What is CBD?

CBD or cannabidiol, is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid present in the cannabis plant along with 113 others.

When CBD enters our body, it directly activates our endocannabinoid system. This system is in charge of naturally controlling such simple, but vitally important actions: such as controlling our body temperature, appetite, memory, sleep, pain and pleasure, among others.
