Healios CBD

For a Balanced & Radiant Lifestyle

We offer cutting-edge, organic, full spectrum hemp products. We are a family-owned business operated by Kristen & Michael Norton, created for you and your family. We were driven to build a fully transparent company for wellness-minded people to discover and enjoy hemp products of the highest available quality, after being inspired by our own firsthand experiences with full spectrum hemp.

One of our most important goals is to create a better environment for all of us, both inside and out, so we developed the Healios Sunflower Project. With every Healios purchase, we give away one packet of sunflower seeds. Why sunflowers? Researchers discovered that sunflowers, like hemp, have the power to clean soil and oxygenate air through a process known as phytoremediation.

What’s CBD?

CBD is short for cannabidiol, which is a chemical compound found in the hemp plant. CBD is just one of over 100 cannabinoids, which are characterized by their ability to affect the body’s Endocannabinoid System.

What’s the Endocannabinoid System?

You probably remember the systems of the body from biology class back in the day: cardiovascular, muscular, nervous, digestive, and so on. The Endocannabinoid System (or ECS) or only discovered in the 1990s, which is why you may have never heard of it until now. Scientists have identified it as an important molecular system that helps us maintain homeostasis—in other words, your physical equilibrium.

It didn’t take long for the U.S. government to decide that there was real value in the discovery of this system, so in 2003, it patented cannabidiol (and all other cannabinoids) as neuroprotectants and antioxidants, meaning that they protect against nerve injury and defend against harmful molecules known as free radicals. The National Institute of Health has continued studying cannabinoids, and their findings are all favorable for a multitude of usages. In fact, a nonprofit called Project CBD examined the wealth of peer-reviewed scientific research, and concluded that cannabis oil may be therapeutic for individuals with conditions such as:

pain
inflammation
anxiety
sleep disorders
and many others!

So really, what’s old is new again, because hemp has been used for everything from food to clothing to medicine since ancient times. Fun fact: the first recorded use of cannabis as medicine was made by Chinese Emperor Shen Neng in 2737 BCE.

And even though hemp and marijuana come from the same flowering plant (a.k.a. cannabis), our CBD is organically grown to be free of additives and preservatives, and completely non-psychoactive. Here at Healios, we are passionate about helping people lead happier, healthier lives, and we firmly believe that our organic CBD products can do just that.
