For valid reasons, cannabidiol dominates the conversation about the medical use of cannabis. All of the 60-plus cannabinoids unique to the plant genus cannabis interact with our bodies thanks to a network of neurons called the endocannabinoid system.

The endocannabinoid system runs throughout your body and it is full of receptors that bind to the cannabinoids you introduce to your bloodstream when you consume Cannabis. It’s the chemical interactions of those bonds that create a wide and largely unknown series of responses in your body.

And even though cannabidiol has no toxicity for humans, meaning it doesn’t make you intoxicated (i.e. high) it is highly reactive with the endocannabinoid system. To put things simply, Cannabis makes things happen in your body. When it binds to the endocannabinoid system’s receptors, it stimulates all kinds of changes. Most of those changes are incredibly beneficial, and researchers keep discovering real and potential medical uses for them.

No. One of the most crucially important qualities of Cannabis is its lack of psycho-activity. This basically means that cannabidiol won’t get you high.

Unlike THC, the cannabinoid with the power of producing euphoric sensations, Cannabidiol is dormant. So when taken on its own, users experience none of the sensations of being ‘stoned’. And this is the single most important property of the cannabinoid from the medical and legal perspective.

Full spectrum Cannabis contains all the cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant including trace amounts of THC. Broad spectrum Cannabis also contains all the cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant however the only difference is it has had the THC completely removed.

Cannabis and hemp are well recognised as being safe and will not produce side effects in most people, however if you are on prescribed medicine you should always check with your doctor before adding anything to your daily routine.

In scientific terms, an isolate is the purest form of a compound, which is produced by singularly extracting that compound from its environment and isolating it from all other compounds.

With that being said, Cannabis isolate is the purest form of Cannabis, which is produced by removing all other compounds found in the plant including terpenes, flavonoids, plant parts, and other cannabinoids.

Cannabis Isolate is typically extracted from Hemp, due to its low to non-existent THC-content.
