The world of CBD is comparable to the wild west. With a great lack of regulations and no obligatory testing, it is extremely easy to launch any CBD product onto the market and offer it to the masses. Especially on the internet, numerous new brands emerged over the past few years - all claiming to offer ‘the best CBD oil’. Though some researchers recently discovered that not all CBD products on the market actually contain Cannabidiol! Outraged, we decided to develop a CBD detection liquid for home use. So you can test your CBD product to see if it actually contains what you paid for - fair and square!
If you’re in any doubt about the quality of your CBD, buy one of our home CBD test kits and check you got what you paid for!
No CBD in CBD oil?
It’s almost unbelievable, but it’s true. Recently, Dutch researchers purchased a number of different CBD oil products from various brands - both in physical stores and online. Their goal was to analyze the products for their contents; to see if the CBD oil actually contains CBD - and if the product is free from pesticides, heavy metals and other unwanted components. Obviously, that is not something you want in your CBD oil.
What you DO want in your CBD oil though, is Cannabidiol. The most important substance in the product, which actually gives CBD oil its name. For those who don’t know, Cannabidiol (CBD) is a natural component from the hemp plant - which is known for its positive effect on the body and mind. This is thanks to the interaction CBD has with our body’s own endocannabinoid system (ECS). But without CBD in your hemp oil, you can obviously forget about all the positive effects it could possibly offer. So, how can you be sure that the CBD oil you bought actually contains the plant’s substance?
Test CBD in CBD oil
To guarantee that your CBD oil actually contains Cannabidiol, there is only one thing you can do. And that is to test it. As not all companies are as fair as Dutch Natural Healing - considering we do everything we can to ensure our CBD products contain the exact amount of CBD we advertise them with. We do that by registering every move we make in neatly kept production logs, for example. After we’ve carefully tested our starting material for its contents and any unwanted ingredients. One of our many quality control processes, to guarantee our customers get a clean, fair and highly effective CBD product.
Though some companies do not care that much for the quality of their products, but rather focus on profit margins. The result? CBD oil with less CBD than you paid for or hemp oil with no CBD at all. Shocking, but true. Luckily, we will not let you sit in the dark and wonder what products do or do not contain CBD. As we’ve developed a CBD Detection kit with testing liquid for you to use at home, and check your hemp oil product for CBD yourself. But how does this CBD test work?
