As you may or may not know, the cannabis plant contains different types of compounds. It has more than 100 cannabinoids, including CBD and THC, which are responsible for its therapeutic and psychoactive effects, respectively.

There are also over 150 terpenes that affect the scent and smell of the plant. Terpenes can also have therapeutic effects when used in certain products. Flavonoids are the least amount of compounds in the cannabis plant. They are found in all kinds of plants but are just about 20 in cannabis. Therefore, flavonoids have a lesser therapeutic and inflammatory effect.

Full spectrum or whole plant CBD contains all of these compounds, including THC, in small proportions. Other types of CBD remove all the THC, while others like CDB isolate removes everything except CBD.

Products made with full spectrum CBD have a more significant effect on pain and inflammation. The THC makes them stronger and more effective in treating related ailments. Due to the presence of THC, these products can have psychoactive effects. However, when taken moderately and in low dosages, the results and negligible.

Because of its strength, full spectrum CBD is more popular and widely available in the market. You can easily find full spectrum cbd oil uk, gummies, oil tinctures, bath bombs, pills, capsules, etc., in almost all online and local stores.

When deciding on the type of CBD products to buy, you have to consider the effect you’re going for and the compounds you want to include in your product. For example, if you would like to avoid THC, avoid products made with full spectrum CBD. These can easily show up on your drug tests and even influence your behavior if consumed carelessly.

Note that the maximum allowed amount of THC in CBD products is 0.3%; anything above is considered illegal and/or controlled. Therefore, you have to be on the lookout when buying full spectrum CBD products.  Check the label to confirm the amount of THC present and determine if it’s something you’re comfortable with or not.

Only consider this form of CBD if you’re only interested in its strong therapeutic effects. But if you’re sensitive to THC or want to avoid the Euphoria part of it, broad spectrum CBD is a good option. If you don’t want anything in your products other than CBD, then the isolated form of CBD is your best bet.

Whether full spectrum, broad spectrum, or CBD isolate, you must consider several things when choosing CBD products to buy. One is the brand; purchase products from a company with proof of third-party testing. Two, consider products made with US-grown hemp. This is grown and processed in strict accordance to set rules and regulations that guarantee quality and safety.

Another consideration is the THC content. As mentioned earlier, the acceptable amount of THC is 0.3%. Higher potency may have harmful side effects.

Other than that, consider products that pass (with proof) all the required tests and standards. Brand reputation is also a subject of concern when choosing CBD products. Reviews and ratings can help you decide the credibility of a CBD vendor.
