CBD, THC and cannabinoids

What is CBD

Among the various substances present in the cannabis plant, CBD (cannabidiol) is the one that is attracting a strong interest from the pharmaceutical companies. This cannabinoid, has numerous properties. It is not psychoactive and this means that it has no psychotropic effects. CBD has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, antioxidant effects and tranquilizing, which can help in case of insomnia. CBD can be taken in different ways: by drops, capsules or by inhalation. The drops are by mixing the extract from the hemp flower and then diluted in olive oil, sesame oil, or hemp oil extracted from the seeds of the plant itself. It is administered by placing drops directly under the tongue. The advantage to assuming drops is that it can be dosed according to personal needs. CBD capsules have the advantage that they can be taken more easily without tasting the natural taste of hemp, which can be bitter or unpleasant for some people. The CBD can be inhaled via vaporizers (such as the Davinci vaporizer) where there is no combustion of the hemp flower and only the beneficial properties of the plant are inhaled. Another possibility of consuming is to directly smoke hemp flowers. All these products are available in our shop in Chiasso (Switzerland) in Via Volta 2A or through our online shop www.whynotshop.ch.
