Endocannabinoid system

Every mammal - You as well!

Every mammal possesses an internal endocannabinoid system, a groundbreaking discovery made in the early 1990s, marking one of the most significant medical breakthroughs in history. The primary function of the endocannabinoid system is to promote homeostasis, ensuring our bodies can restore equilibrium when disrupted by illness or external threats. This intricate system plays a pivotal role in overseeing the regulation of numerous processes crucial for the optimal functioning of the human body.

CB1 and CB2 receptors

'Civilisation diseases'

Modern civilisation exerts a significant influence on our daily existence. We find ourselves in a perpetual whirlwind, grappling with heightened stress levels, environmental pollution, contaminated water, unhealthy dietary choices, and the omnipresence of electromagnetic radiation. Our bodies consistently grapple with a state of imbalance, often leading to what we refer to as "civilisation diseases," stemming from the disruption of our homeostasis.

The rapid and profound alterations in our external environment have disrupted our homeostasis, causing the endocannabinoid system, designed to maintain it, to occasionally falter due to its inability to keep up with the fast-paced modern lifestyle. Hence, comprehensive supplementation becomes crucial, including substances that bolster the endocannabinoid system.
This intricate system comprises unique elements:
CB1, predominantly found in the brain and various peripheral organs. CB2, primarily expressed in immune system cells.

Endocannabinoids

Our body produces that substances

Our body produces substances known as endocannabinoids to activate the cannabinoid receptors. However, in humans, the body's production of cannabinoids falls short of what is needed. Thankfully, we can address these endocannabinoid deficiencies. Research has revealed that among the myriad of natural substances, some have the ability to substitute for endocannabinoids by activating the receptors and eliciting the same effects – these are plant-based cannabinoids. As research advances, scientists have discovered individual cannabinoids in various plants, but hemp undeniably boasts the highest concentration of cannabinoids. The most well-known compounds found in hemp are THC and CBD. THC is psychoactive and its possession is prohibited in Poland, whereas CBD, lacking psychotropic properties, is a completely legal substance. It's worth noting that synthetic cannabinoids are also synthesized in the laboratories of research institutes or pharmaceutical companies. However, experience to date indicates that the therapeutic utility of these compounds is severely limited.

CBD production with supercritical CO2

"Green chemistry"

Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction is a method that allows for the acquisition of plant extracts known for their purity, all the while maintaining an environmentally friendly approach. This innovative technology is often referred to as "green chemistry" due to its capacity for extraction without resorting to harmful chemicals. Presently, it stands as the most effective means of producing extracts containing natural forms of cannabinoids.

The supercritical state of a substance is a condition wherein temperature and pressure have surpassed a critical point, leading to alterations in its physical properties. Each substance has its distinct critical point. What sets carbon dioxide apart is its ability to achieve a supercritical state at temperatures below 40°C. Additionally, carbon dioxide ensures the purity of the obtained extract. After the extraction process is complete, CO2 evaporates completely, leaving no residue, eliminating the need for further removal. This extraction method is renowned for its high selectivity, guaranteeing that no impurities are retained in the final product.

CBD

Is legal!

CBD, short for cannabidiol, is a legal and immensely significant active compound derived from hemp, renowned for its wide-ranging applications. Among all the substances present in cannabis, CBD stands out for its potent health-promoting properties. It is a completely safe component of hemp that emulates the effects of naturally occurring substances in the human body, such as those found in breast milk. Importantly, CBD hemp oil is non-psychoactive, making it a versatile therapeutic option without concerns about behavioral changes. Unlike pharmaceuticals, CBD is non-toxic and does not produce any side effects. One notable advantage is its suitability for use by individuals of all ages, including children and the elderly, as well as those dealing with severe medical conditions. Moreover, there is no risk of overdose, even with substantial doses. Fascinatingly, the beneficial effects of CBD can become apparent with remarkably small quantities.

Raw, dried hemp flowers or their extracts contain:

Our service is astonishingly thin and light.

• Cannabinoids (such as CBD, THC, CBG, CBC, CBN, CBV, and numerous others)
• Terpenes (including myrcene, limonene, pinene, caryophyllene, and many more)
• Flavonoids (like kemferol, apigenin, vitexin, isovitexin, quercitin, luteoinin, and numerous others)
• Trace elements: phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron, sodium, manganese
• Vitamins: vitamin E, thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), vitamin K
• Other substances: chlorophyll, alkanes, nitrogen compounds, amino acids, sugars, aldehydes, alcohols, ketones, glycosides, dyes, water, and hemp seed oil rich in polyunsaturated (omega) fatty acids.

Health-promoting effects

Health-enhancing effects of cannabidiol

Laboratory tests conducted thus far have revealed the numerous health-enhancing effects of cannabidiol (CBD). Some noteworthy benefits, particularly relevant in today's context, include its ability to:

• Alleviate various types of pain
• Inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria
• Mitigate symptoms of depression
• Protect cells against free radicals
• Reduce or eliminate inflammation
• Decrease seizures
• Alleviate intestinal spasms
• Reduce vasoconstriction
• Slow down cell damage in the nervous system
• Inhibit the growth of cancer cells
