Cannabidiol, or CBD oil, has become one of the most popular supplements in recent years. Quality varies greatly, however, and I have been privy to independent tests which reveal that some mainstream CBD supplements available on the High Street contain low levels of CBD that do not meet their label claims. This is because they have not been made to a pharmaceutical standard known as GMP which ensures purity, quality and consistency of every dose. Here I recommend what I consider are the best CBD supplements.

CBD oil capsules
If, like me, you do not like the earthy taste of CBD and prefer to take cannabidiol oil in the form of a capsule, then Healthspan (for whom I act as a medical consultant) offer two strengths of capsule which are made to GMP standards.
 |
High strength CBD oil (6.4mg cannabidiol) with added olive oil to aid absorption. (The 384mg CBD mentioned on the label is the total amount of CBD within the whole pack.)
Dose: one to three capsules daily with water. This is a good starting dose that can be slowly increased from one capsule to three capsules per day to find what works best for you. |
 |
Super Strength CBD Oil (15mg cannabidiol per capsule) with added hemp oil to aid absorption. (The 900mg CBD mentioned on the label is the total amount of CBD within the whole pack.)
Dose: one to two capsules daily with water. This is a great ‘next step’ supplement if you find a lower dose does not work as well as you would like. |
Healthspan supplements are available from Healthspan and Boots.
Disclaimer: I act as a medical consultant to Healthspan, which is why I can confirm their quality.
