The most popular CBD Products
Introduction: Active ingredients and therapeutic benefits
Admittedly, there are still too few clinical studies on the effects of cannabidiol on health to prove the medicinal efficacy of the product.
However, testimonials about its benefits are very frequent, and this, on various pathologies!
How does it work?
We now know that the Cannabis plant contains many active ingredients including terpenes and cannabinoids. We also know that broad-spectrum CBD oil is rich in vitamins and nutrients.
Indeed, hemp seed oil is rich in omega 3 and 6. Hemp seeds, for their part, are rich in vitamins B and E.
These vitamins, basic nutritional elements, are important for the body. They are known to strengthen the immune system, multiply cells, and produce red blood cells. They are also renowned for their antioxidant effect (the famous vitamin E!) and contribute to cell renewal, skin healing, etc.
Thus, hemp-based products attract for their health benefits (anti-anxiety, neuroprotective, acne reduction, fight against eczema...). We have published an article on the link between CBD and health. Check it out to learn more.
Let's now study the most popular CBD products from the selected sites.
CBD Oils: La Ferme du CBD vs Canebiera
La Ferme du CBD offers a complete range of full spectrum and broad spectrum CBD oil. Different concentrations are sold online, available in 10ml bottles with droppers.
The manufacturing location of these oils is not clearly specified on the site. As the company is domiciled in Switzerland, it is possible that the hemp oils are manufactured in Switzerland, from plants grown in that country.
The choice is varied. In addition to regular hemp oils, there are fancy oils such as scented oils or even chicken-flavored pet oils (why not!). Reviews are rather positive, especially concerning the effectiveness of the products (4.6 rating on Trustpilot).
Firstly, Canebiera's CBD oils come from French organic farming.
The oils offered are made from organic hemp flower plants exclusively grown without pesticides or chemicals, in the south of France.
The flowers used for oil production are harvested and trimmed manually (a real quality bonus, we will discuss this in the last chapter).
Secondly, Canebiera uses supercritical CO2 extraction to make its CBD oil.
Supercritical CO2 extraction is used to extract cannabinoids (like CBD) and terpenes from hemp flowers without damaging their molecular structure.
The oils are sold in 10ml bottles with droppers. The 20% hemp oil is the richest cannabidiol oil offered on the site. NB: Canebiera has removed its 30% CBD oil to comply with French legislation.
As a reminder, the concentration or dosage of CBD depends on your needs (and your weight). Choose the oil according to your symptoms to fully benefit from the effects of CBD.
Thirdly, the CBD oils offered are broad-spectrum oils (or Broad Spectrum), meaning they are THC-free.
Broad-spectrum oil contains several cannabinoids as well as a wide variety of terpenes naturally present in the flowers.
Without perfume or THC, Canebiera oil is used by customers for massage for sports, for example, or sublingually for anti-anxiety, relaxation, and pain-relief effects.
In a previous article, we discussed the taste of oil. Canebiera's hemp oils do not have a bitter taste because they are made exclusively from flowers.*
Highly appreciated by users, Canebiera scores 4.8 on Trustpilot.
E-liquid and CBD distillates
A CBD e-liquid is a preparation generally composed of CBD isolate (isolated form of CBD) and propylene glycol. It may also contain vegetable glycerin and, most often, synthetic or natural flavors.
CBD distillate, on the other hand, is a hemp concentrate with a high CBD content.
As you will have understood, distillate is 100% natural, unlike e-liquid.
From there, the comparison will be quick: La Ferme du CBD offers e-liquids (several flavors); Canebiera only offers distillate. Nature first and foremost!
It is important to note, however, that you will find different flavors of distillate on the Canebiera website. The nuance is that the terpenes used flavor the distillate.
Find the aromas and effects of each distillate in the "composition" tab.
An update on CBD Flowers - Canebiera and La Ferme du CBD
La Ferme du CBD offers 45 products on its site compared to 16 for Canebiera.
La Ferme has a larger number of flowers because several types of hemp flower cultivation are offered.
- Indoor (i.e., in dark rooms with artificial light),
- Outdoor (outside, subject to insects and bad weather),
- GreenHouse (under greenhouses, thus benefiting from the benefits of the earth and light while being protected).
The origin and provenance of the flowers are difficult to find on the site. We can read that the flowers come from organic hemp, but no data on the cultivation location of the plants. CBD levels sometimes reach strangely high scores. In addition to flowers, they market CBD resin.
Canebiera, for its part, only offers hemp flowers.
From Canebiera's organic farms and grown in greenhouses (GreenHouse), they are the result of several years of research. The flowers thus obtained have a naturally high CBD content, thanks to cross-breeding and hybridization of Cannabis plants.
Moreover, a significant part of Canebiera's strength is that all work is done on cuttings. This ensures the homogeneity of the products by maintaining the same molecular structure of the plant.
Today, Canebiera is proud to offer flowers with a CBD content greater than 16% obtained naturally. This means that no terpenes are added after harvest. It is interesting to note, here again, that the product offered is pure, natural, and 100% made in France.
We recommend consuming hemp flowers by vaporizing, infusing, or cooking them.
Canebiera's ecological commitment
Canebiera's Ecological Commitment to CBD Production
Canebiera is first and foremost a team of experienced farmers and passionate experts. They act with deep respect for the plant and the land.
Located near Aix-en-Provence, Canebiera is one of the first hemp producers in France (2018). All its products are 100% Made in France.
You can see on the website that Canebiera's farm has obtained "Organic Agriculture" certification through ECOCERT, an independent and recognized environmental certification body.
By choosing organic farming, Canebiera ensures the preservation of the many active components present in CBD. Canebiera thus demonstrates its commitment to sustainability and the quality of its CBD products.
The extraction methods used also reflect this commitment.
An Environmentally Friendly Extraction Method
As mentioned earlier when discussing oils, hemp oil is obtained using supercritical CO2 extraction.
This technique preserves molecules, thereby maintaining all the benefits of cannabidiol while minimizing environmental impact.
In short, this method uses carbon dioxide (CO2) in a special state called "supercritical" to extract compounds from hemp. Supercritical CO2 is a powerful solvent that penetrates deeply into plant tissues and allows for the extraction of cannabinoids and terpenes. Then, the CO2 is evaporated, leaving behind a hemp extract that must then be cleaned and purified to obtain the final THC-free product.
The supercritical CO2 extraction method is the cleanest there is. Thus, Canebiera markets high-quality CBD products that meet consumer expectations on two levels!
- An environmentally friendly approach,
- Products made from flowers (not biomass**) grown in France.
Canebiera's Unique Offer
Expertise
Firstly, the hemp flowers resulting from years of research have a naturally high cannabidiol content.
Secondly, the flowers are worked from cuttings to obtain homogeneous products. Finally, the flowers are harvested and trimmed by hand, for several reasons:
- Reduced risk of contamination
- Maintenance of the aesthetic and visual appearance of the flower
- Preservation of cannabinoids and terpenes. Flowers are selected at optimal maturity, whereas machines risk damaging the trichomes (where important compounds such as terpenes and cannabinoids are contained).
A 100% Made in France offer
Long live the Aix-en-Provence sun! It is also thanks to it that hemp plants have very high terpene levels.
With its plants grown and manufactured in France, Canebiera offers 100% French products and supports the local economy.

Canebiera emphasizes the complete transparency of all products: origin, manufacturing, composition, and laboratory tests.

* Some competitor oils are made from biomass. These are the green parts of the plant that give these oils their bitter taste.
**Biomass = the entire plant including stems, flowers, and leaves.
