RealTestedCBD.com is an unbiased platform designed to distill facts from fallacies. Walk into a supermarket or a yoga studio or an airport and you’ll find CBD sold on its shelves. You will sometimes find an ingredients label. You may even find the product origin. But oftentimes you will not find the lab tested results associated with that CBD product.  Until now. RealTestedCBD.com uses empirical tested data from the independently-owned Earth Labs in Irvine, CA, to show you what’s really in your CBD. (Eg: Where the cbd comes from, how true to the label claims, did it pass pesticide screening, etc.). We are here to mythbust CBD and give consumers the knowledge on cannabis’ non-psychoactive, ‘non-illicit’ cousin, hemp.
