Surely by now you have heard about the Amazing Health Benefits of CBD and might even know some friends who are using it! But you may be asking yourself “Is CBD Oil the same as Hemp Oil?”

CBD oil is most certainly NOT the same as hemp oil. Hemp seed oil is simply the oil that is cold pressed from hemp seeds and offers little to no health benefits. CBD or Cannabidiol, however does come from the same plant but many people become confused because CBD is extracted from the flowers of a full grown hemp plant while hemp oil is just cold pressed from raw hemp seeds. Cannabidiol is a naturally occurring compound found in the resinous flower of hemp or cannabis, a plant with a rich medicinal history going back thousands of years. Today the therapeutic properties of CBD are being tested and confirmed by scientists and doctors around the world. A safe, non-addictive substance, CBD is one of more than a hundred “phytocannabinoids,” which are unique to cannabis and endow the plant with its robust therapeutic profile. 

The Endocannabinoid System (ECS) in your body is a network of receptors inside every single one of your cells. The system is there to maintain homeostasis or balance. In response to toxins in our body, the ECS releases cannabinoids to set things back to their natural state. Over time, with aging, the ECS system eventually burns out. Fewer cannabinoids are released, so the body’s levels deplete. The result is, all sorts of symptoms of aging like age-related memory loss, blurry vision, joint discomfort, aches and pains, difficulty sleeping and other ailments. Our Avani CBD Tinctures give your ECS the boost it needs – delivering amazing relief from age-related discomfort and decline.
