NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ / ACCESSWIRE / June 18, 2019 / As consumer interest in the best CBD products continues to grow, large national retail giants are sticking a toe in the water but are doing so cautiously with topical CBD products instead of ingestible CBD. However ingestible CBD oils and capsules remain consumer favorites, see here https://cbdrevu.com/

CBD sales growth has been stunning and rapid growth continues despite a complicated and confused legal scenario. The 2018 Farm Bill passed by Congress and signed by the Executive Branch suggested to many that CBD now has a legal green light but others disagree and the laws remain complicated and confused. Additionally, some states view CBD as allowable by law and others do not. Even as consumers and many CBD business entities remain unsure of the legality of the substance, sales growth continues at an impressive rate. The hard line attitude concerning CBD by a number of jurisdictions stems from the fact that CBD comes from hemp, a relative of the same plant species as marijuana. But hemp does not get people high because it has at best only minuscule levels of THC, the cannabinoid that produces the well-known marijuana buzz. So, the controversy surrounding this non-intoxicating cannabinoid leaves many consumers confused.

Most CBD products are derived from industrial hemp. The CBD cannabinoid is extracted from the plant using a variety of different methods. Some CBD offerings have a zero level of THC while others have up to 0.3% THC. The law states that the THC concentration in CBD products must not exceed 3/10ths of 1%. While products containing more that 3/10ths of 1% are clearly in violation, controversy remains in many jurisdictions even for those products below the maximum allowable threshold.

Since availability of CBD products varies from state to state the easiest way for consumers to shop for CBD remains online. That is where the industry started just a few years ago. In the beginning a handful of companies produced and marketed CBD on their websites and the industry exploded by word of mouth. Back then, and to this day, advertising is very restrictive for CBD products even online. Facebook does not allow the sale or advertising of CBD products on its platform. Google or Amazon also does not allow the sale or advertising of CBD. Although a number of companies advertise Amazon CBD oil there is no such thing. There are many hemp seed oil products promoted on Amazon as if it were CBD, but Amazon does not permit the sale of CBD so shoppers should carefully examine the fine print on these type advertisements.

Many credit card processing continue to not allow credit card processing for CBD companies. And many banks will not allow transactions for CBD companies. PayPal is similarly restrictive in this product niche. Despite these substantial hurdles the significant expansion of the CBD market continues and now the big national chains increasingly want a piece of the CBD pie. But, they are entering the market only with topical products even though there is no known benefit for topical CBD.

All of the well-known national chains slated to begin offering CBD are only doing so on a very limited basis. All of those stores that have announced the addition of CBD to their product line will only be offering topical CBD as of this date. Some examples include Krogers which will have topical CBD in 945 stores in 17 states, Walgreens which will sell CBD creams, patches and sprays in their stores in select states, CVS which will sell CBD creams, sprays, roll-ons, lotions and salves in certain states. Rite Aid stores and others will have similar offerings.
