Before you make your first CBD purchase, there are a few things to consider. It's important to understand the type of CBD product you're buying, its potency, and the supplier or manufacturer. You should also be aware of the legal status of CBD in your state, as well as any potential side effects. Additionally, it's important to be aware that good quality CBD can be expensive and that it doesn't solve all problems.
Fetuses develop certain cannabinoid receptors in the brain at 14 weeks, so it's possible that CBD could interfere with normal fetal brain development. With so many brands on the market, it can be difficult to know which ones are trustworthy. Recent FDA test results showed that many products don't contain the amount of CBD stated on the label, and some even contain traces of heavy metals, pesticides, or other hazardous impurities. At First Crop, we believe that you shouldn't have to guess if you're getting the purest, highest quality products possible that actually work as intended.
That's why we created our USDA certified organic CBD products, a complete line of holistic formulations derived from a plant known for its healing abilities for more than 10,000 years. We grow our hemp organically with farmers dedicated to regenerative agricultural practices and combine our organic hemp extract with active botanical ingredients to amplify their therapeutic benefits. We control our products from the seed that is deposited in the soil to the product that ends up on the shelf and we test them several times along the way from our farms to your home. You can view third-party lab reports for all our products on our website.
When buying CBD oil, it's important to know the terms associated with it and how to read the label of a CBD oil product. Unfortunately, due to a lack of clear and consistently enforced regulations, there are hundreds of low-quality brands on sale. The FDA does not regulate CBD products, so it's up to the buyer to choose quality products. Companies' websites should have a COA available so that potential buyers can test a product before making their purchase.
It's also important to watch for other allergens in food products and look for any unknown ingredient names before buying any CBD product. If you're allergic to gluten, check the list of ingredients and supply information for any CBD product you buy. Additionally, until regulations for testing and labeling are established, there are no regulations in place regarding safety, purity, or optimal dosage. Finally, unless you buy pure CBD oil (called isolated CBD), you're likely to ingest other cannabinoids and compounds called terpenes in products labeled “broad-spectrum CBD” and “full-spectrum CBD”, the latter of which includes small traces of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Check your state's local cannabis laws and regulations to find out if it's considered legal to buy CBD products in your state.
