Comparison principle: Brand recognition and marketing slogans do not identify the composition of a specific bottle or package. The label and matching batch report are the stronger comparison tools.
What to check
Use the same checklist for either brand
CBD per mL or serving, total CBD, extract type, THC statement, complete ingredients, warnings, and lot or batch number.
Matching product and lot, laboratory name, test date, CBD and THC values, units, and the contaminant panels actually performed.
Look for product-specific extraction, formulation, facility, and testing information rather than broad quality language alone.
A potency-only report does not establish pesticide, heavy-metal, residual-solvent, or microbial results unless those panels were performed.
