TOP 4 MYTHS ABOUT HEMP DEMYSTIFIED

There’s no denying the hype around CBD hemp extract oil. Maybe you heard about it from a buddy on a camping trip or on your weekly trip to see the acupuncturist. If you’re considering trying hemp extract oil for the first time, it's important to separate fact from fiction. What may start out as a false fact can easily snowball into urban legend.

Hemp and Marijuana are the same plant: MYTH

This is probably the mac-daddy of hemp myths. First, wrap your brain around this – hemp and marijuana come from the same plant species Cannabis sativa, hence, the confusion. Over the centuries, growers recognized the many beneficial characteristics of cannabis and bred the plant to separate out those traits.

Think about someone you’re related to that couldn’t be more different than you. That’s hemp and marijuana.

The cannabidiol in hemp is most recognized for its wellness properties; it’s the THC in marijuana that gets you high.

The results have been so remarkable that Japanese scientists have considered using the method for Fukushima. Unfortunately, the difficulty in obtaining hemp licenses prohibits them from using this miraculous plant.
