Top 5 Organic CBD Brands Currently Trending In 2021

The brand name alone makes it hard to hold back a smile. We see a lot of companies tag their names with organic and related synonyms without having the credentials to back it up. Joy Organics is not one of those companies. The majority of their products are made using USDA Certified Organic CBD. Even those that aren’t sporting the certified label (yet) contain natural ingredients your grandmother could pronounce.

Joy Organics is the best organic CBD brand for those who prefer broad-spectrum products or have THC sensitivities. The company uses supercritical CO2 extraction and proprietary distillation technology to remove unwanted compounds, including wax, chlorophyll, plant pigments, and trace amounts of THC. The softgels go through another processing step to transform the raw hemp oil into nano-sized emulsions to enhance absorption and efficacy.

Before any batch is released, it goes through rigorous third-party lab testing for microbials (E. coli, yeast, mold), potency (ensuring what’s on the label is in the bottle), heavy metals (lead, arsenic, mercury, and cadmium), and pesticides (60 total). Lab results are published on the website, or you can scan the product’s QR code linking to both the internal lab reports on the raw oil and the third-party testing on the finished product.

Endoca captures the essence of being an organic CBD brand with their goal to make CBD commonplace in all homes in the world by 2030, having a place in the house just like salt and pepper. To help move this goal forward, the Endoca Foundation Access Program provides 50% off to people living below the poverty line and those with long-term disabilities.

Quality control is central to Endoca’s promise to provide the very best CBD products nature and science can offer. The process begins with using only the finest hemp grown organically under pristine natural conditions in Scandinavia. After harvesting the plants, a supercritical CO2 extraction process is used to produce high-grade hemp oil. An expert team of scientists, herbalists, and nutritionists manufacture natural, whole-plant organic CBD products free of synthetic ingredients.

The term quality control almost doesn’t feel strong enough to describe this company’s approach to GMP standards. Why? Endoca built a state-of-the-art laboratory that complies with pharmaceutical regulations to manufacture and test all of their products. While the website says third-party lab tests verify product quality, these results aren’t available. However, the internal lab reports are published with test results for over 200 different pesticides, heavy metals, and mycotoxins.

CBDistillery is packing some serious potency into their products that are all wrapped in educational labels providing extensive insight into what CBD is and what it can do for you. Each CBDistillery product has a certificate of analysis (COA) from ACS Laboratory, a third-party ISO 17025-accredited lab. Lab results can be accessed online or by scanning the QR code on the label to verify the potency, terpenes, water activity, heavy metals, microbiology petrifilm, pesticides, mycotoxins, and residual solvents.

The diverse product line is reasonably priced and filled with options for every type of CBD. They also have formulas infused with cannabigerol (CBG) and cannabinol (CBN). CBN is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid created from the oxidation of THC that can help regulate the immune system and provide relief from pain and inflammation. CBG is considered to be the building block for CBD, THC, and CBC (cannabichromene) and may improve pain, nausea, inflammation, and intraocular eye pressure caused by glaucoma.

All CBDistillery products are created using non-GMO industrial hemp grown in the US using natural farming practices that follow stringent FDA guidelines. The company is also certified by the United States Hemp Authority. This seal of approval means the brand has undergone USHA’s third-party lab audit to meet strict standards for ingredients, labeling, and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) compliance.

We know looks aren’t everything, but the Populum line is overflowing with aesthetic vibes. The brand got its start in 2016 with a single-minded goal to spread the good word of hemp’s potential health benefits with approachable CBD products. “Populum” translates to “The People” in Latin as a promise to always put their customers’ needs first.

Populum follows ethical and Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) regulations to deliver products that are vegan, cruelty-free, paraben-free, and non-GMO. 100% of the hemp CBD is grown in Colorado using organic farming practices. Food-grade ethanol alcohol extraction and fractionalized distillation cleans the organic CBD oil of all waxes, lipids, and chlorophyll. The result is a true full-spectrum extract that includes a unique profile of rarer cannabinoids, such as CBC, CBN, or CBG, and terpenes, such as Limonene.

To show their undying love and commitment to clean ingredients, Populum triple tests all of their products. After harvest, the first lab test checks for pesticides, heavy metals, and cannabinoid potency. The formulated oil is sent to a third-party lab to test for potency, microbials, and pesticides. As the final step, third-party labs thoroughly test the finished product for purity and accuracy. Populum sends a copy of third-party lab results in every shipment delivered right to the customer’s door.

Yes, you read that price correctly. Nuleaf Naturals product line arguably has the widest price range we have ever laid eyes on. Starting just under $39 and climbing up to nearly $2,000. The high-end price tag is for a 6-pack of CBD oils, but that breaks down to $439 for 6,000 mg of CBD, which is still a lot of Benjamins for the potency that other brands offer at a fraction of the cost.

Now that we’ve addressed the sticker shock, we should point out that Nuleaf Naturals is one of America’s top pioneering hemp companies. Founded by a group of plant medicine aficionados, Nuleaf Naturals formulates all of their products in FDA and Colorado Department of Health registered ISO9 and cGMP certified labs. The company controls the entire process from seed to shelf to deliver high-quality products with unsurpassed potency and consistency.

All products are made using organic hemp plants grown in Colorado with pristine rocky mountain water. Nuleaf Naturals uses a combination of advanced subcritical and supercritical CO2 extraction for a phytonutrient-rich profile of whole-plant cannabinoids, terpenes, and essential oils. ISO-17025 certified third-party labs independently verify each batch of products for potency, heavy metals, microbial contaminants, pesticide residue, and residual solvents.
