The effectiveness of the CBD treatment greatly depends of the quality of the product. You know that is not acceptable to buy medicine at a corner store if you are looking for quality products. That means the product have therapeutic potential. Especially if we are talking about CBD with/ without tight regulations. This lack of regulations opens the door for our mistakes.

Buying products that are not safe or effective is the most common reason for lack of therapeutic results from CBD. In order to make educated decision and choose high quality CBD oil this is what you have to watch for.

Therapeutic grade quality CBD should be:

  1. Organically grown.
  2. Third-party laboratory tested.
  3. Have a specific amount of CBD in the product.
  4. Be free of mold bacteria and fungus. 

Therefore, when you are choosing a product make sure that you are asking about Certificate of Analysis and product is actually what it label claim  to be. 

Some of the red flags are:

  1. More than 0.3% of THC.
  2. Less than advertise CBD (pay attention on milligrams of CBD per serving).
  3. A laboratory that does third-party testing reputation should be good.
  4. Missing some of the cannabinoids (CBD has the greatest results when is taken in a natural form, because there are more than 100 compounds in the plant that are working synergistically to boost therapeutic experience).

Tying to save a few dollars with a cheaper product will most likely compromise quality and therapeutic effect of the CBD. It is always better safe than sorry.
