If you have begun looking into CBD and the ways in which it can benefit you, then you feel slightly overwhelmed by the range of products available. Many people opt for full-spectrum CBD tinctures or oils; however, some people may prefer a CBD isolate tincture.
In broad terms, there are three types of CBD. There is full-spectrum, which contains all of the cannabinoids that are naturally found in the cannabis plant, including THC (the one that makes you ‘high’). There is broad-spectrum, which contains many of the cannabinoids found in the plant, but without THC. The final one is isolate, which is only CBD with no other cannabinoids.
The advantage of CBD isolate tinctures is that they are the purest form of CBD that you can take. Isolates are high effective and fast acting, and they are also colorless, odorless and tasteless. There are many benefits to isolates and here you will find some recommendations for the best of them. However, first it is worth discussing isolates in a bit more detail.
Most people prefer to take full-spectrum tinctures. These normally contain less than 0.03% THC, making them legal in the vast majority of places. A full-spectrum product will also contain many other beneficial compounds from the hemp plant. There is also a theory that the combination of CBD with THC works better than CBD on its own.
However, many people will have reasons for wanting to avoid THC altogether and while the amount of THC in these products is tiny, it has occasionally caused a positive result on drugs tests. This can be down to an individual’s metabolism or the amount taken. Regardless of this, if it is vital that you never test positive then using a CBD isolate is a far better choice.
Isolates contain no other terpenes, flavonoids, or other compounds from the hemp plant and they are generally between 98% and 99.9% pure. They also have many potential medicinal uses, and this is why they have become extremely popular.
Another major advantage to isolates is that it is much easier to work out an exact dosage of CBD. Isolates are also more suitable for adding to food and drink. Even those who use full-spectrum oils may wish to have some isolate to hand, as it is a good way to administer a pure CBD boost when necessary.
Some people will argue that isolates will never be as effective as full-spectrum CBD. However, at present, there is no definitive answer and research is still being carried out. Many people use isolates and find the effects to be wholly satisfactory.
