Frequently Asked Questions
Is CBD legal in the UK?
CBD products are widely sold in the UK, but legality depends on how a product is made and labelled — including THC limits and compliance expectations. Always check product labels and buy from trusted retailers.
What is the difference between hemp and CBD?
Hemp is the plant. CBD is one of the naturally occurring cannabinoids found in hemp. CBD products use hemp extracts and are then formulated into formats like oils, capsules, edibles, and topicals.
What do “full-spectrum”, “broad-spectrum”, and “isolate” mean?
Full-spectrum contains a wider range of cannabinoids and traces of THC (within legal limits where applicable). Broad-spectrum is typically THC-free while retaining multiple cannabinoids. Isolate is CBD only. Always check the product label.
How do I understand CBD strength on a label?
Look for total CBD (mg) and mg per serving. For oils, check mg per ml and serving guidance. If you’re unsure, choose a lower strength and build gradually.
Do you provide lab reports?
Many brands supply lab reports/COAs. Where provided, we link them to help you review cannabinoid content and key checks such as THC levels.
