Cannabis vs Hemp =====>
Cannabidiol expression is typically limited to flowering buds and not stalk, fiber, or sterilized seeds; this is true of all cannabis varieties. Traditional hemp is an inefficient source of CBD, requiring many acres to be cultivated to produce significant amounts of CBD extract. Moreover, hemp is considered a “bioaccumulator” or “phytoremediator.” It absorbs heavy metals and other chemical waste from the soil [12]. Accordingly, if large quantities of hemp are being cultivated to produce CBD, it is critically important that the quality of the soil is closely monitored and regulated.
The seeds of industrial hemp plants have important uses in human nutrition. They are a good source of protein, and the seed oil is rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. The seed is used to make bread, cereals, and protein powder; the oil is used for margarine, salad dressing, cosmetics, and dietary supplements.
However, hemp seeds contain virtually no cannabinoids, which are in the flowers and (to a lesser extent) in the upper leaves [13]. Hemp seed oil is often used to dissolve the thick CBD extract (hence the term “CBD hemp oil”); however, as noted, olive oil, refined coconut oil, and other vehicles also can be used (hence the term “CBD oil”). In all cases, the CBD has been extracted from the flowering portion of the plant. If the entire plant is harvested, the CBD has been extracted from the total plant material, including the flowering portion.
the bottom line,.. any oil,... olive oil, refined coconut oil, sea buckhorn oil, etc and other vehicles also can be used as a transport vehicle for high quality cannabis-based products.
if hemp is used it is only for a transport vehicle only and as noted,... hemp seeds contain virtually no cannabinoids.
