One of our most popular questions and best answer we can offer is that there’s still more research to be done. If you’re interested in summary of the latest research and our thoughts on it all, click here!

The term non-psychoactive generally means CBD doesn’t get you ‘high.’ While it’s true that CBD won’t get you high the way THC does, it can lead to changes in perspective, mood, and behaviour.

The effects of CBD often depend on dose and bioavailability. Products with higher doses and more bioavailability can produce effects that are easy to notice. Products with lower doses and less bioavailability will produce effects that are less obvious, but that’s okay too.

Unlikely, but be sure to check ingredient lists for carrier oils that may aggravate sensitivities.

Maybe. CBD products often contain trace amounts of THC. LoFi products are made using high-CBD hemp with less than 0.3% THC, but in some cases, this may be sufficient for failing a drug test.

Yes, it can, so be sure to check with a pharmacist regarding your individual needs. CBD inhibits the cytochrome P450 enzyme, which is involved in metabolizing many drugs. Compounds in grapefruit inhibit the same enzyme group, which is why physicians advise patients not to eat grapefruit shortly before or after taking a medication. By inhibiting cytochrome P450, CBD can either reduce or increase the effects of other drugs. It may be advisable for a physician to monitor a patient’s blood levels of other medications while taking CBD in some situations. See CBD-Drug Interactions: The Role of Cytochrome P450 for more information.

Although cannabidiol (CBD) has been studied since its molecular structure was discovered in the 60s, only a few clinical studies (using people as test subjects in a controlled setting) have been conducted. While these studies strongly suggest that CBD will benefit people, more real-life investigation is needed.

Full Spectrum is our way of telling you that our products include a full spectrum of the plants beneficial compounds. When we extract CBD from our hemp flower, we’re also extracting minor cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids. Together they work synergistically to create the entourage effect!

Probably not. By definition, hemp is cannabis with less than 0.3% THC, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that the plant is rich in CBD. Most of Canada’s approved cultivars are low in CBD as they are intended for things like textiles or animal feed. Translation: even with high-CBD genetics, it will take a LOT of hemp to get the same effect as a hemp-derived extract.

It depends on what you mean by CBD oil. If you’re asking about the oils and drops commonly referred to as tinctures, the answer is definitely not. These products contain other ingredients like carrier oils and flavouring agents that could cause serious harm to your lungs when vaped.

From a scientific perspective, cannabis and hemp are the same plant, and molecularly, CBD is the same. The key differentiator is the level of THC the plant contains. If it contains over 0.3% THC, it is legally cannabis and is subjected to stricter rules for production, storage and sales. Industrial hemp, containing less than 0.3% THC, costs less to produce, is sustainable and is ideal for CBD extraction.
