When it comes to CBD, new information is always arising. While the benefits of a full plant extract (Full Spectrum) have been known to work better for quite some time, the question we often times get is, “Why?”
So, we go on to explain the Entourage Effect and how in most cases, a better effect is found when all of the cannabinoids work together. Most customers are happy with this bit of information, although we still get asked, “But, why?” This leads us into today’s topic of, what are the other cannabinoids found in full spectrum, and what do they do?
As stated many times throughout our blogs, the two main cannabinoids that are found on cannabis plants are CBD and THC. But, there are many other secondary beneficial cannabinoids such as CBG, CBC, CBDA, CBV, etc. that all play an important part in producing the Entourage Effect.
The first cannabinoid we are going to talk about is of course, CBD. Short for cannabidiol, CBD is the most abundant cannabinoid found on all hemp plants. This one single cannabinoid is responsible for the rise in interest of cannabinoids, and their benefits. So, let’s take a look:
