What is a COA or Certificate of Analysis

2/2/2023

0 Comments

 
Picture
A third-party lab analysis for CBD products is a test conducted by an independent laboratory to determine the quality and potency of a CBD product. This analysis verifies the amount of CBD and other cannabinoids present in the product, as well as checking for any contaminants, such as heavy metals, pesticides, and solvents. The results of the analysis provide consumers with valuable information about the product they are purchasing and ensure that it meets industry standards for quality and safety.

It is also important to look for a 3rd party COA for the potency of your CBD since what is on the label might not be what is in the bottle without one.

What is CBD?

We are glad you asked!

Picture
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychoactive compound found in the hemp plant, a close relative of the marijuana plant. CBD is one of over 100 compounds found in the hemp plant, known as cannabinoids. Unlike its cousin, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), CBD does not cause the "high" commonly associated with marijuana use.

CBD is often used for its potential health benefits, which are believed to include relief from anxiety and depression, reduction in inflammation and pain, and improvement in sleep quality. CBD is also being explored as a possible treatment for a variety of medical conditions, including epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson's disease.

CBD can be found in a variety of products, including oils and tinctures, edibles, and topicals. Many people find that taking CBD orally, either by itself or mixed into a food or beverage, is an effective way to experience its benefits. Topical CBD products, such as creams and balms, are also popular for those seeking localized relief from pain or inflammation.

It is important to note that the effects of CBD can vary from person to person and that not all CBD products are created equal. The quality and potency of CBD products can vary greatly depending on the manufacturer, so it is important to do your research and choose a reputable brand.

Additionally, the regulation of CBD products is still in its infancy, so it is important to check the legality of CBD in your jurisdiction before purchasing or using it. In the United States, the legality of CBD is complicated and can vary depending on a variety of factors, including the source of the hemp used to produce it and the presence of THC in the product.

In conclusion, CBD is a compound found in the hemp plant that is being explored for its potential health benefits. While more research is needed to fully understand its effects, many people have reported positive experiences with using CBD. However, it is important to choose a reputable brand and understand the legality of CBD in your jurisdiction before using it.

The same plant, but two different products

Picture
Hemp oil and CBD oil are both products derived from hemp, but they are different products with different uses and benefits.

​Hemp oil, also known as hempseed oil, is extracted from the seeds of the hemp plant and is used for cooking and skincare purposes. It is rich in nutrients, such as essential fatty acids, but does not contain any CBD.

​CBD oil, on the other hand, is made from the flowers, leaves, and stalks of the hemp plant and contains a high concentration of cannabidiol (CBD), a naturally occurring compound with potential health benefits. CBD oil is used for wellness purposes and is commonly taken orally or applied topically.
​
In summary, hemp oil is used mainly for culinary and cosmetic purposes, while CBD oil is used for its potential health benefits.

Why growing organic matters?

Growing Organically means a healthy future!

Picture
Organic food is pretty popular nowadays and is considered being the best option for both personal health and environmental sustainability. However, growing organically can be more expensive and there are challenges to its sustainability and health benefits.  Since we vote with our dollar many of us may question if it is worth the cost?
​
The answer of course is yes and here are a few reasons why growing organically is the best choice for both human health and the environment:
  1. Healthier food and better taste: Organic food is grown without the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, making it a healthier choice for you and the environment. Many people find that organic food has a better taste and texture compared to conventionally grown food.
  2. Reduced Chemical Exposure and environmental impact: Organic farming practices can help to reduce the negative impact of agriculture on the environment by promoting healthy soil, reducing the use of harmful chemicals, and conserving resources. Organic farming prohibits the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, reducing the amount of chemicals in the environment and in the food we eat. This reduces our exposure to potentially harmful chemicals and helps to protect the environment and wildlife.
  3. Soil Health: Organic farming practices, such as crop rotation and the use of compost and natural fertilizers, help to maintain healthy soil and promote biodiversity. This not only supports the growth of nutrient-rich food, but also helps to combat soil erosion and degradation.
  4. Better Air Quality: By reducing the use of chemicals and promoting healthy soil, organic farming can improve air quality and reduce the release of harmful pollutants into the atmosphere.
  5. Supports Biodiversity: Organic farming often involves a greater variety of crops, which can help to support biodiversity by providing habitat for a wider range of plants and animals.
  6. Supports Sustainable Agriculture: Organic farming is a sustainable form of agriculture that emphasizes the use of natural processes and the conservation of resources. This helps to reduce the negative impact of agriculture on the environment and to ensure that future generations can continue to grow food.
Growing your own food can be a rewarding and fulfilling experience, allowing you to connect with the land and to understand where your food comes from. Overall, growing organic food is a healthier and more environmentally responsible choice that can contribute to a more sustainable future
