What is CBD Isolate?

With legalization moving forward around the globe, consumers in cannabis pro areas now have access to purified CBD crystals. But, what is CBD isolate and how do you use it?

Way back when we really only had a couple options: smoking a joint or eating a brownie. Nowadays with the push for legalization, new products and ways to use cannabis are being created. Out of this came: CBD or cannabidiol.  This truly has changed the way the medical community is run or can be run. This cannabinoid is one of many within the cannabis plant. In fact, CBD is non-psychoactive and still has several benefits to the body medically. And from that, came CBD isolate.

CBD Isolate or CBD Crystals are growing in popularity, but many don’t really understand what they are and how they work. So, we went to the cannabis master and asked her for some advice. Mindful Mary is here to teach us all a little on this new, life-saving product.

The process starts with growing hemp or a high CBD strain. Once cultivated, the plant will go through an extraction process using either CO2, ice water, butane or alcohol. Finally, when this extraction is complete, a cannabis concentrate will be produced. However, to continue to isolate the CBD the extraction must go through a winterization process to remove impurities.
