Toxicity
Isolated Cannabinoids
When individual molecules are extracted and consumed as an isolate, they are far less potent that less refined whole plant extracts. Cannabinoids have an amazing synergistic effect and work together to produce incredible health benefits through the entire body. Single cannabinoids alone are not only less potent but they can also create unwanted side effects that nature did not intend. CBD for example reduces the high and anxiety effect high THC can cause while THC helps the absorption of CBD.
