CBD, or cannabidiol, is one of the active compounds found within the Hemp plant.

Research is showing that the Endocannabinoid system is a vital bodily system in all mammals. So, even our fury friends have it. It is responsible for establishing and maintaining overall well being. The ECS and CBD receptors, CB1 and CB2, are found throughout the body, in the brain, connective tissue, organs, glands and immune system.

The term Full Spectrum refers to a Hemp Extract that provides the full panel of Cannabinoids, Terpenes, Plant Sterols, Fatty Acids and all the other good things from the plant.

No. CBD does not produce any psychoactive effect.

Although they are from the same Cannabis Sativa plant family, Hemp and the Marijuana plant are different in many ways. The main differences are that Hemp yields high CBD and low THC (mandatory less than 0.3% per dry weight), where Marijuana produces high THC and low CBD. THC is the psychoactive part of the plant.

It depends on the test being used, but Full Spectrum CBD can flag on a drug test. With a Full Spectrum product, small amounts of THC are naturally occurring and legal under 0.3% per dry weight. This THC may be detectable on a drug test. If drug testing is a concern, the best thing you can do it to open a dialogue with whoever is requesting the test. Provide your bottle of CBD, with the COA, and honestly state your medical preference is to take the hemp extract instead of a dangerous narcotic.

We are still learning so much about this herb, extraction method is debatable in the industry. At Firefly Farms we like the Supercritical CO2 extraction method for its cleanliness, low environmental impact, and low temperature, which allows us to retain all of the plant’s beneficial Cannabinoids.
