A lot of people would like to have access to THC vape juice and THC vape pens but it isn't an option where they live. In many places around the world, THC is still against the law. Being caught in possession of a THC vape pen could result in unpleasant and unwanted legal repercussions. If you live in a place where THC is still illegal, a great option is to try CBD (cannabidiol) vape pens.
With a CBD vape pen, you get all the benefits of cannabinoids minus the repercussions that come from possessing THC. Some vape pens are full spectrum can also contain trace amounts of THC. The maximum amount of THC allowed per bottle of any CBD products sold in the UK is 1mg. This means a bottle of full-spectrum CBD vape juice could contain as much as 1mg THC.

All CBD products should come with certified lab test results to help verify the authenticity of the product being purchased. If a CBD product you are considering purchasing doesn't have certified test results with it, don't buy it. You never know what's in it.
