Which form of CBD is right for U?

With CBD’s mountain of health benefits, it’s no wonder why everyone is flocking to this natural remedy (1, 2, 3, 4)! But if you’re interested in trying CBD for yourself, it’s essential to know that it’s not a one-size-fits-all product.

There are lots of forms of CBD out there. But don’t worry - we’ve laid out everything you need to know about the different types of CBD.

Full-Spectrum CBD

First up, there’s full-spectrum CBD. This is basically the mega-combo of CBD; you’re getting everything here! As the name might let on, full-spectrum CBD contains all the compounds from the plant that the CBD was extracted from. This means that with full-spectrum CBD, you can also expect to find compounds like THC, CBG, flavonoids, and terpenes in your product.

Be careful with full-spectrum CBD, as it contains THC (legally 0.3% or less), which is the compound in cannabis that gets you high (5). We don’t want you taking full-spectrum CBD to calm yourself before a job interview and then turning up a little too relaxed.

Legal status: Full-spectrum CBD is legal federally in the US, so long as it contains no more than 0.3% THC. Full-spectrum CBD products that contain higher levels of THC could be legal at the state level, depending on where you live. Check your local laws to find whether THC-heavy full-spectrum CBD is legal for you (6).

Broad-Spectrum CBD

The next form of CBD is broad-spectrum CBD. Broad-spectrum CBD is essentially the same as full-spectrum CBD, except that it does not contain any THC.

So you’re still getting all the extra bits from the cannabis plant that the CBD was extracted from, but you don’t have to worry about accidentally eating an entire party-sized bag of popcorn and laughing too hard at cartoons.

Legal status: Because broad-spectrum CBD does not contain THC, it is federally legal in the US (7).

CBD Isolate

CBD isolate makes things simple; it only contains CBD. CBD isolate is perfect if you want to try CBD's effects without any interference from other cannabinoids.

Since CBD isolate is the purest form of CBD, it's great if you're a first-time user or beginner. CBD isolate is refined, and so it also doesn't have any unpleasant smells or tastes.

Legal status: As a CBD-only product, CBD isolate is federally legal in the US (8).

Which form of CBD is best?

We recommend CBD isolate! 😉 We don't want anyone to fail a drug test! Also, this keeps the flavor and potency consistent from batch to batch.

UNITY + Cafe Makai: 4.20 CBD Dining Experience

It’s been one heck of a year already, and it’s only April...so of course, we couldn’t let 4.20 pass us by without celebrating properly. This year we teamed up with Cafe MaKai to curate a memorable experience.

We are highly aligned with Cafe MaKai as their company shares a mission for sustainably sourced food and beverages. MaKai is Nashville-based and gets its food and drinks from local, sustainable sources and ensures that customers know where their food is coming from

While you might not have had the opportunity to to be there, we wanted to give you a little bit of a recap and maybe some inspiration for all you DIYers and Chefs out there.

Needless to say, after this meal, you will be zen as f* after. All of these recipes were made with our flavorless, water-soluble hemp CBD powder. Wondering what this delicious meal looked like? Do not worry, we have photos. But you must be warned, viewing these photos will cause you to become extremely hungry. Viewer discretion is advised.

Does Hemp CBD Get You High?

Cannabis and hemp products are everywhere these days; from THC to CBD, there’s an acronym out there for everyone! Hemp CBD is one of these products, and the question on most of our lips is … can it get you high?

CBD doesn’t get you high

CBD cannot get you high, which may be good or bad news, depending on what you’re after.

Whether it is derived from hemp or cannabis, CBD cannot cause a high. Another cannabinoid called THC is instead responsible for the more infamous effects of cannabis.

The main difference between CBD and THC, and where scientists think the psychotropic differences lie, is that THC strongly binds to the cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2, while CBD instead acts through non-cannabinoid receptors and other receptor pathways.

CBD may affect your high, but not in the way you think

CBD can’t get you high, and in fact, it may even reduce the effects of a high from THC.

A 2013 study found that CBD reduced the paranoia effects of THC and improved patients’ memory scores (1). CBD has shown some ability to protect you from some of the psychoactive effects of THC.

Is there a difference between hemp CBD and cannabis CBD?

Technically, the only difference between hemp CBD and cannabis CBD is where the compound originates. But, because hemp CBD contains very little THC compared to cannabis, hemp-derived CBD is more likely to be free from THC.

Is hemp CBD legal?

Because it can’t get you high, hemp CBD is more readily available in the US than THC. Provided that it contains no more than 0.3% THC, CBD is legal under federal law (2).

If you’re looking to get high, then hemp CBD is definitely not the product for you. But with its varied health benefits and legal status, don’t count out hemp CBD just because it won’t leave you giggling!
