What is Hemp-Derived CBD Oil?

 

This oil contains high amounts of CBD and less amount of THC. People also ask about the difference between CBD oil and Hemp-derived CBD oil, I have to clear it here that there is no difference in both these terms, CBD oil is the extraction from Hemp. Hemp-derived CBD oil interacts with the endocannabinoid system and has copious health properties and became a talk of the town these days.

 

Where Hemp oil originates from?

 

Basically, Marijuana and Hemp both belong to the same species of plant kingdom known as “Cannabis Sativa”. The cannabis plant contains around 400 chemical compounds in it, out of the 113 compounds are called Cannabinoids. These Cannabinoids have the potential to affect our brain cells directly through Cannabinoid receptors. The only difference between Hemp and Marijuana is the amount of THC present in them, in hemp THC is present in less than 0.3% of its dry weight (leaves and buds). From the genus Cannabis, manufacturers are extracting two types of oils; CBD oil and Hemp oil. CBD oil is extracted from the whole mature plant (buds, stalks, flowers, and leaves) whereas Hemp oil is extracted specifically from its seeds. The extraction process of Hemp oil from the seeds is known as Cold pressing process. The raw nutritious contents of the seeds will be preserved with the help of this process.

 

What Does CBD Contains?

 

Hemp oil is edible oil just like sunflower oil and jojoba oil, it is also used as nutritious oil. It contains a blend of nutrients such as high levels of good proteins, polyunsaturated acids, Vitamin E, and stands among rare oils containing Omega -3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. These essential fatty acids are considered good from a nutritional point of view. Contact a CTFO associate for more info.
