Has the product been tested by a Third-Party?
Third-Party testing is crucial to ensuring you get a quality product. If the company you’re purchasing from doesn’t provide this on their website, consider this to be a major red flag.
How much THC is in my CBD product?
By law, there should be no more than 0.3% THC in your CBD product. This is considered to be a trace amount.
What other ingredients are in my CBD product?
Full-spectrum CBD oil contains other essential oils and compounds to make the CBD more effective and experience more pleasurable. Don’t hesitate to Google some of the ingredients you find if you are unsure about what is on the bottle.
Where did the CBD come from?
Questioning the original source of the supply is wise. To do this, browse the businesses website and look for the supplier details. A quick google search will help you determine if they are ethical, professional and produce quality products.
What is the CBD Dosage?
This information is typically contained in the Certificate of Analysis (COA) which is on the third-party lab test results. There are different strengths in CBD products so it’s important to understand what you’re taking and how frequently.
If you’re unsure, talk to your doctor.
Is my CBD Isolate or Full-Spectrum?
CBD Isolate is the purest form of CBD, whilst Full-spectrum CBD contains other elements and compounds.
Healthline explain the difference well
“Full-spectrum CBD products contain small amounts of other cannabinoids, like THC, as well as flavonoids and terpenes, which are beneficial compounds that provide unique scents and flavors.
CBD isolate products go through further refining, so they only contain CBD”
