The popularity of CBD Oil has increased significantly over the past few years as more people have become aware of its naturally-soothing qualities. Being used in everything from Consumable Oils and Chocolate to relaxing Balms and Body Oils, CBD Oil can help gently soothe pain, stress, anxiety, and insomnia. Perhaps lesser-known, however, is that there are a number of different types of CBD Oil, with Narrow-Spectrum CBD and Full-Spectrum CBD being two of the most popular. In this post, we look at the differences between them and what benefits they offer. Isolate /Narrow-Spectrum vs. Full Spectrum Although both are extracts of the hemp plant, CBD Isolate / Narrow-Spectrum and Full-Spectrum CBD contain different compounds. Full-Spectrum CBD Oil contains all naturally-occurring compounds of the hemp plant, including cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids. Whilst Full-Spectrum contains varying levels of CBD, it also contains traces of THC – the psychoactive component often associated with marijuana. The inclusion of THC in Full-Spectrum CBD Oil means that it’s not suitable for those who have to undergo regular drug tests. CBD Isolate/Narrow-Spectrum, on the other hand, contains negligible levels of THC and high levels of pure, refined CBD. This means that it’s entirely legal to use and can be easily integrated into a daily wellness routine. CBD Isolate / Narrow-Spectrum can be taken as a sublingual tincture at regular points throughout the day, or rubbed into aching muscles after exercise. Either way, it has been shown to help provide a sense of relaxation and clarity in times of uncertainty and high-stress. CBD Isolate Benefits – Flavour over Full-Spectrum One of the main benefits of CBD Isolate Narrow-Spectrum over Full-Spectrum is that it has a more delicate flavour. This is because flavonoids and terpenes contained in the latter can often create an unpleasant bitter taste. Without these compounds, CBD Isolate / Narrow-Spectrum can be combined easily with choice botanicals to create a much more delicious blend. And this is precisely what we’ve done here at Grass and Co.
