The CBD certificate of analysis (CoA) is crucial to any product you’re about to use. It provides you with details about safety, purity, origin, and more. However, many people know very little to nothing about this critical CBD tool. Whether you’re new to CBD or use it regularly, there are some things you should know about the certificate of analysis to make the best choices.

Lab Testing Results
The CoA presents the results of lab testing. It gives all the pertinent information that a consumer needs when choosing between CBD vendors. The most reputable brands send their samples to third-party laboratories to get them tested. By sending them to independent labs, there are not any conflicts of interest. At the lab, technicians chemically analyze the CBD to determine its makeup and the percentages of ingredients. As a result, the certificate of analysis allows customers to view the purity and potency of a CBD product.

Breaking Down a Certificate
Lab testing proves the purity and safety of a product by confirming that there are no dangerous chemicals. In short, the certificate is critical in determining whether the CBD is adulterated. For example, a note on the CoA can let you know that the product contains no mold, mildew, or foreign matter.

A certificate of analysis also determines the cannabinoid profile, which varies from product to product. More importantly, you get an accurate view of the presence or lack of THC. Many consumers are concerned about THC; therefore, the certificate can provide peace of mind.
