Hemp

The plant that is the source of CBD

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

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

The varieties of hemp legally grown in France are rich in CBD and very low in THC, which allows their use for organic CBD products without euphoric effects.

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

The differences

CBD and THC

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

CBD is known for its calming properties without causing euphoria, while THC is a psychotropic compound that can alter mental state.

The major difference lies in the chemical structure of the two molecules, which impacts how 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-tetrahydrocannabinol) : Psychotropic, euphoric, addictive.

Natural Benefits

The effects of CBD on the body

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

Furthermore, CBD is recognized as being 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.

Légalité et Conformité

Le CBD en France

En France, la vente et la consommation de CBD sont légales à condition que le taux de THC présent dans les produits ne dépasse pas 0,3%, conformément à la législation en vigueur.

Toutefois, des réglementations spécifiques s'appliquent, notamment sur la vente des fleurs et feuilles brutes de CBD, qui ont été sujettes à des débats juridiques récents. Depuis janvier 2022, la vente de fleurs de CBD est de nouveau autorisée sous réserve du respect de ce taux de THC.

Canebiera Producteur de CBD France veille à respecter scrupuleusement ces normes pour garantir la légalité et la qualité de ses produits CBD bio en France.
