CBD, short for cannabidiol, is the primary cannabinoid found in CBD Oil MD products. It is one of over 140 naturally-occurring cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant, and is among the most thoroughly researched alongside THC. Cannabinoids are chemical compounds that occur naturally in the human body, and actively interact with cannabinoid receptors located throughout the human body. When CBD binds to these receptors, it triggers various cognitive and physiological actions that help to regulate your appetite, pain sensation, mood, and memory.

While CBD is a naturally-occurring component of marijuana, it does not cause a “high” like some may think. The CBD we offer is derived directly from the hemp plant, which is a cousin of the marijuana plant. Industrial hemp is defined by US law as cannabis having 0.3% or less delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) content by dry weight.

If an extract is full-spectrum, this means it contains all phytochemicals naturally found in the plant, including CBD, trace cannabinoids, terpenes, and essential oils. Full-spectrum extracts from hemp also come with a negligible THC content — below 0.3%

Although non-psychoactive, full-spectrum CBD can give you a false positive during a drug test, especially if you consume high doses of CBD oil daily. That’s when the broad-spectrum CBD comes in.

Like full-spectrum CBD, broad-spectrum CBD contains cannabidiol and all the other compounds within the plant. However, it goes through an additional process to remove the trace amounts of THC, completely removing it after the initial extraction.

The entourage effect is used to describe what happens when multiple compounds from the industrial hemp plant work together. These components work together to enhance the potential benefits of the plant, with each compound amplifying the therapeutic properties of the others while mitigating their potential side effects. Though the impact of this effect has not yet been validated through clinical studies, this synergistic interaction is believed to increase the potential for therapeutic effect.

Everyone is unique and the fact remains that everyone is in a different place and will react differently to their CBD dosage. As dosage of CBD differs for each person, it is best to start small and gradually increase at a comfortable level until you experience the desired result.

Although it is rare and highly unlikely for you to fail a drug test using CBD Oil MD products, various drug testing labs tend to have different testing protocols, so if this is of major concern, we recommend that you visit www.cbdoilmd.com, download the Certificate of Analysis (COA) for the appropriate CDB Oil MD product, then share it with the lab that administers your drug test to get an answer you can trust.

Before you start taking a hemp-based product like CBD Oil MD, you should consult with your physician. Inform your doctor of other medications that you are taking before you take CBD Oil MD products. Do not take CBD Oil MD products if you are allergic to any of its ingredients, including cannabidiol. If you have any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, stop taking CBD Oil MD and call your doctor right away.
