“This is a significant milestone for our Company. Full spectrum products represent over 50% of the total addressable CBD market, according to the Brightfield Group^a. We are already recognized as one of the leaders in Superior Broad Spectrum hemp extract, a THC-free¹ formula. This has proved a popular option for professional athletes and others who undergo regular drug testing. Now with the expansion into the full spectrum product market, we have the opportunity to expand our consumer base and product offerings even further, allowing our customers a choice of the product that’s right for them. We are still committed to expanding our THC-free¹ line of products, but we’re excited to offer customers an entire new wellness experience through the benefits of the entire hemp plant. This is an exciting time to be a part of an industry that continues to find new ways to help millions of people across the world,” said ​​Martin Sumichrast, Chairman & co-CEO of cbdMD, Inc.

Current full spectrum product offerings on cbdMD.com include tinctures with 300, 750, or 1500 mg of CBD per 30 mL bottle, available in Chocolate Mint or unflavored Natural. Alongside the tinctures are 1000 and 2000 mg softgels available in a 30 and 60-count bottle.
