What is CBD?

Writer's picture: Cortney DayCortney Day

CBD(Cannabidiol) is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid. Cannabinoids are chemicals found in cannabis.

CBD or Cannabidiol, is a Cannabis compound that interacts with the body’s Endocannabinoid system (ECS). ECS is a series of receptors that promote homeostasis, or equilibrium in the body. Its interaction with receptors in the central nervous system and immune system can offer medicinal benefits. CBD is primarily found in the flowers and leaves of Hemp and Marijuana plants. BARA Naturals CBD is extracted from the highest-quality and best-sourced Hemp.

CBD effects on the endocannabinoid system are very different from other classic phytocannabinoids like THC. Instead of stimulating your ECS (and potentially overstimulating it), CBD modifies CB1 receptors so that they are harder to stimulate and over-stimulate. CBD also helps boost your natural levels of endocannabinoids this is accomplished by inhibiting their reuptake and degradation. This binary activity of CBD on the endocannabinoid system, as well as countless other benefits on other systems (like serotonin and pain receptors) has a balancing effect for many people.
