A Note on Compliance

CBD product claims are heavily regulated. The FDA has not approved CBD as a dietary supplement or food ingredient in most contexts, and state agencies actively enforce labeling rules. Brands making health claims that aren't supported by clinical evidence face penalties. Look for retailers and brands that talk about compliance, lab testing, and consumer education — not miracle outcomes.
