Where does CBN come from?
Like CBD, CBN comes from industrial hemp. Known for their high CBD content, hemp plants also produce small amounts of more than 100 cannabinoids. CBN is mostly found in aged cannabis plants, resulting from the natural breakdown and decomposition of THC over time.
Plant-based cannabinoids work with the body’s own endocannabinoid system and other organs by relaying messages to create a balanced state of homeostasis and equilibrium. CB1 receptors are present in the nervous system, brain, connective tissues, and other organs. CB2 receptors are present in the immune system. Activating these endocannabinoid receptors helps normalize and regulate physiological processes like appetite, mood and much more. Cannabinoids like CBD, CBN and CBG bind to these receptors in a variety of ways.
- Both interact with our bodies’ endocannabinoid system
- Both are non-psychoactive and THC-free
- Both are excellent for daily use
- CBN works with the CB1 receptors, with a higher affinity for CB2
