Learn: CBD, CBDA & Rosin Oil

Cannabidiol (CBD) is a naturally occurring compound found in hemp plants and has many potential therapeutic benefits. CBD is non-psychoactive, meaning it does not induce any feelings of being “high.” Thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, compounds derived from hemp plants are legal and consumers can enjoy the many benefits this natural compound provides. In fact, CBD is one of 113 cannabinoids found in hemp, and research into their many possible uses is ongoing.

CBD is commonly used to address anxiety, and for patients who suffer through the misery of insomnia, studies suggest that CBD may help with both falling asleep and staying asleep. CBD may offer an option for treating different types of chronic pain. A study from the European Journal of Pain showed, using an animal model, CBD applied on the skin could help lower pain and inflammation due to arthritis. Another study demonstrated the mechanism by which CBD inhibits inflammatory and neuropathic pain, two of the most difficult types of chronic pain to treat. More study in humans is needed in this area to substantiate the claims of CBD proponents about pain control.

Rosin is a honey/wax-like substance that is the main ingredient in our CBD oils. Rosin carries all the CBD molecules and all the minor cannabinoids and terpenes present in the hemp plant. CBD rosin is the concentrated compound from hemp-extracted using the careful application of pressure and heat to the cured and dried parts of the hemp plant, in our case, the flowers.

MONTKUSH CBD oils are made in our own processing facility in Vermont. Once the hemp is harvested from our farm, it is sent to be pressed to extract the CBD rosin. The rosin is mixed with organic coconut oil as a carrying oil. You can learn more about the benefits of using coconut oil as a carrier oil here. Once we have mixed the CBD rosin with the coconut oil, we filter it, bottle it, and that's it!

Our CBD comes from Vermont certified organic hemp, grown on our own farm near Plainfield, Vermont. We grow using top quality hemp strains that result in quality full spectrum CBD rosin.

Chemical-free extraction involves obtaining CBD rosin from hemp flowers using nothing more than heat and pressure. By exerting more than 30 tons of pressure and low heat, we extract pure CBD rosin from our hemp flower. This leaves us with a purely natural product that keeps intact minor cannabinoids and terpenes alongside high amounts of CBD. All extracted without having to use any chemicals.

You can take our CBD oil sublingual (under your tongue) or add it to your favorite beverage. If you take it sublingually we recommend holding it under your tongue for at least 30 seconds. To learn more about dosing and how much CBD might be right for you click here.

The right Milligram(mg) amount depends on what effects you are looking for. Our CBD oil can help manage stress, and inflammation enhances mood, and promote a good night's sleep. To learn more about what bottle and dose might be right for you should check our Dosing Guide.

The term full spectrum means the product contains CBD and other minor cannabinoids and terpenes that, when taken together, work in tandem, providing a more comprehensive effect than just CBD alone. 

It is important to make sure your CBD is 3rd party lab tested. Having CBD 3rd party lab-tested independently verifies the purity quality and amount of CBD present in each bottle of CBD oil. All of our 3rd party lab results can be found here.
