FAQS
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the 113+ compounds found in hemp plants. It’s a non-intoxicating cannabinoid that has the ability to act on cannabinoid receptors that are part of the Endocannabinoid System (ECS).
Plant cannabinoids, also known as phytocannabinoids, bind with this system which helps regulate certain vital functions of the body, including:
- Sleep
- Appetite
- Immune
- Pleasure
- Pain
- Inflammation
- And more!
When the ECS is in sync, the human body is able to achieve what is called homeostasis, which means your body is operating at optimal human performance.
At present, CBD from hemp sources is legal in all 50 states. Battle Balm CBD products are made using hemp-derived CBD, and therefore, legal to use and be distributed nationwide.
There are 2 ways to take CBD, internally and externally. The internal method of consumption is either by ingestion or by suppository. The external method is typically by topical application. More information on the various ways of taking CBD will be in a separate article coming soon.
It depends. There are many topical and edible products available on the market. Battle Balm CBD falls into the external application half of CBD usage. Transdermal absorption is the key delivery mechanism and that allows for the user to apply the lotion, cream, spray, or balm to the skin. Musculoskeletal complaints such as tightness, swelling, sprains, strains, edema, arthritis and joint pain, etc., are best treated with high quality topicals such as Battle Balm CBD.
