In general there are three types of CBD available:
Broad Spectrum CBD Oil – This is the oil extracted from the hemp plant and prepared so that it does not contain any detectable THC (the substance in marijuana that can cause a euphoric effect). It does contain other nutritional cannibinoids and terpenes (useful substances in hemp and other botanicals). Broad Spectrum CBD oil, when properly prepared and imported, is legal in Japan. HealthyTOKYO uses broad spectrum CBD oil in all of our branded tinctures.
CBD Isolate – This is an extraction of pure CBD powder processed from CBD oil. It does not contain any of the other nutritional cannibinoids or terpenes (useful substances in hemp and other botanicals) from the hemp plant. it also does not contain any detectable THC (the substance in marijuana that can cause a euphoric effect). CBD Isolate, when properly prepared and imported, is legal in Japan.  Some professional athletes prefer CBD isolate over broad spectrum products.
Full Spectrum Oil – This is the oil directly pressed from the hemp plant and contains all of the cannabinoids in the original hemp plant. This oil is not legal in Japan as it does contain various levels of THC, the substance in marijuana that can cause a euphoric effect.
