class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/smartific.nl\/cbd-producten\/\">CBD<\/a> is one of about 115 different cannabinoids found in cannabis plants. Cannabinoids, also known as phytocannabinoids, interact with your body and brain through a very complex endocannabinoid system (ECS) that is likely involved in the regulation of physiological and cognitive processes (including fertility-pregnancy, various immune system activities, appetite, mood, memory, and even pain perception). It is believed that our endocannabinoid systems produce our own \u201ccannabinoids,\u201d known as endocannabinoids. Cannabinoids derived from cannabis plants (phytocannabinoids), when ingested, will enhance our naturally occurring cannabinoid production and\/or will behave the same way our internally produced cannabinoids would.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"kan_cbd_je_high_maken\"><\/span><strong>Can CBD make you high?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No. Cannabidiol, or CBD, is known for its many health benefits, and CBD does not have psychoactive, \u201ceuphoric,\u201d or other mind-altering effects like THC does. CBD is typically used as a \u201crelaxing yet non-intoxicating agent,\u201d and most users simply notice feelings of relaxation, calmness, and ease. In the vast majority of cases, the effects are not comparable to those of THC.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although CBD does not get you \u201chigh\u201d like THC, cannabidiol has other effects that will influence your state, which is why we recommend starting with very low doses, learning how CBD personally affects you, and only then adjusting how you want to use CBD.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"hoe_voel_je_je_bij_cbd\"><\/span><strong>How do you feel about CBD?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cannabidiol (CBD) is known to make you calmer, more focused, and relaxed. Most first-time users report feeling more \u201ccarefree,\u201d as if their life struggles and burdens are lifted from their shoulders, allowing users to relax and concentrate better without feeling intoxicated or experiencing anxiety\/stress.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most noticeable relaxation occurs in the muscles, as CBD releases muscle tension. Another very noticeable CBD effect could be an increase in sleep quality and making you less tired in the morning after using CBD. Under the influence of CBD, you might feel more at ease, and furthermore, CBD is not psychoactive, so you will never get high from taking Cannabidiol.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other possible CBD effects include: may help with insomnia, reduced anxiety, less pain, neutralizing personal discomfort, stress relief, disappearance of negative feelings, anti-inflammatory effects.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is_cbd_psychoactief\"><\/span><strong>IS CBD PSYCHOACTIVE?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the vast majority of cases, CBD does not exhibit psychoactive effects among users.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When used in its pure form, without THC, Cannabidiol will not intoxicate you and you will not get high. That being said, CBD can have relaxing properties, so you should evaluate yourself carefully and not drive or operate heavy machinery during\/after using CBD.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"wat_is_het_entourage_effect\"><\/span><strong>What is the entourage effect?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The entourage effect is a well-documented phenomenon that occurs when CBD is taken in combination with other cannabinoids found in cannabis plants. There are many different terpenes present in cannabis plants, and when different cannabinoids are taken together with other active ingredients in cannabis\/hemp plants, the effects are much more effective than when taking the cannabinoids separately.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In principle, the theory is that compounds in cannabis work better when taken together rather than separately. The expectation is therefore that you will always get better results when taking cannabinoids together, instead of using them individually in purified form.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"bevatten_cbd_producten_thc\"><\/span><strong>Do CBD products contain THC?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most CBD products are intentionally made THC-free because most CBD users are looking for relaxing properties and health benefits and do not want the psychoactive, mind-altering effects (known as a \u201chigh\u201d or \u201cstoned\u201d) that THC would bring.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"kun_je_thc_en_cbd_mengen\"><\/span><strong>Can you mix THC and CBD?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most cannabis plants naturally maintain a balance between these two compounds, which means that if a plant had 10% THC, it would have a comparable amount of CBD, 10% CBD. Over the past 20 years, large-scale recreational cannabis cultivation and plant breeding (hybridization) have allowed us to create increasingly THC-rich cannabis strains (which means a stronger \u201chigh\u201d for recreational users), but at the same time, CBD levels in most popular cannabis strains grown today have dropped dramatically.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recreatieve cannabis soorten CBD\/THC zouden in Europa gemiddeld ~15%THC\/3%CBD kunnen zijn, terwijl het in Noord-Amerika zelfs ~25%THC\/0,2%CBD kan zijn. De meeste ervaren cannabisgebruikers kunnen dit bevestigen met opmerkingen zoals \u2013 \u201cBij super hoge THC-rassen voelt de high minder natuurlijk en synthetisch aan, in plaats van dat je naar een koele droomachtige rustige plek wordt gebracht, word je met een stok geraakt en in de snelle lift gegooid die niet stopt met omhoog gaan\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Furthermore, the entourage effect tells us that you can expect better results when different cannabinoids are taken together in a 1\/1 ratio or a similar ratio.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"hoe_lang_duurt_het_voordat_cbd_werkt\"><\/span><strong>How long does it take for CBD to work?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Generally, you should feel the CBD (Cannabidiol) effects in your body within the first 1-5 hours. The timing can be longer or shorter, based on the method of intake, dosage, body health, metabolism, sensitivity, body mass, and many other factors.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most experts agree that the most beneficial use of CBD can be achieved through daily consistency, meaning you should use CBD in a consistent dose for multiple days to feel the full spectrum of CBD effects. It is also known that different people can react differently, and some may experience very noticeable strong and fast-onset effects after the first use, while others may have only a mild reaction, even after continuous weekly use.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Therefore, we recommend starting slowly with a low CBD dose (10-30 mg per day) and only increasing consumption after monitoring\/analyzing your body and personal reactions for at least a week or two.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"bevatten_alle_marihuanaplanten_cbd\"><\/span><strong>Do all marijuana plants have CBD?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In most cases, the vast majority of Cannabis\/Hemp plants will contain most of the ~115 possible cannabinoids. The biggest difference will be the concentration of these cannabinoids, meaning almost all cannabis strains will have some amount of CBD in them.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the last 20 years, the recreational cannabis industry has focused primarily on growing THC-rich cannabis, leading to much higher average THC content in most strains. In most cases, this has meant rapidly decreasing CBD levels. Therefore, most marijuana plants currently have high THC\/low CBD combinations.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This only began to change in the last few years, with the advent of CBD medical trials and general public opinion shifting towards the health benefits of cannabis. In most cases, the reason there's a cannabis legalization wave sweeping across the globe has everything to do with CBD properties and nothing to do with recreational THC use.

Most cannabinoids work by mimicking other natural compounds (called endocannabinoids) that are commonly found in our bodies. Our endocannabinoid system naturally produces compounds that act on various receptors, these compounds are called endocannabinoids, and they primarily affect our nerves, brain, central nervous system, and immune cell functions.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Sources: Szaflarski JP, Bebin EM, Cannabis, cannabidiol, and epilepsy\u2013from receptors to clinical response.

CBD and THC are known as the \u201cmain balancing parts of cannabis\u201d because they are the most studied cannabinoids (among ~115 others) in every hemp\/cannabis plant. Why balancing parts? CBD is known to reduce the side effects of THC, and both compounds are known to be in balance in most naturally occurring cannabis strains, meaning that as THC levels increase in a crossbreeding process, CBD levels decrease, and vice versa.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This means that CBD and THC have multiple levels of intricate connections\/correlations that scientists are only beginning to discover and understand how these connections work together.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"wat_is_het_verschil_tussen_hennep_en_marihuana\"><\/span><strong>What is the difference between hemp and marijuana?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From a purely technical perspective, both hemp and marijuana are simply varieties of the Cannabis sativa plant. In a much deeper sense, there are significant differences between the two: the most important of these differences is usually that hemp plants are considered industrial cannabis plants with a THC content of no more than 0.2\u20130.3%. This makes them an agricultural resource for many industries, without the potential for recreational use. Most countries have strict rules and regulations regarding what is considered marijuana and what is considered hemp. Typically, these rules are based entirely on the plant\u2019s THC content.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main difference between hemp and marijuana is usually just the concentration of cannabinoids (THC, CBD, and similar compounds).

From a legal perspective, you should inform yourself about the legality of CBD in the country where you live.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"hoe_kies_je_een_cbd_product\"><\/span><strong>How to choose a CBD product?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most common factors are: the way you plan to use CBD (vape\/smoke, oral, edibles), CBD strength (based on the dosage you plan to take daily), flavor factors (do you like the cannabis taste or not?) along with a few other factors such as: how rich the CBD product is (does it only have pure CBD or also terpenes and other cannabinoids?).<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"wat_is_het_verschil_tussen_geisoleerde_cbd_olie_en_hele_plantaardige_of_full-spectrum_cbd_olie\"><\/span><strong>What is the difference between isolate CBD oil and whole plant or full-spectrum CBD oil?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Isolated CBD is just pure CBD filtered to not have any other compounds that the cannabis plant has (terpenes, cannabinoids, etc.), full-spectrum CBD oil usually has multiple different cannabinoids (like CBG, CBN, etc.) alongside many other ingredients that naturally grown cannabis plants possess.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Claims suggest that when taken with other cannabinoids, CBD's effects are richer and the substance becomes more potent. This theory is called \u201cThe Entourage Effect\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"wat_zijn_soorten_met_een_hoog_cbd_gehalte\"><\/span><strong>What are types with a high CBD content?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most well-known CBD strain is certainly Charlotte's Web, but there are other CBD-rich cannabis strains that are popular with CBD enthusiasts: ACDC, Harley Quinn, Harle-Tsu, Ringo's Gift, and many others. Most seed banks today have a separate selection of CBD-rich strains.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is_cbd_dominante_cannabissoort_beter_medicijn_dan_een_cannabissoort_met_50_cbd_en_50_thc-mix\"><\/span><strong>IS A CBD-DOMINANT CANNABIS STRAIN A BETTER MEDICINE THAN A CANNABIS STRAIN WITH A 50% CBD AND 50% THC MIX?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Theoretically, based on the \u201cEntourage Effect,\u201d the answer should be no. However, the major side effect of this method would be getting high due to the THC. That's not what the average CBD user wants. It all depends on your perspective. In most modern cases, the answer should be yes, CBD-dominant cannabis strains should be more useful when used as medicine compared to THC-rich cannabis strains.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is_cbd_legaal\"><\/span><strong>Is CBD legal?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CBD is legal in the Netherlands, where our products come from.
