Are CBD and Hemp Oil the Same?

No, hemp oil and CBD oil are not the same. While they both are derived from the same plant (the Cannabis plant), the oils come from different parts of the plant and capture different substances found in the plant. Hemp oil may contain traces of CBD, but it is negligible.

Hemp oil is typically derived from the stalks and seeds of the hemp plant, whereas CBD is most prevalent in the resinous flowers or buds of the plant. CBD is a chemical compound that must be isolated and extracted from the hemp plant before it can be turned into the CBD oil you find on the shelves of your local store. It is extracted and isolated into a crystalline substance which is then added to a carrier oil (sometimes that is hemp oil) for use and consumption.

Hemp oil is rich in vitamins and fatty acids, and its nutritional value is well recorded throughout ancient and modern history.

CBD is a recently-discovered compound, and its therapeutic and medicinal uses as a tincture, edible, e-Liquid, or capsule are only beginning to be uncovered. The results are promising, and our knowledge and understanding of the potential of CBD oil are only growing.
