Not sure what Full Spectrum, Broad Spectrum, or CBD Isolate means when browsing CBD products? You’re not alone. Understanding these terms can make a big difference in finding the best Carpe Diem CBD product that works best for you.
Each type of CBD offers its own unique benefits. Let’s break it down so you can shop CBD and Seize The Day!
What Is Full Spectrum CBD?
Full Spectrum CBD contains all natural occurring compounds found in the hemp plant, including:
- CBD (cannabidiol): This is the primary active compound known for delivering many of the plant’s wellness benefits.
- Additional cannabinoids: These include CBG, CBN, CBC and more. They work synergistically to enhance the entourage effect. The entourage effect refers to how the various compounds in the cannabis plant, such as cannabinoids, terpenes and flavonoids work together to enhance each other’s effects and create a more balanced and effective experience than any one compound alone. Think of it like a symphony: while each instrument (or compound) has its own unique sound (or effect), together they create a fuller, more harmonious experience.
- Terpenes & Flavonoids: These are naturally occurring aromatic compounds or fragrants that work in harmony with CBD to enhance its overall benefits.
- THC (tetrahydrocannabinol): Full Spectrum CBD contains less than 0.3% THC, which is legally required. This also contributes to the entourage effect. This minute amount does not provide a “high” or euphoria. It helps increase CBD’s effects.
Benefits:
Experience the powerful benefits of our entire organic hemp plant. It contains a rich blend of cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids and less than 0.3% THC, giving you the full entourage effect for enhanced wellness. With more active compounds working together, it offers more holistic benefits and a deeper level of relaxation and well-being.

Those that want to experience the full wellness benefits of the entire hemp plant.
