CBD is the abbreviation for the compound Cannabidiol and it is one of 113 identified phytocannabinoids found in cannabis and hemp. There is good evidence that it has potential benefit to a wide range of systems in our body because it exerts its effect through the body’s endocannabinoid system. We’ve all heard of our body’s cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal system, respiratory system, and so forth, but did you know your body also has an endocannabinoid system?
The endocannabinoid system was identified in the 1992 by Raphael Mechoulam, an Israeli organic chemist and professor of Medicinal Chemistry at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel. Studying the effects of cannabis since the 60’s, Dr. Mechoulam ascertained that THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) interacts with the largest receptor system in the human body, the endocannabinoid system (ECS).
He then found that the human brain produces its very own Cannabis-like substance, a chemical they named "anandamide" after the Sanskrit word ananda, meaning “bliss”. Anandamide exerts positive effects on mood, memory, brain function and pain, but it is rapidly inactivated by an enzyme (FAAH) making its effect short lived. CBD actually inhibits the action of the enzyme FAAH so that the body’s naturally made anandamide continues to be active, prolonging the positive effect on mood, memory, brain function and pain relief.
Our body’s ECS has at least two major receptors, CB 1 and CB 2, and also produces other endocannabinoids beside anandamide. The CB 1 receptors are typically found in the brain and throughout the nervous system while CB 2 receptors are primarily found in the immune system. Consequently, we can see why CBD oil is touted to treat illnesses from A to Z…acne, allergy, anxiety, epilepsy, pain, etc.

CBD oil contains a number of different cannabinoids, as well as essential vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, and amino acids, but may also contain other active components such as flavonoids and terpenes. THC, the psychoactive component in hemp, is found in higher concentrations in products designed for use such as medical marijuana.
The pure CBD isolate variety has absolutely no THC. The CBD isolate also does not contain the additional flavonoids and terpenes. The pure CBD isolate variety definitely provides benefit to the endocannabinoid system of the body, as we discussed previously: acne, allergy, anxiety, epilepsy, pain, etc.
The premium variety of CBD oil, called "full spectrum," does contain these additional active components of flavonoids and terpenes, all working together to provide enhancement called the “entourage effect.” Since the full spectrum variety contains these additional active components, it can also have trace amounts of the psychoactive THC. However, all full spectrum products available outside of the medical and recreational hemp realm, by law have less than 0.3% THC and therefore have no psychoactive effects on a person, though may possibly result in a positive THC drug screen. For those not exposed to a potential drug screen, the full spectrum variety of CBD oil may provide a more robust benefit as the cannabinoids, flavonoids, and terpenes work synergistically to enhance and broaden the benefit.
So now that you know the difference between regular and premium (isolate and full spectrum), you should be ready to select the product that best suits your situation. To help ensure you select a product that delivers potency, purity, and quality these five questions will provide the information you need to make a wise decision.
Industrial hemp is a variety of the Cannabis sativa plant species grown specifically for the industrial uses of its derived products. Commercially it has been refined into paper, textiles, clothing, biodegradable plastics, paint, insulation, biofuel, food, cosmetics, nutritional supplements and animal feed. While industrial hemp and marijuana are both members of the Cannabis sativa species, they have distinctive biochemical compositions and uses.
Unique to industrial hemp are the high amounts of phytocannabinoids (sometimes referred to as CBD, which is an abbreviation for cannabidiol), a prominent naturally-occurring cannabinoid component found in Cannabis Sativa. CBD is “a cannabinoid devoid of psychoactive effect.” After THC (Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD is by far the most studied natural cannabinoid. According to many researchers it may be the single most important cannabinoid ever discovered.
Phytocannabinoids are harvested from industrial hemp which has been specifically cultivated for medicinal and industrial use with high CBD content and THC levels below 0.3%. Marijuana, on the other hand, is harvested from Cannabis plants that are cultivated with high THC and low CBD content.
Through a combination of unique cultivars, advanced plant genetics, and cutting-edge growing techniques, an exceptionally high percentage of CBD oil with low levels of THC* can legally be produced around the world and in the US naturally and consistently from industrial hemp. Made with the oil from these hemp cultivars, CBD can legally be distributed and sold throughout the US in a variety of products containing little or no THC.
Super Critical CO2 & Liquid Chromatography Extraction—the Gold Standard! Crucial to the quality of natural hemp CBD-rich oil is extraction, which takes place after the plants have been harvested and dried. Inexpensive methods yielding low quality CBD oil involve toxic solvents such as propane, hexane, pentane, and butane, which are flammable hydrocarbon gases found in petroleum.
Another popular method uses organic, pharmaceutical-grade ethanol or grain alcohol to eliminate certain toxins and residues in the raw plant material itself. While this yields a high amount of cannabinoids and is GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) for human consumption, it can also destroy the plant’s waxes, leading to a less potent oil.
The most proven method of extraction yielding the highest quality hemp CBD oil is Supercritical CO2, which uses carbon dioxide under high pressure and extremely low temperatures to isolate, preserve, and maintain oil purity, preserving the highest percentage of the plant’s trichomes – cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids. While more expensive and requiring complex equipment and expertise, Supercritical CO2 extraction is the only method used by growers and producers of the full spectrum hemp CBD oil used in all Med 7 products.
The US and European Union require all legally distributed and sold CBD products contain less than 0.3% and 0.2% THC respectively. Because CBD and THC are so similar, other companies producing full spectrum hemp oil have to strip them both out and later in the process reintroduce CBD back into the mix as an isolate. Other methods include diluting the CBD content with other oils and ingredients to meet these regulations. Med 7 is one of the only US companies to use column chromatography to remove any unwanted amounts of THC without removing CBD or other cannabinoids.
Med7 uses Purzorb* technology which makes full spectrum hemp oil, including CBD, more bio-available without changing its structure or losing its efficacy. With an absorption rate of 85% and peak effect in under 15 minutes, Med 7 is the fastest, most efficient full spectrum hemp CBD oil you can buy.
