"Our customers deserve the highest quality all-natural hemp CBD oil products in the world," states Marcos Agramont, Director of Operations for HempMeds, the master distributor of Dixie Botanicals. "Consumers expect to receive a product with the same hemp CBD oil volume, quality, taste and consistency. As with other natural products, standardization can be a challenge – and the cannabis industry is no different. Between Dixie Botanicals' unique formulations to the wide variety of innovative delivery methods and retail-ready commercial packaging, Dixie Botanicals addresses and overcomes major challenges that face the cannabis industry: quality assurance and standardization."
Agramont continues, "Dixie Botanicals fans will be pleased to know that the new Dixie Stix oral applicator tube provides a 100mg serving of CBD hemp oil with every turn of the tube dial. This takes the guess work out of how much product volume should be in one suggested serving."

The world widely regards hemp as a super food. Hemp products can be found in many health food stores, grocery stores and online shops. For health conscious consumers seeking a convenient way to add hemp oil to their daily routine, Dixie Botanicals™ cannabidiol (CBD) hemp oil is offered in a wide range of products. The CBD hemp oil used to make Dixie Botanicals™ products is derived from the mature stalk of the hemp plant and is considered a whole food nutrient delivering the benefits of cannabinoids without the psychotropic/euphoric effects of THC. As a result, Dixie Botanicals™ products ship throughout the U.S. and world.
Dr. Stuart W. Titus, PhD and Chief Executive Officer of Medical Marijuana, Inc. states, "Dixie Botanicals MCT and CBD hemp oil blend is a new step forward for the globally recognized brand. Dixie Stix adds a new dimension to the globally recognized product line while maintaining the quality CBD hemp oil that Dixie Botanicals customers have come to rely upon. Ensuring that consumers consistently receive the same suggested serving is a great accomplishment; this is a perfect example of how standardization is being addressed in the cannabis industry."
