The active substance CBD is the second most common active ingredient in the cannabis plant and is considered non-psychoactive. In recent years, CBD has played an increasingly important role in medicine, especially due to its enormous potential. The doctors suspect that cannabidiol (CBD) has positive properties for healing and alleviating diseases and z. B. can help with schizophrenia, inflammation, depression and headaches (cf. CBD Ratgeber, 2017). However, these assumptions are not scientifically proven and according to the Swiss Therapeutic Products Ordinance, we are prohibited from passing on any promises of healing to our customers. CBD is not a cure/medicine and we do not advertise it as such to our customers. We would like to point out that we do not provide medical advice or make diagnoses. For more information, the Federal Office of Public Health has a Leaflet published.

The cannabis plant has a total of around 80 active ingredients, so-called cannabinoids. The two most famous cannabinoids in the cannabis plant are THC (Delta9-Tetrahydrocannabinol)and  CBD (cannabidiol).

Compared to the active ingredient THC, the consumption of CBD does not induce a high and therefore does not make you high. In addition, THC is illegal in Switzerland (see CBD Ratgeber, 2017)!

CBD products with a THC content of less than 1% are not subject to the Narcotics Act in Switzerland. The products placed on the market as tobacco substitutes must therefore meet the legal requirements of the products they are replacing.

You can find more helpful information on the Website of the Federal Office of Public Health.

Every product must be reported to the Federal Office of Public Health before being sold. In particular, the report contains a laboratory analysis which confirms the non-psychotropic effect and the absence of nicotine. The packaging must also meet certain requirements. The same warning images must be printed on every retail pack as on cigarette packs. So that the consumer of the tobacco substitute products can clearly perceive the warning notices, they must be at least 35% of the front and 50% of the back of the packaging area. In addition, the notes “<1% THC” and “products based on plants, without tobacco” must be present on the packaging (cf. Federal Office of Public Health BAG, 2017).

Hanfpost.ch products are sold as tobacco substitutes. For this reason, you can consume the products wherever smoking is allowed. A little tip: tell people around you to light your CBD joint. In this way you avoid astonished looks and find out in good time whether someone is bothered by the smell of your legal joint. Around such situations To prevent this, we recommend that you enjoy your CBD products at home where you do not disturb anyone.

In Switzerland, products with a THC content of up to a maximum of 1% are legal. Each country has its own laws regarding the permitted THC content. In the surrounding countries of the EU area, hemp products with a THC value of 0.2 - 0.3% THC (see Hemp Info, 2017) are permitted. Most of the products sold on Hanfpost.ch correspond to the legal maximum THC levels in Switzerland, which have also been proven by laboratory analyzes of each individual variety.

However, since our products usually have a higher THC content than 0.2 - 0.3%, the products are illegal abroad! We therefore strictly advise our customers not to consume the products abroad.

According to the Institute for Forensic Medicine IRM Zurich, due to a lack of studies, it cannot be ruled out that CBD has a negative effect on driving behavior. However, it is possible to differentiate between legal and illegal consumption of cannabis products in a blood analysis (this depends on your frequency of consumption!) When consuming CBD products, it can therefore be assumed that no relevant THC values ​​for a driver's inability to drive are determined can (cf. 20min.ch, 2017). Still, we guess like that bunch ofTo give our customers no need to drive a vehicle after consuming CBD.

Legal cannabis is booming in Switzerland and dealers are literally overrun with inquiries and orders. The regional police corps are also not yet prepared for the onslaught. Until recently, there was no rapid test that could be used to determine the CBD content on site. A rapid test is now increasingly being used by the police. Should your cannabis be confiscated, we recommend that you insist on a laboratory analysis. At the latest when the test results are known, you will immediately receive your CBD back.

-Keep the receipt of your purchase (if necessary, take a photo or make sure that you can access the order confirmation at any time
