31% of CBD products were labeled correctly, 43% contained far less CBD than claimed, and many had more than 0.3% THC. Vaporization liquids were labeled correctly 12.5% of the time.

LOL, people think anything is being tested properly... I just went to the AHPA CBD/Hemp Congress in Colorado a week ago, and the vendors that attended are clueless. A policy advisor for the FDA presented there and it was hilarious hearing everyone freak out when she said CBD was illegal to be sold as a supplement, and currently has no other legal ways it can be sold for human consumption. I was sitting next to the guy from Alkemist, and we kept laughing at the testing questions. Nobody has any idea what they are doing. Hell, they had bottles of "full spectrum isolate" that was completely clear on our tables in front of us. Full spectrum but ALSO an isolate? Hmmmm. Either it's full spectrum, or it is an isolate. It can't be both. The FDA lady also said it was illegal to make a concentrate or isolate, period. LOL. It also said 0.00% THC. The only way that can happen is if they used synthetic CBD, which many people are doing to save money. However, just CBD alone kinda sucks. Anyone that has gotten good effects from CBD are likely feeling the THC, which is waaaay to high in most products, the terpenes, other minor cannabinoids, or a combination.
Anyway, this whole CBD thing is fucking stupid. It's in all the grocery stores around me with disease claims. It's still fucking illegal to sell as a supplement, and way illegal to make medical claims on it. Basha's has it out saying it can treat anxiety sitting next to fucking potato chips. They put it in the fucking cheese on a Carl's Jr burger in Denver, for fuck's sake... People are going to drive it into the ground. Nobody is going to take it seriously in a few years. It's a shame, because it can be used in beneficial ways when done properly. However, it is going to become a joke.
