CBD (cannabidiol), a key cannabinoid from hemp, promotes relaxation and calm in oils, edibles, and more. Unlike THC, the psychoactive compound in marijuana, CBD doesn't cause a high.
With CBD's rising popularity—especially our premium selection at Green Owl—navigating the options can be overwhelming. Here's a clear breakdown of the three main types: full spectrum, broad spectrum, and isolates.
Full spectrum CBD comes from the entire hemp plant, including roots, stems, flowers, and leaves. Extraction methods like pressing, pulverizing, or washing yield an oil rich in cannabinoids (CBD, CBG, CBN, trace THC at 0.3% or less) plus phytochemicals like chlorophyll.
The result is a robust, earthy hemp-flavored oil with a darker hue, capturing the plant's full entourage effect for enhanced benefits.
Broad spectrum starts like full spectrum but removes all THC post-extraction. It retains a diverse cannabinoid profile—CBD, CBG, CBN, CBDV, and others—without any psychoactive traces.
Ideal for those avoiding THC due to health or sensitivity, it delivers CBD's advantages safely.

Perfect for targeted wellness without psychotropic concerns.
Isolates are pure CBD (99%+) extracted via supercritical CO2, stripping away oils, chlorophyll, and other compounds. Now available for CBG and CBN too, offering precise, versatile dosing.
Research into hundreds of cannabinoids reveals their unique body interactions and benefits. CBD is powerful, but others like CBG and CBN show equal promise for health and wellness.
