Buyer Beware: CBD Products Get A Test At Mile High Labs
But without wide federal oversight, there is no way of really knowing what's inside CBD.
BOULDER, Colo. (CBS NEWS) – CBD (or cannabidiol) products, containing a compound found in marijuana, have skyrocketed in popularity and seem to be for sale everywhere, from grocery stores, to coffee shops and gas stations. CBD itself does not get you high, but advocates say it can help with anything from muscle aches to anxiety. It’s forecast to become a $22 billion industry by 2024.
But without wide federal oversight, there is no way of really knowing what’s inside CBD. So, CBS News decided to find out. They partnered with Mile High Labs in Boulder to test nine CBD oil samples purchased from around the country.
