At Arbor Vita8, we champion the use of hemp and its cannabinoids. So many report the positive impact it has on their daily lives. Our goal is to continue providing quality hemp products that best suit the needs you may have.

That said, there are still some things to keep in mind when it comes to safety and using hemp. Just because something is natural and can be helpful, doesn’t mean it can’t hurt you either. This is of course in extreme cases, and there are a number of variables and factors to keep in mind. Learn more below.

Supplements Vs. Drugs

Plant medicine is one of the most helpful findings that’s been in use for centuries. The first thing to do is identify exactly what you’re taking. Riley concurs. “Remember that there is a huge difference between a drug and supplement. Just because something comes from nature, does not mean that it’s safe.”

Some drugs found in nature, when used the wrong way, can spell big problems for the user. Supplements, on the other hand, “have hundreds of different compounds in them… They’re used to amplify our general health.” Learn more in the clip above, and be sure to visit Riley’s page to see her educational offerings in full!
