CBD Product Breakdown: CBD Eye Drops
Have you heard of CBD Eye Drops?
A tip came through on a brand known as This Stuff is Good For You, from Las Vegas, NV.
We checked them out and discovered they sell CBD eye drops. Here is a break down of my concerns regarding this product.
What are Trichomes?
Whether considering the recreational or medical aspects of cannabis, the majority of therapeutic value of the plant comes from cannabinoids and terpenes. These “miracle compounds” that bring alleviation for a wide spectrum of conditions; from depression and gastrointestinal problems to epilepsy and cancerous tumors.
Terpenes Series: Pinene
Pinene is a terpene that can be found in pine needles, turpentine, orange peels, dill, basil, rosemary and of course… cannabis!
The smell/flavor it produces is… drumroll… pine! The flavor is pleasantly earthy. Whenever I smoke a pine flavored strain, I’ll close my eyes and feel like I am a woodland fairy in the middle of an enchanted forest.
Terpene’s Series: Beta-Caryophyllene
Have you ever heard of a terpene doing the job of a cannabinoid?
Beta-Caryophyllene has the ability to play the role of a cannabinoid through being capable of activating CB2 receptor sites within the endocannabinoid system. Activating the CB2 receptors reduces inflammation, which lessens pain and reduces damaging consequences caused by chronic inflammation.
