Full Spectrum vs Broad Spectrum vs CBD Isolate — What's the Difference?

If you're looking to buy CBD oil, you'll encounter terms like full spectrum, broad spectrum, and isolate. What do these terms mean and which one is best for you?

Full Spectrum CBD Oil

Contains all natural compounds from the hemp plant: CBD, other cannabinoids, terpenes, and trace amounts of THC (max 0.2%). The so-called entourage effect ensures that all compounds work better together.

✅ Most complete effect
✅ Entourage effect
⚠️ Contains trace amounts of THC (legal, not psychoactive)

Broad Spectrum CBD Oil

Contains all compounds from the hemp plant without THC. A good alternative for those who want absolutely no THC.

✅ No THC
✅ Still has an entourage effect

CBD Isolate

Pure CBD, nothing else. No other cannabinoids, no terpenes, no THC.

✅ 100% THC-free
❌ No entourage effect
❌ Less complete
