FAQs

Question 1

What’s the difference between CBD, THC, Hemp & Marijuana?

Answer

CBD is one of the many cannabinoids that occurs in a species of plant known as cannabis. The male cannabis plant is called hemp, and the female cannabis plant is called marijuana. Both hemp and marijuana contain cannabinoids, which are known to have many medicinal purposes. THC is a particular cannabinoid that is known to produce a “high” or a psychoactive effect. However, only marijuana has a large concentration of THC. The United States regulates the amount of THC in CBD, requiring that all manufacturers have 0 -.3%. Rescue CBD uses nanotechnology and is THC free to prevent any.

Question 2

What is nano CBD? Why is it better for my pet?

Answer

Nano CBD is CBD oils that are produced using nanotechnology. When nano CBD is produced, the CBD oil particles are separated into tiny molecules and coated with a special carrier so that they stabilize. When particle sizes are smaller, they dissolve more easily in water. This makes it easier for your pet’s saliva to break down the CBD so that it can be more efficiently absorbed into their system. Since the system of a dog is 80% water and the body system of a cat is 67%, water solubility has a dramatic impact on how efficiently your pet absorbs CBD. Maximum absorption ensures that your pet can derive the most benefits from CBD.

Question 3

What is broad-spectrum CBD oil?

Answer

Broad-Spectrum CBD oils contain all of the compounds that occur naturally in the plant. If a CBD product is an isolate, only the CBD cannabinoids will be extracted when producing the oil. The reason why broad-spectrum CBD oil is preferable to isolates is due to what scientists call the entourage effect. The entourage effect states that cannabinoids are better absorbed when they are consumed with other cannabinoids that they typically occur with. Absorption is an important factor in how effective the CBD will be.

The beauty of broad-spectrum CBD is that it is made from a hemp plant and not a marijuana plant. This means that broad-spectrum CBD can offer the full benefit of a full-range of cannabinoids and flavonoids without containing THC.

Question 4

Why is third-party testing so important?

Answer

Because hemp-derived CBD products for pets are not regulated by the FDA, there is a lot of opportunities for unethical companies to make false claims about the quality, purity, or safety of their products. When choosing a product that has been third-party tested, you are ensuring that the product has been reviewed by an unbiased and reputable lab to support the product’s claims. Settling for a product that has not undergone third-party testing increases the risk of purchasing an ineffective or unsafe product.

Question 5

Does my pet need to be ill or in pain to use CBD oil?

Answer

No! CBD is a great choice for a regular supplement even if your pet is not sick or in pain. This is because CBD works with your pet’s endocannabinoid system to promote homeostasis. Supporting your pet’s endocannabinoid system with CBD is an excellent way to maintain a healthy lifestyle for your pet, as well as possibly preventing future ailments.

Question 6

How do I give my pet CBD products?

Answer

CBD oil can be administered directly into your pet’s mouth or concealed in food, water, or treats. You can also use salves and balms on your pet’s skin to treat localized areas of discomfort. Read our Pet Parent’s Guide to Administering CBD.

Question 7

What are some of the ailments that CBD might help?

Answer

According to countless testimonials, CBD has been effective in improving a number of chronic conditions, including (but not limited to) pain, neuropathy, arthritis pain, inflammation, stress, seizures, anxiety, separation anxiety, allergies, autoimmune disease, and cancer. By acting on your pet’s endocannabinoid system, CBD can disrupt the disease systems that are causing your pet pain and discomfort.

Question 8

Will CBD give my pet issues in the future?

Answer

In many cases, CBD has less potential side effects than other treatments. However, as with any medication or supplement, it is important to weigh the risks and benefits. While trends in available evidence seem to suggest that CBD is incredibly safe for dogs and cats, it is important to consult your vet before giving your pet any kind of supplement. In some studies, researchers noted that CBD use in pets caused an elevation of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in liver bloodwork. However, it is still unclear if this elevation is clinically significant enough to cause long-term harm. A discussion with your vet will help you to determine if this is a concern for your pet.

Question 9

What are terpenes?

Answer

Terpenes are oils secreted by a plant that give it a unique color and smell. Different strains of cannabis plants produce different terpenes, which accounts for the wide variety of smells and flavors found among the different strains. In addition to affecting the color, smell, and flavor of the plant, terpenes may also determine the effects that the plant will produce. Some terpenes are thought to illicit calming and relaxing effects. Many cannabis labs now test for terpenes, which can provide insight into what kind of effects are produced from consuming the plant.

Question 10

How should I store my CBD? What is the shelf life?

Answer

Proper storage is important to increase the shelf life of your CBD. Improper storage can lead to a decrease in quality over time. For CBD oil, it is important to store the bottle upright, in a space that is cool and not exposed to direct light or moisture. Do not keep CBD near windows or appliances that get hot. For best results, keep your CBD oil in the fridge. Make sure the bottle or package is sealed tight to avoid air exposure. CBD oil that is stored properly can last up to two years.
