WHAT IS THC-FREE BROAD SPECTRUM CBD DISTILLATE?
THC-Free Broad Spectrum CBD Distillate is an oil extract from the Cannabis sativa plant that contains cannabinoids and other compounds present in the hemp plant, except the compound THC which was removed during the manufacturing process.
A filtration process takes place that removes all detectable THC from the extracted CBD oil. Furthermore, manufacturers use a modern chromatography method to separate THC molecules from the hemp plant. THC has been removed from the product to the point where it cannot be detected by advanced instrumentation methods of analysis. Though some of hemp’s other compounds are lost in the filtration process, the remaining oil is still a powerful CBD oil rich in cannabinoids and other compounds.
To put it simply, the term “Broad-Spectrum” means that extra steps were taken during the remediation process to eliminate specific cannabinoids from the product.
WHY DO SOME USERS PREFER THE BROAD SPECTRUM THC-FREE CBD DISTILLATE?
Broad Spectrum CBD distillate is favorable for both old and new CBD users seeking to experience the entourage effect of cannabinoids contained within the hemp plant. It is for those who are sensitive to specific cannabinoids and have minimal experience with hemp extract.
When CBD is extracted from the hemp plant’s buds, leaves, and stalks, the resulting unfiltered CBD oil is known as full spectrum CBD. Full spectrum oil contains all of the cannabinoids found in hemp, including CBD, CBG, CBN, CBC, and trace amounts of THC, as well as terpenes, flavonoids, and fatty acids.
Although hemp must contain less than 0.3% THC as required by law (which is not enough to get you high), many people still prefer to have these trace amounts of tetrahydrocannabinol completely removed for these reasons:
- Entourage effect
- An enhanced CBD experience is brought by the wide array of terpenes, and flavonoids in the hemp plant.
- Reduces the risk of a false-positive result on a drug test.
- Some people simply do not want THC in their bodies.
