What is CBD?
CBD (cannabidiol) is one of over 100 cannabinoids found in the hemp plant, it contains all the therapeutic benefits of the plant without the high.
CBD Oil is emerging as a leader in plant medicine having multiple benefits throughout the body, making it a smart new addition to your wellness regimen.
What are the benefits?
CBD helps to regulate many of the body’s naturally occurring functions resulting in improved sleep, focus, muscle recovery and reduced stress, anxiety, pain and inflammation.

How does it work?
CBD is a Cannabinoid, which interacts with our Endo-Cannabinoid system.
The Endo-Cannabinoid system is the largest receptor system in the body governing many of our bodies processes such as mood, energy, pain and sleep.
The better the Endo-Cannabinoid functions the better we feel, and the best way to enhance it's functioning is though consuming cannabinoids such as CBD!

How will I feel?
Expect to feel a gradual but pronounced positive shift in your overall mindset, less aches and pains and enjoy a good nights sleep.
Are the benefits instant?
Some people do feel an instant sense of calm with CBD, but like any health routine you’ll really notice the benefits after consistent use.
We recommend dosing daily for two weeks straight to allow your body to adjust to the CBD and to feel the full benefits!
How do I take it?
Fill the measured dropper to the desired volume and take directly under the tongue, hold for 30 seconds then swallow
Alternatively drop into a beverage, such as your morning smoothie.
Why do you recommend dosing under the tongue?
Because of the thinness of the lining, the glands under you tongue will intake CBD directly into the bloodstream.
This process dramatically increases how quickly you feel the effects from CBD, as the CBD quickly enters the bloodstream without having to first move through the digestive system and liver metabolism
How much should I take?
If it's your first time taking CBD we recommend starting low and slowly increasing your dose over two weeks.You can start anywhere from 5-10 drops or 0.25mL on the measured dropper.
0.50mL on our measured dropper is an average daily dose, this is 16MG of CBD.

Will I still be able to do stuff? Work? Drive a car?
Yes! As CBD is non psychoactive and non intoxicating you can do everything you normally do through out the day.
We find CBD increases productivity as it helps to calm the mind allowing you to focus completely on tasks at hand.
Do I have to take it before bed?
Nope! This can be a good place to start though as when first taking CBD your body will be adjusting to the extract and you may feel a little tired in the afternoon when you normally wouldn't.
If this happens reduce your dose or switch to dosing before bed.
This is normal and will subside after a few days use!
Will it make me feel high?
Nope! There’s a big difference between the 2 most common compounds in cannabis - THC - gets you high. CBD - does not.
THC is the cannabinoid that prompts psychoactive effects commonly associated with marijuana, like the munchies, euphoria, relaxation.
CBD is another cannabinoid, but, unlike THC, it's not psychoactive. CBD provides some of the therapeutic benefits of the plant such as pain relief and reduced inflammation without the high.
I'm on some medication and I'm not sure if CBD will interfere with them?
We recommend you speak with a trusted medical professional if you are taking any other medications, especially prescription medications.
Similar to grapefruits, CBD could interfere with your body's ability to metabolize drugs.
Can I fail a drug test?
Unfortunately, because Higher Wave CBD is a full spectrum extract it does contain trace amounts of THC which may cause you to fail to a drug test.
