While full spectrum CBD is generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience mild side effects such as drowsiness, gastrointestinal disturbances, or changes in appetite.
It's important to start with a low serving size and gradually increase it to gauge how your body reacts to CBD. If you experience adverse effects, consider consulting with a healthcare professional, especially if you are taking other medications or have underlying health issues.
What distinguishes full spectrum CBD from broad spectrum CBD and CBD isolate?
Full spectrum CBD contains all the cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids found in the hemp plant, including trace amounts of THC. Broad spectrum CBD also includes a wide range of cannabinoids and terpenes but without any traces of THC, making it a good option for those who want to avoid THC altogether.
CBD isolate, on the other hand, is the purest form of CBD, free from other cannabinoids, terpenes, and plant compounds. Full spectrum products are ideal for those seeking the full benefits of the hemp plant's natural therapeutic properties.
Is there any risk of psychoactive effects from the THC in full spectrum CBD products?
Full spectrum CBD products contain only trace amounts of THC (less than 0.3% by dry weight), which is typically not enough to produce the psychoactive effects associated with cannabis use.
This minimal amount of THC contributes to the entourage effect without causing an intoxicating high, making most full spectrum products a safe choice for those looking to avoid the psychoactive effects of THC. Be sure to consider the cannabinoids per serving before consuming. If you are looking to avoid THC, check out our broad spectrum soft gels.
How long does it take to feel the effects of CBD soft gels, and how long do they last?
The onset time for CBD soft gels can vary depending on factors like metabolism, body weight, and overall health. Generally, our Full Spectrum CBD Soft Gels take longer to start working than tinctures or vaporized CBD, usually around 30 minutes to two hours.
However, the effects of soft gels tend to last longer, providing relief for several hours. Consistent daily use can also lead to more sustained benefits, as regular use can help modulate the endocannabinoid system more effectively.
