CBD stands for cannabidiol. It is one of the natural compounds found in cannabis plants. CBD can be purchased and used in the UK, areas of Europe, parts of America, and beyond. This is because CBD is non-addictive and contains no psychoactive compounds (it can’t get you ‘high’). This is because CBD contains no THC. THC is the compound found in the hemp plant that does have psychoactive compounds. CBD comes in many different forms. Puresport makes CBD in oils, capsules and topicals (which are to be applied directly to the skin). These natural remedies are helping thousands of happy customers globally to discover the power of natural products to support their whole-body wellness. People use CBD for a range of reasons to help support a healthy mind and body. CBD is the topic of extensive scientific and medical research due to its increasing levels of popularity. These studies investigate the use of CBD and CBD products in helping people solve a range of wellbeing-related issues.

THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is a compound found in cannabis that is psychoactive. This means it can get you ‘high’ and is illegal in most countries. Puresport’s CBD is 0% THC, meaning there are no traces of THC in our CBD. This is verified by three separate independent labs. Further details of our stringent triple-batch testing can be found in our lab reports, which can be found below.

The main difference between CBD & THC is that CBD is legal in most countries, as it is non psychoactive (this means it doesn’t get you ‘high’). THC on the other hand, is psychoactive, meaning it does get you ‘high’, and is illegal in most countries. Another main difference is that people use CBD to enhance their wellness in relation to issues such sleep, muscle recovery, pain, stress, energy levels, and concentration. Whereas, most people taking THC will do so for recreational purposes.

WADA is the World Anti-Doping Association. Their job is to monitor and prevent the usage of performance-enhancing, illegal drugs in athletes. As CBD contains 0% THC, it is not classed as a banned substance. It is WADA’s role to maintain these standards, and the stringent testing CBD is subject to. Puresport is the most tested and trusted CBD in the world, setting and raising industry standards due to our rigorous testing process, and complete transparency in how we make our CBD and what is in it.

CBD binds to you Endocannabinoid System (ECS). The ECS is a set of receptors, which directly link to the Central Nervous System (CNS). The job of the CNS is to regulate messaging throughout the body and brain, helping key functions like hormonal regulation, sleep cycle, appetite, ability to focus, your pain receptors and more! CBD is a natural product, and the results and possible benefits of taking it can vary from person to person. The effects of CBD can also depend on the dosage of it taken.
