Buy Savage Cabbage CBD Oil UK

CBD, otherwise known as cannabidiol, is a naturally occurring cannabinoid (or compound) in the cannabis plant. The cannabis plant contains over 100 different kinds of cannabinoids, all with varying effects and uses. Two of the most well-known and prevalent compounds are CBD and THC.

THC is the psychoactive ingredient that produces a high, where as CBD does not. CBD has grown in use and popularity due to the growing reserach and evidence that shows it can be used to improve overall health and wellbeing. The usual CBD formulation is oil, but it is also available as an extract, a vaporised liquid, capsule and gummies. Food, drinks and beauty products are among the many CBD-infused products on the market too.

Cannabis is a plant that consists of three primary species: Cannabis sativa, Cannabis indica, and Cannabis ruderalis.

While hemp and marijuana are often referred to as “strains” of Cannabis, they do not qualify as either. In fact, they cannot technically be considered as plants at all; Hemp and marijuana are simply broad classifications of Cannabis based on their cannabinoid content.

“Hemp” is a term used to classify strains that contain 0.2% or less THC content in Europe (0.3% limit in the US), and is not classified as a controlled substance.
“Marijuana” is a term used to classify strains that contain more than 0.2% THC (0.3% in the US).

Both hemp and marijuana can produce high amounts of CBD; however, the THC is the defining threshold for regulatory purposes. All products sold by Savage Cabbage are derived from legal hemp varieties of cannabis and contain no more than 0.2% THC.

CBD is generally well tolerated and safe to use, however as with all products, everyone’s circumstances are unique and we recommend understanding the product and its effects before taking. The World Health Organization (WHO) states CBD as generally well tolerated with a good safety profile, however we recommend speaking with your doctor or general practictioner if unsure, pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any other prior medical conditions.

CBD is considered non-toxic and it produces few side effects which when they occur are typically minor.

According to a report from the World Health Organization, “In humans, CBD exhibits no effects indicative of any abuse or dependence potential…. To date, there is no evidence of public health related problems associated with the use of pure CBD.”

CBD is legal in the UK as long as it contains less than 0.2% THC and it has been derived from an industrial hemp strain that is approved by the UK. THC (Tetrahydrocannabinoid) is a controlled substance under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971. You can buy with confidence on Savage Cabbage and trust that we only stock fully compliant products from the world’s trusted brands.

CBD typically won’t show on a drugs test, but if your CBD product contains THC, it may appear. THC (Tetrahydrocannabinoid) is the psychoactive ingredient derived from cannabis plants that is responsible for the “high” effect. It is legal for CBD products to contain THC amounts of less than 0.2%. This trace amount won’t make you high and there are benefits as to why THC is present in some products types. If you’re concerned about THC levels, be mindful of the type of CBD products you choose. Here is a quick breakdown: Full-spectrum CBD: Full-spectrum CBD extracts contain all of the naturally occurring compounds from the plant they’re extracted from, including THC. Broad-spectrum CBD: This is similar to full-spectrum CBD, but it goes through a process to eliminate THC. CBD isolate: This type contains only CBD.

In full spectrum products, it is highly unlikely that you will have a psychoactive effect from the THC in the product. The low level of THC (up to 0.2%) is simply to support the Entourage Effect between CBD and THC, which promotes greater efficacy on your ECS and makes a CBD product more effective.
