Full Spectrum CBD Cream is a topical product infused with CBD, other cannabinoids, terpenes, and trace amounts of THC (less than 0.3%) from the hemp plant, often combined with moisturizing or soothing ingredients like coconut oil or menthol. Unlike Pure CBD Cream (CBD isolate, no THC) or Broad Spectrum CBD Cream (multiple cannabinoids, no THC), it leverages the “entourage effect,” where compounds may work together for enhanced effects. It’s applied to the skin for localized relief.
Users commonly apply it to relieve muscle soreness, joint pain, inflammation, or skin conditions like psoriasis or dryness. The entourage effect may amplify CBD’s anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties. While some studies support CBD’s potential for pain and inflammation, topical research is limited, and it’s not FDA-approved for medical use. Results vary, so consult a doctor for chronic conditions.
It’s legal in the U.S. under the 2018 Farm Bill if hemp-derived and contains less than 0.3% THC. Generally safe for topical use, it may cause skin irritation in sensitive individuals or allergic reactions to ingredients like essential oils. Systemic side effects are rare due to minimal bloodstream absorption, but check for drug interactions if using other medications. Consult a healthcare provider if unsure.
Rub a small amount into the affected area 1-3 times daily or as needed, massaging until absorbed. Start with a thin layer and reapply if necessary, following product guidelines. The amount depends on the area size and CBD strength (e.g., 500-2000 mg per container). Avoid applying to broken skin or mucous membranes unless directed. Consult a doctor for persistent issues.
Topical application typically results in minimal bloodstream absorption, so it’s unlikely to cause a high or trigger a drug test, even with trace THC (<0.3%). However, frequent or heavy use could theoretically lead to trace THC accumulation. To eliminate risk, choose products with third-party lab testing (Certificates of Analysis) verifying THC levels, or opt for THC-free isolate or broad-spectrum creams.
Been on this a month . no side effects at all, just daily calm.
Goes on smooth, kicks in within a few minutes. no complaints.
Awesome for muscle tension. absorbs fast and smells clean too.
Heavy texture but solid relief. I keep going back to this one.
