Understanding Cannabidiol (CBD) in Hemp Plants
Cannabidiol, or CBD, is the most abundant compound found in the flower and leaves of hemp plants. It is one of over 100 different cannabinoids that can be extracted from the hemp plant. As a cannabinoid, CBD interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system, which plays a crucial role in maintaining various physiological processes.
What Makes CBD Unique?
CBD is specifically classified as a phytocannabinoid, which means it is a cannabinoid that originates from a plant. Unlike endocannabinoids, which are naturally produced within our bodies, phytocannabinoids like CBD come from external sources. Despite this, they can still affect our endocannabinoid system because their molecular structure is similar to that of endocannabinoids.
How Does CBD Work?
The similarity in molecular makeup allows phytocannabinoids to interact with our endocannabinoid system, influencing its activity. This interaction can lead to various therapeutic benefits, making CBD a valuable compound for addressing different health concerns. By altering the activity within the endocannabinoid system, CBD can help regulate pain, inflammation, mood, and other important functions, contributing to overall well-being.

How To Take Full Spectrum CBD Oil
To take CBD oil using the sublingual method:
1) Fill the dropper provided with your bottle to the 1.0mL line. This is equivalent to one dose.
- In Homestead Alternatives 750mg and 1500mg CBD oil products, 1mL equals 25mg of CBD.
- In Homestead Alternatives Extra Strength 3000mg CBD oil, 1mL equals 50mg of CBD.
2) Using the dropper, place the oil under your tongue. Avoid touching the dropper directly to your mouth, as saliva may enter the dropper and your remaining CBD oil when placed back in the bottle. While unlikely, this could cause contamination of the bottle.
3) Hold the oil under your tongue for 45-60 seconds, or until full absorbed. The idea is to avoid swallowing the oil as much as possible, because CBD is not quite as effective if it has to travel through your digestive system.
Repeat this three step process 1-2 times daily at a consistent dosage.
