Is CBD oil the same as hempseed oil?



If you've searched for hemp oil on Amazon, you may have found some amazing prices, and potency, that seem to be much lower than the cost of products at PhenomWell or other CBD stores (either online or in the stores).


Don't be fooled.


The prices are great, but the product is completely different.


There's nothing wrong with hemp oil. It's a high-quality, plant-based source of omega-3 fatty acids with great nutritional value.


And it's great moisturizer for your skin.


But there is no CBD in hempseed oil.


Hempseed oil comes from cold pressing hemp seeds, and hemp oil alone does not contain any cannabinoids.


It's the cannabinoids, that come from the flower, that offer the benefits, such as pain management, that most CBD users are looking for.


CBD is short for cannabidiol, and it's the most prominent cannabinoid found in the hemp plant.


CBD is extracted from the stalks, stemsflowers and leaves -- not the seeds.


CBD can be used as a medicine-like supplement for pain, inflammation, anxiety, depression, sleep, seizures, and other ailments -- as well as for overall good health.


There are at least 113 cannabinoids in hemp -- in the flower.


PhenomWell offers full spectrum and broad spectrum CBD products that include the minor cannabinoids also. This provides the "entourage effect," which means the compounds work together to provide a better result than isolating only the CBD.


While hemp oil may be a superfood, it's the kind of food we could compare to olive oil.


CBD is often mixed with an oil, as a carrier. The most common oils used are hemp, olive, and MCT oils.


At PhenomWell, we use CBD that is designed for maximum absorption, which is why we use CBD that's nano emulsified in MCT oil. MCT oil is basically coconut oil and is known for providing a high level of bioavailability.


So if you're looking for CBD and find a great price online for hemp extract, don't be deceived. Be sure to check the CBD content. The oil alone will be great on a tossed salad, but it's unlikely to relieve pain, anxiety, and insomnia.
