What is CBD Oil OIL?
CBD oil (cannabidiol) is a product derived from cannabis, specifically the hemp plant. CBD is one of more than 100 cannabinoids identified in cannabis, but unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), it is non-psychoactive, meaning it does not produce the “high” associated with marijuana use.
Process of Making CBD Oils
- Hemp Cultivation: It all starts with the cultivation of industrial hemp plants, selected for their high CBD content and low THC content (less than 0.2% to comply with the law in many countries).
- CBD extraction: Once the plants have been harvested, the CBD is extracted.
- CO2 extraction: Uses supercritical carbon dioxide to extract cannabinoids from the plant. This method is efficient and safe, as it leaves no solvent residue.
- Ethanol Extraction: Ethanol is used to dissolve the desired compounds. The ethanol then evaporates, leaving behind a CBD-rich extract.
- Oil Extraction: A carrier oil (such as olive oil) is used to extract CBD. Although it is less efficient, it is a natural and safe method.
- Refining Process: CBD extract is refined to remove impurities and unwanted components such as waxes, chlorophyll, and other plant compounds.
- Carrier Oil Blend: Refined CBD extract is mixed with a carrier oil, such as fractionated coconut oil (MCT), olive oil, or hemp seed oil. This step is important to ensure the bioavailability of CBD. In our case we use MCT oil as a base.
Types of CBD Oils and Their Characteristics
In today’s market, there are several types of CBD oils and they differ in their content of cannabinoids and other cannabis-derived compounds. At Gorilla Grillz we only have full spectrum oils for people.
- Full Spectrum CBD Oil:
It contains all the cannabinoids present in the cannabis plant, including CBD, THC (in legal concentrations), CBC, CBN, CBG, as well as terpenes and flavonoids.
It is ideal for those who want to avoid any presence of THC as much as possible.
- Broad Spectrum CBD Oil:
Similar to full-spectrum oil, but without THC. It contains CBD along with other cannabinoids and terpenes.
It offers many of the benefits of the full spectrum without the presence of THC, thus avoiding any concerns about psychoactive effects. Recommended for those who want to avoid THC but want to benefit from the entourage effect.

- CBD Isolate (CBD Isolate):
It contains only pure CBD, with no other cannabinoids, terpenes, or flavonoids.
It is the purest form of CBD (99% or more), with no taste or smell. It has no entourage effect and is ideal for those who need precise doses of pure CBD or have sensitivity to other cannabinoids.
Composition of CBD Oils
- Cannabinoids:
- CBD (Cannabidiol): The main component, known for its properties.
- Other Cannabinoids: In full-spectrum oils, small amounts of other cannabinoids such as CBG (cannabigerol), CBN (cannabinol), and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) can be found, always at legal levels (<0.3%).
- Terpenes: Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in hemp and other plants. The most common terpenes in CBD oils include:
- Myrcene: Relaxing and anti-inflammatory.
- Limonene: Mood booster and anxiolytic.
- Pinene: Anti-inflammatory and improves memory.
- Carrier Oil: This is the medium in which the CBD extract is diluted to facilitate its dosage and absorption. The most common carrier oils are:
- MCT oil: Extracted from coconut, it is popular for its rapid absorption.
- Olive Oil: Rich in antioxidants and beneficial for cardiovascular health.
- Hemp Seed Oil: Rich in essential fatty acids.

Topical Use of CBD Oils on the Skin
Topical use of CBD oils involves applying the product directly to the skin. This form is recommended to treat localized skin conditions, muscle pain, inflammation, and joint problems. Topical CBD products include creams, balms, oils, and lotions. Compared to oral use, topical products offer quick, localized relief with less risk of side effects.
Advantages
- By applying CBD directly to the skin, it can be specifically targeted at the affected area, providing localized relief without affecting the entire body.
- CBD is absorbed through the skin and acts on local cannabinoid receptors in the endocannabinoid system, which can result in faster, more targeted relief.
- As it does not pass through the digestive system or liver, the risk of side effects is lower compared to oral consumption.
Disadvantages
- Topical CBD products may not be helpful for conditions that require systemic treatment.
- Effectiveness can vary depending on skin type, application location, and product formulation.
- The effects may be short-lived and may require frequent applications.

- CBD can reduce saliva production, leading to a dry mouthfeel.
- Some people may experience tiredness or drowsiness, especially with higher doses of CBD.
- CBD can affect appetite, reducing the desire to eat in some people.

Precautions While Using CBD Oils

- The quality of CBD can vary significantly between different products, and third-party analyses ensure the purity and concentration of CBD.

- CBD can interact with medications such as blood thinners, antiepileptics, and antidepressants, among others.
- Keep track of any side effects you experience, such as dizziness, dry mouth, fatigue or changes in appetite.
