THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CBD AND HEMP SEED OIL.
Cannabidiol or CBD is produced using many parts of the hemp plant. It contains over one hundred active cannabinoid compounds found exclusively in the cannabis plant. CBD acts as an analgesic and anti-inflammatory, which reduces pain and inflammation. It has been used for centuries to successfully provide pain relief to muscle aches, arthritis, joint pain, neuropathic conditions, headaches, and to aid skin conditions like acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea. In addition, when taken internally, it can help with anxiety and promotes a calm sense of wellbeing. As mentioned in other post on this blog, CBD has an extensive list of benefits to those who use it.
HEMP SEED OIL
Hemp seed oil, on the other hand, has none of the cannabinoids, terpenes and other beneficial ingredients found in CBD. Hemp seed oil is high in antioxidants, omega-3 and -6 fatty acids and is therefore extremely good for you as a health food supplement. Hemp seed or cannabis sativa seed oil has been available in health food stores for decades and abundantly present in smoothies and skin care, but it does not contain CBD or any cannabinoids.
BUYER BEWARE
One must be cautious when purchasing CBD to confirm that they are not purchasing hemp seed oil, as the two have completely different uses and since hemp seed oil has no cannabinoids, it will not do what CBD can do. The only recourse a buyer has is to check the Certificate of Analysis for the product in question to make sure it contains the amount of CBD it advertises. As I have mentioned before, Eden Organics has Certificates of Analysis for every product it offers for sale and any shopper at Eden Organics can be assured we only carry quality CBD products
