The hemp cannabis plant in and of itself is valuable for many purposes. It has been providing powerful and positive experiences for humans for centuries. But its rock-star component, CBD, can be tough to isolate. CBD has many versatile uses, but to get a usable concentration of it, you have to extract, isolate, distill, or infuse it. (Well, not you personally, necessarily, but someone does.)

Extraction is the process of separating the plant matter from the other chemical parts. You can essentially consume the plant in its whole form and get good results for many conditions, and in some scenarios, that’s the ideal method of consumption. However, many Americans’ interactions with cannabis center on byproducts. I want to familiarize you with different forms of CBD you may encounter more readily, so in this chapter, I explore the different methods of extracting CBD.
