“This is not something that will get you high”- CBD Bee

Do you know that there is an ingredient in cannabis that is used for medical purposes? Well, many of us would be aware and most of us are still skeptical to follow a medication remotely linked to cannabis. This article is about one of the prevalent active ingredients in cannabis Cannabidiol (CBD). Well, this is not a medical article, this is an interview with Sajal Dubey, Founder of CBD Bee to address your basic queries and general hesitation. In this, Sajal addresses how he started his journey with CBD Bee with a personal journey and how he is trying to fill the void by providing authentic sources of information. 

What is Cannabidiol (CBD)?

Cannabidiol (CBD) is a chemical in the Cannabis sativa plant, also known as cannabis or hemp.

Over 80 chemicals, known as cannabinoids, have been found in the Cannabis sativa plant. Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the most famous ingredient in cannabis. But CBD is obtained from hemp, a form of the Cannabis sativa plant that only contains small amounts of THC. CBD seems to have effects on some chemicals in the brain, but these are different from the effects of THC.

According to a report from the World Health Organization, “In humans, CBD exhibits no effects indicative of any abuse or dependence potential…. To date, there is no evidence of public health-related problems associated with the use of pure CBD.”

Excerpts from the telephonic interview with Sajal: 

How did your entrepreneurial journey with CBD Bee embark?

I started in 2020, but it was not the official date of its being. The idea was I had no idea about it back then. I would say it all started with a personal experience. My best friend started having serious epileptic attacks and we were really concerned about him. Initially, he was prescribed allopathic medicines along with numerous restrictions. He was not allowed to go to the gym, not any kind of adventurous sports. He had to completely discontinue all the things he once loved, to be honest, it was really disheartening to see him like that. Hence, we began looking for natural ways to help him cope up with all those seizures and attacks. That is when we came across the concept of CBD or cannabidiol.

There are so many effects like when you are having seizures you are shaking or when you are about to have a seizure you blackout and that is what used to happen to my best friend as well. So, when he switched to CBD, he experienced relief. 

In 2020, I was in a typical 9-5 job setup for six months. A proper IT job with a very hectic schedule and I was also looking to explore the different areas and try new things. I was looking for various options for work in investment etc and that was my approach to look for another job. That is how I came to know about CBD. In India, cannabis is so stigmatized. However, people are actually doing business helping people heal or cope with serious illnesses. So I came across a company ITSHEMP. In September 2020, I contacted the founder of the company. I got in touch with him. I told him about my journey, I read a lot, I did a lot of research on it, and interacted with a lot of people to understand in detail. 

What is CBD Bee?

So, CBD Bee is a retail platform for providing CBD products, we do not manufacture all the products. We just connect the manufacturers to the customers under an Ayurvedic Cannabis Licence from the government. Our role is to provide the correct product, the right information and provide a hassle-free service to the customers.

Product Range-

There is a wide range of products.  There are balms, skin oils, gummies, tea, and coffees. We have capsules for anxiety, stress, and chronic pains. 

There are different oils with different strengths depending upon the needs of the customer. We have a tie-up with ayurvedic cannabis doctors called cannabisdoctors.in from where you can take the prescription. There are also ayurvedic oils available that also require a prescription from doctors.

How do you fill the void of information where people feel it can get you addicted?

The first point I would tell people is that CBD is used to overcome addiction. People try to get rid of addiction by using CBD.

How do you address that?

The first point I would tell people is that CBD is used to overcome addictions of almost every kind. We have a whole blog called “Cannabis Network”  to address the issues and resolve peoples’ queries. It is available on our website. I would say it is an ongoing process, we are writing blogs, communicating through our Instagram page.  We also participate in local events to disseminate correct information. Our attempt is to reach out to people both online and offline. We are telling people that is not something that can get you high, but something that can actually help you. 

Further, we are trying to include a lot of cannabis influencers in our network and connect them to the ayurvedic doctors so that they can address their queries of the general audience. 

People today lack an authentic source of information. We are trying to bridge that gap and asking people to look for this option as well if it helps you relieve the pain.
