What is Broad-Spectrum?

Broad-spectrum describes a cannabis or hemp extract that keeps many of the plant’s compounds but has the THC removed or reduced to trace levels.

Broad-spectrum sits between full-spectrum and pure isolate: it retains a range of cannabinoids and terpenes while removing detectable THC. It appeals to consumers who want multiple plant compounds without the THC, such as those subject to drug testing. As with all extracts, a certificate of analysis is used to confirm what it does and does not contain.
