruderal habitats.

Use of hemp

Hemp is used to produce fibers  of versatile use:

• clothing industry – hemp clothes are light, airy, breathable and durable.
• automotive industry – hemp fibers have been tested as an ingredient used in the manufacture of car bodies . Vehicles m.in hemp were produced by Ford in 1941^[13] and Lotus Cars^[14].
• boatbuilding – until the end of the nineteenth century, 70% of the rigging of all ships was made of hemp fibers.
• building materials – Pakuły (fiber) (hemp hyphae) is successfully used as ecological insulation of houses and sealing threaded connections.
• papermaking – the first paper created in China was made of hemp fibers. The production of paper from hemp is much more efficient than the production of wood paper.

Hemp seeds and oil pressed from them are also of versatile use:

• Food industry – hemp oil and seeds are valued for their high nutritional value.
• Production of biodiesel – diesel oil can be successfully produced from hemp oil.

Hemp can also be successfully produced  for fuel biomass.

Due to the content of many medicinal substances, hemp is used as an anxiolytic, analgesic, antipsychotic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antispasmodic and as antibiotics.

CBD 

CBD (cannabidiol) is a cannabinoid found naturally in hemp. Vegetable cannabinoids are insoluble in water, they dissolve only in fats and alcohols and other non-polar organic solvents. CBD belongs to more than 85 cannabinoids that we can find in hemp. Products containing CBD are available in the form of a liquid, thick oil or paste (higher concentrations of CBD). CBD does not have psychoactive properties unlike the famous THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol), which is why it can be used in 100% by virtually everyone. The most CBD can be found in hemp (Cannabis sativa subsp. sativa), THE concentration of THC does not exceed 0.2%, which is why these products are legal in Poland and the EU. 

How does CBD work?

CBD acts on cannabinoid receptors located on the surface of cells. Two cannabinoid receptors found in the human body have been distinguished: CB-1 (CNR1) which can affect, for example, pain perception or increase appetite and CB-2 (CNR2) which affects the regulation of the immune response process. 

CBD works very similarly to the cannabinoid, which is naturally produced by our body, supporting its various functions. Interest in CBD hemp oil is constantly increasing. Every day there are more and more publications on this subject.

Research on the use of CBD

The Food and Drug Administration obtained a patent from the U.S.  federal government in 2003 for the use of the cannabinoid CBD to treat inflammation and neurodegenerative disorders. Currently, research is being conducted by the agencies to produce drugs that contain CBD to help children with a rare form of epilepsy. Due to the lack of extensive clinical trials (many people talk about the pharmaceutical lobby), state regulations prohibit the use of CBD as a drug, which is why a preparation containing CBD appears in stores as food oils/pastes, or natural dietary supplements.

Effects of CBD

Patent US6630507 of 2003 indicates the ability of CBD (cannabidiol) to have antiepileptic effects, lower intraocular pressure in the treatment of glaucoma, no toxicity and no serious side effects even at high doses, neuroprotective properties, the ability to suppress glutamate toxicity, the ability to protect against cell damage, the ability to protect against ischemic brain damage, anxiolytic action and its powerful properties antioxidants, which can be used in the prevention and treatment of diseases associated with free radicals - such as ischemic reperfusion damage, inflammatory diseases, systemic lupus erythematosus, myocardial infarction, cerebral vascular accidents (such as thromboembolism or hemorrhagic stroke), Down syndrome, Crohn's disease, autoimmune diseases (for example, rheumatoid arthritis), cataracts , uveitis, emphysema, stomach ulcers, neoplasia, undesirable cellular apoptosis, radiation sickness, particular attention should be paid to the use for the prevention, retention or treatment of neurological damage in Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, HIV-induced dementia. CBD is also used in drug therapies of alcoholism, diabetes, asthma, epilepsy, leukemia, migraine headaches, boredom and vomiting, reduces pain from spinal injuries and multiple sclerosis. It should be remembered that all studies still need to be confirmed and extensive clinical trials, but despite this, there is a huge potential of this substance.

Drops are an easy way to dose and consume CBD oil. The human body absorbs oil faster in liquid form compared to pastes.

Hemp pastes Endoca are known for their consistency and unique fragrance.
Choose pastes from: 20% tube (dark gold color) or filtered versions 30% and 50% (radiant colors golden).

Product selection: Most people are happy to start using products with low-percentage oils, e.g. 3 or 4% and use a phased dose increase called titration. The Hemp Store recognizes that an approach based on traditional upward titration is the right method for the consumption of hemp products.

Up Titration and Dosage: What is it and what dose do I need?   Up titration is a proven, true and traditional way to increase the dose. Gradual dose escalation shall be used until satisfactory results are obtained. You can also reduce the dosage to the previous level if there are side effects. In this way, everyone can individually work out their optimal dose of hemp product appropriate to their needs.

Medicinal products from cultivated hemp are called CBD HEMP OILS. Available from 3% CBD to up to 50% CBD. Concentrations of 20%,30%,40%,50% CBD are in the form of CBD HEMP PASTES.

A wide range of high-quality hemp products available in our online store: CBD oil, hemp paste and much more.
