CBD or Cannabidiol is a compound found in both the cannabis plants: hemp and marijuana. It is merely one of hundreds of other compounds found in cannabis, most we are just learning about (exciting!).
 
"All animals, including vertebrates (mammals, birds, reptiles, and fish) and invertebrates (sea urchins, leeches, mussels, nematodes, and others) have been found to have endocannabinoid systems."
-Robert J. Silver (Published through the US Gov.)

Cannabinoids help create homeostasis within your body, balance. CBD in particular has been shown to calm over stimulated cells, reduce the inflammatory response, is a neuroprotectant and so much more.

While there are many great benefits with CBD, CBD does not cause any intoxicating effects. The commonly referred to "high" is from of THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) another compound found in cannabis. 
CBD aids with inflammation, chronic pain, discomfort, stress, and much more.

Now I am introducing more cannabinoids in my products such as CBN and CBG.

CBN is a non intoxicating cannabinoid that is formed by the degredation of THC, which is why it gives relaxing/sedative effect. This makes it an incredible tool for sleep issues.

CBG is the 'mother' cannabinoid as I like to call it. It is the compound that eventually will develop into other cannabinoids such as CBD, CBN, THC, CBC and more. CBG is incredible for pain and inflammation. I have also found it to help with anxiety as well.
