I am BEYOND impressed with your product and feel the need to let others know! My friend recommended I try Medterra CBD or my sore joints. It made me feel 10 years younger! The product shipped quickly and I love how the dropper allows you to measure out the appropriate dosage. CBD works and Medterra is the BEST! -Loradell

Love this stuff

1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf

CBD is such an awesome compound and being able to apply it directly to my problem areas takes it to a new level. It smells really good too. As a recommendation, start small and work your way up. These are big bottles and can go a long way. -Page Lynn

Relief from Spinal Stenosis

Medterra has worked wonders on my husband’s arthritis pain and nerve pain from spinal stenosis. We are using the tincture and cream each day. He is Pain-FREE! – Julie N.

A+++++

1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf

I typically don’t write reviews but I had to share. A friend recommended I try CBD and I went with Medterra because of their affiliation with a pilot program (it felt safe!!). My arthritis pain is bothersome and Aleve was the only thing that worked. After 1 week taking the 50mg pill I am off Aleve and feeling better than ever! I love that it is a natural product and is healthier than my prescribed medications. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! -Anne G.

Zero THC – Great results!

1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf

I wanted to take CBD for a while but can’t take THC because of work. The 1500mg tincture has worked wonders for my stiffness and I sleep like a rock! So grateful for this WONDERFUL product! – Gina Francis

Happy customer – Arthritis Relief

1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf

Excellent product! Effective and pleasing to the touch. Works well for arthritic pain! Fair price also! -BettyAnn Southard

So far, so good! Improved Mobility

1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf

I was a little skeptical to start since I had not heard much about Medterra. Well, I can verify that this CBD is the real deal. I have no doubt about the potency and they are either putting in a little extra CBD or the previous products I had tried were not nearly as pure. I really started feeling a difference around day 3 after taking the 25mg capsule each morning. As an older man, I cannot begin to tell you how much better my mobility has improved. Thanks Medterra! -Steve V.

Works great with sports therapy

1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf 1 Leaf

After a recent running injury, my right hip flexor has been incredibly tight. I have been going to weekly sports therapy, which is working well. To aid in relaxing my leg, I use the pain cream every morning and night. I feel like it “unlocks” my leg and the range of motion improves dramatically. My only wish is that it would last longer so I only had to apply once a day! -Steven Smith

Different CBD Methods: Pros and Cons

by Jesse Dunn
written by Jesse Dunn

By now, you may have probably already heard about cannabidiol, better known as CBD. It’s the non-intoxicating cousin of THC that can offer all of the potential benefits of the cannabis plant without any of the high.

It comes from industrial hemp, and has recently become federally legal thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill. That’s great news for people who want to reap the inflammation fighting, sleep regulating, and immune system supporting benefits of CBD.

While the variety of CBD products and brands currently on the market means CBD users get a wide option to choose from, it can also be overwhelming.

To help in that decision-making process, we’re going to be talking about some of the most popular CBD oil products, how they differ from one another, and which method might work best for you.

Topicals

If what you’re looking for is targeted, fast-acting relief, topical CBD is a great choice.

cbdMD offers two different topical products – each with its special blend of CBD and other inflammation and pain-reducing compounds.

The first, cbdMD Freeze, combines the cooling comfort of menthol with the all-natural power of CBD to soothe sore joints and muscles within minutes.

It comes in a convenient, easy-to-use roller that makes application a breeze, and everyone from nursing homes to professional athletes endorses it – so you know it’s good.

They also offer Recover – designed to target inflammation. It combines a unique blend of arnica for white blood cell stimulation, vitamin B6 for reducing inflammation, MSM for reinvigorating cell walls, and cbdMD’s high-quality CBD.

Tinctures

Tinctures are perhaps the most versatile methods of taking CBD. They come in a variety of flavors and concentrations which gives you complete control over your CBD experience.

Where topicals will only work on the application site, tinctures allow the beneficial effects of CBD to reach the whole body. To take, simply place under the tongue and feel the effects in no time (most will experience overall benefits within 30-60 minutes).

With a variety of flavors like orange, mint, berry, and natural, there’s something for everyone to love.

Gummies and capsules

If you’d like to get the same full-body effects of CBD tinctures, but want the convenience of a pre-portioned dose, cbdMD’s gummies and capsules may be the perfect option for you.

If you’ve never taken CBD before and are unsure about dosage, gummies and capsules are an easy way to add CBD to your morning and evening routines – all with the dosage guesswork taken out of the equation.

Capsules are a no-frills way to get your daily dose of CBD and are great if you’re already used to taking pills.

However, if you’d like to add a little extra flavor to your regimen, gummies are the way to go.

They come in a 30-count bottle with a tasty mix of tropical, strawberry, mixed berry, and orange flavors.

CBD PM

CBD PM is the newest addition to cbdMD’s product line. It offers all the benefits of CBD combined with the sleep-promoting effects of melatonin and a whole host of other natural and herbal supplements.

This unique combination allows CBD to help regulate your body, leading to an overall improvement in sleep quality, while the melatonin, valerian root, chamomile, and other herbs help you fall asleep fast and stay asleep longer.

Simply take CBD PM 30 minutes before bed, and let it ease you into a deep, restful night’s sleep.

Here’s one more tip to make bedtime even more relaxing: take a hot, relaxing bath with one of our CBD bath bombs. By combining 100 mg of CBD with a proprietary blend of therapeutic ingredients in each bath bomb, these will help melt away those aches and pains that can make it hard to sleep at night.

CBD for pets

While you’re trying out all the different forms of CBD to find the perfect product for you, don’t forget about your furry family members. Everyone knows that our pets get anxious, stressed, and feel pain just like we do, so shouldn’t they get the same all-natural CBD relief?

At cbdMD, they seem to think so! That’s why their CBD-infused pet products are a tasty way to get the relief they need – and deserve.

The peanut butter-flavored tinctures and treats will have your puppy drooling for more.

And for the cat lovers, there’s a calming catnip-flavored tincture to mellow out your feline friends. Did we also mention that all pet products are made with human-grade ingredients and come in a variety of strengths?

So if you’re looking for a leader in premium CBD oil that knows how to deliver natural relief at unremarkable prices, look no further than cbdMD. No matter how you choose to take your daily dose of all-natural CBD, cbdMD has you covered from head to tail.

CBD and Chronic Pain: A Better Way to Relief

by Jesse Dunn
written by Jesse Dunn

It’s normal to have a few bumps and bruises from time to time, but when those bumps become nagging injuries, it can put a serious dent in your quality of life.

Whether it’s a bad back, old injury, or illness-induced pain, it’s all equally hard to deal with when it goes on for more than a few days.

When this happens, it may become what’s known as “chronic pain.” To qualify as chronic pain, it needs to have lasted more than 12 weeks. While it can affect anyone, seniors deal with chronic pain the most.

Chronic pain, chronic problem

According to an Australian study, over 50% of seniors in retirement communities suffer from chronic pain – and that number skyrockets to 80% in nursing homes. This study is what makes finding an effective and safe way to deal with chronic pain so important.

But because chronic pain is such a broad term, it makes it difficult to treat.

Finding something that works for everyone can be nearly impossible since there’s no “right” answer when it comes to proper pain management.

The most common options for chronic pain sufferers are over-the-counter and prescription painkillers. However, those with chronic pain often build up a tolerance to traditional pain medications, putting them at risk for things like liver failure or opiate addiction.

Because of this, safe alternatives for relieving the symptoms of chronic pain are vital.

A different way to deal with pain

Luckily, there is an all-natural way to help fight chronic pain: CBD. And thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, it’s now federally legal in the United States.

Cannabidiol, or CBD, is one of more than 116 cannabinoids found in the hemp plant.

Unlike its well-known, infamous cousin, THC, CBD will NOT get you high. Because hemp-derived CBD comes from hemp plants containing less than 0.3% THC (the high-inducing cannabinoid), there is no associated high.

CBD works by activating your endocannabinoid system (ECS), which is responsible for maintaining homeostasis. This network is what helps keep all of the body’s systems, like the nervous, digestive, and circulatory systems, well-balanced and working properly.

The ECS has receptors throughout your body, and in addition to regulating things like sleep and digestion, it also plays a role in how the body responds to pain.

Because of this, CBD can interact with the ECS to help get things back on track and keep chronic pain at bay.

A 2016 study suggests that deficiencies in the ECS may even cause some forms of chronic pain, which shows just how important of a role it plays in our health.

Regularly taking CBD has been linked to reduced inflammation and is an easy way to give your ECS the boost it needs not only to combat pain, but to help relieve things like anxiety, sleeplessness, and digestive issues.

But with so many different ways to take CBD, it can be difficult to decide on the method that’s best for you. That’s why cbdMD is here to help!

How to reap the benefits of CBD

Just like each person is unique, so is each method of getting CBD into your body.

Depending on where you feel pain and what your specific needs are, there are many different options from which to choose.

For those with stiff joints, aching muscles, or inflammation, cbdMD offers two different CBD topicals that are a great way to get fast-acting relief right where you need it most.

The first, CBD Freeze, combines cooling comfort with the feel-good effects of CBD, while our Recover inflammation formula adds CBD to a mixture of arnica for white blood cell stimulation, vitamin B6 for reducing inflammation, and MSM for reinvigorating cell walls.

Another way to melt the stress and pain away is by adding CBD bath bombs to a warm tub.

However, if you’d rather get your CBD in more traditional forms, there are things like tinctures, capsules, and gummies that may perfect for any situation.

CBD oil tinctures are an easy and effective way to get the full-body effects of CBD. They come in a wide range of sizes, strengths, and flavors and can be taken by simply placing a few drops under the tongue, allowing you to vary the dosage to fit your needs easily.

There’s even a CBD PM tincture infused with CBD, melatonin, and other herbal remedies that eases you to sleep while also fighting pain and inflammation.

However, if you’d like to get your CBD in a more familiar form, CBD oil capsules provide the same benefits as tinctures in a recognizable pill that you can easily add to your morning and evening routines.

And for a fun, flavorful twist on capsules, try CBD gummies. They’re made with all-natural ingredients and are perfect whenever you need a potent dose of CBD.

No matter how you choose to take your CBD, it can potentially change the way you view pain management. Because of its important job in supporting the ECS, the possibilities are endless for this once-unknown cannabinoid.

What You Should Know When Buying High Quality CBD Products

by Jesse Dunn
written by Jesse Dunn

Thanks to updated regulations and a wave of recent research, CBD products made from hemp are gaining popularity with consumers in search of relief and relaxation. Now, more than ever, CBD products are being used to treat everything from anxiety to inflammation with positive results.

Since today’s CBD products are made from hemp and do not contain any of the psychoactive properties of cannabis, they are legal across the entire United States. And now that consumers know they can enjoy those therapeutic benefits without experiencing the high that cannabis is known for, they are more open to purchasing and using CBD products as part of their regular health care routine.

Today’s CBD market is brimming with options as CBD infused products come in oil, gummy candies, non-greasy creams, capsules, and vapes. Determining which product is best suited for your specific needs can be particularly tricky, so research should be done on the part of the consumer ahead of purchasing any CBD infused product.

Some Specifics on CBD Oil

CBD oil is refined and rich in cannabidiol, a cannabinoid molecule best known as CBD. And unlike Tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, CBD is not psychoactive – meaning that it will not get you high like the THC associated with cannabis will if ingested. Hemp, or cannabis plants cultivated to contain less than 0.3 percent THC, is commonly sourced in the creation of CBD oil, though the oil can be made from the cannabis plant. CBD derived from hemp is a better overall option for people looking to make CBD a part of their daily regime without the consequences of getting high.

Thanks to a recent surge of clinical research studies, CBD infused products are shown to be effective in treating a wide array of conditions including inflammation, pain, and anxiety.

Finding the Best Products for Your Needs

Regardless of what you are trying to achieve or treat in taking CBD oil, you should first do some research into the brand and type of CBD infused product that will best fit your overall needs. Since CBD oil’s gain in popularity, it has become increasingly difficult for consumers to discern which brands are pure, properly tested, and of the highest quality due to the rash of brands that have descended upon the CBD market.

Sadly, a majority of CBD products out there are not as pure as their manufacturers would have consumers believe. A lot of times, products are made primarily of synthetic materials or are even devoid of CBD altogether. According to CBD producers and industry insiders, the best way to ensure that the product you are purchasing is pure and of high-quality is to search for products that have been thoroughly and properly tested to make sure that what’s inside the bottle is real and natural.

Looking at Lab Reports

The best way to ensure that the CBD product you are getting is pure, look for products that have been tested by a company other than the one that is manufacturing and selling it. Independent companies are not biased in any way because their reputations depend on the quality and reliability of their testing processes and procedures. Part of building that reputation, reliability, and trust for these companies is identifying everything that is in a CBD product, whether the product’s manufacturer is happy with the results or not.

According to product testing companies, the more tests run on a product by multiple testing agencies, the more complete a picture the consumer will have when it comes to a product’s overall chemical makeup and purity. In essence, consumers should come to think of this not only as a means of spot checking, but also a second, and possibly, third opinion on the overall consistency and quality of a CBD-based product.

It’s Good to Be in the Know

In general, all CBD oil contains CBD that is mixed into a carrier oil like grapeseed oil and possibly another type of essential oil. Even though the main purpose of testing is to ensure the purity and quality of the product you are buying, another reason for testing is to identify any contaminants, pesticides, and other synthetic substitutes for CBD that may be within the oil as well.

If you’ve been on the fence about purchasing CBD oil out of concern that it still may have some psychoactive properties or impure ingredients, rest assured that thorough testing will also provide that data to you as well. Remember, that hemp-derived CBD oil will contain less than 0.3 percent THC by volume, and thus will have zero psychoactive side effects associated with it. Also, products with less than 0.3 percent THC by volume are also legal in most if not all states across the United States.

The Importance of Regular Quality Control

In your search and research for the best quality CBD products, you should also look for companies that maintain transparency with their consumers. These companies are unafraid to share any and all test results with the public and welcome the opportunity to have open discussions with consumers regarding the CBD infused products that they sell.

Most legitimate companies do post their product’s test results right next to the actual product descriptions in their online catalogue. Moreover, the best companies will always keep their product’s test results up to date on their websites so that consumers can be confident that they are not looking at last year’s results and aren’t left questioning whether this year’s batch still makes the grade.

In addition, the best companies will go the extra step and not only post their product’s most recent test results and ingredients online, they will also include labeling mirroring those same results and ingredients either within their product’s packaging or on the products themselves. A good company will not have their consumers searching for the answers they are looking for.

The Responsibility of Retailers Never Ends

In your ongoing search for the best CBD products and retailers available, you should keep in mind that those test results also act as an indicator for that retailer’s reliability and reputation. Since the CBD industry is still considerably young, all consumers should follow the old saying, “Buyer Beware,” as sadly, most companies out in the market today are only producing and retailing CBD products to make a profit and do not have the health or the best interests of consumers in mind.

In following along with a company’s testing regimen and doing your own research and due diligence, you will be sure to find a reputable company that makes and sells the highest-quality, purest, most effective CBD product on the market today. It is these companies that will create a strong future for CBD oil and all of the wonderful health benefits that CBD offers.

Lastly, companies that run through many rounds of testing through many independent labs also symbolize a deeply invested seller interested in complete and total transparency with their consumers. So, before you invest your money in a CBD product to help with your health needs, remember to take some time to do the research so that you can find the best, most effective, highest-quality CBD product available.

Five Ways to Get Your Daily CBD Intake
CBD for Health

Five Ways to Get your Daily CBD Intake

by Jesse Dunn
written by Jesse Dunn

CBD (Cannabidiol) has been around for ages, yet in recent years this cannabinoid found in hemp, cannabis and other plants has attracted quite a bit of attention from the medical community and those seeking out all-natural alternative options for their health.

With this rise in popularity has come a wave of CBD products designed to suit virtually any need or use case, and there are now more ways than ever to get this cannabinoid’s healing properties into your system.

Because CBD is so versatile, manufacturers are taking consumer feedback to heart, releasing new and innovative ways to consume CBD and accompanying products that consumers can use and enjoy.

While options are nice, with products ranging from gummies, to capsules, and oils, it can be difficult and confusing to know which CBD product is the right one for your specific needs.

This brief guide will help you uncover some of the best (and most popular) ways, times and uses to get the most from your CBD. Read on to learn more!

CBD to Start Your Day

For most Americans, the day doesn’t begin until they’ve had that first cup of morning joe and consequential dose of caffeine. Now, that routine cup of coffee can be leveled up with the addition of CBD.

Yes, you heard that right. Coffee infused with 10 milligrams of CBD per serving comes in many varieties, including Columbian, Peruvian, dark roast, and others, helping jumpstart your day on the right foot. Why not switch up your regular cup of coffee with CBD infused coffee? Not only will your morning have its regular lift, but it will also have the added benefit of all that CBD has to offer. Balance is just a hot, steaming cup of coffee away.

If you’re not looking to walk around caffeinated all day, fear not! You can still get the same milligrams of CBD infused into decaffeinated coffee too. So now, you can stay warm and cozy during the day while reaping the benefits of CBD without any of the caffeine or overstimulation that comes along with it.

Mid-Day Work Jitters Have you on Edge? Calm your Anxiety…Discreetly
Current research has discovered that CBD is a promising new supplement when it comes to calming stress and other emotional issues associated with anxiety. In today’s world of meetings, deadlines, daily commutes, and high-volume workloads, anxiety for most people escalates during the typical Monday through Friday workday when most of these high-stress situations occur.

Taking a regular daily dose of CBD before and during your workday can help to keep the anxiety at bay while allowing you to successfully handle whatever stressors come your way.

But keeping a bottle of CBD oil at your desk, getting a dosage in, and then having to explain everything to your coworkers and boss may not make for the best situation. In this situation, CBD capsules or gummies may be the best products to take since the capsules anonymously blend in with other natural supplements on the market, and the gummies look like a typical vitamin or mid-afternoon snack.

Snack Time

If you’re midway through your day and craving a sweet treat, why not satisfy your sweet tooth with a CBD infused gummy treat? Each gummy or chewy treat has 10 milligrams of CBD infused in them, so now you can relax knowing that you will have a much-needed boost to finish out your workday in a stress-free way.

Not only will the CBD help you to relax in a non-sedating manner, it will also help you to feel ready to tackle any task that comes your way, no matter how big or small that task may be.

Post-Workout Gains – for the athlete in all of us

Regular exercise is a great way to diffuse stress and blow off some steam if your workday has been less than spectacular. The harder workout, the achier your muscles have the potential to be. And when that soreness piles on top of an already lingering migraine, your body can feel downright unbearable.

More and more amateur athletes, gym goers, and weekend warriors are turning to CBD’s natural anti-inflammatory properties to take away their aches and pains. CBD infused cream is a great addition to your post-workout routine as it is a wonderful aid in the recovery process. Most CBD creams are infused with a combination of CBD and menthol to help alleviate joint and muscle pain and discomfort. These topical, non-greasy creams come in an easy-to-use, no-mess pump bottle containing 150 milligrams and 300 milligrams of CBD, so you can decide the best dose to apply for all of your aches both big and small.

Sleep Tight with a Little Nighty-Night Assistance

If you have trouble sleeping at night, can’t fall asleep, or wake up frequently, then CBD oil will make a great addition to your nighttime routine. The simple ingestion of CBD oil can have you resting easy and feeling at ease. Now, a good night’s sleep may only be a few drops away.

CBD oil can either be taken under the tongue (sublingually) or in your favorite (non-alcoholic) drink right before bed at the end of your day. And since the oil comes with an easy-to-use dropper, dispensing the proper dose is simple and guess-free. CBD oils come in a variety of doses ranging from 7 milligrams to 58 milligrams per dose, so you can easily increase or decrease your nightly dose depending on your needs.

Closing Thoughts

As new research continues to report on the potential health benefits of CBD use, individuals like yourself are flocking in droves to try out this holistic, all-natural alternative to harsh chemicals and pharmaceutical drugs.

Finding new and effective ways to incorporate CBD into your lifestyle may dramatically improve the quality of your day to day well-being. But as with any supplement, every individual reacts differently, so you may need to experiment a bit in order to get the most benefits out of your regimen.

Whether it’s adding a boost to your day, getting a better night’s sleep, calming anxiety, or eliminating body aches and pains, CBD might be the answer you’ve been looking for.

Psoriasis Relief with CBD

by Jesse Dunn
written by Jesse Dunn

At Medterra, we are always amazed by the power of CBD and how it has helped many with their issues. CBD, or cannabidiol is one of the cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant, and is the second most abundant cannabinoid in marijuana after THC. Unlike THC, CBD is not psychoactive and appears to produce significant changes in the body and has been found to have medical benefits.

Medterra’s CBD Pain Cream product was recently featured on a Healthline article!

Psoriasis is a common condition in which skin cells build up and form scales and itchy, dry patches which can last for years. They appear as small red bumps on the skin, and can develop into red patches with a silvery, scaly coating.

“My doctor has prescribed many different medications to help my psoriasis. Most of them have been topical steroids. They only temporarily alleviated my psoriasis symptoms, if at all.”

According to Dr. Jeanette Jacknin, a California-based dermatologist, consumers themselves are driving the demand for topical cannabis skin care products. Many patients have learned about topical CBD’s pain-relieving qualities, and are seeking a more natural alternative. Many have gravitated towards using CBD skin care for their dry skin and have shared their testimonies.

5 Tips for Purchasing CBD Oil

by Jesse Dunn
written by Jesse Dunn

As studies of health benefits from cannabidiol are becoming more clear, more people are looking to it as a health supplement to help with various ailments, such as arthritis, inflammation, pain, and more. Due to the increasing demand, there are more manufacturers of CBD hemp oil selling product on the market.

Here are 5 tips to remember while shopping for CBD oil products.

Tip #1: Check if it Has Been Independently Lab Tested
CBD companies will send their product to laboratories for independent testing. Testing can reveal the amount and type of cannabinoids, and other toxins in their product. These analysis results are pivotal to know exactly what you are buying.

[Click here to view Medterra’s Lab Results]

Tip #2: Where The Hemp Was Grown and Manufactured
Not only should customers know what is inside the product, but where it is coming from. Hemp should be ideally grown in a field that was not a prior industrial waste dump. Plants can absorb these harmful wastes from the soil and contaminants could cause negative effects from consumption.

Tip #3: Method of Extraction Matters
Oil extract methods have the potential to produce traces of harmful solvents. Reputable CBD manufacturer will use an extraction method that results in the purest CBD possible. Currently, a reputable extraction method uses CO2 technology, aka Supercritical Fluid Extraction using Carbon Dioxide.

Tip #4: Color of the CBD Oil
The color of the CBD oil is an important factor for customers to know, as it indicates the purity of the oil itself. The darker the color means it has not been as filtered and has more impurities. If the oil is more clear, it means it has been filtered to extract unnatural substances to maximize pure CBD concentration.

Tip #5: Customer Service Should Be Readily Available & Responsive
Ultimately, a CBD company should always have a customer service representative ready to take calls and answers basic questions such as lead time on shipping, shelf life, storage, dosing, and company information.

When buying CBD products, please keep in mind that you want to find the purest product possible. By following the above tips, consumers can ensure they’re getting the maximum health benefits out of CBD oil products. If you have any questions, please email us at support@medterracbd.com or call 1-800-971-1288.

What is CBD Oil
CBD for HealthHealth

What is CBD and how can it help you?

by Jesse Dunn
written by Jesse Dunn

Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the many active cannabinoids identified in cannabis. It can be extracted from marijuana or industrial hemp. It is a major cannabinoid, accounting for up to 40% of the plant’s extract. You may be familiar with another compound called Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which produces the “high” feeling. However, unlike its psychoactive counterpart, CBD does not have any psychoactive properties and can actually counteract the psychoactivity of THC. CBD is a natural alternative which has been found to have many significant medical benefits.

Since then, CBD has become very popular recently and appearing in local grocery stores on shelves, with no medical card required to purchase. Many customers have been using it for a variety of ailments and although there has not been scientific conduct that CBD is proven to have medical benefits, there have been many successful user testimonies.

What is the Endocannabinoid System and how does it make CBD work?

Discovered in the 20th Century, the endocannabinoid system is a biological system composed of endocannabinoids that are neurotransmitters that bind to cannabinoid receptors in the mammalian brain and body. CBD is one of the primary cannabinoids found in hemp. These cannabinoid receptors play a pivotal role in physiological processes such as mood, memory and pain. There are two cannabinoid receptors – CB1 and CB2 that are located on cells throughout the body.

What are CB1 & CB2 Receptors?
CB1 receptors are primarily located on nerve cells in the brain, spinal cord and central nervous system. They are very abundant in the cerebellum, basal ganglia, and hippocampus. The CB1 receptors have been found to play a role in memory processing, motor regulation, pain sensation, mood, and sleep.
CB2 receptors are primarily found on cells in the immune system and its associated structures. When activated, they stimulate a response that fights inflammation, which can reduce pain and minimize damage to tissues.

Cannabinoids help coordinate and regulate how we feel and think by binding with the endocannabinoid system’s CB1 and CB2 receptors. Fitting like puzzle pieces, cannabinoids are designed to link together with the cannabinoid receptors. Linking activates the receiving neuron into action, triggering a set of events to pass along the message and carry out a variety of cellular responses needed for homeostasis and healthy functioning.

Is CBD legal?

Yes CBD is legal nationwide, being that it contains less than 0.3% THC and complies with the Agricultural Act of 2014.

The Agricultural Act of 2014 is an act of Congress that authorizes nutrition and agriculture programs in the United States with certain states, signed into bill by former U.S. President Barack Obama. The act indicates the growing or cultivating of industrial hemp is allowed under the laws of the State in which such institution of higher education or State department of agriculture is located and such research occurs.

All of Medterra’s CBD products are grown and extracted in accordance with the strict guidelines of the Kentucky Department of Agriculture. Growing under the Kentucky Hemp Pilot Program is also 100% compliant with Section 7606 of the 2014 Farm Bill, which means harvesting and distributing is 100% legal at the federal level. Our products contain 0% THC, guaranteed.

How can you take CBD?

1) Vaping

Vape pen or vaporizers are a very popular product since it is the fastest means to consume BCD to elicit its effects in the body. Since the effect in the body will be felt within a short period of time after inhalation, the active ingredient enters directly into the bloodstream.

2) Sublingually

The second fastest option is taking it sublingually, where the consumer keeps the oil underneath the tongue for a short period of time before swallowing it. This is the most popular means of CBD consumption.

3) Oral Application

Another common option of consuming CBD is simply eating it as it is, which might take longer to produce the desired outcome. These options can appear as capsules, and in edible forms such as chocolate or gummy bears. This method is considered the slowest but is an easy way to consume CBD.

4) Topical Application
