How are Ancient Nutrition CBD products made?Updated 2 years ago

Cannabidiol, or CBD, is extracted from the aerial parts of the hemp plant (everything above ground including flowers and buds, but not including the roots). There are a number of ways that CBD can be extracted in order to make CBD products. 

Whole plant extraction uses the entire plant and is able to extract a broad spectrum of cannabinoids, not just CBD.

CBD isolates, on the other hand, feature pure CBD extracted from hemp. For hemp-derived CBD products, ethanol or CO2 extraction methods are commonly used. 

Ancient Nutrition has used both CO2 extraction and organic ethanol extraction. Currently, we use primarily organic ethanol extraction.
