Ah, yet another company that has a process to create CBD from the terpenes found in orange peels. This isn't the isolation of CBD, as you would from hemp, but the creation of CBD from precursors using chemistry. I don't know if this is usually the labroots style, but this is a press release disguised as an article.
Flagged, because the author clearly has no idea what they're talking about:
> Until now, the company has not tested the effectiveness of orange peel CBD against CBD derived from hemp. Although they said they might look into it soon, whether or not their version of CBD is effective is thus still open for debate.
> Until now, the company has not tested the effectiveness of orange peel CBD against CBD derived from hemp. Although they said they might look into it soon, whether or not their version of CBD is effective is thus still open for debate.
The next paragraph however:
> Early studies have found that other alternatives for CBD are just as effective as more effective than regular CBD. A study conducted by Peak Health on its hops-derived CBD product, ImmunAG, found that it was more effective at reducing calcification in the heart than cannabis-derived CBD at 'every concentration'.

I think there was a bit more you might have missed.
I can't find it now, but I'm pretty sure a very early version of The Onion had an article that predicted this for THC.
If you want CBD get a dry herb vaporizer and the devils lettuce and set it to the temperature for the terpines you want.
I've been reading lately that CBD alone doesn't do much, maybe they can also synthesize some THC out of the peels?
Out of the peels? Perhaps. It depends on the kinds of chemicals that are in there. The question is, why bother?
This quora thread goes over some of the reasons why synthesizing THC is a fairly pointless exercise (barring cetain highly specific conditions such as unavailability of hemp etc).
