What is Full Spectrum CBD oil?
Full Spectrum CBD oil is a product derived from the hemp plant that contains a wide variety of cannabinoids and other natural compounds found in the cannabis plant, including CBD (cannabidiol), THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), CBG (cannabigerol), CBN (cannabinol), terpenes, flavonoids and other phytonutrients.
Unlike isolated CBD oil, which contains only CBD, Full Spectrum CBD oil offers a complete consumption experience that harnesses the benefits of multiple cannabinoids and other natural compounds that work together to enhance the effects of CBD. This is known as the “entourage effect” or “entourage effect“.
THC percentage in Full Spectrum CBD oil
Full Spectrum CBD oil may have a small amount of THC (less than 0.3% in the US and less than 1% in Europe) which is insufficient to produce psychoactive effects but can help increase the effectiveness of CBD and other cannabinoids in the body.
