The company maintains that its CBD products contain zero (or, very close to zero -- less than .02 percent) THC. Nukana sources its products from "established, well-respected facilities in Colorado, Kentucky and Oregon," according to the Nukana website.

"Our process that we use uses CO2 to extract CBD from the hemp plant, from industrial hemp," Hall said. "It does not give you that feeling of being high or anything like that. You get the benefits of the CBD, minus the THC."

CBD has become a hot topic within the healthy-living crowd. The compound has been touted as a treatment for depression and anxiety, epilepsy, skin problems, multiple sclerosis, arthritis and sundry other conditions.

Hall stressed that Nukana's products have not been evaluated or approved by the Food and Drug Administration, and thus the company cannot make its own claims about what its products do. The company does, however, promote its products (which are technically considered dietary supplements) with the tag line, "A Nu Way to Alleviate Stress & Anxiety."

"From what we hear from our customers, CBD has huge anti-inflammatory benefits, it has been known to alleviate issues related to pain, we have some migraine sufferers purchase our products," he said. "Obviously, people use it for health supplementation, certain ailments."
