When It’s Okay to Buy Cheap CBD

How much should you pay for your health and wellness? When it comes to CBD products, you should always strive to find the highest quality, organic hemp-derived CBD on the market. However, is there an acceptable time to buy cheap CBD? The answer isn’t as simple as you might think.

If you frequently purchase CBD products, you might have noticed the sometimes astronomical price tag on certain goods. The more frugal among us might want to find a way to cut costs and purchase cheap CBD oils, right? It’s all the same stuff, they might think.

But this kind of thinking can actually be dangerous: not all CBD is made the same. Not by a mile. Why? Because the CBD industry is still young, and while companies like CBD Choice keep your health and wellness in mind, others are just here for profit. If a company exclusively offers cheap CBD, you have the wonder where they’re cutting corners in order to cut costs; sometimes, they could be putting the quality of your CBD treatment at risk.

Trustworthy manufacturers make the highest quality products. These products come from organic hemp, utilize natural flavorings, and are sold with the highest order of customer service in mind. In addition, these products are overwhelmingly THC free: CBD products can legally contain 0.3 percent THC or less, and credible CBD manufacturers will always tell you when you’re taking THC.

So What’s the Problem with Cheap CBD Oils?

When discussing cheap CBD, THC is actually the first cannabinoid that comes to mind. Cheap, untrustworthy manufacturers sometimes use marijuana to make their products instead of organic hemp. These products far exceed the 0.3 percent THC limit and often cause you to feel intoxicating side effects. However, they’re still labeled “THC free,” leading you to believe that you’re getting authentic CBD tinctures.

And this is just one of the primary risks associated with cheap CBD products. Let’s look at some of the other important differences between cheap and trustworthy CBD.

Artificial vs. Natural Flavorings

Apart from not actually being THC free, sketchy manufacturers may also utilize artificial ingredients to flavor their cheap CBD oils. But there’s a catch: artificial flavors aren’t specifically that bad for you. According to Harvard University researchers, skilled scientists can synthesize flavors that mimic the structure of natural flavorings. These artificial copycats may be better for the environment than harvesting the natural essence of plants.

Artificial flavors aren’t the problem here. Instead, the problem is artificial sweeteners. Your cheap CBD oils likely contain artificial sweeteners such as high fructose corn syrup, known to cause inflammation and contribute to obesity. These sweeteners are used to mask the taste of cheap CBD products so that you can’t differentiate them from authentic, quality products.

Always check the ingredients of your CBD products. If you see an ingredient you don’t recognize, don’t hesitate to conduct your own independent research. What you put into your body is important, especially when it comes to CBD treatment: the whole point is to better your health and wellness, not introduce foreign, unnatural flavorings into your system.

The Importance of Organic Hemp

What makes hemp organic? According to the Organic Farming Research Foundation (OFRF), there are a variety of factors that constitute organic agricultural practices. These include:

• Organic farming must prioritize healthy food, healthy soil, healthy plants, and a healthy environment.
• Organic farming must take into account crop productivity, or how many crops are picked in a particular harvest.
• Organic farming must not use genetically modified (GM) seeds: GM seeds make genetically modified crops or organisms, also known as GMOs.
• Organic farming must not use synthetic pesticides.
• Organic farming must not use synthetic fertilizers.

With this list in mind, you can see why it’s important to buy CBD products made solely from organic hemp. The CBD industry is largely unregulated at this time, meaning it’s primarily up to manufacturers to create a safe, accountable, and trustworthy CBD industry. If hemp farmers follow organic agricultural guidelines, the end result will be the highest quality products.

In addition, inorganic agricultural processes utilize synthetic, harmful pesticides and fertilizers. These products can actually affect the final product, emphasizing the importance of third-party lab results. Cheap CBD products probably don’t offer lab results, one tell-tale sign that you shouldn’t purchase cheap CBD oils. Third-party lab results tell you the trace amounts of fertilizers, pesticides, and more in the final product. If it costs a little more to ensure we’re not ingesting chemical fertilizers, I’m all in.

When Is It Okay to Purchase Cheaper Products?

Don’t get us wrong: we love a good deal. Who doesn’t? So when is it actually okay to buy cheap CBD products?

One of the best times to get the most bang for your buck is during a sale. Sale events allow you to receive a percentage discount off the final sale price. Plus, CBD Choice loves giving out discounts! One little known fact about us: we have a great time coming up with sales for all sorts of events, allowing you to try a wider variety of products that you might not have considered otherwise. This is just one of the ways our customer service works for you!

What If There’s Not a Sale?

Sales are great, but if you’re an everyday CBD user, you might not be able to wait for the next sale. If that’s the case, it’s important to look for product liquidation or label misprints. You can always contact us directly and ask what’s going on behind the scenes. If we have products with misprinted labels, we can offer them to you at a discount. If we’re trying to liquidate a product from our stock to replace it with a different item, we can generally offer you that liquidated product at a considerable markdown!

Don’t ever be afraid to ask! At CBD Choice, customer service is one of our most important ideals. We’d never sell you something that we wouldn’t take ourselves, so reach out and ask us what products we’re currently thrilled about!

Cheap CBD? Only When Appropriate.

Don’t fall for the fake CBD scams. Don’t put your health and wellness at risk just to save a couple of bucks. There’s nothing wrong with buying CBD on sale or buying legitimate products with label misprints. In fact, CBD Choice constantly sends out coupons in our newsletter, and you get an immediate 15 percent off coupon for signing up, found at the bottom of our homepage! However, cheap CBD manufacturers don’t have your best interests in mind.

When deciding where to purchase your next batch of CBD products, always remember that customer service goes a long way. If someone doesn’t want to talk to you about their product, you probably shouldn't be taking it. Furthermore, if a CBD manufacturer won’t show you their third-party lab test results, their products are probably cheap knockoffs, sacrificing quality for savings.
