CBD hemp oil is made from high-CBD, low-THC hemp, unlike medical marijuana products, which are usually made from plants with high concentrations of psychoactive tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Because hemp contains only trace amounts of THC, these hemp oil products are non-psychoactive. Cannabidiol (CBD) is just one of over 85 cannabinoids presently identified in the cannabis plant and is the second most abundant cannabinoid in marijuana after THC.
AST (SGOT) Test. This blood test measures an enzyme called aspartate aminotransferase (AST). Enzymes are chemicals that help the cells of your body work. AST is found in red blood cells, liver cells, and muscle cells, including the heart. It is released into the blood when these cells are damaged.
AST SGOT â High, Normal, Low (Interpretation) AST is one of the two liver enzymes. it stands for aspartate amino transferase. This enzyme is also known as SGOT, which stands for serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase. AST is a protein that is synthesized in the liver cells. When there is liver complication or damage, this enzyme leaks out and enters the blood stream, something that leads to increased level of this type of protein in blood. AST is also found in other parts of the body apart from liver.
