Hemp Extract FAQs

Hemp Extract contains a full spectrum of compounds that are beneficial to the body, including an array of cannabinoids and terpenes. Hemp extract does not have any intoxicating effects, and has been shown to help with the body’s natural ability to regulate and heal itself.

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a group of endogenous cannabinoid receptors located in the mammalian brain and throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems, consisting of neuromodulatory lipids and their receptors. Known as “the body’s own cannabinoid system”,the ECS is involved in a variety of physiological processes including appetite, pain-sensation, mood, and memory, and in mediating the psychoactive effects of cannabis.The ECS is also involved in voluntary exercise and may be related to the evolution of the runner’s high in human beings and related aspects of motivation or reward for locomotor activity in other animals.

Clinical Endocannabinoid Deficiency Syndrome (CEDS) is an umbrella term for a group of illnesses, including fibromyalgia, migraine and irritable bowel syndrome. Subsequent research has confirmed that underlying endocannabinoid deficiencies indeed play a role in migraine, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome and a growing list of other medical conditions. Clinical experience is bearing this out. Further research and especially, clinical trials will further demonstrate the usefulness of medical cannabis. As legal barriers fall and scientific bias fades this will become more apparent.

Everyone is different, so results vary from person to person. Research shows that Hemp Extract benefits include acting as an anti-inflammatory, anti-pain, anticonvulsant, antioxidant, antiemetic, anxiolytic and antipsychotic agent, and is therefore a potential medicine for the treatment of neuro-inflammation, epilepsy, oxidative injury, vomiting and nausea, anxiety and schizophrenia. Hemp Extract is being used in many ways including: treating cancer, epilepsy, anxiety and depression, pain and inflammation, arthritis, Parkinson’s, PTSD, and much more. A quick google search will bring up a host of articles and journals that make claims about how Hemp Extract can help heal the human body.

In compliance with FDA rules, we make no such claims. We simply suggest you try it and decide for yourself. The one thing to remember when doing your research is, dosage matters! Some companies claim such things as “Super high dose Hemp Extract, 25mg.” Extremely few offer doses to match our standard dose of Hemp Extract, and most charge a premium. Our standard half ounce containers contain 300 mg Hemp Extract. We personally, use Hemp Extract almost daily for pain relief and muscle stiffness.

Due to FDA restrictions, we can’t make any claims as to potential benefits, but you are welcome to do your own research!

All of our online research says no. But being the skeptics we are, we conducted our own experiment. We made a double strength (600 mg Hemp Extract) batch of therapeutic ointment and got an incredible massage, then went and got tested for THC. The test came up negative.

Everybody is different so of course results vary. Just like taking any other medication or product everybody has their own tolerances. Due to this we simply say, try it and find out how our products can benefit you. Alexander Cyrus, one of the owners, uses the Pain Stick daily to reduce the effects of surgical arthritis in his ankle.
