Is CBD Oil Legal?
Did you know CBD and CBG are two non-psychoactive cannabinoids

Have you ever wondered if CBD oil contains THC? Although CBD does not qualify as a controlled substance and cannot be detected in drug tests, some CBD products may contain small amounts of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which could potentially show up in certain tests. So, how do you choose a reliable THC-free product?
Drug tests typically analyze THC or its main metabolite, THC-COOH. Different testing methods work with different threshold levels, including the following:
In urine tests, the concentration of THC-COOH must be at least 50 nanograms/milliliter (ng/ml) to yield a positive result.
THC metabolites can be detected in urine for approximately 3-15 days after use. However, in cases of heavier or more frequent cannabis use, the test may show a positive result even after a longer period.
Blood tests are less common than urine tests in drug screenings because THC is rapidly eliminated from the bloodstream.
THC can be detected in plasma for up to five hours, while its metabolites can yield positive results for up to seven days.
Currently, saliva and hair tests are not widely used, and there are no defined threshold levels for THC detection in these types of tests.
Full spectrum CBD oils contain all the compounds naturally occurring in the plant they are extracted from, including terpenes, flavonoids, and other cannabinoids, such as CBD and THC.
On the other hand, broad-spectrum CBD products also contain additional plant compounds, including terpenes and other cannabinoids, but THC is completely removed from these formulations.
It’s important to note that drug tests detect THC, not CBD. However, it is still crucial to be careful when selecting the right CBD product.
