Kaneh Bosm is a 100% THC FREE organic hemp range made by the people, for the people. Kaneh Bosm responsibly takes the all-natural organic cannabis plant, extracts the "harmonising” molecule and blends with a range of high-quality organic terpenes.

The popularity of Kaneh Bosm has seen immense growth amongst those that seek alternative therapeutic remedies for their everyday health needs as more become aware of the endocrine system. Everyday Australians are looking for new ways to incorporate Kaneh Bosm into their wellness and health regimes, popular for its adaptability, purity, versatility, benefits, affordability, accessibility and safety in being THC free.

​Australia is very clear on 0% THC. Unlike other countries around the world where THC free means below .03 (USA/Europe) or .02 (UK/Canada).

THC is the most active component in hemp and cannabis and is known as the psycho active compound. While we believe THC may be beneficial for some in raising their consciousness, our focus is to eliminate the fear and change the narrative some Australians have around hemp and cannabis. Therefore, Kaneh Bosm products are 100% THC-Free. 

CBD comes in many varieties, each with unique characteristics from its chemical genus and manufacturing process. These differences make each type appropriate for different users with different needs. Kaneh Bosm is suitable for everyone. The 2 most popular types of CBD are: Full Spectrum, Broad Spectrum.

Full Spectrum CBD: Is derived from a whole plant extraction of the hemp plant. This meaning Full Spectrum CBD products contain all of the cannabinoids, terpenes, amino acids and essential fatty acids which are naturally found in the hemp plant. Additionally, Full Spectrum CBD retains the natural occurring 0.3% THC. In Australia those choosing to drive on the roads and in some employment will test for traces of THC not impairment. It is advised not to consume THC if those areas apply to you as THC can show in your system for up to 30 days or longer.

Broad Spectrum CBD: Similar to Full Spectrum, Broad Spectrum CBD comes from a whole plant extraction of the hemp plant. It also contains all of the cannabinoids, terpenes, amino acids and essential fatty acids which are naturally found in the hemp plant. The difference is the THC has been completely removed in the extraction process. This making it 100% THC free but the same in every other way.

Kaneh Bosm: We responsibly take the hemp plant, compress and distil to a 100% THC free (think of a cold pressing juice). This process is known as isolating, extracting the harmonising molecule. We then extract terpenes in the same process from other plants and spices before adding and blending with the isolate. This is how we re-create a 1600 year old recipe known as the sacred oil.

Terpenes are complex hydrocarbon molecules found in plants, fungi and microbes responsible for the scent and medicinal profile of the plant. They're necessary for a plants defence and biological functions such as producing vitamins, hormones and pheromones.

Working in synergy alongside cannabinoids, terpenes trigger psychological responses that can relieve pain, alleviate suffering, help us sleep, relax our nervous system and allow us an improved quality of life. Terpenes contribute to what scientists refer to as ‘the entourage effect’ when a group of molecules work together for greater health benefits.

Cannabinoids are naturally occurring compounds found in cannabis plants. Classes of cannabinoids include CBD, CBG, CBN, CBC, etc – and most famously THC. Cannabinoids exert their effects by interacting with cannabinoid receptors in our bodies, mainly CB1 and CB2.

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a complex system that is part of the central nervous system (CNS). The endocannabinoid system is known for its role in endocannabinoid signaling, which helps in the functions of the brain, immune tissue, hormones, and other bodily processes. Due to the role it plays in the regulation of the immune and hormone secretion, the ECS is very important.

It is surprising that such an integral part of the body was only discovered in the 1980s. Its discovery is all thanks to the use of cannabis. Until the 80s, no one knew how the ECS works. Not even the most experienced doctors had a clue about how the system affects normal life.

When CBD is used, it promotes the functioning of the endocannabinoid system. It is the functions of this system that is vital. Studies have shown that endocannabinoids promote certain health functions.

The functions of the ECS are as follows:

• Energy Balance: The ECS is a system that works in maintaining homeostasis. The system ensures that the energy being supplied to all parts of the body matches the need. If the body is low in energy, the cannabinoid system will work with the available energy to ensure that critical functions such as breathing and pumping of blood are maintained.
• Appetite Stimulation: The other important function of the ECS besides energy balance is hormonal controls. The system promotes the release and control of different hormones. Among these hormones are ghrelin and leptin. These two hormones are responsible for appetite suppression and stimulation. The system ensures that the hormones are balanced.
• Blood Pressure: Many people take CBD in the management of diabetes and high blood pressure. This is because ECS has an influence on hormone balancing that may affect your blood pressure. Angiotensin and aldosterones affect the size of arteries and may lead to high or low blood pressure. It is the exogenous cannabinoids that control these hormones.
• Pain: The other important function of the ECS is controlling the pain signals. The endocrine systems promote communication between the brain and the body. It removes a blood-brain barrier that may affect the perception of pain. Due to the interaction between the ECS and the brain, it is possible to suppress pain by controlling endocannabinoid signaling.
• Embryonic Development: The development of a child in the mother’s womb relies on the ECS. The human growth hormone released in the body is crucial to the development of the child. The right neurotransmitter release is needed to make the hormones work and promote the growth and development of the baby.
• Nausea and Vomiting Control: The ECS has been found to be quite helpful in controlling digestion and food absorption. Due to its functions in controlling absorption and glucose uptake, it is able to control vomiting. Through balanced energy homeostasis, the system can stop attacks on the digestive system and promote overall health.
• Memory and Learning: The two G protein-coupled receptors, CB1 and CB2, are helpful in coordinating brain functions. In particular, CB1 receptors control brain functions and promote the functions of the postsynaptic neuron. This neuron promotes learning and opens up the mind to be receptive to new ideas and skills.
• Immune Response: Most important, is the benefits of ECS in the immune response. A healthy ECS promotes a strong immune. The ECS is part of the peripheral nervous system where the endocannabinoid cells can bind to immune cells. The duty of the peripheral nervous system is to promote cell protection. It works with ECS cannabinoid receptor to promote a strong immune.
• Promotes Mental Health: The ECS coordinates with the pituitary gland, which helps regulate stress. The hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis which is part of the pituitary gland secretes pituitary hormones that are vital in promoting mental health, reducing stress, and controlling depression. Some mental problems are a result of stress-induced activation.
• Promotes Reproductive Functions: The endocannabinoid system also offers plenty of benefits to reproductive health. From boosting sexual arousal hormones to supporting the growth of a baby, it is almost impossible for anyone to have a child with failed endocannabinoid signaling. Since it supports reproductive health, it should not be misused for this purpose.
• Motor Control: Endocannabinoid signaling is very important since it promotes motion. Studies have shown that when 9-tetrahydrocannabinol is used it boosts anterior pituitary sensitivity. Further, for the human body to move energy is needed. The ECS promotes the mitochondrial function of generating energy that is used with the rest of the body.
• Bone Remodeling and Growth: The growth hormone helps promote the growth and remodeling of bones. The ECS promotes the secretion of growth hormones, which are vital for the overall health of the bones. Bones need to rejuvenate in case of a fracture too. It is the signals sent to the brain by neurotransmitters in the ECS system that help fasten the regeneration process.
• Liver Function: Proper liver functioning depends on hormones as is the case with many other parts of the body. Studies have shown that the system is vital in the synthesis of the liver and adipose tissue. This signaling of the adipose tissue is also helpful to the metabolism. A well-functioning cannabinoid receptor is key for overall liver health.
• Metabolism: One of the important mitochondrial functions is supporting metabolism. The endocannabinoid signaling of neurotransmitters supports mitochondria to function to the fullest. Its support for metabolism ensures that sufficient energy is produced and well distributed throughout the body. This balancing of energy is very crucial.
• Muscle Formation: Most important is the role played by the ECS in the replenishment of muscles. Children require high levels of cannabinoids to promote quick growth. Further endocannabinoids are used in novel anti-inflammatory drugs since it helps with the quick healing of inflammatory injuries.

The functions of the ECS are almost endless. This vital system is vital in stress response, promoting immune cells, and endocannabinoid signaling among other benefits. Its ability to balance hormones calls for all people to improve their health. It is important to take foods that inhibit fatty acid amide hydrolase, an enzyme that breaks down endocannabinoids.

This is a complex collection of glands that produce hormones. Such hormones regulate metabolism, growth, development, and tissue function. Without the system, hormones that regulate functions such as sexual arousal, reproduction, sleep, and moods would not be produced.

The harmonising compound is known for its interaction with the endocannabinoid system. It works in sync with your endocannabinoid system to stimulate your body’s CB1 and CB2 receptors. This helps regulate immunity, hormones and stress responses, assisting the body’s creation of its own cannabinoids and in turn helping maintain homeostasis (otherwise known as internal balance).

Its powerful antioxidant effects are useful in treating the symptoms daily stresses. Antioxidants are a strong preventative, that can help stop free radical damage.

We suggest the use of the titration method whereby you start at low doses and pay close attention to how your body responds, altering the dosage as required to find the maximum dosage with the minimum side effects.

Kaneh Bosm uses non-psychoactive cannabinoids so it will not get you high in the way that THC gets you high. But Kaneh Bosm is known to have a feeling of being in balance, that of homeostasis.

Kaneh Bosm is not psychoactive in the way that THC is psychoactive and it will not get you high. Many users of Kaneh Bosm report feeling a very subtle feeling of relaxation, alertness or mental clarity.

There is no such thing as too much Kaneh Bosm. Within reason the more Kaneh Bosm the better. We put a focus on it being affordable, so that Australians do not have financial barriers to acquiring such helpful and healing products. We see and hear daily the positive impacts our product has on Australians, and we hope it too has the same impact on you.

Always exercise caution when consuming products along with other medications. While Kaneh Bosm is considered to be an incredibly safe and therapeutic it is always best to do your own research.

Absolutely, Pets like humans have an Endocannabinoid system and can benefit from Kaneh Bosm. We are not animal experts, but we believe the right amount of Kaneh Bosm for pets also depends on the weight. We suggest the same as humans make use of the titration method.

Kaneh Bosm is safe to use for pets but their dosage will likely be much smaller than yours. Dogs have a higher concentration of cannabinoid receptors in their brain.

We believe the right daily dose for dogs is .25 for up to 10kgs, .25 for 10-30kgs & .50 for 30kgs and over. For Cats we believe the right daily dose for is .25 for up to 5kgs, .25 for 5-7.5kgs & .50 for 7.5kgs and over.

Kaneh Bosm is best kept in a cool dark place away from direct sunlight and the roll on kept upright. Kaneh Bosm clear oil may turn to a slight lavender colour if in direct sunlight but does not compromise the properties.

Absolutely. We believe in holistic health and like those who were before us we believe fasting is vital for optimal health. Kaneh Bosm oil has been blended with MCT oil which is a coconut oil, consisting of medium trans-fat that keeps your body in a ketosis fat burning state. Kaneh Bosm oil makes its way into every cup of black coffee here at HQ as we follow the 7 KB principles.

The 7 Kaneh Bosm principles are easy to follow and work on a cellular level to ensure improved quality of life. They are as follows in no particular order but a must for everyday:

1. Take Kaneh Bosm daily

2. Intermittent Fasting

3. Sleep to your circadian rhythm
