Hemp :

The Source Plant of CBD.

Hemp (Cannabis Sativa L.) is a plant cultivated for its many uses, including the production of CBD.

Growing up to 5 meters in height, this tall herbaceous plant grows in various regions of France and is often used for its industrial fibers.

Hemp varieties legally cultivated in France are rich in CBD and very low in THC, enabling them to be used for organic CBD products without euphoric effects.

CBD, extracted from these varieties, is a molecule prized for its relaxing, non-addictive and health-friendly benefits.

Differences between CBD and THC.

Although CBD and THC are both derived from cannabis, their effects on the body are very different.

CBD is renowned for its soothing properties without inducing euphoria, while THC is a psychotropic compound that can alter the mental state.

The major difference lies in the chemical structure of the two molecules, which affects the way they interact with the endocannabinoid system.

CBD is often used to reduce stress, anxiety and pain, while THC is sought after for its recreational effects and is strictly regulated in France.

  • CBD (Cannabidiol) : Non-psychotropic, soothing, non-addictive.
  • THC (Delta-9-tétrahydrocannabinol) : Psychotropic, euphoric, addictive.

Effects of CBD on the Body : Natural Benefits.

CBD interacts with our body's endocannabinoid system without causing any changes in our mental state. Its benefits include the reduction of anxiety, stress and certain inflammatory pains.

What's more, CBD is known to be non-addictive and well tolerated, even at high doses, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).

Unlike THC, CBD does not cause excessive drowsiness or euphoria, making it a preferred option for those seeking natural solutions without side effects.

CBD in France: legality and compliance

In France, the sale and consumption of CBD is legal, provided that the THC content of the products does not exceed 0.3%, in accordance with current legislation.

However, specific regulations apply, notably to the sale of raw CBD flowers and leaves, which have been the subject of recent legal debates.

Since January 2022, the sale of CBD flowers has once again been authorized subject to compliance with this THC level. Canebiera scrupulously respects these standards to guarantee the legality and quality of its organic CBD products in France.
