The CBD industry is not regulated and at times is referred to as the "Wild West". Before you buy CBD online or in-store, be informed.  sure to keep an eye out for these factors.

  1. Amazon "CBD" Products - It is NOT advisable to purchase CBD products from Amazon vendors. Amazon does NOT allow the sale of hemp-derived CBD products. Meanwhile companies are on Amazon selling hemp seed oil/hemp oil, marketed as hemp derived CBD oil. HEMP OIL/HEMP SEED OIL, is NOT CBD oil.
  2. "Free trial bottle - just pay shipping" - Beware of companies who offer "free trial bottles". These companies are reportedly scam companies who capture  your credit card information and enroll you into a "CBD club" without your authorization, forcing you to incur monthly charges. Avoid these scams.
  3. Miracle Drug Claims -  Be wary of a CBD brand that has claimed their products have heal or cure anxiety, arthritis or any other condition. These companies are simply violating FDA policies about making claims. Thus far, there no studies that show or prove that CBD can cure or heal disease. Researches have only noted promising results of how effective CBD can be. If they are willing to ignore FDA compliance in an effort to gain profits, can they be trusted to bring you quality products from organic farm practices?
  4. Selling On Social Media - When buying CBD from social media outlets, there is no certainty or guarantee of the product you will get. In addition, there a lot of multi-level marketing companies using these outlets to advertise high-quality CBD products, but in reality have little to no quality assurance or CBD in their products.
  5. No Third-Party Laboratory Results - Much like the social media issues, anyone can claim to sell CBD Oil. Before purchasing any products always make sure third party laboratory results are posted publicly and are up to date. Without these test results, there is no way to ensure your products are THC-free and test free of heavy metals.
  6. Properly Labeled Products - Mislabeling is a major issue in the CBD industry. Here are a few of things to look for prior to purchasing any CBD product. Every label should have the total amount of CBD per bottle, servings per container, serving size, ingredient list, customer service number on the bottle, and a company name and address. To learn more about what to look for on CBD labels please read our How To Read CBD Labels blog post.
  7. Customer Service - You always want to make sure you order from companies who have customer service easily accessible via phone, email or chat. If you cannot reach a company's customer service, how can you rely on them to produce a quality product or answer questions about the product or your concerns?

Choose A Product

We always recommend choosing one product to start with to figure out the effectiveness on your body and determine the right serving size for you. If you continuously switch back and forth between products, determining the right serving size and product will be much tougher.

Start Low & Go Up

We always recommend starting at a low dosage and serving size and go up from there. This gives you a chance to determine your body's reaction to CBD. We typically recommend starting anywhere between 20-30mg daily and increase or decrease based on the results you experience.

Increase Serving Slowly

If you are experiencing results, but not at the level you desire, we recommend doubling your serving. Each time you increase the dosage we recommend waiting a few days to take note of how your body feels.

Lifestyle Considerations

Your lifestyle is a factor in which product will be the right one for you. If you are often "on the go" or traveling, we recommend either our oil tinctures or edibles, as they are not messy and easy to travel with. If you would prefer to not consume CBD, then using CBD topical products would be best.

Use Considerations

Certain ways of taking CBD can yield better results than others based on what you are trying to achieve. For example, CBD topical would be best for targeted relief whereas, CBD watermelon cubes for whole body desired effects.

Time Considerations

Different methods of use have a different timeline effect. For example, edibles can take over an hour to to be effective, while vaping or inhaling CBD can yield results almost instantly.

Serving Considerations

Another factor that must be taken into consideration is your serving needs. If you are looking for an easy way to gauge a definite amount of CBD  that you would like to take, CBD softgels are the best option. If you are looking for more flexibility, CBD oil tinctures would be ideal.

The ideal serving of CBD depends on a variety of factors as well as the form of the product that is being used, the strength of the CBD, genetic makeup, height, weight and so on.

Almost all CBD products list a suggested serving size. However, it is important to keep in mind that the suggested serving size listed is generalized. As everyone is different, it is impossible to determine a single serving for each individual because there are variables that you need to take into account based on the individual. In addition, the serving size will vary greatly depending on why CBD is being used and what you are trying to accomplish with CBD.

The most important factor to be considered is that both serving size and duration of use work hand in hand depending on the reason CBD is being used. One might be using CBD to support overall wellness, while another can be using CBD to manage a condition.

There are numerous factors that come into play when determining the amount of time it takes for CBD to start working in your system. Some variables are related to the actual CBD itself, while others are related to how the human body endocannabinoid system reacts to CBD.

There is no one size fits all model in CBD, since in human genetics no two people are the same. Therefore, no two people react to CBD the same way. There are factors that have to be considered such as, weight, age, height, and metabolism, and all play a factor when you consume CBD.

The type of CBD product you consume is one of the biggest factors when it comes to CBD's timeline effects. For example, it will most likely take longer for a CBD edible to take effect, compared to a CBD oil tincture.

As there is no definite time frame that you will experience the effects, this information should be considered as a general guide and will vary from person to person.

Yes, you can give pets CBD oil. Pets like dogs, cats, and horses all have a natural endocannabinoid system with CB1 and CB2 receptors, so they can benefit from cannabinoids as well. When it comes to pets, the dosage varies greatly and a bigger dosage doesn't always correlate with a bigger animal. It is a good idea to talk with a veterinarian who is familiar with CBD before you give your pet CBD in the form of CBD Dog Chews, CBD Oil Tinctures For Pets or CBD Horse Products.

There is no record of anyone ever overdosing from CBD. CBD is non-toxic

The ideal serving will vary by person, but we typically recommend starting at 20-30mg daily. Meanwhile, the range typically varies from 5 milligrams to 50 milligrams daily.

Stat slow 3-4 drops per day & increase a drop or 2 every 3-4 days till you get the results you need.

No, CBD is classified as hemp and is readily available for purchase to all individuals who want to use CBD. Currently, CBD can be found in various retail locations varying from pharmacies to your local health food store.

No, CBD should not get you high. Properly produced and extracted CBD will not get you high and does not contain enough THC in high enough concentrations to produce a high.

CBD oil produced by some manufacturers can contain trace amounts of THC. However, here at GoGreen Hemp, all of our products are produced using a double extraction process to ensure all THC is extracted while leaving the other cannabinoids and terpenes intact.


We understand that these terms may be new and slightly confusing. To summarize, there are a variety of products that contain varying levels of CBD as well as other cannabinoids and terpenes.

  • Hemp Seed Oil - These products, often found on Amazon, are produced from hemp seeds only and DO NOT contain CBD. To learn more click here.
  • CBD Isolate - Purified CBD that only contains CBD and none of the other beneficial naturally occurring terpenes and cannabinoids. These products typically are cheaper since they do not provide  the medicinal benefits as a full or broad-spectrum CBD product.
  • CBD Full Spectrum - Oil rich in CBD and the beneficial cannabinoids and terpenes, along with THC (below .3%).
  • CBD Broad Spectrum - Oil rich in CBD and the beneficial cannabinoids and terpenes, WITHOUT THC.

CBD-Infused can be used to describe either a product that has been infused with CBD isolate or a product that has been infused with CBD rich full spectrum or broad-spectrum oil. A properly labeled CBD product will specify in the ingredients what type of CBD is being used. If the ingredients include CBD isolate, that product is not full spectrum. If the ingredients include full or broad-spectrum CBD then you are getting a full or broad-spectrum product. It is important to know the difference because they produce different therapeutic effects

What is CBD Oil?

CBD oil is a natural extract that is extracted from the flowers and leaves of the cannabis plant. It can be used in various ways for a variety of different purposes.

Broad Spectrum CBD oil contains CBD and a variety of active compounds such as cannabinoids and terpenes. When each of these different active compounds is present they work in conjunction for greater results.

Depending on the formulation of the product, it may also contain other beneficial compounds such as omega fatty acids, minerals, amino acids, and vitamins.

Getting to Know The Cannabis Plant

There are two main species of the cannabis plant family that we will highlight. These two species are cultivated for human use and consist of cannabis indica and cannabis sativa.

Sativa plants are taller and produce more fiber, and are therefore the species from which hemp cultivation is done. Indicia plants are much shorter and bushlike, and are less suitable for farming for the production of food or industrial purposes. These plants are instead used for producing medicinal marijuana.

Overview of the different types of CBD

Isolate

Hemp-derived CBD isolate products are cannabinoids in its purest form possible. CBD isolates are made by isolating CBD and then refining it to a high potent single compound product. This results in an almost pure dose of CBD. CBD isolates are mostly found in a crystalline form. A pure dose sounds amazing but isolate CBD misses out on the benefits that the other plant compounds provide. Isolate CBD can become an issue when it comes to dosing. With the other cannabinoids not present to balance it out, pure CBD yields less effect. In other words, the dosage must be specific in order to get the desired effect with CBD isolate products

Full Spectrum CBD Oil

Full-spectrum CBD, also referred to as whole plant CBD, contains everything that naturally occurs within the hemp plant. All of the plant parts which include terpenes, flavonoids, phytocannabinoids (CBD, THC (trace amounts - 0.3%), CBN, CBG, THCA, CBDA, plus..), vitamins, amino acids, minerals, and all other phytonutrients are present. Even if their content is small, when all the natural terpenes are present in the CBD oil with THC, this is considered Full Spectrum.

Broad Spectrum CBD Oil

Explaining Broad Spectrum CBD is relatively simple. It is simply Full Spectrum CBD without the THC. Broad Spectrum CBD is put through an additional extraction process to isolate and remove the THC while preserving the other natural cannabinoids and terpenes. Broad Spectrum CBD does not contain THC. With Broad Spectrum CBD, you get the "best of both worlds". You get the benefits of the "entourage effect" with no failed drug tests or intoxicating effects (being "high"). For those looking for a medicinal experience, this is the right option for you
