The fundamentals
For thousands of years, hemp has been used to make food, textiles, rope, and hundreds of other items. Today it’s found in over 25,000 products globally including food, beauty products, automotive parts, furniture, textiles, and construction supplies.
The hemp plant is naturally packed with incredibly powerful cannabinoids and terpenes that provide therapeutic benefits that we are just beginning to fully understand. The claims made by individuals around the world are beginning to paint a picture of how amazing this plant really is and what it can do for the planet and the people living on it.
Cannabidiol (CBD), the most abundant cannabinoid in hemp, is such a critical nutrient that our bodies have evolved an entire system to utilize this nutrient. Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of 113 active cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant - it works to relieve stress, reduce inflammation, and promote better sleep. By binding to the internal receptors of the body’s Endocannabinoid System (ECS), CBD helps regulate bodily and cognitive functions.
The Endocannabinoid System (ECS) is a group of endogenous cannabinoid receptors located in the brain and throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems,consisting of neuromodulatory lipids and their receptors.
There are two main types of receptors, CB1 and CB2. CB1 receptors are primarily located in the central nervous system and brains of mammals, and CB2 are generally found in the peripheral nervous system.
ECS works like the thermostat, switching the biochemical reactions on and off depending on the need as our bodies constantly strive for homeostasis*.
*Homeostasis, any self-regulating process by which biological systems tend to maintain stability while
adjusting to conditions that are optimal for survival.
Ornate is a broad spectrum, high CBD hemp extract that is organically grown by farms committed to organic practices. Our hemp is grown in Oregon, Minnesota, and Colorado to guarantee our most important ingredient (Hemp Extract) not only adheres to our stringent quality standards but is also scalable.
The potency of our Grapefruit and Peppermint oils are currently available in 1,000mg. Our Bacon (Pet) oil is available in 500mg.
Since our extract is food grade, it can be consumed as an edible, used as an ingredient in food or drinks, and applied topically or sensually. Most of our customers ingest Ornate CBD regularly, with 1-2 doses/day depending on their preferred potency.
Unfortunately, there is not enough data that tells us if it is safe or not to take CBD while you are pregnant. We always recommend speaking with your doctor first. The FDA has cautioned against pregnant women taking CBD. The full article can be read here.
As with any dietary supplement, we recommend consulting your doctor prior to using CBD for recommendations about use with existing medications and/or medical conditions.
If you’re new to CBD, we recommend starting with 10-15mg twice per day and adjusting as needed. Everyone is different. Some feel the effects of CBD with 10mg that others feel with 25mg. Starting low and slow allows you to find the dose that works best for you.
Yes, CBD is legal in all 50 states. Currently, per TSA.gov, CBD products using industrial hemp and containing less than 0.3% are allowed in carry on and checked bags.
Ornate products
We only use the best organic ingredients like Organic hemp seed oil, Organic essential oils, Organic MCT oils and a proprietary blend of THC-free* broad spectrum Hemp extract combined with polysaccharides from Organic Aloe to increase absorption and bioavailability.
Ornate's hemp is organically grown under the American sun using pesticide-free and non-GMO farming methods. Our hemp is derived from the highest quality plants grown in Oregon, Minnesota, and Colorado.
Ornate's product shows a wide array of cannabinoids in addition to CBD, such as CBG and CBDV as well as other beneficial properties from the hemp plant such as terpenes and plant fats.
Ornate uses Supercritical C02 (ScC02) extraction.
CO2 extraction is considered the gold standard for hemp processing because it doesn’t require solvents like ethanol, butane or propane, which inevitably leave residue behind. CO2 is carbon dioxide, just like the gas found in the air we breathe. After passing through the hemp plant and extracting all those essential nutrients, CO2 evaporates and no residuals are left behind – just pure, nutritious broad spectrum hemp extract.
No. Ornate CBD products are broad spectrum THC-free*. It has no psychoactive effect and will not get you stoned.
People choose to add a CBD to their daily regimen for many different reasons, some choose to add CBD for a specific reasons, while others take CBD to enhance their wellness. No mater the reason when taken with consistency, these cannabinoids will build up in your body helping to support your Endocannabinoid System.
Broad spectrum CBD is CBD that has been extracted from the cannabis plant with all of the other compounds from the plant except for THC. That means it contains terpenes, essential oils, and other cannabinoids from the plant. This should not result in intoxicating effects. And because there is no THC in broad spectrum CBD, it shouldn’t show up on a drug test. Please consult with your doctor and/or employer if this is a concern.
“THC-free”* means THC levels are too low to be detected by standard scientific instruments.
Ornate products meet the definition of hemp and contain less than 0.3% THC. However, depending on a lab’s testing procedures and limits allowed by an employer or government agency, it is possible that some THC could be reported on a drug test. If you have any concerns, we recommend speaking with your employer and testing facility before using Ornate products.
Yes! We send our extract and oil to be tested by a 3rd party lab so that our customers can be 100% confident in their purchase. These lab results confirm the potency of our oils (in mg) and other active cannabinoids; as well as the absence of pesticides, solvents, herbicides, fillers, etc. You can view the lab results for our extracts on each product page or by clicking this link.
LoQ (Limit of Quantitation) is term used to describe the smallest concentration of a measurand that can be reliably measured by an analytical procedure.
When reviewing Ornate's lab results "LoQ" means that levels are too low to be detected by standard scientific instruments.
Ornate never tests on animals (they’re our friends!)
Yes you can! Ornate’s Bacon flavored Pet CBD oil was created specifically with our furry friends in mind! CBD is great for animals dealing with anxiety, arthritis, or other health issues.
We recommend pets under 25lbs - 0.25mL (5 drops) per day and pets over 25lbs - 0.5mL (10 drops) per day. However if your dog or cat is already taking prescription medications, be sure to ask your veterinarian before administering CBD.
