CBD is an active compound of the cannabis plant; it logically falls under the French regulations concerning the prohibition of the use of cannabis. But since CBD is not considered a narcotic, there is an exemption for its extraction and use, unlike its cousin THC.
Initially, there was a derogation on the use of hemp, allowing the use of certain varieties of plants, mainly in industry.
CBD can only be extracted from selected hemp varieties listed in the Public Health Code containing less than 0.2% THC.
CBD can only be extracted from the fibers and seeds of the plant.
CBD products should not contain THC.
CBD legislation is more restrictive in France than in Europe, which currently poses a serious problem concerning the free movement of goods; Given the democratization of CBD products and the current state of the law, possible changes may be expected shortly.
The Difference Between THC And CBD
THC and CBD are both phytocannabinoids, but they do not have the same effects on the body.
THC is known for its solid psychotropic effects; with it, there can be a “high” or euphoric effect but also the appearance of adverse effects (paranoia, anxiety attacks
The Difference Between Hemp Oil And CBD Oil
Hemp oil is, above all, vegetable oil like any other extracted from hemp seeds. This oil is usually produced using a method of cold pressing the seeds to harvesting the oil they contain while avoiding the loss of certain nutrient compounds beneficial to the body. Hemp seed oil is an oil rich in essential omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, which also contains vitamin E with antioxidant properties, highly valued in cosmetology. Hemp oil can be used as fat to prepare recipes and be used in the composition of beauty or skincare products.
CBD oil usually consists of a vegetable oil base. It can be hemp seed oil or olive oil and CBD. There are as many CBD oil recipes as manufacturers to invent them; some add plant or root extracts that provide complementary effects and make these oils very rich and beneficial for the body. CBD is extracted from Hemp.
The main difference between these two oils is that hemp oil does not contain CBD. It is classic vegetable oil, while CBD oil is a vegetable oil supplemented with cannabidiol and may also contain traces of other cannabinoids and terpenes. You can try peppermint CBD oil tincture by Nirvana CBD.
CBD For Animals
CBD is not only intended for humans and can have effects on our animal friends as well. Mammals (and vertebrates in general) also have an endocannabinoid system and are sensitive to the use of cannabinoids. Dogs, cats, horses, like humans, can be susceptible to CBD. It is therefore essential to offer them products adapted to their morphology and their often highly developed senses. A few manufacturers offer CBD products specially designed for animals, usually in oils or supplements that respect their diet.
The fact of giving CBD to your pet should always be considered. We also advise you to consult your regular veterinarian before any administration of CBD, especially if your pet is on medication.
