CBD, short for cannabidiol, is a chemical compound from the cannabis plant. It’s a naturally occurring substance that’s used in products like oils and edibles to impart a feeling of relaxation and calm. Unlike its cousin tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), it’s not psychoactive.

No! As long as the product or flower has below 0.3% THC then it is legal to consume and sell.

Full spectrum refers to products containing everything in the cannabis plant. This means full spectrum products contain CBD as well as all other natural terpenes that come from the cannabis plant including trace amounts of THC, whereas Broad Spectrum products contain no THC. They have all the same terpenes as full spec except THC. Last but not least CBD Isolate is pure CBD. Everything contained in the cannabis plant is removed leaving 99+% CBD left over.

While there’s no definitive scientific data on using CBD to treat pets, there’s anecdotal evidence from pet owners suggesting it can treat pain, especially neuropathic pain, as well as helping to control seizures.

Most CBD products are taken orally via oil drops that are placed under the tongue and held for 60 seconds before swallowing. Topical creams and ointments are also effective, as is smoking or vaporizing CBD-rich marijuana strains like ACDC or Charlotte’s Web.

The only significant danger/side effect of the drug is in vaping CBD oils that were produced using a thinning agent, such as propylene glycol. When burned/vaped, propylene glycol produces formaldehyde, which is a known carcinogen. CBD oils produced by CO2 extraction are much safer and purer than oils that were produced with liquid alcohol/thinning agents. Other than that, most research has concluded that CBD is perfectly safe with no known side effects, though some users have reported drowsiness, lightheadedness, low blood pressure, and dry mouth.
