Full Spectrum A full spectrum oil is a whole plant extract. This means the oil contains multiple cannabinoids, vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, proteins, terpenes and flavonoids. Having all of these components allows you to get the most out of the entourage effect meaning this is the most effective choice.

Broad Spectrum Broad Spectrum oils typically have no or undetectable THC. Hence the name “broad&” instead of “full”. A broad spectrum oil can be 2 or more isolated blended together or a blend of whole plant extracts. These whole plant extracts are mixed together until THC is not present or is undetectable. Our Sacred Leaf THC Zero products have exactly zero THC which is a great way for those concerned about THC contact.

Using Delta-8 to Sleep

Can't Sleep

[et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.9.11″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,2_3″ _builder_version=”4.9.11″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.9.11″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.11″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Many have experienced beneficial Delta-8 results in the U.S. You’ve likely heard of the minor cannabinoid and its range of uses.  Popular among smoke shops and wellness enthusiasts, Delta-8 THC is a legal way to get high. There are quite a few reasons why it’s so popular.  Is Delta-8 more than just a way of getting high? Can you use it for achieving a meaningful and restful sleep similar to CBD or Delta-9 THC?  What is Delta-8’s potential as a sleep aid, relaxation tool and more? Let’s explore everything about this form of THC and how it can improve your days and nights.

What Is Delta-8?

Delta-8 THC is a derivative found in incredibly small percentages within the hemp plant.

 

The 2018 Farm Bill legalized industrial hemp and all its derivatives containing 0.3% Delta-9 THC or less, and Delta-8 THC is in this category. This form of THC is fully legal and proudly retails at Sacred Leaf Austin. Delta-8 is like other THCs, a psychoactive cannabinoid. Its high is less intense, designed to keep you alert and in control.

 

In fact, many users report not experiencing the all-too-familiar adverse side effects other standard Delta-9 THC delivers such as paranoia and anxiety felt from over-consumption of cannabis.

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.14.8″ _module_preset=”default” title_text=”SleepingArt” background_image=”https://www.sacredleafaustin.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/SleepingArt.jpg” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″ background_blend=”color-dodge” animation_style=”slide”][et_pb_column _builder_version=”4.14.8″ _module_preset=”default” type=”4_4″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.14.8″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″ text_text_color=”#000000″]

Just like other cannabis compounds that can affect your endocannabinoid system, Delta-8 has the potential to impact the mind and body’s natural rhythms.  Our sleep cycle, otherwise known as our circadian rhythm is why it can benefit your sleep experience.  So, is a cannabinoid such as Delta-8 effective for regulating sleep?  The answer is – it can be.

Delta-8 THC can help by regulating the sleeping process. Incorporating Delta-8 THC into your evening routine can make it easier to achieve a more meaningful and restful sleep.

Delta-8’s Potential Efficacy For Better Sleep

We know that CBD, or cannabidiol, has been used as a natural sleep aid for a long time.  CBD is non-psychoactive, with a calming effect, making it easier to fall – and stay – asleep.  It may even be able to significantly influence your circadian rhythm in a positive way.

We know that CBD shares a lot in common with Delta-9 THC and other cannabinoids found in hemp.  What about Delta-8?  According to theAccording the National Cancer Institute, Delta-8 THC may bind twice with our endocannabinoid receptors found in the nervous system, playing a role in calming down processes like hectic mental activity, rapid heart rate and unsteady breathing.

Delta-8 could just as easily promote rest and ease your sleep cycle.  Research on Delta-8 THC regarding its effects on sleep are expanding.  In the future there should be easier access to important research on this subject.

Almost 62% of CBD users reported using CBD to treat medical conditions were, PAIN, ANXIETY, AND DEPRESSION.

If you find yourself feeling a lack of appetite whether you are unwell or just have no desire to eat, CBD usage will help increase this.

Studies show that CBD works extremely effectively for treating inflammation.  It works directly with the glycine receptor by blocking the pain signals it transmits through the body.

WAYS TO TAKE CBD

Unlike many other nootropics and natural health supplements, CBD can be taken in a variety of forms.  Generally speaking, these can be divided into four major routes of administration: sublingual, oral, inhaled, and topical.  

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.5.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.5.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”SUBLINGUAL CBD (OIL)” image=”https://www.sacredleafaustin.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Cinnamon1000.jpg” alt=”CBD VG Tincture” icon_placement=”left” _builder_version=”4.5.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]

The most popular way to take CBD is to put a few drops of CBD oil under the tongue.  This method has the advantages of good absorption, relatively fast effects, and easy administration. 

[/et_pb_blurb][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.5.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.5.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”ORAL CBD (CAPSULES & EDIBLES)” image=”https://www.sacredleafaustin.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/peach_rings_1024x1024.jpg” alt=”CBD Gummy Peach Rings” icon_placement=”left” _builder_version=”4.5.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Like most supplements, CBD can also be taken in the form of capsules.  Although this form is great for ease of use and tends to last the longest, it does suffer from slow absorption.  In addition, CBD can also be infused into edibles ranging from gummy bears to cookies and coffee.

[/et_pb_blurb][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.5.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.5.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”INHALED CBD (VAPING)” image=”https://www.sacredleafaustin.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Cartridges_250_-_Berry_Blast_1024x1024.jpg” icon_placement=”left” _builder_version=”4.5.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]

The third major method of taking CBD is to vaporize it with a vape pen  This route provides quick relief thanks to the rapid absorption of CBD to the lungs.  It lasts the shortest amount of time.  

[/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=”TOPICAL CBD (CREAMS)” image=”https://www.sacredleafaustin.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/337818_New_Labels_MckPainCream1000mg.jpg” icon_placement=”left” _builder_version=”4.9.11″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding=”0px|||||” sticky_enabled=”0″]

Finally, CBD can even be applied to your skin as part of a cream or other topical solution.  This method is ideal for dealing with localized concerns such as muscle pain and acne.

Why Sacred Leaf For Your Source Of CBD

[et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.4.6″][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.4.6″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.4.6″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.4.6″]

Why Sacred Leaf For Your Source Of CBD

 

If you have watched or read the news over the past few months, I am sure you have seen at least one article talking about CBD. Most of these articles say one of two things, either CBD is amazing, or you need to be careful where it comes from. CBD is considered a supplement and for this reason, it is not currently being regulated. This opens this product up to fake claims, bad products, and scams!

Sacred Leaf started for one main reason. To deliver the BEST CBD that we can to our customers. For this reason, we wanted to explain what sets us apart from the others. We pride ourselves in our amazing products and we want everyone to know about them!

Sacred Leaf is an organic company. Others many say they use organic ingredients, but we take it a step further. Organic to us means the whole process. Our fields are organic. We do not use pesticides, herbicides, or anything on our plants.

We are a seed to shelf company. Many companies out there will say USA made, which can mean many things included imported hemp oil that was BOTTLED in the USA. We do not want to fudge the facts. We OWN fields in the USA. We grow OUR patented hemp strains in those fields. We then extract in OUR lab, which is ALSO in the USA. We control the entire process from planting to bottling so we can make sure we know what is in the product. To take things one step further, we then batch test each bottle, label them, and share the labs on our website for everyone to see!

The most important part of any company is its employees and we know that. That is why we make sure to hire people with a passion for the product. We are not “just sales people”. Honestly, we would rather teach our customers how to find a good product and send them out into the world than to just get an easy sale. We want you to know not only what you are getting, but also what to expect when using it.

Sacred Leaf also recognizes that you are different than everyone else that walks in our store. We do not make one general recommendation for how to use CBD. My 90 pound grandma does not need the same dose as an NFL Linebacker who weighs 300 pounds. This is why our staff takes the time to learn about you. Your ailments may require you to take more and we can help point you in the right direction.

CBD isn’t new, it has been here longer than us. However, the usage of CBD for ailments is a newer attitude. One that is growing not only across the US, but across the world! Our goal is to share our knowledge and our product line to help make your lives a little less stressful, painful, or just plain better!

What Is The Difference Between CBD Isolate And Full-Spectrum Oil?

Learn About Cannabidiol [et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.4.3″][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.4.3″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.4.3″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.4.3″]

Learn About Cannabidiol

For those foraying into the world of CBD for the very first time, one of the first questions asked is the difference between CBD Isolate and Full Spectrum. It’s an important question to ask, as the answer provides consumers with the knowledge and ability to pick the CBD oil product that is right for them and their unique medical requirement.

So, what is the difference between the two, and why is it so important?

Full Spectrum CBD Oil
Full Spectrum CBD Oil When you see “Full Spectrum” on any labeling, it’s simply referring to CBD oil products that not only contain CBD, but also terpenes and other cannabinoids like CBG, CBN, and traces of THC. In most cases, the ratios of these added compounds were naturally occurring in the plant strain extracted for the CBD oil. However, they are sometimes added back into the product to raise its potency and effectiveness. With the presence of these different compounds, specifically the cannabinoids and the terpenes working together in harmony, you will feel the “Entourage Effect.” Something lacking in Isolate products, this is the ultimate factor separating the two.

However, they are sometimes added back into the product to raise its potency and effectiveness.

With the presence of these different compounds, specifically the cannabinoids and the terpenes working together in harmony, you will feel the “Entourage Effect.” Something lacking in Isolate products, this is the ultimate factor separating the two.

Pro Tip: If you are drug tested for your job or any other requirement in your life, tread lightly with Full Spectrum products. The Full Spectrum THC traces can still produce a positive drug test if not monitored properly. Even if a product claims to be 0% THC but is a Full Spectrum, you should run a test if you are concerned. It’s better to be safe than sorry.

CBD Isolate
Although most CBD Isolate is at the 99% mark, claiming to have zero THC, do be careful with the lower concentration products at around 95%. Some THC can slip in there – but, at such a tiny amount that it poses no risk on a drug test. This is why we use only pharmaceutical grade CBD isolate in our Zero THC products. Feel free to check our lab results page for the most up to date reports.

Pro Tip: If you encounter a CBD Isolate infused with terpenes, you will experience an enhanced effect that is otherwise not available with regular CBD Isolate.

Which One Should I Choose? Ultimately
Ultimately, when looking for the full benefits that cannabis has to offer, Full Spectrum products can be more effective, especially for cognitive diagnoses like ADHD. However, CBD Isolate has its place, too, commonly mixed with oil, coffee, or edibles to make a treat out of it. In any case, as long as your CBD is free from chemicals, toxins, pesticides, and is a high potency, you should notice significant results.

Before purchasing, it’s important to review your drug test requirements, future career plans, and the kind of remedy you seek from the blossoming CBD industry.

CBD vs THC

We’d like to clear something up. As the two main ingredients in the cannabis plant, it can be easy to confuse CBD and THC.

 But other than both being called cannabinoids, they are not the same thing. High levels of THC are commonly found in the popular plant but less so in the case of CBD. It makes sense, then, that THC can send you soaring on a high while CBD is reassuringly non-psychoactive. Disappointing to recreational users, perhaps, but brilliant news for the thousands of people looking to benefit from its proposed curative properties without enduring unwanted side effects.

NOT Psychotropic

CBD doesn’t contain the same psychoactive properties as THC meaning it can be ingested without the side effects usually associated with marijuana or cannabis. So it’s not hard to see why it’s fast becoming a popular addition to people’s daily and dietary supplements.

Americans Have Been Misled About Hemp Facts

The cannabis plant species can be grown as hemp (which has a weak amount of natural THC — the widely known psychoactive property) or marijuana (which over centuries has been selectively bred for higher and higher THC ). Hemp has been grown for over 5,000 years for its fiber – used for rope, twine, fabric and so on. Since at least 1500 BC, hemp has been widely used as medicine. Many scholars believe that the gall and vinegar, or myrrhed wine, offered to Jesus immediately after the crucifixion was, in all probability, a preparation of hemp. Queen Victoria used hemp extracts for menstrual cramps and anxiety. Her reign from 1837-1901 paralleled the explosive growth of hemp based medicines. From 1842 to 1900, cannabis made up half of all medicines sold. From 1850 to 1937, the U.S. Pharmacopeia listed cannabis as the primary medicine to treat more than 100 separate illnesses or diseases.

The Start of Hemp Prohibition

Unfortunately, Americans have been denied the healing effects of cannabis since Harry Anslinger, head of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics (1931-1962), pushed through legislation that had been crafted in secrecy for 2 years. The result was the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act that made hemp and marijuana illegal for any use. Historians believe Anslinger’s actions were at the behest of Randolph Hearst and Dupont petrochemicals. The machine had been invented to easily strip fiber from hemp. Therefore, a high-quality paper could now be made cheaper than using the traditional wood pulp. Randolph Hearst owned millions of acres of forest land that supplied paper for his newspaper empire. With this new invention, Hearst’s land would be worthless. Dupont was against hemp for a similar reason. Although more expensive to manufacture, hemp fiber was a far superior fiber to the new nylon fiber Dupont was producing. However this same invention would also make hemp fiber less costly to produce; therefore, lowering nylon fiber’s value. Both men would incur large financial losses due to this invention. What if they could stop this threat by outlawing Hemp? Anslinger and others utilized tabloid sensationalism (via Hearst’s newspapers) to convince members of Congress and the public of the dangers of hemp using the relatively new word marijuana (Spanish slang for cannabis). The American Medical Association (AMA) and the pharmaceutical industry testified against the Tax Act because cannabis was known to have so many medical uses with no observed side effects. Dr. William Woodward who was both a physician and an attorney for the AMA testified on their behalf. He said; in effect, that this law passed in ignorance, could possibly deny the world a wonderful medicine, especially now that the medical world was just beginning to discover which ingredients in cannabis were active. Woodward told the committee that the only reason the AMA had not come out sooner against this legislation was that they had not been made aware that the “killer weed” in question was one and the same as the cannabis used in America by the medical community with perfect safety to treat scores of illnesses for over 100 years. Dr. Woodward and the AMA were quickly denounced by Anslinger as well as the entire congressional committee, and curtly excused. At this point, cannabis – hemp and marijuana – was 100% illegal and NO further medical studies were done for nearly 30 years worldwide due to America’s demonization of this drug.

America Has Been Cheated Out of the Amazing Benefits of Hemp

Finally, in 1964, Professor Raphael Mechoulam and his colleague, Yechiel Gaoni, at the Weizman Institute of Science in Israel, isolated, analyzed and synthesized the main psychoactive ingredient in the cannabis plant as tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC. Ruth Gallily, a professor emerita of immunology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, has studied another main constituent of cannabis that is cannabidiol, or CBD. CBD is nonpsychoactive and is considered a powerful anti-inflammatory and anti-anxiety agent. Israeli researchers state CBD can be beneficial for a variety of illnesses and conditions; including but not limited to stress disorders, cancer, arthritis, migraines, PTSD, chronic pain, many neurological disorders, recovery after a heart attack and much more. Professor Mechoulam, now 84, stated in an interview that he has been urging producers over the years to grow cannabis with less THC and more CBD. (Nonmedical marijuana growers have little interest because CBD has NO psychoactive properties.) Taking Professor Mechoulam’s advice, a government-approved medical marijuana farm, Tikkun Olam, began working on a high CBD and low to no THC strain of cannabis. After years of careful breeding, they developed, Avidekel, a strain rich in CBD but with little to no THC. This breakthrough has allowed tens of thousands of Israelis to enjoy the health benefits of CBD.

Recognizing Hemp’s Potential

In 2003, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services filed a U.S. patent on CBD (#6630507) that covers CBD treatment for various neurodegenerative and inflammatory disorders. Because of the February 6, 2004, Federal Court Ruling Nos. 03-71366, 03-71693, every US citizen can legally use CBD (extracted from industrial hemp high in CBD without illegal amounts of THC). The American medical community had come to believe (or been “brainwashed”) in the years following the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act that cannabis had no use as a medicine. Only now have they come full circle on cannabis, realizing what their predecessors knew 100 years ago. CBD oil is simply the most exciting outcome of this current thinking regarding cannabis. Their belief is that CBD oil is not negative or illegal but that it should be embraced and used for its many health benefits. As a result of his investigative reporting, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN, completely changed his stance on medical marijuana, cannabis, and hemp. (Prior to his research, he thought people “needed” medical marijuana to justify getting “high”). Dr. Gupta featured CBD miracle stories in his special documentary series called “Weed” that first aired in 2013. The world was astonished by the people he profiled and the positive effects CBD oil has proven to have on human health. Dr. Mehmet Oz, known from “Oprah” and current host of his own TV show and ABC News Chief, Health and Medical Editor, Dr. Richard Besser have also been convinced of the beneficial properties of CBD.
