Taking the First Steps in the World of CBD

“Will it get me high? What’s it even made from?”

We get it. The world of recently legalized-CBD can be daunting. There’s a lot of information (and misinformation) you can find online. Plus, it can be very difficult to find trustworthy brands producing CBD that you let you feel confident using.

So, will CBD get you high?
Nope. CBD (Cannabidiol) has been found in lay and scientific studies to not alter users’ consciousness and has been deemed “non-psychoactive”. However, keep in mind that CBD has been shown to have anti-anxiety, anti-psychotic, anti-craving, alerting, and mood-elevating effects in human studies. While those benefits of CBD do not alter users’ mental or physical functions (even in very high doses), it does clearly impact users’ psyches– thus considered a non-psychoactive substance.

What’s CBD made from?
CBD is the non-intoxicating compound found in cannabis and hemp plants. CBD is extracted from hemp plants and then processed into several different consumable forms. Oils, capsules, edibles, topical ointments, tinctures, and smokeable flowers are just a few of the options.

The key is knowing as much as possible about the producer of whichever CBD substance you choose to use.

That’s where Cannesota CBD comes in! It’s a northeast Minneapolis CBD producer that puts the customer first – starting with a recipe that is comprised of only 3 ingredients – hemp extract, coconut oil, and terpenes. Every single batch of Cannesota CBD is tested for purity and potency so that only the stuff you want ends up in the bottle. Plus, tests are performed by an independent third-party lab so you never have to worry about skewed results.

Even more so, test results can be found on their website. Simply match the date on the bottle with their batch results online. Cannesota is so proud to be a Minnesota brand that their products can only be purchased within MN borders, which helps to keep distribution costs low – a perk that shows up in a lower price tag. By purchasing a Cannesota product, you’re directly supporting a local business that’s focused on our local economy.

Valley Natural Foods offers several varieties of Cannesota CBD oil in our Wellness Departments.
