CBD is the major non-psychoactive component of the Cannabis sativa L. plant. Growing research suggests that CBD benefits a wide range of conditions, including chronic pain, anxiety, nausea, epileptic seizures, inflammatory bowel disease, and many more. Additionally, there’s been much debate suggesting that CBD derived from agricultural hemp has the same properties as cannabis-derived CBD, making it a potential alternative for patients who can’t legally access medical marijuana but can legally acquire hemp-derived CBD products. We'll provide clarity and differentiation between these oil sources to better inform your understanding. Join us for this informative lecture, where you will: – Learn how CBD was discovered & its natural sources (including the differences between psychoactive THC and non-psychoactive CBD) – Discover the interactions of CBD and the human endocannabinoid system (and what that system is!) – Learn why hemp is the most eco-friendly way to balance the endocannabinoid system – Determine if agricultural hemp-derived CBD is the best option for you ABOUT THE PRESENTER | Maggie Frank With over 10 years in the Natural Products Industry, Maggie Frank has cultivated her passion for education through her extensive experience as an educator and health and wellness advocate.
