There are two primary cannabinoid receptors, CB1 and CB2 located that are located throughout body that are part of the ECS. When you consume CBD oil, these receptors become activated which help maintain the body’s internal balance.
Are Standard Extracts CBD products made from marijuana or hemp?
Our products are made from industrial hemp grown in Colorado. Although hemp and marijuana are referred to as cousins, they have very different chemical profiles. For instance, hemp has a much higher concentration of CBD compared to THC. And in contrast, marijuana tends to have a high concentration of THC. By definition, industrial hemp is any part or derivative of the plant that contains less than 0.3% THC.
Will Standard Extracts products pop up on a drug test?
Since our CBD products are full-spectrum, rather than an isolate, there are small traces of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), but less than 0.1%. Because every person has a unique biochemistry, it’s not possible to know for certain what the drug test will show. So, we recommend consulting your primary doctor or health care provider before consuming CBD.

Full spectrum hemp contains all compounds that naturally occur in the hemp plant. These compounds include terpenes, other cannabinoids, and flavonoids. The full spectrum of these beneficial compounds work synergistically to increase the effects of a CBD product. This is also known as the “entourage effect.”
In contrast, CBD isolate undergoes a process to remove everything in the plant, except CBD. Although the result is pure CBD, the final product lacks other important compounds. And without these compounds working together, the benefits can be significantly less than a full spectrum hemp product.
