Exploring the Benefits and Potential of Whole Plant Extracts
In the world of CBD products, you may come across the term “full spectrum CBD oil.” But what does it mean, and how does it differ from other CBD extracts? In this blog post, we will delve into the topic of full spectrum CBD oil, its composition, potential benefits, and why it has gained popularity among CBD enthusiasts. Discover the power of whole plant extracts and how they may enhance your CBD experience.
CBD isolate is 99.9% pure CBD oil
During the CBD isolate extraction process, everything contained in the plant matter is removed, including any traces of THC, terpenes, waxes, oils, chlorophyll and more. What you’re left with is pure CBD…and nothing else.
Full Spectrum CBD oil
Full Spectrum CBD Oil on the other hand, contains everything the plant contains. Full-spectrum CBD is full of all the terpenes, cannabinoids, flavonoids. These are the words, Full Spectrum and Organic that I recommend you are looking for on your products. My favourites that we as a family use daily is The Real CBD.
However my husband loves the Melatonin ( sleep regulating hormone) added one, so we tend to buy this combo package.
Broad-spectrum CBD oil
This is a little bit of both. Broad-spectrum CBD is full-spectrum CBD without any THC.
PCR stands for phytocannabinoid rich
In this case, typically, using alcohol distillation, the most dominant phytocannabinoids (THC and CBD) and terpenes are separated. This process allows to produce extractions that are 0.0% THC and to preserve a partial set of terpenes from the original plant.
Cannabinoids
A Term used to refer to molecules that are found in the hemp plant and/or that interact with cannabinoid receptors.They can be classified
as phytocannabinoids, endocannabinoids, or synthetic cannabinoids.
Endocannabinoids
Chemicals produced by the body, that target cannabinoid receptors we all have in our bodies.
Synthetic cannabinoids
Cannabinoids produced in the laboratory to structurally or functionally mimic the
endocannabinoids or phytocannabinoids.
Phytocannabinoids
Over 113 naturally occurring chemicals/compounds found in the hemp plant.
CBD-Rich (sometimes referred to as “Enriched”) Extracts
Preparations from hemp plants that are higher in CBD than
plants bred historically for recreation.
Whole plant Medicine

The Entourage Effect
The entourage effect suggests that the combination of cannabinoids, terpenes, and other compounds found in full spectrum CBD oil may have enhanced therapeutic potential compared to isolated CBD. When these compounds work together, they can interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system more effectively, potentially promoting a broader range of benefits.
Benefits of Full Spectrum CBD Oil
- Enhanced Effectiveness: The presence of multiple compounds in full spectrum CBD oil may lead to enhanced effectiveness compared to isolated CBD. This means that users may experience stronger and more comprehensive effects when utilizing full spectrum extracts.
- Maximized Potential: The entourage effect is believed to maximize the potential benefits of CBD. The various cannabinoids, such as CBD, THC (within legal limits), and others, along with terpenes and flavonoids, may work synergistically to provide a more holistic wellness experience.
- Additional Therapeutic Properties: Full spectrum CBD oil contains various cannabinoids, some of which have shown potential therapeutic properties of their own, such as CBG (cannabigerol) and CBC (cannabichromene). These compounds, in combination with CBD, may contribute to a wider range of potential benefits.
Full spectrum CBD oil offers a holistic approach to CBD consumption, harnessing the potential of multiple compounds working synergistically. By preserving the natural composition of the hemp plant, users may experience enhanced effectiveness and a wider range of potential benefits. Embrace the power of whole plant extracts and discover the entourage effect by incorporating full spectrum CBD oil into your wellness routine.
