Ours do and at the end of this post I will put the test results. All products are registered GMP. GMP is Good Manufacturing Practices.

Why organic?  According to the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), the term “organic” refers to any item that is grown or produced without the use of genetically modified organisms, pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, sewage sludge or ionizing radiation.

Success stories are everywhere of people looking younger and feeling more confident with the use of CBD. For a moment let's get into the science behind why our products are working…. Then a recipe to make your own body oil.  Why is CBD powerful for anti-aging? CBD is a powerful antioxidant - this aids in reducing free-radicals and damage done to the skin. Free radicals cause collagen to break down even faster than normal aging.  Collagen assists the skin by forming a fibrous network of cells. New cells grow on this network.

After menopause there is a significant break down.  CBD is also a powerful anti-inflammatory- inflammation playing a role in aging. It is necessary for the healing process, but when this is chronic regeneration and tissue maintenance start to fade causing aging.  Apple Stem Cells & anti-aging First we need to know that our skin has stem ...

The discovery of the endocannabinoid system (ECS) was in the early to mid 1990s. Recent science has found that the system not only response to the endocannabinoids produced in the body, but also to external cannabinoids like the phytocannabinoid cannabidiol, or CBD. Two of the main receptors within this system are cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) and cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2). Neurons act as a lock and the cannabinoids are a key.  https://www.tryctfo.com/awakenedvegan/index.html Cannabinoid Receptor Type 1 (CB1) Discovered in 1990 and has high numbers within the hypothalamus, hippocampus, amygdala, central nervous system,  intestines, connective tissues, and gonads.  Benefits of activating CB1: Relieving depression Increasing myelin formation Lowering intestinal inflammation Decreasing Leaky Gut Syndrome Lowering blood pressure Lowering anxiety  Reducing fear and paranoia  Increasing BDNF levels  Increasing PP...

PTSD, depression, anxiety... ... A few struggles my son faces daily. These are all expressed as anger and behavioral problems. At 11 years old life shouldn't be so hard to face. Your biggest worry should be if you can play with your friends or Fridays test. Not if your going to freak out in class or have an anxiety attack if called on . This is nothing new to our world. At age 4 we started using CBD. After he was kicked out of head start and daycare something needed to be done. He had uncontrollable rage over seemingly nothing, slight changes, if his line of cars was touched, and noise. CBD gave him the ability to control his violent outbursts and come out of them faster. The thing I loved the most was I had a  happy active kid with CBD rather then a zombie the prescription drugs create. I also had him tested for food allergies while we waited to be tested for autism. He was allergic to most ingredients. We cut these out which were gluten, dairy, eggs, and pe...

People lose their sh*t when they find out how old I am. They just seriously can't wrap their heads around me being 36 years old. They normally think I am in my early 20s. Not because I act like it, but because I look so young. People have actually think my kids are my step kids because I couldn't be old enough to have an 11 and 10 year old.  You may be thinking I was a good girl and never drank or smoked….Wrong! I started drinking and smoking in 1995, 12 years old. From about 17 until about 24 I was party central. Below is a picture of me when my kiddos were little. I was still smoking daily still and drank a few times a week in moderation. This was 2010. As you can tell I aged a lot. The picture of me now shows a reversal of the damage I did to my skin.  I stopped smoking in 2011 and stopped drinking in 2013. I started eating healthy and using CBD in 2013. I didn't used CBD for anti-aging I used it for muscle pain. I have been adding it to my body oil all the...

The only difference is the amount of THC and CBD among other phytocannabinoids. We will only focus on the CBD and THC.  Hemp oil We are going to start with the lowest amount of CBD and THC then work our way up.
