Why is third-party lab testing important?

Introduction

Third-party lab testing has become increasingly important for consumers of full spectrum CBD products, as it provides transparency and ensures the quality and safety of the products. In this blog post, we will discuss why third-party lab testing is important for consumers taking full spectrum CBD products

 

WHAT IS FULL-SPECTRUM CBD?

Full spectrum CBD products are derived from the hemp plant and contain a variety of compounds, including CBD, THC (up to 0.3%), terpenes, flavonoids, and other cannabinoids. These compounds work together synergistically, creating what is known as the “entourage effect,” which is believed to enhance the supportive benefits of CBD. So why is third-party lab testing important for full spectrum CBD products?

We believe that cannabis is the world's most important natural remedy. That's why our entire selection of USDA organic CBD products include a full spectrum of minor cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids, and up to 2mg of THC - the way nature intended.

ENSURE ACCURACY OF CBD CONTENT

Third-party lab testing ensures that the CBD content listed on the product label is accurate, which is especially important for ingestible products like full spectrum CBD oil for sale and CBD softgels. This is important because CBD is the main active ingredient in these products, and consumers need to know exactly how much CBD they are consuming. Without third-party lab testing, there is a risk of products being mislabeled, which can result in consumers either not receiving enough CBD to experience the intended benefits or taking too much and experiencing adverse effects.

You also want to make sure that your full spectrum CBD products are legal and contain less than 0.3% THC. A third-party lab report is the only transparent way to confirm this.

ENSURES THE QUALITY OF YOUR CBD PRODUCT

Without a third-party lab test, it is difficult to know whether or not the CBD product you are purchasing is of the highest quality. From the naturally occurring terpenes to the full spectrum of cannabinoids like CBD, THC, CBG, CBN, CBC, and CBDa, confirming the quality of your product is difficult unless you have the lab tests to prove it.

CONFIRMS THE ABSENCE OF HARMFUL CONTAMINANTS

Third-party lab testing also looks for harmful contaminants in full spectrum CBD products like CBD gummies. Hemp plants are known to absorb toxins and heavy metals from the soil, which can end up in the final product. Third-party lab testing screens for contaminants such as pesticides, residual solvents, heavy metals, and microbial contaminants. These contaminants can be harmful to human health, so it is important to ensure that full spectrum CBD products do not contain any traces of harmful elements.

PROVIDES TRANSPARENCY AND BUILDS TRUST

Third-party lab testing provides transparency and builds trust between consumers and CBD manufacturers. By publishing lab reports online, consumers can access detailed information about the quality and safety of the products they are using. This allows consumers to make informed decisions about which products to purchase and use, and helps to build trust with manufacturers who are committed to producing high-quality, safe products.
