How Does CBD Work?

CBD works on CB1 and CB2 receptors in our bodies. We all have an endocannabinoid system (ECS). CBD, CBN, and THC all fit like a lock and key into our receptors.

These are the same receptors that when you go for a run and you get a runners high.

These receptors are part of our ECS which impact physiological processes affecting pain modulation, memory, and appetite, plus anti-inflammatory effects and other immune system responses. CB1 has a lot to do with pain whereas CB2 has more to do with anxiety.

What is the Difference Between Full Spectrum, Broad Spectrum, and Isolate?

The spectrum refers to the different compounds that fall in the natural extract of the cannabis plant. It's not just CBD oil in the oil, there are different fats, terpenes, other cannabinoids, and polyphenols. So a full spectrum product will be a full spectrum of the naturally occurring compounds in its entirety.

On the totally other side of the spectrum would be the isolate. Which is the CBD that's been striped away and isolated from all the other naturally occurring compounds.

Then in the middle of the spectrum would be the whole range of the broad spectrum. Which doesn't include the full set of compounds but it has a lot of them. It can have many of the terpenes, flavonoids, and other cannabinoids.

We prefer to have the full spectrum so you can have the entourage effect which basically is making the CBD amplified by complimenting it with all the other compounds.

Will I Fail a Drug Test?

You can test positive for THC with full spectrum, so if that is a concern we encourage you to use our THC-free, broad spectrum oil.
