What is the difference between Hemp, Vijaya leaf, Cannabis, CBD and THC?
Cannabis - It is the term given to a family of flowering plants which are further divided into three species - Cannabis sativa, Cannabis indica, and Cannabis ruderalis.
Hemp - Hemp is a specific type of cannabis known scientifically as Cannabis sativa L.
Vijaya leaf - The Ayurvedic name of Hemp is Vijaya and its leaf is the Vijaya leaf which contains many beneficial cannabinoids like CBD, CBG etc.
CBD - Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the many cannabinoids found in the Cannabis sativa plant family. CBD is not impairing, meaning it does not cause a “high”. Instead, it has many known medical benefits.
THC - Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the main psychoactive compound found in some of the Cannabis plants like marijuana. It's what makes people feel "high."
Will using Hemp based products give me a high?
No. Usually hemp based products have very negligible amounts of THC (the psychoactive cannabinoid that gives a “high”). At Hampa, we use the best quality hemp procured from the Himalayas and ensure that our products go through very stringent tests and have minimal traces of THC and are within legally acceptable limits of 0.3%.

All oral medicines which contain a Schedule E-1 substance, are required by law to be taken under medical supervision only. These can be purchased against a valid prescription from a registered medical practitioner.
How does CBD work in my body?
CBD works by interacting with the EndoCannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS spans throughout the body and plays a key role in various bodily functions. For example, the ECS impacts inflammation, metabolism, and immune system response, along with appetite stimulation and even how the body responds to pain. When ingested, CBD reacts with the endocannabinoid system, mainly the CB1 and CB2 receptors. It promotes healthy responses to pain, stress, and inflammation. In turn, this means less pain, less inflammation, lowered stress levels, and other whole-body benefits.
