Answers

1. Yes…as long as it is
   1. 100% pure CBD Oil with no THC (the psychoactive chemical in marijuana)
   2. Grown without pesticides (hemp soaks up everything in the soil)
2. The Endocannabinoid System (ECS) regulates processes in the body such as appetite, pain, mood, memory, peripheral nervous system, and more.
   1. Endocannabinoids and their receptors are found throughout the body: in the brain, organs, connective tissues, glands, and immune cells. In each tissue, the cannabinoid system performs different tasks, but the goal is always the same: homeostasis.
      1. Homeostasis in a general sense refers to stability or balance in a system. It is the body’s attempt to maintain a constant internal environment. Maintaining a stable internal environment requires constant monitoring and adjustments as conditions change.
      2. Here’s an example, when we become stressed our mind releases Cortisol. Cortisol can be helpful when we need to react quickly to a dangerous situation–fight or flight.
3. If you get a CBD Oil that has no THC then it will not get you high.
4. CBD Oil has helped
   1. Pain Relief
   2. Reduce anxiety and depression
   3. Alleviate cancer related symptoms
   4. Might help with neurological disorders like MS and epilepsy
   5. Benefit heart health
5. The only company that you should look at is Nature’s Ultra, they follow Young Living’s Seed to Seal ® standards. They are also infused with Young Living Essential Oils to help the CBD get absorbed in the body even better.
   1. Most other CBD companies use mostly vegetable oils and sugar with very little CBD
