CBD, or cannabidiol, is a non-intoxicating and non-psychoactive compound found in cannabis plants. The cannabis plants contain over 100 different types of cannabinoids like CBD, such as THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol), the psychoactive compound, and many more that have yet to be fully discovered and understood.

​

The cannabis plant family can be separated into two main species; Hemp and Marijuana. Hemp plants normally consist of high levels of CBD and low levels of THC. While marijuana plants are the opposite and consist of low levels of CBD and high levels of THC compounds. ESG products are derived from hemp plants that contain less than 0.2% THC and over 20% CBD. This makes our products comply with legal limits worldwide and also ensures safety by eliminating any intoxicating effects.

CBD isolates is the purest form of CBD available. Usually extracted into a crystalline powder, isolates are at least 99.9% pure CBD. This makes it the safest option to reap the benefits from the cannabis plant, as there are no THC or other compounds in it. The absence of THC ensures that it is impossible to get "high" or have suffered from any induced psychoactive effect through any method of consumption. CBD isolates can be used in a multitude of ways, including as an ingredient for many consumer products in order to further enhance the consumer's experience.

The Phytocannabinoids found in cannabis allow different body systems to reach a dynamic balance again

CBD is considered as one of the greatest wellness phenomena of this generation. The human body's Endocannabinoid receptors react with CBD to create a chemical in our body called Endocannabinoids. According to research, this chemical helps our body to maintain a balance and regulates nerve functions, immune system, and circulatory system.
