When purchasing your first CBG product, terminology like isolate, distillate, and full-spectrum are likely to confuse you. This may dissuade you from clicking the buy button or cause you to add a slew of different goods to your cart—don’t worry, this page will explain everything.
What exactly is Bulk CBG Isolate?
Cannabidiol (CBG), the second most frequent active component in cannabis, is extracted directly from the hemp plant. Bulk CBG isolate contains no psychotropic chemicals (no THC), is fully legal, and has been shown to have safe and soothing benefits.
Manufacturers of CBG isolate utilise a variety of different procedures to extract all of the chemicals and other components from hemp and cannabis plants, including THC. The procedure results in pure CBG crystals.
The Three Most Common Extraction Methods
CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) (CO2) Extraction – the most prevalent and dependable extraction technology that funnels and pumps CO2 via many pressurised chambers. This subjected the plants to extremely high pressure and low temperatures, resulting in an extracted oil rich in CBG.
Steam Distillation – This extraction process employs a ‘plant material’ distillation tank that is linked to another water-filled tank directly beneath it. Water is subsequently boiled, and the steam rises to the plant material tank, separating the CBG-containing oil vapours.
Solvent Extraction is identical to steam distillation, except that instead of water, another solvent is used in the second tank. This process is more efficient than steam distillation, although it typically uses butane, alcohol, propane, olive oil, or ethanol to extract the CBG, which may include toxins.
What exactly is Bulk CBG Distillate?
Bulk CBG Distillate, on the other hand, is a highly refined extract that has been distilled. It typically contains 70-80% CBG isolate, although it also contains other cannabinoids. It’s termed full-spectrum because it contains various cannabinoids, and it usually contains some THC. All goods in Florida are required by law to comply with the THC limit of 0.3%, therefore there shouldn’t be enough THC in any CBG products to get you high. Bulk CBG Distillate is a thick, golden oil, as opposed to the white, crystalized form of CBG isolate.
CBG isolate can be made from Bulk CBG Distillate by purifying it and subjecting it to a process known as recrystallization, which removes everything and leaves only pure CBG behind.
So, which is preferable: CBG Isolate or Bulk CBG Distillate?
After explaining the differences, you may be wondering which one to purchase. CBG isolate is pure, which means it contains no other cannabinoids; nevertheless, distillate does contain other cannabinoids. The full-spectrum distillate is the most effective because the many cannabinoids function synergistically together rather than just one by itself; this is known as the Entourage Effect. This carousel post has some basic information concerning the Entourage Effect. We at Bona voluntate think that distillation is always the best option. We don’t sell any ingestible or sublingual products that include solely isolate because we know they don’t work as well. Our Soothe Tincture is a tried and effective sublingual tincture. The majority of regular customers report better sleep, easier unwinding before bedtime, increased mood, alleviation of tight muscles, and an overall sensation of decreased stress levels when using tinctures. Our Soothe Tincture is our gentlest tincture, made entirely with Bulk CBG Distillate.
If you’re hesitant about trying something that contains trace amounts of other cannabinoids (such as THC, CBG, and so on), we recommend starting with a topical. Although topicals do not enter the bloodstream, they can effectively soothe fatigued, hurting muscles. This would be a wonderful initial step for someone who is hesitant to use other cannabinoids. We have a fantastic topical solution that just contains CBG isolate, making it ideal for beginners!
How Should You Take CBG?
There are smokables, ingestibles, and topicals to pick from. Smokables are the fastest to feel the effects of CBG, ingestibles are the easiest but take longer to feel the effects, and topicals are typically utilised for localised pain treatment.
You can try any of the three options to determine which one works best for your objective and needs.
