Since CBD-based oils have taken their popularity by storm, you've probably had a lot of questions. What exactly is it? Does it really work?

Does it work like marijuana, and what if you get addicted? Don't worry, everyone asks themselves the same questions at first—it's completely normal!

Instead of scouring the internet for answers, we have all the most important information for you in one place – because you need more time to choose the right product than we do to convince you it's really worth it!

CBD – what is it exactly and do I really need it?

It took some time, and research is still ongoing, but scientists have discovered the endocannabinoid system (ECS) in our bodies. Its main function is to maintain homeostasis, or overall internal balance. And this isn't about zen and tranquility (although it definitely helps there too!), but rather overall well-being and physical health. Cannabinoid receptors are scattered throughout the body, although they are most abundant in the nervous system.

Unfortunately, our bodies cannot produce endocannabinoids in bulk, and there are times when we simply don't have enough of them. Therefore, it's worth replenishing these deficiencies by using CBD-based products, such as the most popular ones. CBD oils.

How does it actually work?

It's tempting to say "it's simple," but like any bodily process, it's actually quite complex. In its simplest terms, it can be said that CBD replaces the naturally occurring endocannabinoids in your body and provides a state of homoeostasis. T

It is much more important than it might seem, because the ECS system is responsible for many different processes, such as:

regulation of the body's immune responses
general well-being
appetite and metabolism
sleep quality
cardiovascular functions

Is CBD legal?

YES!

And that's completely true. Both the cultivation of hemp, from which CBD is obtained, and the sale of CBD-based products are permitted and fully legal in Poland. Much of the controversy, of course, stems from lack of appropriate knowledge and information – CBD and THC are two completely different substances. While THC has very high psychoactive effects, CBD is safe, non-addictive, and does not induce psychosis.

CBD oil dosage – what is a safe dose and can you overdose on CBD?

First, let's get one thing straight – you can't overdose on CBD. There are no studies showing that overdosing is possible or that it carries serious health consequences. If you take too much oil, you might just feel bad, that's all. Dosage, however, depends on individual needs and expectations.

The general dose used is assumed to be in the range of 10-15 mg per day.

When using CBD oil, always start with the lowest dose and gradually increase it if necessary.

So what is the optimal dose of CBD?

One where you start to feel a noticeable improvement in your overall well-being. What does this mean? Typically, the first thing you notice is improved sleep quality and a sense of inner peace. If you feel better, you've likely just found the right dose for you.
