We are talking about CBD, known as Cannabidiol, it is a plant compound found as part of the Hemp plant and flower and which has been nursing and aiding human beings for centuries.

Your main concern is to ensure you are buying from a reliable and reputable source, and that the products you purchase are of good quality.

Top 3 features to look for when purchasing CBD products.
- Concentration. How much CBD is present in your product, there is no point in buying an item with little to no CBD present, and not only are you wasting your money but you won’t experience any of the health advantages CBD has to offer.
- Ingredients. Reading ingredient labels may not come naturally to you like so many of us, but if it means the difference between reaping the benefits of a natural health product then a minute to scan the product list is essential. You want to make sure there are no harsh chemicals or preservatives, unpronounceable ingredient names (because who knows what you could be putting into your body), and a stamp of regular product testing visible.
- THC. This element is present even after extraction but should be no more than 0.3% content in any CBD product to ensure it is safe for consumption. THC is the hallucinogenic element found in the Hemp plant and its concentration should be labeled on products and packaging.
THC (read about it in this link) makes up one-half of the plant, the other of course, being CBD, but with proper extraction methods of which CO2 is considered the best although pricier, it has no side-effects or impact on the consumer.
CBD has been around for centuries and is only in recent years being fully looked into and implemented into daily lives, integrated into everyday products from foods to beauty and cosmetics, and is taking the world by storm. We could all use a natural product to make life easier, happier, and most importantly healthier, after all, we only have one life we need to take care of it.
