Key Takeaways:
*[[ Broad-Spectrum vs Full-Spectrum ]]*
- Broad-spectrum retains nearly all the same nutrients and compounds as full-spectrum, except THC.
- You still get cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids, and hemp-derived nutrients.
*[[ Broad-Spectrum vs Isolate ]]*
- Broad-spectrum is nutritionally richer than isolate, which strips away everything except pure CBD.
- Isolate lacks terpenes, flavonoids, and additional cannabinoids, so no entourage effect.
*[[ Nutrient Retention ]]*
- Both full-spectrum and broad-spectrum oils can contain hemp’s natural fatty acids, vitamins (like vitamin E), and minerals if minimally processed.
- The exact nutrient profile depends heavily on the brand and extraction method.
In short: Broad-spectrum CBD oil retains most of the same nutrients as full-spectrum CBD oil (minus THC), and far more than CBD isolate.
