1. Choosing the Right CBD Product for You

 

First and foremost, you will want to decide what kind of product you are looking for and think about the results you are trying to achieve. Ask yourself what is most important to you out of these choices:

  • Taste
  • Ease of use/convenience
  • Alleviating symptoms of specific health conditions

Decide what kind of CBD product you are looking for and think about the results you are trying to achieve.

1.1 Taste

 

If the taste is high on your list of importance, then you are going to be looking at either flavored CBD tinctures and oils, edibles, or liposomal products. Normal, unflavored cannabidiol products usually have a distinct earthy or grassy flavor that is hard for some to stomach. 

Choosing flavored or liposomal products can make a huge difference when it comes to the flavor of the product that you plan on ingesting orally, and of course, you have the option of finding edibles, too. However, tinctures or liposomal oils will be more cost-effective because you get much more for what you are buying. (Click to tweet)

We recommend checking out our flavored products, such as the Pure Hemp CBD Tincture in Cinnamint. This tincture is packed with 500mg of full-spectrum, CO2-extracted cannabidiol from organically grown hemp plants and has a refreshing and inviting cinnamon and mint taste.

Also to consider:

If you are looking for something that packs a bigger punch when it comes to CBD, try our Liposomal ProductsLiposomal CBD is a form of cannabidiol oil with an increased absorption rate compared to other conventional application styles.

2. Factors to Consider When Choosing a CBD Company

 

We care about this industry, so we want to make sure you understand what to look for and what to avoid when it comes to choosing a reliable company to purchase your CBD from. 

To ensure you are getting the highest-quality, safest products for your money, you have to think about a few different factors. Let’s dive right in. 

 

2.1 Go for Organic CBD

 

This is an important word you are going to want to look for when buying CBD products

Buying organic CBD can give you peace of mind knowing that there are zero risks of consuming trace compounds such as pesticides, herbicides, or heavy metals. You’ll also avoid experiencing allergic reactions related to these trace compounds. (Click to tweet)

This allows you to make the most of cannabidiol’s many beneficial, health-boosting properties. Besides being a higher-quality product, choosing organic CBD (like ours) also has a positive environmental impact. Organically grown plants are, without a doubt, better for the environment and more sustainable.

With organic CBD you have zero risks of consuming pesticides, herbicides, or heavy metals.

 

2.2 Avoid CBD Products That Use “Heat Extraction” Methods

 

Even some companies that use quality hemp will cut corners when it comes to their extraction process. Toxic solvents such as hexane, propane, or butane tend to be used in heat extraction methods, and you will want to avoid this. 

Heat extraction methods are the easiest way to get CBD out from the plant, but in addition to using poisonous solvents, they deplete nutrients, leaving you with a lower-quality product. Easier isn’t always better, especially in this case. 

Instead, look for products that use the CO2 extraction method. The best companies use this method. It’s not the easiest, but it produces the best results.

This method takes a gentle approach that maintains purity throughout the whole process. CO2 extraction is ultimately superior to the other methods because the CBD product ends up purer, and they can control the concentration of cannabinoids much more accurately. 

Look for CBD products that use the CO2 extraction method.

 

2.3 Stay Away from Isolates 

 

While CBD isolates may have an appealing name and make you feel like you are getting the purest form of cannabidiol, keep in mind there is a significant disadvantage of isolating CBD from other compounds found in the hemp plant.

Research shows that the combination of cannabinoids and terpenes in full-spectrum and broad-spectrum CBD generates something called the “entourage effect.” So isolates aren’t as great as manufacturers make them seem.

You might be wondering:

What is the entourage effect? It is a synergistic interaction that boosts each compound’s effects. Since different cannabinoids and other hemp-derived substances such as terpenes work together, choosing full-spectrum products appears to be more effective compared to taking isolated CBD products.

RELATED: What Does "Full-Spectrum CBD" Mean?

 

2.4 Focus on Milligrams Per Dose

 

Some companies focus on the percentage of CBD in their product rather than the number of milligrams per dose.

Understanding how many milligrams of CBD you’ll be consuming per dose is a much better approach. It’s easier for a consumer to understand, and it will help you chose your dosages more conveniently and keep track of what amount works best for you.

When you buy a bottle of oil that only has information regarding the total percentage of CBD found in the entire bottle, it’s hard to grasp just how much cannabidiol you happen to be ingesting with each dose and makes it a bit more difficult when it comes to keeping your dosages consistent.

It’s also good to note that a higher percentage of lower-quality CBD oil will be less effective than a lower percentage of higher-quality CBD oil. For example, a 10% CBD extract that has gone through the CO2 extraction method and avoided all heat maintains its full cannabinoid and terpene profile, which makes it a much better option than a 50% CBD extract that has undergone a heat extraction method and has lost much—if not all—of its terpenes.

A higher percentage of lower quality CBD oil will be less effective than a lower percentage of higher-quality CBD oil.

2.5 Look for Lab Results

 

When choosing a company, make sure they are open about disclosing their lab results with their consumers. Each product should be traceable to the batch in which it was produced, and testing results should be publicly available. This will help you avoid contaminants such as heavy metals getting into the product that you are buying.

As a consumer, it’s essential to review lab results when shopping for CBD products. They are probably the most valuable tool you have when deciding which products are your best option and which products shouldn’t be considered at all. (Click to tweet)

Verifying the contents of the product you are buying via these reports can make all the difference when it comes to finding something pure, potent, and safe instead of buying something that contains no CBD—or worse, something that could potentially harm you. 

As a consumer, it’s essential to review lab results when shopping for CBD products.

 

2.6 Find a Company That Cares

 

Suppose you check into the “about us” section for whatever companies you are considering. In that case, you can usually tell which ones put more effort into educating and sharing valuable, useful information about their company and products with their consumers. This is always a good thing. 

A legitimate CBD company will always be more than happy to provide you with all the information you need and will gladly help assist you when it comes to questions, concerns, and being transparent about which products would be best for you.

If you are new to taking cannabidiol and they try to convince you to purchase their most expensive and highest potency CBD oil, they are most likely just trying to make money off of you. Choose companies that care about your specific needs and who will go out of their way to help you pick out something that is right for you if you’re unsure of what product(s) to purchase. 

It’s also great to find a company that offers a 100% money-back guarantee. This is a great sign that they want their customers to be happy and satisfied with their products over anything else.

 

2.7 Search for Clearly Labeled Products

 

Clearly labeled packaging will give cannabidiol users valuable information regarding the product they are buying and consuming. It can be easy for consumers to glance at a label quickly, especially when some of them are under the impression that all CBD products are the same. (Click to tweet)

Does the company use MCT or propylene glycol in their CBD oils? Is there 1500mg or 500mg of cannabidiol per dose in the bottle of oil you are purchasing? Knowing the strength of the product as well as any additional ingredients is important information. 

Choosing CBD that is clearly labeled helps you make informed decisions about the products you buy and will help you find something that works best for your needs. 

Feel confident knowing you’re buying CBD from a company you can trust

 

3. Choose the Best CBD and Enhance Your Health

 

These seven pointers on what to look for and what to avoid when choosing a CBD company should help you when it comes time to make a purchase.

Searching through countless CBD manufacturers can be daunting and tiring, but luckily, you can use some simple steps for reference when it comes to separating the bad from the good. It may take some time and research, but by doing so, you will be sure to find the most potent, pure, effective, and safe CBD products on the market. Do not gamble with your health by buying certain cannabidiol products for the sake of a bargain. 

Keep in mind:

Companies like SOL*CBD understand that customers need an effective way to eliminate inferior, unregulated, and unsafe products. Sure, you may come across a product that claims it’s a popular bestseller, but it also needs to provide you with peace of mind knowing exactly what you are buying, where it came from, and what is inside that bottle.
