Since 1 October 2024, CBD flowers and hash for smoking, like CBD e-liquids and vapes, fall under the Federal Tobacco Products Act, with or without nicotine. Minimum age, notification, warnings, tax, advertising, cantonal rules: here is what the Act requires, and what it does not change. On this page Which CBD products are covered The […]
Online, CBD oils are still presented as food supplements. In Switzerland, that status does not exist for them: no hemp extract and no cannabinoid has received the authorisation needed to be sold as food. Here is why, and which categories a CBD oil can actually belong to. On this page CBD, a “novel food” without […]
In Switzerland, everyone knows the figure: below 1% THC, hemp is not a narcotic. But 1% of what, measured on what, and proven how? The rule covers the plant, the product and even the material the product is made from. It speaks of “total” THC and of “average” content. Here is exactly what the limit […]
Vegetable oil makes up most of the volume of a CBD oil. It dissolves the hemp extract, sets the appearance and fluidity of the product, and determines how it keeps once the bottle is open. Our range relies on three carriers: coconut MCT, hemp seed oil and olive oil. Here is what each one actually […]
On a CBD oil, the percentage tells you how much CBD each millilitre of oil contains. It says nothing about the total amount in the bottle: that comes from the volume. And depending on the reference system used, the same “20%” does not mean quite the same thing. Here is how to read a label […]
Choosing a CBD oil comes down to three measurable elements: the concentration, expressed as a percentage and convertible into milligrams per drop; the vegetable oil that carries the extract; and the spectrum of cannabinoids that the extract has retained. This page covers the first two in detail and states which concentrate goes into each of […]
You may have already noticed that your CBD oil changes slightly in colour or smell after a few months sitting in a cupboard. That’s no coincidence. The molecules found in a cannabis extract are alive, in the chemical sense of the word: they evolve over time, and the conditions in which they are stored play […]
Two oils both show 20% CBD. Are they the same? Almost never. The percentage measures a single molecule; everything else, the other cannabinoids, their acidic or neutral form, the terpenes, depends on the plant and on how the extract was heated. Here is what really shapes the profile of an extract, and how to read […]
Introduction Cannabidiol is today one of the most studied plant molecules in the world. In 2026, the PubMed database already lists more than a thousand scientific publications mentioning cannabidiol, across all types of work: fundamental research, cell model studies, clinical trials, review articles, and regulatory assessments. This volume is impressive. Yet it conceals a reality […]
In a study by the University of Geneva (UNIGE) and the Swiss Centre for Applied Human Toxicology (SCAHT), 47 young men who used cannabis had higher testosterone than 47 controls, by about 23% according to UNIGE. Two other androgens made by the testicles were also higher, but not those from the adrenal glands. This is […]
