The Legal, Non-Prescription Alternative for Fast Relief

Cannanda is proud and excited to present one of our greatest innovations: our physician-formulated, multi-award-winning CB2™ blend is a legal, non-prescription alternative to cannabidiol (CBD) or used to enhance your CBD experience.

CBD is the popular cannabis compound that has significant health benefits, but lacks the intoxicating effects of its sister compound, THC. This means you get a number of incredible health benefits without feeling “high,” and it delivers these benefits by positively influencing the endocannabinoid system (ECS; the body’s master regulator of homeostasis).

Unfortunately, prior to legalization in Canada, CBD was only legally available by prescription only, or through black/grey-market cannabis dispensaries. Even after legalization in late 2018, CBD continues to be legally available only through controlled distribution from licensed outlets.

In order to bring these benefits to a growing number of individuals through open distribution, Cannanda’s research and development has created our proprietary CB2™ terpene blend. By harnessing the power of terpenes in this precisely formulated blend, we can optimize the function of the ECS through the activation of one of its main receptors, a receptor called cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2).

However, if you’re already CBD user, the benefits could be even greater! There is a perfect synergy between Cannanda’s CB2 and CBD products (read more below).

Activating the CB2 Receptor
CB2 is one of the two main receptors of the ECS. There are numerous benefits to activating this receptor without activating the CB1 receptor (the receptor THC activates, and is responsible for the “high” associated with cannabis). The following is a small list of studies illustrating the benefits of CB2 activation.

Enhance your CBD Experience
As mentioned, CB2™ can greatly enhance the benefits you already receive from CBD products. Here’s how:

  • Activating CB2 receptors is not how CBD is thought to work. This is because CBD only has a very weak ability to bind to CB2 receptors.
  • Newer studies suggest CBD may influence cannabinoid receptor shape and/or inhibit the proteins that remove our endocannabinoids. This means our own endocannabinoids can then activate CB2 receptors, and could be how we get the benefits from CBD products.
  • However, if we can supply the body with external sources of compounds that directly activate CB2 receptors (such as those found in our CB2™ Wellness blend, we can amplify those benefits. It’s actually the perfect combination!
  • Even better, the CB2™ Hemp Seed Oil version provides the exact essential fatty acids that our bodies use to create more of our own endocannabinoids!

Suggested Uses:
Best used through direct inhalation (place about 3 drops in your hand, rub hands together, cup around nose/mouth, and take slow, deep breaths). For sublingual use, place 2 or 3 drops under your tongue, and hold it there for about a minute before swallowing. May be used as a natural flavour (for example, 2-5 drops may be be added to a tablespoon of any edible oil of your choosing), or even used topically for targeted local relief (optional: use a tiny bit of a carrier oil to slow evaporation of the terpenes).
