Simply put, CBD oil, or the more commonly used term “tincture,” is the cannabinoid Cannabidiol suspended in a digestible oil. Sometimes CBD is the sole cannabinoid contained within the tincture, these are commonly referred to as isolate products. In other instances, the CBD may be combined with other cannabinoids such as CBN or CBG, flavor molecules called terpenes, trace amounts of THC or other, more exotic extracts such as Red Velvet Deer Antler. In your search for the perfect tincture, you’ll more than likely come across the terms “Isolate” “Broad Spectrum,” and “Full Spectrum.” An isolate is simply the cannabinoid by itself – so in this case, purely CBD and the oil it’s suspended in. They feature no significant other cannabinoids, contain no terpenes and have 0% THC content. Sometimes all you need is a single cannabinoid, and isolates offer a great choice. Increasingly, emphasis in the industry is being placed on the “Entourage Effect,” which is a theory that posits that cannabinoids actually work more effectively when they’re consumed in conjunction with each other. By combining cannabinoids together, they can produce a synergistic effect, increasing the potency of the individual components for a more effective and all-encompassing impact on your health. Broad-spectrum tinctures therefore often contain traces of more than one cannabinoid, as well as terpenes (or flavored oil molecules), and minerals but 0% THC ( Tetrahydrocannabinol) the psychoactive compound that is found in larger, psychoactive, quantities in marijuana. Full-spectrum tinctures will often contain traces of more than one cannabinoid, in addition to other beneficial plant compounds such as terpenes which can provide flavor profiles. But all full-spectrum tinctures should always contain trace amounts of THC in them (though it’s important to note that the THC content still falls within the legal federal limit and is not psychoactive). THC is used in full-spectrum tinctures as initial scientific research seems to indicate that it can also magnify the effects of the CBD and other cannabinoids similar to the entourage effect mentioned above.

Can you use CBD oil for pain relief?

While CBD cannot legally be claimed as a treatment method per the FDA, an increasing number of scientific studies have shown that CBD can influence brain receptors to minimize the levels of pain registered in the body by the brain. CBD seems to reduce both chronic and neuropathic pain, meaning it may offer you a powerful analgesic aid. nic and neuropathic pain, meaning it may offer you a powerful analgesic aid.

Can you use CBD oil for anxiety?

While consumers of CBD products often cite a wealth of personal benefits from consuming cannabinoids, Cannabidiol specifically seems to show the most promise as an aid in the fight against anxiety, the leading cause in the onset of depressive symptoms. CBD has been shown in studies to reduce stress, panic and even symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

What are the benefits of CBD oil?

CBD influences the internal cannabinoid receptors found in all of our bodies, a biological network referred to as the “Endocannabinoid System” or ECS for short. The ECS can influence all manner of bodily systems, such as brain activity, metabolism, circadian rhythm, and more. But our bodies have a harder time with consuming raw cannabinoids alone, therefore they need to be combined with other ingredients to expedite and maximize absorption levels into the body effectively. With tinctures, cannabinoids are combined with an oil, as fats are relatively soluble and pass into our bloodstream with greater ease. The faster the cannabinoids can enter your vascular system, the more rapidly they can be distributed throughout the various biological systems within. And by using a tincture, you can actually accelerate the onset rate even further, as the application is done sub-lingually, or under the tongue. Our tongues have numerous capillaries and veins under them, which allows for faster movement of the cannabinoids directly into the bloodstream. In addition to relieving symptoms of stress and pain, CBD can also help to promote a healthy sleep cycle by regulating the circadian rhythm that dictates when we fall asleep and wake up. It can also potentially minimize muscle tension and provide antibacterial properties that may help in the fight against infections such as staphylococcus and MRSA.

What are the side effects of CBD?

No side effects are typically reported of CBD. But we always encourage you to consult with your personal doctor before beginning the use of any cannabinoid products.

Why is Keylife the best CBD oil?

We’ve spent years cultivating the best farming methods, testing protocols and quality assurance systems possible. In the current cannabinoid marketplace, consumers have rightfully gone above and beyond in doing their due diligence on product research. Customers want to know every facet of how a product is made and what it contains. Keylife, in turn, has strived to develop products that we personally use because we love them so much. We use only non-gmo, organic cannabis plants, grown entirely in Oregon in the U.S. We oversee the farming, ensure no plant is ever treated with pesticides or contains heavy metals, and test all of our products to guarantee they’re fee of unnecessary preservatives or additives. You can rest easy knowing the label on every Keylife product accurately represents the contents within, by reviewing all of our lab testing reports on our website. On top of our own internal testing, each published report is conducted by independent, third-party labs to ensure no bias.

Due to FDA requirements, we cannot legally make medical claims on efficacy. But we strongly encourage you to review the vast amount of positive personal consumer feedback and the ongoing research of the multitude of publicly available and verified scientific studies.

CBD has shown little evidence of having negative impacts on those who consume it. But, as always, we encourage you to consult with a health professional before beginning any cannabinoid use, to ensure the certainty of no negative interactions with any medications or treatments you may be receiving.

Does CBD oil get you high?

In short, no. While full-spectrum tinctures will typically contain trace amounts of THC, it should always be within the legal limits of 0.3%, as determined by the U.S. Farm Bills of both 2014 and 2018, which allowed for the legalization of the farming of hemp. This 0.3% is below the legally detectable limit, and therefore highly unlikely to produce any noticeable psychoactive effects.

How does CBD oil make you feel?

Personal experiences can vary, but many people report that CBD can produce an overall sense of calm. Cannabidiol may help to minimize stress and pain responses, promote a healthy circadian rhythm (sleep cycle) and encourage homeostasis, or a sense of balance, within various bodily systems. This means your brain may be less impacted by the distractions that might typically plague you, and allow for greater levels of mental focus, a relief from the symptoms of ongoing pain, and a promotion of overall levels of happiness and wellbeing.

Do your products have THC in them?

Our “full-spectrum” tinctures may contain trace amounts of THC, though, as mentioned previously, they are always at or below the legal limit of 0.3% and should not produce noticeable psychoactive effects. If you prefer your CBD products free of all THC, we suggest using an “Isolate” form of tincture. But remember, you may miss out on the aforementioned “entourage effect” that can synergize or increase the positive effects of your CBD or other cannabinoids.

Will I fail a drug test if I use CBD oil?

CBD generally doesn’t show up on a drug test. In some cases, there can be traces of THC in some CBD products. This is the main, active ingredient in marijuana, and the ingredient that gets you “high”. If you have THC in your system and take a drug test, it could come back positive. But Keylife doesn’t have any THC in our “Isolate” CBD tinctures, so you shouldn’t have to worry about drug testing issues if you choose this option.

What is hemp seed oil?

Hemp seed oil is a fat extracted from the hemp seeds that naturally grow inside the hemp plant flowers. It is a nutritionally beneficial product that is high in unsaturated fat, specifically Omega-3 fatty acids. Unsaturated fat is sometimes referred to as a “good” type of fat as it can help to reduce the levels of potentially unhealthy saturated fats that we often consume in our diets. Hemp seed oil can also often contain additional trace elements of cannabinoids or other nutritionally beneficial compounds that may aid in joint and skin health. And, as we’ve already discussed, cannabinoids are best absorbed into the body when combined with more-easily soluble fat molecules. Many manufacturers choose MCT or coconut oil as it’s a cheap and more readily available alternative, but at Keylife, we believe the added potential health benefits of hemp seed oil make for a better-quality tincture. It’s worth noting that hemp and “marijuana” are both derived from the cannabis plant. The difference is that hemp is cultivated under the parameters of the Farm Bill, thus requiring the THC content be at 0.3% or lower levels, while marijuana is simply cannabis that has been allowed to let THC surpass that 0.3% threshold, which, in turn, produces a strong psychoactive effect.

What is the difference between CBD and hemp extract?

CBD extract is the cannabinoid oil extracted from the flowers and actual plant matter of the cannabis plant via, in our case, a super-critical CO 2 method. Hemp extract is basically another term for hemp seed oil and is the fat extracted from the seeds themselves found in cannabis plants. Both are nutritionally beneficial and safe to consume, though CBD extract is more likely to provide a wider array of potential health benefits.
