Over the past couple of years CBD has skyrocketed in popularity, with more and more people turning to CBD as a natural pain reliever and overall wellness supplement. This increase in popularity has led to numerous brands and products entering the space.

Unfortunately, not all CBD is created equal so consumers must proceed with caution when purchasing CBD products. Here are our top 10 tips to purchasing CBD products online.

1) Source of Hemp: We always encourage consumers to look where the hemp being used in the finished products is grown. We urge customers to use only hemp grown in the USA. Oftentimes hemp grown overseas is grown on land that has been contaminated with heavy metals and pesticides. These do not belong anywhere near your CBD products.

2) Third Party Testing: All CBD Isolate products at this time in the industry should have third party laboratory test which can prove both potency and purity. These third party laboratory tests should be easily accessible for consumers to view publicly. If your CBD products do not have test results, you should dump them and go elsewhere.

3) Product Types: Before purchasing any CBD product you first must figure out what you want to get out of CBD. If you are planning to use CBD for external issues we would highly recommend a CBD topical such as a CBD Balm Salve or CBD Massage Oil. If you are planning to use CBD to help with internal issues related to anxiety, stress and such we would recommend going with a consumable product such as CBD edibles, CBD oil tinctures or CBD soft gels.

4) THC Levels: Your third party tests results should show both CBD potency and THC potency. In order to comply with federal guidelines the THC content may not exceed 0.3% by weight. It is also important to note that a CBD Near Me which has traces of THC can still cause a failed drug test. If you are looking for a CBD product which can be used without failing a drug test, we would encourage you to go with an option that is either Broad Spectrum or Isolate, which should have no traces of THC.

5) Customer Service: We encourage you to go with brands that are known to have great customer service and respond in a timely manner. The CBD industry is too competitive to settle so if you cannot reach a customer service representative that is knowledgeable and polite, go elsewhere.

6) Ingredients: Ingredients go above and beyond just the Delta 8 Chocolate used. You should make sure the ingredients used in your CBD products are natural and beneficial for your health as well. We would encourage you to stay away from CBD oil with dyes and other harmful ingredients.
