How do you know if what you're consuming is high quality CBD if the FDA doesn't oversee supplements? I'll help shed some light on this topic.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is just one of over 85 cannabinoids that is identified in the cannabis plant. CBD is popular for having a wide scope of medicinal benefits – due to clinical reports and mounds of test data showing little to no side effects and a lack of psychoactivity (typically associated with marijuana products and high THC).

Are CBD products safe?

I chose to distribute HempWorx CBD products because they are made with certified organic hemp grown in Kentucky and are 100% free of any synthetic or artificial ingredients. We have 80% purity levels whereas our competitors have 15-40%. Everything is tested in an FDA Approved facility.

HempWorx products are 100% safe and effective to use. We are trusted by top doctors and health professionals worldwide. Additionally, our products have been made using the purest, and most potent ingredients backed by mounds of clinical data and stability testing.

All our hemp crops are grown free of chemical fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides, so our quality starts with our hemp plants. From the time our hemp oil is harvested to the manufacturing and shipping of our products, we test our hemp oil multiple times to ensure accuracy in potency information and to check for contaminants like pesticides, herbicides, heavy metals, and mold, as well as cannabinoid content. We also use a subcritical CO2 method when we extract our hemp oil, instead of harsh solvents. CO2 is a much healthier choice than other potential solvents and is "generally regarded as safe" (GRAS) by the FDA.

What kind of testing/analysis is performed on your items?

All of our products are manufactured in an FDA registered, FDA food registered, FDA approved, CGMP certified, and cruelty free facility. All that being true, the FDA does not officially approve any supplements on the market. Point being, we believe in 100% transparency with our customers and affiliates. Every batch of product we produce gets sent out for Third Party Testing before we pick, pack, and ship product to the end user. This is the HempWorx commitment to you. A product you can count on each and every time. We undergo extensive stability testing and can provide a Certificate of Analysis and Chromatography Test.

What's the difference between some store-bought CBD oils and HempWorx CBD by The Detox Artist?

HempWorx has the purest form of CBD oil, and we have lab reports to back that up. Our tinctures contain only two ingredients - CBD Oil that's extracted using CO2 extraction method and cold-pressed hemp seed oil. Hemp seed oil is the carrier oil for the thicker CBD oil. Check the label of most anything else and you will find added ingredients which weaken the CBD which means you have to use more product and that the ingredients are lower in quality.

Certified by the U.S. Hemp Authority

HempWorx is one of only 13 companies to receive endorsement and the stamp of approval. As the hemp industry in America gains respect for it NON-psychoactive properties, I chose to use and sell a brand that is certified. In addition to elevating consumer confidence in the quality and safety of hemp products, this voluntary certification demonstrates the industry’s commitment to working with federal and state regulators and law enforcement agencies. Modeled after existing federal regulations for manufacturing in the dietary supplement industry, these standards offer an industry-led model for any future regulations to ensure safety and quality.
