FAQs - What is CBD?
CBD (short for cannabidiol) is a non-intoxicating compound found in relative abundance in hemp and cannabis. It is known to support the body in many different functions, and is the main active ingredient in hemp-based products, including oils, edibles, topicals, and skin care products.
CBD oil interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS), a natural function within our body which helps to regulate a wide range of cognitive and physiological processes, including mood, appetite, sleep and pain.
Within the endocannabinoid system is a network of cannabinoid receptors in the brain and central nervous system. When CBD oil is consumed, CBD and other cannabinoids contained in the oil naturally bind to these receptors and activate them, allowing them to support numerous mental and physical functions.
You can buy CBD oil from Naturecan, which has websites in over 30 countries globally. Naturecan sells pure CBD oil in six different strengths, with prices ranging from £30 to £249. While there are other brands who sell CBD oil at lower prices, many do not offer CBD oil that is pure and free from synthetic additives.
Naturecan’s CBD oil is an all-natural, broad-spectrum distillate that has non-detectable levels of THC and contains no synthetic material.
Our oil is currently only available on our official website and on selected partner websites. We do not offer the CBD oils on Amazon, as the selling of hemp products is currently not possible. Payment via PayPal is currently not possible either, as PayPal does not want to process payments from CBD online shops.
CBD oil is suitable for people who want a stronger dosage of CBD.
CBD oils offer a safe and effective way to manage a range of medical conditions, including inflammation, anxiety, chronic pain or insomnia.
CBD oils should not be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding to avoid any potential risks to the baby's development, as CBD can pass through the placental barrier. Furthermore, if you have a pre-existing medical condition or take prescribed medication, ask a medical professional before use.
In principle, CBD is also suitable for children, as the intoxicating effect of THC is eliminated. Nevertheless, the intake should be discussed with a doctor.
No. CBD is 100% non-intoxicating and produces no mind-altering effects. THC is responsible for the "high" associated with cannabis, but it is filtered out during our complex purification process.
No. CBD does not produce any intoxicating or addiction-related effects.

CBD oil affects everyone differently. While there have been no serious reported side effects of using CBD, it is recommended that you start with a low dose and gradually increase it if you do not experience any side effects.
Side effects of CBD oil can include:
- nausea and vomiting
- dry mouth
- drowsiness
- changes in appetite
- mood alterations
- anxiety
- dizziness
- diarrhoea
CBD oil can also increase liver enzyme levels, so people with liver disease should use CBD products under the expert supervision and guidance of a doctor with regular blood liver enzyme checks.
In addition, CBD oil should not be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding to avoid any potential risks to the baby's development, as CBD can pass through the placental barrier.
The price of CBD oil is determined in large part by the costs of cultivation, extraction, and certification.
We use highly advanced technology to extract CBD from the hemp plant, and also to purify it, which makes the production of CBD oil a very expensive process.
In addition, CBD products are usually heavily taxed, and there are also various costs associated with product testing and the legal process for hemp farming.
Yes.
All mammals have an endocannabinoid system (ECS) that keeps the body in a balanced state by regulating essential psychological and physiological functions. CBD interacts with the ECS in a similar way for both animals and humans.
Initial studies have shown that CBD can help with a number of pet conditions. If you want to learn more about CBD for pets, check out our blog post: "Is CBD Safe For Your Pets?".
In the UK, any product derived from cannabis containing less than 0.2% THC is regarded as safe and legal for consumption.
Yes, CBD is safe to consume.
According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), “CBD is generally well tolerated with a good safety profile... There is no evidence of recreational use of CBD, or any public health-related problems”.
CBD is not an intoxicating substance and does not cause the ‘high’ usually associated with cannabis. It therefore has no potential for abuse. Another major cannabinoid called Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is responsible for that ‘high’ and all our products are tested to the highest standard to ensure that they contain safe and non-detectable levels of THC.
As CBD oil only contains traces of THC (the primary intoxicating compound present in hemp) it does not produce any mind-altering effects or impair cognitive functioning. This means that it is completely safe and legal to drive after taking CBD.
