There are more than 100 active compounds found in the hemp plant. The most important compounds are tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and the non-intoxicating cannabidiol (CBD). CBD is the second most prevalent active ingredient and is an essential component of medical marijuana. Unlike THC, CBD does not produce psychoactive effects, making it a non-intoxicating option with benefits.

Cannabinoids (CBD) are group of fatty compounds found in hemp, and the human body. These compounds are key players in normal immune and central nervous system functioning.

Cannabinol (CBN) is a psychoactive cannabinoid found in older cannabis plants. CBN is gaining popularity because of its potential benefits for sleep and pain management issues.

Cannabidiol (CBD) and cannabinol (CBN) are two of over a hundred natural chemical components, known as cannabinoids, found in the cannabis plant. While tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the psychoactive compound responsible for the “high” associated with marijuana, CBD and CBN are considered milder substances. They are non-psychoactive and are primarily recognized for their potential medical benefits.

CBD and CBN may interact with the same receptors in your body, but they produce different effects. CBD is more widely known and derived from the hemp plant, making it legally available for consumption in the EU and Switzerland. CBN has limited research and availability, but it is gaining recognition for its wellness benefits in sleep and pain management.

From a science perspective, relevant amounts of CBN are formed as a metabolite of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). CBN acts as a partial agonist at the CB1 and CB2 receptors. However, it has lower affinities compared to THC. CB1 receptors are mainly in our central nervous system and spinal cord, and CB2 receptors are mostly located in our organs and immune system. It is possible that CBN interacts with both of these receptors, whereas CBD works in other ways to increase the production of our own endocannabinoids.

Some cannabis manufacturers separate CBN oil during the extraction process. You can purchase CBN oils here.

CBD oil extraction methods vary, but two common techniques are CO2 extraction and solvent extraction. CO2 extraction involves using pressurized carbon dioxide to pull the desired compounds from the hemp plant. This method is highly efficient and yields a pure and potent CBD oil. It also allows for precise control over the extraction process.

Solvent extraction involves using solvents like ethanol or butane to extract cannabinoids from the plant material. The solvent is passed through the hemp plant, dissolving the desired compounds. After extraction, the solvent is removed, leaving behind the CBD oil.

The best extraction method for full-spectrum CBD is still ethanol extraction, as it allows a particularly wide range of plant substances to be extracted. Since true full extracts always contain cannabis terpenes, CBD full extracts smell intensely of cannabis. We will explain what full spectrum CBD is in more detail below, but basically it contains all compounds.

While CBD oil is generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience mild side effects such as dry mouth, drowsiness, or changes in appetite. These effects are typically temporary and subside with time. It’s important to note that CBD oil may interact with certain medications, so it’s essential to consult with a healthcare professional if you’re taking any medications.

CBD oil is generally considered safe, but it’s crucial to choose high-quality products from reputable brands. Look for CBD oils that have undergone third-party lab testing to ensure they are contaminants- free and the label is accurate.

Consumption of alcohol is generally not recommended for people with any type of liver diseases or conditions. Again, always consult your medical professional. CBD should not substitute any pharmaceutical medication.

Everybody is different, but in general daily use can help improve your overall wellbeing and may help with frequent anxiety or trouble sleeping. For example, CBD may soothe your nervous system, and it’s easier to prevent a symptom from escalating.

Introducing CBD to your body is all about consistency. Consistency is important in any wellness routine. However, if you experience any side effects, you should always consult a pharmacist or doctor.

The terms CBD oil, hemp oil and cannabis oil are often used interchangeably, however these terms refer to different hemp products.

Some people confuse CBD oil with hemp seed oil. While from the same plant, these are not technically the same. Hempseed oil contains essential fatty acids, but no CBD. Full-spectrum CBD oils are hemp extracts that contain not just CBD but a whole host of terpenes and phytocannabinoids including CBG, CBC, CBN, and many more. When you take a full-spectrum CBD oil, these compounds work together and are believed to be more effective than just CBD oil alone.

Hemp oil is derived from the seeds of the hemp plant and contains negligible amounts of CBD. It is primarily used as a dietary supplement or for its nutritional value due to its abundance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. High-quality hemp oil is characterized by organic hemp seeds, which are cold-pressed and processed into oil.

In CBD oil, CBD is obtained from the flowers, stems and leaves, instead of the seeds. As mentioned before the broad and full spectrum CBD oils include cannabinoids and terpenes, for the entourage effect. CBD oil, specifically, is extracted from hemp plants and contains a significant concentration of CBD. It is used primarily for its potential therapeutic properties, such as promoting relaxation, supporting overall well-being, and potentially alleviating various health conditions.

Cannabis oil, on the other hand, is derived from cannabis plants and may contain higher levels of THC, the psychoactive compound. It is typically used for recreational or medicinal purposes in regions where cannabis is legal. A high concentration of THC is possible when purchasing Cannabis oil online, which would cause it to be illegal in Switzerland.

Numerous effects of CBD have been discussed. However, there are no large-scale studies with thousands of participants to make precise statements about the effects of cannabidiol. For example, it appears CBD can improve relaxation and sleep. In studies with few participants, for example, CBD consumers were able to fall asleep faster and sleep better, which is why CBD could serve as a sleep aid.

Therapeutically, CBD is already used as an analgesic to relieve pain in certain types of pain. In addition, the anti-inflammatory effect is known, which is mostly used by cosmetics for the skin. Recently, research has focused more and more on the terpene entourage effect. As a result, CBD could possibly be used as an anxiolytic (anti-anxiety agent) or anticonvulsant (antiepileptic).

CBD is already being used today to treat chronic pain and inflammation. Here it has been found that sometimes fewer opioids or similarly strong painkillers have to be used when CBD is involved. Please keep in mind that these modes of action are not fully documented.

Beyond specific health conditions, CBD oil is often used as a supplement to promote overall well-being. Many individuals incorporate CBD oil into their daily routine as part of a holistic approach to wellness. It can be seen as a tool for stress management, relaxation, and supporting a healthy lifestyle.

CBD oil’s potential to improve overall well-being is attributed to its interaction with the endocannabinoid system, which is involved in regulating various bodily functions. By supporting the balance of this system, CBD oil may contribute to overall homeostasis and promote a sense of wellness.

In cool dark places where the temperature does not exceed 25 degrees Celsius. This way, it will degrade more slowly, won’t lose its wellness properties.

Like most natural products, cannabidiol (CBD) oil eventually degrades and expires. CBD oil shelf life typically ranges between one to two years, but there are many factors that can affect the duration, including its ingredients, and how its stored. We recommend that to store in a cool and dark place (cabinet, drawer) under 25 C.

No. Never. It’s important to note that CBD oil is not a substitute for medical treatment, and individuals with underlying health conditions should consult with their healthcare provider before incorporating CBD oil into their regimen.

CBD should never replace a therapy prescribed by a doctor or medications. The information provided here is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Always ask a doctor if your health is at risk and if you are taking medication. They can clarify with you whether the use of the hemp plant and its CBD can cause problems for you and your well-being.

The CBD industry in Switzerland is within the best in the world. Switzerland is the second largest producer of hemp (8,000 hectares). France currently has 12,000 hectares of farmland dedicated to CBD. We currently only source CBD from local Swiss farmers and manufacturers, benefiting the Swiss farmers growing CBD and reduction in carbon footprint.

After testing multiple Swiss brands and reviewing the laboratory results, the manufacturers Qualicann and Naturecannm have emerged as test winners and bestsellers offering a wide range of CBD products. Feel free to add their products to your shopping cart to enjoy their best quality.

Having said that, based on our experience and laboratory test results the difference between these now famous brand names and “generic” or “direct-from-farmer” CBD is not much, if any. At the end of the day your intake of CBD, whether full or broad spectrum will be based on the chemical composition of the plant, which are all derived from a limited number of EU approved genomes. We decided to offer our ENJOOY-CBD brand to consumers and publish the third-party laboratory analysis.

Cannabis flowers intended for smoking that have a high content of cannabidiol (CBD) and less than 1% THC can be legally sold and purchased. While THC is responsible for the intoxicating effect of cannabis, CBD has no psychotropic effect and is accordingly not covered by the Swiss Narcotics Act.

The consumption of CBD with more than 1% of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is generally prohibited in Switzerland. Unless you are a part of the government studies like the one being conducted by the University of Basel.

Yes, daily use can help improve your overall wellbeing and may help with frequent anxiety or trouble sleeping. For example, CBD may soothe your nervous system, and it’s easier to prevent a symptom from escalating.

Introducing CBD to your body is all about consistency. Consistency is important in any wellness routine. However, if you experience any side effects, you should always consult a pharmacist or doctor.

People considering or taking CBD products should always mention their use to their doctor, particularly if they are taking other medications or have underlying medical conditions, such as liver disease, kidney disease, epilepsy, heart issues, a weakened immune system, or are on medications that can weaken the immune system (such as cancer medications).

A pharmacist is a great resource to help you learn about a potential interaction with a supplement, an herbal product (many of which have their own drug interactions), or an over-the-counter or prescription medication. Don’t assume that just because something is natural, it is safe and trying it won’t hurt. 

Every product must undergo a mandatory notification process to the Federal Office of Public Health before it can be made available for sale. This notification includes a comprehensive laboratory analysis that verifies the non-psychotropic properties of the product and ensures the absence of nicotine. Additionally, the packaging of these products must adhere to specific requirements.

To promote consumer awareness and safety, retail packs must prominently display warning pictures, similar to those found on cigarette packs. These warning pictures should cover a minimum of 35% of the front and 50% of the back of the packaging area. Moreover, the packaging must clearly state the information “< 1% THC” and “Plant-based products, without tobacco” in accordance with the guidelines outlined by the Federal Office of Public Health (FOPH, 2017).
