"HempMeds™ is extremely proud to offer multi-award winning CBD-rich hemp oil products that our customers trust and rely on," states Andrew Hard, Director of Public Relations for HempMeds™. "From 'seed to sale,' the Company conducts multiple internal analyses to comply with multi-national government agencies in order to import our hemp oil. Once imported, the CBD-rich hemp oil undergoes further internal testing and at least one third-party analysis per batch prior to creating retail products. As news about these innovative CBD-rich hemp oil nutritional supplements, functional foods, and personal care products spreads globally, we felt that sharing these extremely detailed laboratory reports will show the public the great care taken to ensure our customers always receive an exceptionally high quality product with each purchase. We clearly go the extra mile to gain and retain our customers' trust."
Hard continues, "In addition to the support we receive from our customers, we are equally thrilled that members of the medical community, healthcare practitioners, parents, individuals, and the mainstream news media are supporting the CBD-rich hemp oil brands that HempMeds provides."
