Cannabidiol (CBD) is the powerful, legal and natural derivative of the hemp and cannabis plant that is taking the world by storm and widely considered a “miracle supplement”. The cannabis plant contains about 85 cannabinoids, the chemical compounds responsible for the way marijuana effects users, with the two most widely discussed being CBD and THC. Cannabinoids play a vital role in the human body which has endocannabinoid receptors located throughout it. These receptors comprise what is known as our endocannabinoid systems and are stimulated (whether by external cannabinoids or the ones already within us), they work to maintain homeostasis.
While tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is what’s responsible for cannabis’ psychoactive properties, cannabidiol (CBD) is non-psychoactive and, based on the current research available and user testimonials, offers an array of therapeutic benefits ranging from cancer prevention and treatment to pain relief.
Based on currently available research CBD appears to be nothing short of miraculous – a great, natural alternative for pharmaceuticals used to treat a host of diseases. The following factoids were curated from the top cannabidiol studies:

Hemp CBD isolate is cannabidiol in its purest form possible making it the most powerful form of CBD currently available.
CBD isolate is the extraction of CBD from the cannabis plant so that the subsequent product is pure. Unwanted plant material is removed from the extraction, leaving a concentrated CBD isolate, which amplifies the healing properties of the cannabinoid.
Consuming isolate (as opposed to smoking a high CBD strain of cannabis) yields one higher concentrations of CBD in smaller amounts, making it a great medicine for those who need it.
CBD products are produced one of two places, medical cannabis or industrial hemp plants. While still illegal under federal law, cannabis is legal in several states but because it has a low THC content (>.3%), industrial hemp does not fall under these same regulations. This allows consumers to purchase and use CBD as a natural supplement without worrying about any legal repercussions.
Many cannabis users who are solely interested in the medicinal value of marijuana find CBD isolate products to be extremely appealing and effective.
