Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. What is CBD?

The two main ingredients that are found in the marijuana plant are CBD and THC. Together these both belong to an exclusive class of compounds known as cannabinoids.

Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the main psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis, and causes the sensation of getting “high” that’s often associated with marijuana. However, unlike THC, CBD is not psychoactive and completely legal.

From birth, we naturally produce endocannabinoids-a compound similar to CBD. People are shocked to find out it’s already in our body, and our bodies already love it. Cannabinoids aren’t just found in the cannabis plant, they’re in us too. That’s why taking CBD is so important in supporting our health and wellness.

Every human and many animals too have a system present in their bodies known as The Endogenous Cannabinoid System. This system is so heavily involved in our health that it can restore balance when we are ill or make poor lifestyle choices.

When we take CBD, it stimulates our endocannabinoids system which is a system of receptors throughout the body. It is vital to keep this system in check as it helps our immune systems, protect our brains, help us manage stress and even keep our bodies in balance.

Hemp Heros products are 100% natural, safe, non-toxic and are of the highest quality.

Q2. Is CBD Legal?

Answer: YES

CBD is completely legal and we guarantee our products are legal to consume, sell and possess both in the EU and the US. If you want to use our CBD products it is TOTALLY legal to do so.

Q3. Will I fail a drug test if I use CBD?

Answer: NO

Most hemp oil or CBD products are sold with much lower levels of THC (less than 0.2%) so most consumers will never have a problem passing a drugs test. All our products meet EU standards and contain (less than 0.2% THC).

Remember, CBD isn’t even being tested for and most work places aren’t going to have a problem with you using it- it’s non-psychoactive.

Q4. Will CBD get me high?

Answer: NO

CBD won’t get you HIGH as it does not contain the same psychoactive properties. That means it is safe and secure to use CBD allowing you to harness its benefits while being in complete control.

Q5. How much CBD do I take daily?

Each person’s endocannabinoid system works differently and reacts differently with each persons body. There is no straight, solid scientific information that states how much CBD you should be taking at any one time, always start off with a small dose and work your way up.

Height and weight play a part as well as the quality of the CBD oil. If you are bigger or taller than the average person you may need more and visa versa. Either way we advise you do not go over the daily dosage recommendation of 200mg.

Q6. Will CBD help my Illness?

All our products are sold as food supplements only to help promote everyday well being. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

Q7. Is CBD addictive?

Answer: NO

CBD is categorised as non-addictive a report last year by the World Health Organization declared that CBD is non-addictive, writing, “In humans, CBD exhibits no effects indicative of any abuse or dependence potential” and that “CBD is well-tolerated and safe for human consumption.

Q8. Can I take CBD with other medication?

When it comes to taking CBD with other medications, we only ever advise one thing- if you are unsure, check with a medical professional before using it as it can, on occasion, interact with other medicines. Always stick to the recommended dose too and if you are taking other meds keep a two hour window between taking CBD and whatever else you take.

Q9. Can CBD be taken by children?

Since CBD cannabinoids naturally occur in the body they therefore naturally work with the endocannabinoid system to control communication between cells and mediate body function. This means CBD is perfectly safe for children.

CBD is non-psychoactive so your child will categorically not get high from using it. Hemp Hero’s products are oil extracted and prove to have no negative effects at all. In fact, many people report amazing improvements to their general health both mentally and physically after using.

Without children, CBD might never have received as much investigation and study as it has. By providing such a unique nutritional content, CBD hemp oil earns a place among other favorite daily vitamins and supplements to give to your family each day.

Q10. Is CBD safe for pets?

Answer: YES

CBD is perfectly safe for animals and we have a lot of customers who specifically buy for their pets. We would just recommend you try our Hemp Heros for pet product which has been specifically designed for pets.
