FAQ

What is CBD commonly used to support?
Stress, Sleep, Pain, Mood, Balance
What product should I buy for sleep issues?

Any oral CBD product, at a high enough dose, may cause somnolence (aka sleepiness). That means any of our products can be used to support restfulness. That said, if you’re looking for a product tailored to this need, try our Vanilla Dream tincture, which has additional terpenes and botanicals formulated to encourage rest.

What product should I buy for anxiety or stress?

Don’t panic! We’ve got you covered. Any of our internal CBD products (softgels, tinctures, or gummies) are great additions to your overall mental wellness routine. If you deal with a lot of stress, you know that you can’t always predict when it will arrive, so we usually suggest fast-acting tinctures. Our all day chill-out tincture is the Old Fashioned Orange - formulated to promote tranquility.

What product should I buy for pain?

To support your pain management routine, we suggest both an internal and topical product. Internal products are softgels, gummies, and tinctures, and topical products include roll-ons and creams. Any of our products can be used for this, but we highly suggest our Cherry Syrup tincture, which has a particularly soothing quality.

What product should I buy for depression?

If you are finding yourself in need of a boost in energy, our Pineapple Cake contains limonene which may produce a sense of energy and focus. It also works well as a workout enhancer for the same reasons!

What’s special about Dr. Damas CBD?
Dr. Damas CBD is organic, non-GMO, vegan, and cruelty free! Our hemp is grown, cleanly extracted, and bottled all on one farm and from one strain (an ACDC/Afghani Kush cross). We add terpenes to enhance our products' benefits, and we third party test every batch and include all COA’s on our website.
What is a COA?
A "Certificate of Authenticity" is a report from a manufacturer accompanied by a lab analysis. It provides concrete assurances of quality checks and cannabinoid contents.
Can I use CBD while pregnant?
Yes, but there have not been long term studies to evaluate complete safety. Continued use can produce positive drug test results, which can create legal complications in the event of a premature birth. Always consult with your OBGYN before use while pregnant.
Can I use CBD while breastfeeding?

Yes, although small amounts of cannabinoids may appear in breast milk. Always consult with your pediatrician before use while breastfeeding.

Can kids use CBD?
Parents should consult with their pediatrician or another qualified doctor first. Parents should avoid full-spectrum CBD as it may produce a positive drug test for THC.
Is CBD addictive?
NO! CBD is non- habit forming, in part because it mimics chemicals our body naturally creates.
Will I fail a drug test if I use CBD?
It depends on what product you use, and how often. Isolate and Broad Spectrum products (such as our gummies) will not produce a positive drug test, as the amount of THC is extremely low. Full-spectrum products however can produce a positive test with long-term regular use. Their THC amount is very low, but can build up in the body over time.
What’s the difference between CBD and Marijuana?
Commercial CBD (such as ours) is derived from hemp, a federally legal plant, which is a cousin to Marijuana. Legal CBD must contain less than 0.3% THC. This means that our CBD products are not psychoactive and will not get you “high”.
Will CBD get you high?
Dr. Damas CBD cannot get you high.
Can I travel with CBD?
Travel with HEMP CBD is legal in the United States. International travel is more complicated, and you should always do your research before traveling with hemp outside of the USA.
Is CBD legal?
Yes! In the United States, CBD derived from hemp is federally legal.
Is CBD safe for pets?
Our Salmon Oil pet CBD is easy to dose. Refer to our pet CBD label for dosing guidelines, or talk to your veterinarian!

Can Seniors take CBD?
CBD is great for seniors! If you're on medication, consult with your doctor about how it may interact.
Will CBD use affect my job?
This depends on state law and your employer's rules. Start by consulting with your company's HR department. If you are concerned about CBD producing a positive drug test, use BROAD SPECTRUM and ISOLATE products which will not produce a positive drug test.
