THE MOST COMMON QUESTIONS
CBD is classified into three categories: Full Spectrum, Broad Spectrum, and Isolate. The difference between them depends on the extraction and refinement processes. Isolate CBD is the purest form of the three: all other compounds such as terpenes and flavonoids are completely removed. Full Spectrum CBD contains all of the compounds found in the hemp plant, including a very small percentage of THC (less than 0.3%). Broad Spectrum CBD is similar to Full Spectrum: all the naturally occurring cannabinoids remain but THC is completely removed.
No, CBD and marijuana are not the same. Marijuana is a plant. CBD is one of over 40 chemical compounds found in both hemp and marijuana plants. We extract our CBD solely from hemp grown on farms in Oregon and Kentucky. Studies and lab evidence suggest that CBD may have a wide range of potential therapeutic benefits. It has no intoxicating or psychoactive effects like THC, the chemical compound found in marijuana plants.
CBD is legal but there are some nuances and caveats to consider.
According to ProjectCBD.org, “Federal law prohibits U.S. farmers from cultivating hemp as a commercial crop, but the sale of imported, low-THC, industrial hemp products is permitted in the United States.”
Technically, this means that as long as the CBD product (oil, vape, topical, etc) is produced from the seeds and stalk of the industrial hemp plant (with less than 0.3% THC), it is permissible to buy, sell, and ship across state lines. CBD from cannabis, however, is not legal to cross state lines.
