What is the endocannabinoid system (ECS)?

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a complex cell-signaling system identified in the early 1990s by researchers exploring THC, a well-known cannabinoid. Cannabinoids are compounds found in the cannabis plant. Experts are still trying to fully understand the ECS. We do know it plays a role in regulating a range of functions and processes, i.e., sleep, mood, discomfort, etc.

Is hemp a cannabis?

Yes, hemp falls under the umbrella of cannabis. Cannabis that contains higher levels of Delta-9 THC is known as marijuana, while cannabis with trace amounts of it is identified as hemp.

How does hemp and marijuana differ ?
The growth cycle and look of the plants are different, but the most significant difference is with the amount and type of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Legal hemp contains Delta 8 THC at a level of less than 0.3%. This level of THC is not psychoactive. The Marijuana plant contains Delta 9 THC at a level of 5-35%. This level is psychoactive.
How do cannabinoids work in the body?
Cannabinoids interact with receptors found throughout the body to achieve certain physiological effects. There are over 100 known cannabinoids in the cannabis plant.
What is CBG?

Cannabigerol (CBG) is the parent molecule from which all other cannabis compounds are synthesized: it is often called the “mother” of cannabinoids. As the “mother,” CBG could be more powerful, or at least offer a more comprehensive range of benefits, than other cannabinoids. Many manufacturers believe CBG creates a powerful “entourage effect” when combined with CBD. This effect refers to cannabinoids working in conjunction with one another and enhancing the individual properties of each.

What is CBD?

Cannabidiol (CBD) is known for its benefits on human and animal health and can affect nearly every biological process via the endocannabinoid system. CBD is available in large amounts in both marijuana and hemp, and thus easily cultivated. High-quality CBD-rich hemp flowers that could easily be mistaken for top-shelf marijuana.

For anyone looking to dip their toe into the cannabinoid world, CBD is widely considered the safest place to start.

All 50 states have officially legalized the use of hemp-based CBD products.

What is CBN?
Cannabinol (CBN) is a mildly psychoactive, nonintoxicating cannabinoid only available in trace amounts in cannabis. CBN is known as a potent antibacterial agent with sedative properties. Researchers believe CBN binds with a particular cannabinoid receptor of the endocannabinoid system “that can help enhance sleep.”
What if I am required to take a drug test?
You must use your discretion before using Amish Health and Wellness products. Even though our products are produced from legal hemp, drug tests are unable to discern the type of cannabinoid showing on the test.
Can CBD, CBG, or CBN get me high?
No they cannot as the dosages we recommend. These cannabinoids are a phytocannabinoid that are non-psychotoxic (they do not result in feeling of euphoria) and have a remarkably safe profile. CBN is known as a potent antibacterial agent with sedative properties.
What is the difference between hempseed oil and hemp oil?
Hempseed oil is manufactured from hemp seeds and contains low to no concentrations of cannabinoids. Hempseed oil is used for a variety of things such as beauty products, lubricants, paints, and as a food. Hemp oil is an extraction from hemp plant parts. This oil may contain higher concentrations of phytocannabinoids such as CBD.
