Barlean's is a family owned, mission-driven company in the Pacific Northwest known for making the highest quality flax, fish and coconut oils available today. Barlean's has been making healthy oils for nearly 30 years, so CBD hemp oil was a natural extension of what it does well.

"We really needed to know that we could offer a product that was both the highest quality and that had the potential to make a real difference for people. I believe that CBD is a really powerful natural compound that has the potential to change lives in truly positive ways. What's also exciting is that hemp is a shot in the arm that American farmers really need." Barlean's Extra Strength Ideal CBD Hemp Oil con- tains 25mg CBD per serving (1,125mg total CBD per bot- tle) and less than 0.3 percent THC. Barlean's Extra Strength Ideal CBD is derived from industrial hemp grown on American farms. Not only is it sourced close to home, it includes a full spectrum of cannabinoids and other micronutrients. Extra Strength Ideal CBD Hemp Oil is vegan and gluten free. It uses MCT oil as the carrier oil, and has subtle mint flavor.
