Broad vs Full Spectrum CBD: Which is better?
While both Full Spectrum and Broad Spectrum CBD formulations aim to maximize therapeutic impact, Full Spectrum CBD retains trace amounts of THC, which some studies suggest can cause an "entourage effect": a synergistic interaction among cannabinoids and phytonutrients that can amplify the therapeutic benefits. THC is a notable addition to this effect, so we typically recommend using Full Spectrum CBD unless you have any personal aversion to trace THC levels.
Broad Spectrum CBD is a practical choice for those looking to take advantage of CBD’s many potential benefits without the involvement of THC. R&R’s Broad Spectrum offerings still retain enough diversity of cannabinoids and phytonutrients that users can still experience the entourage effect, only without THC.*

How does CBD work on pain?
CBD's potential effectiveness in pain management is closely tied to its interaction with the endocannabinoid system, a complex cell-signaling system that plays a vital role in various physiological processes, including pain modulation and cortisol release.
CBD also has anti-inflammatory properties, largely credited to its impact on immune cell receptors, further adding to its potential as a pain relief agent. Inflammation is a significant cause of pain and irritation; by reducing inflammation, CBD can indirectly aid in pain reduction.*

Are there studies on CBD and pain?
While the science of CBD and pain is still emerging, there are studies that suggest the cannabinoid works on pain, including the following.
A 2018 review evaluated the effectiveness of cannabis, including both CBD and THC, in managing chronic pain. The researchers concluded that cannabis was an effective pain management option with only moderate side effects and found that cannabis may provide a safer alternative to opioid-based pain management.
CBD has also been shown to have anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties, and it may be useful for conditions such as arthritis or muscle strain that can cause stubborn pain.
