Garden Of Life® Introduces First Line Of CBD Formulas Certified THC-Free By Labdoor, The First-Of-Its-Kind Third-Party Authentication
New certification by Labdoor assures cannabidiol (CBD) formulas are thoroughly tested and verified to be THC-free, ensuring safety, traceability, quality and purity
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla., Aug. 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Garden of Life® announces the launch of its cannabidiol (CBD) line, the industry's first and only to be THC-Free Certified by Labdoor, providing absolute assurance for consumers seeking CBD products without psychoactive effects. Made from Broad Spectrum Whole Hemp Extract, the new Garden of Life Dr. Formulated CBD formulas contain a naturally occurring complex of cannabinoids, terpenes and fatty acids without THC (tetrahydrocannabinol). In addition, all of the products are Certified Non-GMO and gluten-free.
"There are a lot of unfamiliar terms and claims out there as more people seek out CBD products, and Labdoor's THC-free certification cuts through the clutter, providing absolute certainty around our products," said Garden of Life President Brian Ray. "As the leader in traceable, third-party certified nutrition solutions, we're proud to be first in the industry to partner with Labdoor in bringing this line to market."
THC-free Certified by Labdoor is the industry's only third-party certification around the presence of THC in hemp-derived products, such as CBD. Labdoor's new certification tests all CBD products before they are sold, and verifies the purity and potency of supplements and CBD products through its Quality Certification. To earn Certification, products must prove through testing that their active ingredient content always matches their label claims and that all products are free of heavy metals or microbiological contamination. These two certifications combine to answer consumers' biggest questions about product safety and quality.
"Labdoor certifies each lot of Garden of Life's CBD ingredients and finished products to ensure supply chain security," said Neil Thanedar, chief executive officer of Labdoor. "Informed consumers increasingly expect all of their products to be certified by independent organizations like Labdoor, and Garden of Life's commitment to this advanced proficiency testing will help make these certifications an industry-wide standard."
Studied and formulated by experts
To create the CBD line, Garden of Life worked with David Perlmutter, M.D., America's leading neurologist. Dr. Perlmutter is a New York Times best-selling author, leader in the study of the human microbiome and the driving force behind all Dr. Formulated products.
"Garden of Life is taking CBD formulation to the next level and these products will set the standard in the field. Made from the safest, cleanest and most trusted ingredients available, this new line opens up a world of possibilities for people seeking the therapeutic benefits of CBD, without the worry of any THC being ingested in the body," said Dr. Perlmutter.

How CBD products work
Cannabinoids are chemical compounds naturally found in the human body and also in hemp (cannabis) plants. Cannabinoids interact with receptors in the body to restore a normal state of healthy balance.
The cannabidiol, or CBD, present in hemp is not a psychoactive compound and will not produce a "high" effect unless it contains THC. All Garden of Life Dr. Formulated THC-free Labdoor Certified CBD products are made from American-grown hemp using a clean extraction process that is free from solvents and harsh chemicals.
"In light of the recent research regarding potential benefits of CBD, and the passage of the Farm Bill in 2018 legalizing industrial hemp containing less than 0.3 percent THC by dry weight, there has been tremendous consumer demand for CBD products," Ray added. "Our new formulas are ideal for consumers who want the benefits of CBD without the effects or implications of THC."
