Complete Guide to CBD
It seems like everywhere you turn, someone is talking about it these days. As a CBD brand, we’ve heard all the questions: What is it exactly? What does it stand for? Does it contain THC? So we decided to break down all the need-to-know and also cool-to-know facts about this popular and powerful compound.
- CBD stands for Cannabidiol.
- CBD is a naturally occurring plant compound found in the flower of the cannabis sativa plant.
- It is one of 116+ cannabinoids, the most well-known and studied.
- You will not get high with CBD
- Does not contain enough THC to have an effect (Usually .3% or less!)
- CBD can be taken in a variety of ways
- Tinctures that can be taken orally or added to a beverage/meal/snack
- Gummies or Capsules that are great for on-the-go
- Topically via creams or body oils
- Vaping – this is a controversial option and the jury is still out on whether or not vaping in general is safe. We don’t recommend using CBD this way.
- CBD products can either be “full-spectrum” or “isolate”
- Full-Spectrum: contains other cannabinoids that are not CBD, therefore the product may be less potent.
- Isolate: 100% CBD
What we do know is this stuff is generally safe and well-received by consumers across the country. The interest in buying and using it as a routine supplement continues to grow.
