Frequently Asked Questions

CBD stands for cannabidiol, a compound found naturally in hemp plants. Unlike THC (the active cannabinoid in marijuana), CBD is not intoxicating which means it will not get you high. CBD interacts with a series of receptors in your body known as the Endocannabinoid System (ECS). The ECS relates to a number of important systems in your body and helps keep your internal rhythms in optimal balance.

If the CBD product is broad-spectrum, it will have less than 0.01mg THC. If the product is isolate, there will be zero THC. If the product is full-spectrum, it will have less than 0.3% THC, the federally legal limit for industrial hemp plants.

No. CBD is not intoxicating. THC is the compound that causes a high and all of our products have less than the federally legal limit of 0.3% THC. Our broad spectrum and isolate products have even less. These minuscule amounts of THC aren’t enough to cause a high when taken as directed.

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a group of receptors throughout your body. These receptors work with cannabinoids made by your body, and also those made by plants. The ECS helps keep your body’s internal systems regulated and in balance.

Green Roads works with facilities that use a variety of cutting-edge extraction methods, including CO2 extraction, to get our ingredients from hemp plants grown on American farms.

The defining difference between marijuana and hemp is the percentage of THC. They are both types of cannabis plants, but industrial hemp is a plant with less than 0.3% THC by dry weight while marijuana has far more than that. The CBD found in Green Roads products has been derived from industrial hemp and is legal at the federal level.

This varies by product. We recommend you check the label of your specific product.

Green Roads CBD oil can be used to help promote a sense of calm and support the management of normal day-to-day stress. Our products may also be able to support focus and help maintain normal emotional balance. Green Roads CBD products are not designed to treat, cure, or diagnose any form of anxiety disorders, mental health conditions, or other medical ailments.

If you are taking any medications, we recommend you consult with your physician prior to using CBD products. For the safest and most effective use of CBD, use pharmacist-formulated CBD products from a trusted manufacturer like Green Roads. Using high-grade CBD with professional medical guidance is the best way to make the most of your CBD products.

We choose not to own farms, and instead have strong relationships with multiple farms in the United States. This gives us the advantage of choosing the best hemp plants for our products and rejecting any raw materials that do not meet our standards.

Green Roads was established in 2013.

No, it does not need to be refrigerated. We recommend storing it at room temperature.

Green Roads is the first CBD company founded by a licensed compounding pharmacist in the United States. We set the gold standard for self-regulation in the rapidly evolving CBD industry. Our first commitment is to help each person find the healthiest version of themselves through the power of plants.

When used properly, Green Roads’ full-spectrum CBD oil should not cause a high. Our Full Spectrum CBD oil has up to the federally legal limit of 0.3% THC, but this tiny amount is not enough to cause a high.

Even though our concentrations are below the federally legal limit, we recommend you do not take any CBD products if you are required to take a THC drug test for work, medical or personal reasons. This is because some tests do not properly distinguish between CBD and THC.

Green Roads CBD oil is better than other CBD oils on the market because it's a better formula, made with better ingredients. Our CBD comes from US-farmed hemp plants with certificates of analysis for quality. While many brands slap their logo on an off-the-shelf oil from the same manufacturer, Green Roads makes its own unique, proprietary blend, created by the company’s co-founder, a licensed compounding pharmacist. The recipe uses six carefully chosen ingredients rather than the standard two. Green Roads CBD oil is designed to offer better absorption and flavor. Both the ingredients and whole finished products are tested for quality by an independent laboratory. Use the QR code on any package to review the results of the test.

CBD has not been known to cause extreme hunger or the condition colloquially known as "the munchies."

If you are pregnant or nursing, we advise you to consult your personal healthcare professionals before using any CBD product.
