The world of cannabis science continues to evolve rapidly. While CBD oil was once primarily known for its relaxing and anti-inflammatory properties, it now appears that the plant has a much deeper impact on fundamental processes in our bodies.
In his latest research paper “Ferroptosis and Cannabinoids: Mechanisms, Synergy and Applications,” Peter Vermeul , founder of CBD Spain and creator of the CBD oil we work with at CBD & Herb , shares groundbreaking insights into how cannabis works at the cellular level.

The result? A fascinating story about ferroptosis , cannabinoids , and the power of the entourage effect —a new perspective on how nature and science reinforce each other.

Cannabis often has a loaded image in the West, but in the Indian Ayurvedic tradition, this plant—known as Vijaya —has been recognized for thousands of years as a sacred herb and powerful medicine. In the Atharvaveda (c. 1500–1000 BCE), cannabis is even listed as one of the five sacred plants that bring joy and dispel fear.

Pancreatic cancer – better known as pancreatic cancer – is one of the most feared forms of cancer. The problem? The disease is often diagnosed late, spreads rapidly, and responds poorly to standard treatments like chemotherapy or radiation. As a result, the prognosis for patients remains unfortunately limited.

Yet, hope is emerging from an unexpected source: the cannabis plant . Besides the well-known substances CBD and THC , cannabis contains a wealth of lesser-known compounds that are attracting increasing attention from the medical community. One of the most intriguing of these is cannflavins – flavonoids found only in cannabis.

Sometimes you stumble upon an extract that's more than just a product—it feels like the pure soul of the plant. CBD Spain's Cherry 15% Full Spectrum oil is just that: a whole plant extract that preserves all its active ingredients in their natural balance. Not through artificial additives, but through an extraction method that respects what the plant naturally has to offer.

When you think of the cannabis plant, CBD and THC often come to mind first. Yet, there's much more to this versatile plant. One of the most intriguing discoveries of recent years is cannflavins —a rare group of flavonoids found exclusively in cannabis and arousing the curiosity of scientists worldwide.

At CBD & Herb , we're committed to making the most up-to-date and reliable knowledge about medicinal cannabis accessible. This is especially true when it comes to research that seamlessly aligns with the vision of Peter Vermeul , founder of CBD Spain and a pioneer in full-spectrum CBD oil.

A groundbreaking study was recently published in the Journal of Pediatrics and Child Health : the first clinical trial of a whole-spectrum cannabis extract (NTI164) in children with Rett syndrome . This is an important step, not only for patients and their families, but also for the broader recognition of full-spectrum cannabis as a serious medical tool.

Wound healing is a process our bodies naturally perform, but it doesn't always happen automatically. Recovery can be particularly difficult with chronic wounds , burns, or complex injuries. Traditional treatments aren't always effective, often have side effects, or are insufficient.

But what if nature offers us a powerful tool? A growing body of research—and practical experience—shows that cannabinoids from cannabis extracts could play a promising role in accelerating and improving the wound healing process.

When we talk about cannabis, the focus almost always goes to the flower . After all, that's where the well-known cannabinoids like CBD and THC are concentrated. But what if the true power of the plant was right there in front of us all along – in the leaves ?

According to research by Peter Vermeul , founder of CBD Spain and pioneer in the development of Full-Spectrum CBD oil, cannabis leaves contain an impressive arsenal of compounds that we've ignored for far too long. One group stands out in particular: stilbenes .

Why two unknown cannabinoids could change the future of natural hair restoration

Hair loss. For some, it's a matter of age, for others, genetics. But for almost everyone, it's something you'd rather not have to deal with.
Fortunately, research is being conducted worldwide into new solutions—and sometimes they come from unexpected places. Very unexpected.

Peter Vermeul , founder of CBD Spain and expert in whole plant extracts, discovered that two lesser-known cannabinoids – CBDV (cannabidivarin) and CBDVa (cannabidivaric acid) – could be the forgotten stars of hair restoration.

We all know the power of cannabinoids like CBDa and THCa . But did you know there's another natural compound in cannabis that's just as special? Meet β-sitosterol – a plant sterol with surprisingly powerful health benefits.

At CBD & Herb, we work with pure, full-spectrum extracts from CBD Spain , developed by Peter Vermeul , a pioneer in cannabis science and founder of CBD Spain. His research consistently reveals new layers of the cannabis plant's complexity. And this time, it's β-sitosterol that's in the spotlight.
