CBD products have been increasingly growing in popularity because of the wide variety of benefits they offer. However, there is still a lot of confusion surrounding CBD and CBD products.

Words like isolate and distillate on product listings can make you unsure of which you need. It is essential to understand what these words mean and how they affect you.

CBD is short for the word cannabidiol. CBD is one of the many compounds found in the hemp plant. Unlike THC, CBD has no psychoactive effects.

Products containing CBD have taken many forms such as CBD oil and CBD edibles. CBD products have been known to benefit people who deal with anxiety, insomnia, depression, chronic nausea, and more. There are no severe side-effects of CBD, and no fatal CBD overdoses have been reported.

Let’s explore what exactly CBD producers mean when they use words like, isolate, distillate, and full-spectrum.

What is CBD Isolate?

CBD isolate is CBD in it’s purest form. It is basically very much how it sounds—it is isolated cannabidiol.

During the extraction process, everything is removed or filtered out of the hemp plant except for cannabidiol. This leaves you with a pure CBD product.

Currently, all of our gummies are CBD isolates, and we also have CBD isolate oils. We set our standards high producing only quality products. Our CBD isolates are 99.8% pure. CBD isolates contain no additives, no contaminants, just the product you love.

Isolates are completely removed of terpenes, non-CBD cannabinoids like THC, chlorophyll, and organic matter. Because of this, the pure unadulterated CBD should have no taste or smell.

This makes it a wonderfully versatile substance that can be used in edibles or oils without adding flavor but keeping its potency. A CBD isolate is great for someone who struggles with the original earthy flavors of other conventional oils or edibles.

What is CBD Distillate?

CBD distillates are not as pure as a CBD isolate. A CBD distillate contains different cannabinoids, terpenes, and plant materials. However, the CBD distillate could be refined even more to become a CBD isolate.

The terpenes and cannabinoids found in distillates can be healthy and beneficial for the body. But a CBD distillate usually has a much higher THC content which could make it illegal in most states whereas a CBD isolate contains no traceable amounts of THC.

A CBD distillate is commonly sourced from a marijuana plant which is high in THC—the chemical that produces mind-altering effects. However, CBD isolate is sourced from hemp plants that have less THC to start with.

What is Full Spectrum CBD?

Unlike a CBD distillate, full spectrum CBD contains all of the benefits of the whole plant without the high amounts of THC. Full spectrum CBD contains an array of cannabinoids, CBD terpenes, and vitamins that are very beneficial to the body. However, it contains negligible amounts of THC so you will not become high and the product is still legal.

CBD alone is an incredible healing source but, there are other cannabinoids found in the hemp plant that have proven to alleviate symptoms as well.

The CBD terpenes are chemicals that give the hemp plant a unique scent. Even in small amounts CBD terpenes are powerful and can work very well with CBD to heal the body.

While a CBD isolate is the isolated cannabidiol in its purest form, full spectrum CBD contains other beneficial compounds while remaining THC free. Because of the benefits of the whole plant, full spectrum oils and products are typically used to treat illnesses.

Both CBD isolates and full spectrum CBD have their benefits. It simply depends on your preference and what you would like the product to accomplish.

What to Choose?

So, you know what CBD isolate, CBD distillate, and full spectrum CBD mean now. But, How do you choose which one is right for you?

CBD distillates are not commonly produced because of their high amounts of THC, so let’s talk more about isolates and full spectrum.

There is something known as the “entourage effect” that applies to full spectrum CBD. This is the idea that all of the compounds of the whole plant work together as a more healing solution.

Some people struggle with the slight plant-like taste of full spectrum CBD. Many CBD producers are doing their best to help people with this issue by providing flavored full spectrum CBD oils that drown out the earthy taste.

In most cases, people do not mind the natural taste of hemp, and it doesn’t become a deterrent to using a full spectrum CBD oil. If you want to consume all of the possible benefits of CBD without the high, and you don’t mind the taste—full spectrum CBD may be the best option for you.

Although a CBD isolate does not contain the extra compounds found in hemp, it has many benefits by being the purest form of CBD. CBD alone has been known to have many incredible effects on people dealing with different ailments.

It is a great solution for people who desire a great tasting, fun way to take CBD such as a CBD gummie.

Some people do not want to have any THC in what they are consuming whatsoever. Even though full spectrum CBD contains less than 0.3% THC, produces no mind-altering effects, and is legal—the tiny amount of THC could still be there.

A CBD isolate may give you an even smaller chance of having THC in your product. If you prefer a high potency CBD product that is tasty and you don’t want the extras found in full spectrum—a CBD isolate may be the way to go.
