What’s the Difference?
Full Spectrum CBD: The Whole Plant Experience
Full Spectrum CBD contains all the natural compounds found in the hemp plant, including cannabinoids (like CBD and THC), terpenes, and flavonoids. The key here is that it includes a small amount of THC—not enough to get you high, but just enough to contribute to what’s known as the entourage effect. This means that all these compounds work together to enhance the overall benefits of CBD.
✔ Best for: Those looking for maximum benefits and don’t mind a trace of THC.
🚨 Considerations: While legal in most states (as long as it contains less than 0.3% THC), Full Spectrum CBD could show up on a drug test.
Broad Spectrum CBD: All the Benefits, No THC
Broad Spectrum CBD is similar to Full Spectrum, but without THC. It still contains other beneficial cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids, so you can still experience some of the entourage effect—just without THC in the mix.
✔ Best for: Those who want to avoid THC, while still benefiting from multiple hemp compounds.
🚨 Considerations: While it’s THC-free, Broad Spectrum CBD may not be quite as potent as Full Spectrum due to the lack of THC.
