CBD Essentials
Cannabinoids are powerful compounds produced by cannabis plants, known for their ability to interact with your body’s endocannabinoid system, promoting internal balance. While CBD is the most recognized, over 100 different cannabinoids have been identified, each offering its own potential benefits. At Extract Labs, we embrace this diversity to help you achieve your wellness goals. Explore our range of products, which feature a variety of cannabinoids like CBD, CBG, CBC, CBN, Delta 8, Delta 9 and THCV, available in different forms to meet your unique needs.
Terpenes are the natural compounds that give plants their distinct aromas—like the fresh scent of pine or the calming fragrance of lavender. In cannabis, over 100 different terpenes have been identified, and they play a key role in differentiating the aroma and effects of each strain. Some terpenes promote relaxation and have a calming effect, while others offer an uplifting, motivating experience. At Extract Labs, we use terpene profiles in our vape and concentrate products, ensuring you get the specific effects you need to enhance your experience.
At Extract Labs, our CBD products are divided into three main categories: full spectrum, broad spectrum, and isolates. It is important to understand the difference as each allows you to tailor the experience to your own specific need.
Full Spectrum
Full spectrum CBD is all about embracing the full power of hemp. These products contain a wide range of cannabinoids, terpenes, and a small amount of THC (<0.3%), working together to create a comprehensive hemp experience. Full spectrum is perfect for those who want to enjoy the complete profile of hemp’s natural compounds.

Broad Spectrum
Broad spectrum CBD captures the essence of the hemp plant by including multiple cannabinoids and terpenes, but with zero THC. This option offers a balanced approach, providing the benefits of a broad cannabinoid profile while avoiding THC. Broad spectrum products are a great choice for anyone who wants to explore the richness of hemp without any THC.

Isolates
CBD isolates are the purest form of CBD, consisting of 99% pure cannabinoids like CBD, CBG, or CBN. Free from THC and other plant compounds, isolates are versatile and easy to use, offering a straightforward way to incorporate specific cannabinoids into your wellness routine. Isolates are ideal for those who value simplicity and precision in their CBD products.

Bioavailability refers to how efficiently and quickly an active ingredient like CBD is absorbed into your bloodstream. This concept is crucial because it determines how much of the CBD you take actually ends up in your system, influencing the effects you feel.
Different CBD products have varying bioavailability levels:
- Inhalation (Vaping): With a bioavailability of 34%–56%, inhalation offers the most efficient absorption. The lungs allow CBD to enter the bloodstream quickly, leading to faster effects, though they may be shorter-lasting.
- Sublingual (Under the Tongue) Tinctures: Holding a tincture under your tongue provides a bioavailability of 10%–20%. This method bypasses digestion, allowing for quicker absorption compared to swallowing.
- Oral Ingestion (Gummies): When you consume CBD orally, bioavailability drops to 6%–19%. Much of the CBD is lost during digestion, but this method provides longer-lasting effects.
- Topical Application (Creams, Balms): Topical CBD products have the lowest bioavailability, typically less than 5%. However, they are ideal for targeting specific areas, delivering CBD directly where it’s needed without entering the bloodstream.
Once absorbed, cannabinoids interact with the endocannabinoid system—a signaling network in your body and brain involved in regulating various functions, including mood, discomfort, and hunger. Understanding bioavailability helps you choose the right product and dosage to ensure your CBD is effectively supporting this vital system.
Navigating drug tests while using CBD can be tricky, and unfortunately, there isn’t a straightforward answer. Although our products are crafted with care and precision, we cannot guarantee that you’ll pass a drug test after using them. If you're concerned about this, you might want to consider CBD isolates or broad spectrum formulas, which are specifically designed to minimize or eliminate THC. However, it's important to note that even these products could contain trace amounts of THC, which might lead to a positive or false-positive test result.
If passing a drug test is a major concern, we advise proceeding with caution and carefully considering your options. While we strive to provide the highest quality products, we cannot be held responsible for any drug test results, and we encourage caution if testing is a critical issue for you.
CBD is known for being gentle on most users, but it’s possible to experience some mild side effects like drowsiness, dry mouth, or changes in appetite. These effects are generally temporary and may lessen as your body adapts to the product. To minimize any potential side effects, start with a low dose and adjust as needed. If you’re taking other medications or have health conditions, it’s advisable to consult with your doctor to ensure CBD is a good fit for you.
Our Products
We start with the best—organic, American-grown hemp. Our products are infused with CO2-extracted oils, ensuring you receive the cleanest, most potent ingredients possible.

CBD softgels provide a convenient and tasteless option for those who prefer a more traditional method of ingestion. Each softgel contains a pre-measured dose, making it easy to incorporate into your daily routine without any guesswork. Softgels are perfect for individuals who want a consistent dose of CBD and prefer the simplicity of taking a capsule, especially if they find the natural flavor of CBD oil unappealing.

CBD oils offer versatility and quick absorption, making them a popular choice for many users. When taken sublingually (under the tongue), the oil is absorbed directly into the bloodstream, allowing for faster effects. Alternatively, you can mix CBD oil into your favorite foods or beverages for a more discreet and enjoyable experience. Oils are ideal for those who appreciate flexibility in their CBD routine and prefer the ability to adjust their dosage as needed.
Concentrates are potent products containing high levels of specific cannabinoids, offering an intensified experience. These powerful extracts are typically consumed through vaporization or dabbing, providing a rapid onset of effects. Concentrates are an ideal choice for those seeking quick relief or a more robust experience compared to other cannabinoid products. At Extract Labs, our terpene-infused Crumble is made from broad-spectrum oil and delivers elevated effects synonymous with sativa or indica experiences, tailored to meet your specific needs and preferences. Looking for a more convenient option? Explore our vape products for a quick and easy way to enjoy elevated effects similar to Crumble.

Made with pure, organic ingredients and American-grown hemp, our topicals are not only gentle on your skin but are also Leaping Bunny certified, ensuring they meet the highest standards for cruelty-free products. Convenient for on-the-go application, these topicals offer a reliable, natural solution for maintaining skin health and alleviating discomfort, making them an essential part of any daily routine.
Yes, CBD oils can be easily incorporated into your favorite foods and drinks, offering a discreet and enjoyable way to consume CBD. Whether you're adding a few drops to your morning coffee, blending it into a smoothie, or mixing it into a salad dressing, CBD oils are a versatile option for those who prefer not to take it sublingually. Just keep in mind that mixing CBD oil with food or drinks may slightly delay the onset of effects compared to taking it under the tongue. For optimal absorption, it's best to combine CBD oil with fats or oils, as it is fat-soluble and binds more effectively to these substances.
To ensure the longevity and potency of your CBD products, proper storage is key. Keep your CBD oils, tinctures, and other products in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and heat. There's no need to store them in the fridge or freezer—simply ensure they're kept at a stable, moderate temperature. Exposure to light and warmth can degrade the cannabinoids, reducing the product's effectiveness over time. Additionally, seal the products tightly after each use to prevent air exposure, which can also impact quality. By following these storage tips, you can maximize the shelf life of your CBD products, ensuring they remain fresh and effective for as long as possible.
Yes, quality and transparency are at the heart of what we do. Every Extract Labs product is thoroughly tested to ensure it meets our high standards, each batch will have a number corresponding to our online database allowing you to view the certificate of analysis anytime. Additionally, COAs for oils, topicals, gummies, and softgels include comprehensive microbial and mycotoxin testing to guarantee their purity and safety.
