What is CBD used for?
Wellness and CBD
16.10.24
CBD shops are becoming more and more numerous, and inside we find a wide variety of products such as flowers, oils, cosmetic creams and even by-products for cats and dogs.
Yet many of us are still unaware of CBD's properties. Wrongly associated with drugs, it scares off potential consumers who imagine that CBD cannabis products are dangerous to health.
But what is CBD used for? This article explains what CBD is and what it contains. Firstly, numerous medical and scientific studies attest to the fact that CBD cannabis products have interesting properties and produce no psychotropic effects. Products not mixed with tobacco, such as pre-rolled cigarettes, are nicotine-free.
The properties of CBD
For legal reasons linked to ordinances issued by the FOPH, we will unfortunately be unable to discuss the therapeutic benefits of CBD. Nevertheless, we'll be covering other topics such as the differences between CBD and THC, the composition of CBD cannabis, its extraction, ways of consuming it, and much more.
What does CBD do?
The CBD molecule acts directly on the endocannabinoid system, which regulates a number of biological processes such as digestion, metabolism, memory, stress and emotional regulation, to name but a few. It plays a vital role in the proper functioning of the human organism.
The differences between THC and CBD
CBD consumption has been legalized in some countries, including Switzerland, France and other European countries. This is not yet the case for THC. Why is this? CBD is not addictive and is therefore not a narcotic. It is therefore not considered a drug, but a natural, plant-based product.
Cannabis is a plant
THC and CBD make up a small proportion of the cannabinoids (groups of chemical or plant substances secreted by the plant) contained in the cannabis plant. They all have effects on the human body that we know very little about. This is not the case for THC, which, according to research, has been classified as a psychotropic molecule that can cause hallucinations, anxiety attacks and violent dizziness. On the other hand, this is not the case for the CBD molecule.
CBD's active ingredients are said to have positive effects and promote general well-being on a daily basis.

How is CBD used?
The best-known form for using CBD products is the smoking flower.
However, at Naturalpes, we prefer to use by-products in the form of oils, balms for topical application or infusions. In fact, we offer a wide range of oils in three distinct ranges, called RAW | GOLD | WELLNESS, for specific uses, as well as infusions concocted by our 1001 Herbes medicinal plant expert.

How is CBD extracted from the cannabis plant?
We use a supercritical C02 extraction method. It offers undeniable advantages in terms of both ecology and quality. This clean technology enables us to obtain the raw concentrate of the CBD cannabis plant. We call it "Full Spectrum" because it contains all the cannabinoids. This extract forms the basis of our derivative products such as CBD oils, balms and capsules.
Products Naturalpes 100% natural
For Naturalpes, things are clear: residues of any chemical product are out of the question in products made from CBD cannabis plants. We demand that our growers and partners use no chemical fertilizers, no synthetic pesticides and no fertilizers when growing plants indoors or outdoors. What you find in Naturalpes products is the CBD cannabis plant and nothing else.
To dilute our extracts, we use hemp seed oil or coconut oil (certified organic) and vitamin E for preservation.
Our aim: to improve the well-being and daily lives of our customers through the essences of nature.
This is one of our strengths: our partners understand this and share Naturalpes's values, including strict respect for plants, biodiversity and nature in general. As a result, our CBD cannabis plants are naturally healthy and organic, developing optimal flavours and properties for the production of high-quality products.
As you can see, CBD will accompany you on a daily basis, as a treatment lasting from one week to several months, or on an occasional basis. It helps the body to function properly and provides a moment of relaxation.
