Broad-spectrum hemp extract is a type of CBD product that contains various cannabinoids and compounds found in the hemp plant, except for THC, the psychoactive compound. This extract includes CBD, minor cannabinoids like CBG and CBN, terpenes, and flavonoids, which together may offer therapeutic benefits through the 'entourage effect' — a theory suggesting that cannabis compounds work better together than in isolation. Broad-spectrum products are chosen by individuals looking to leverage the potential health benefits of cannabis without experiencing the psychoactive effects associated with THC.
