5 Things You Should Know About Hemp
March 29, 2018
If you’re on this page, you might already know a thing or two about hemp. Buzzwords like hemp extract oil, CBD, and phytocannabinoids are being talked about a lot. Our Charlotte’s Web products — containing cannabidiol and other beneficial phytocompounds which is made into hemp oil and oil capsules — is all about hemp, literally. But today we’re getting to the root (pun!) of the topic.
Here are five cool things you might-not-but-definitely-should know about our favorite green thing.
1. Cleans soil and air
Most famously known for cleaning radioactive materials from the soil around the infamous nuclear reactor, Chernobyl, clearly the Mighty plant can clean up even the hottest (radioactive) mess.
This is a key reason that hemp is awe-inspiring, but it’s an even bigger reason that anyone consuming hemp products should ask: Where does my hemp come from? You need to know that it is grown in clean, tested and cared-for soil. Just like ours. We know where hemp comes from because we grow it ourselves and oversee its production every step of the way.
2. Can build buildings
3. Nearly no limit to the uses
4. People have used it for a lot of things for a long, long time
It was the OG material throughout human history. In fact, the word canvas (most of which were made from hemp) originates from a certain familiar Latin word, cannabis.
5. Knows how to help our bodies maintain a healthy balance
Because our hemp extract is pretty amazing, just as it is.
