What are the Advantages and Disadvantages of Full-Spectrum CBD

When a product is referred to as full-spectrum, this means that it contains all the different compounds (terpenes, flavonoids) and cannabinoids (of which there are more than 100) the cannabis plant has to offer. Recently, cannabis experts have started advocating whole plant extractions due to a mechanism called the ‘entourage effect,’ wherein all of the compounds and phytocannabinoids contained in the plant interact, creating a synergistic effect that enhances the positive health benefits they produce.
