CBD Oil in Georgia|Updated Guidelines

Is CBD legal in Georgia? The short answer is yes! Today we’re exploring CBD Oil in Georgia|Updated Guidelines.

Let’s talk about what’s up with CBD in beautiful Georgia!

Current CBD Laws in Georgia

CBD products are indeed, legal in Georgia with the exception of CBD in foods, beverages, supplements or animal food/treats.

The Georgia Hemp Farming Act passed in 2019, formally legalized CBD products that conform to the federal laws which mandate:

All CBD products must have 0.3% THC or less.

Georgia has had a restricted medical marijuana program since 2015.

Patients who qualify by prescription can access CBD-rich cannabis oil that contains 5% THC or less.

More Georgia CBD Laws

Until May 2019, only CBD products with zero percent THC were legal.

Once the Georgia Hemp Farming Act was passed, a redefinition of state laws were made to include 0.3 % THC max.

Georgians can now legally purchase CBD products (with no more than 0.3% THC).

Where To Find CBD Online?

Not knowing where to get CBD oil can be challenging – especially when trying to find a proper, legal and quality CBD oil.

As long as you know a few key and important factors, you’ll be able to find CBD oil that works for you!

Read on as we continue to explore CBD Oil in Georgia|Updated Guidelines.

Buying CBD Legally

CBD Broad Spectrum or CBD Isolate, which contain zero traces of CBD are your best buds here.

Broad Spectrum simply means that there is zero THC ( the psychoactive compound that gets you ‘high’) and some terpenes are not extracted.

Terpenes are natural chemicals found on the cannabis plant responsible for aroma and taste like limonene (lemon) and myrcene – which can be found in hops and has a peppery, spicy, balsam fragrance – like in beer!

They can make edibles taste wonderful, especially when you’re cooking.

CBD Isolate is CBD in it’s purest form, without any terpenes extracted whatsoever.

Where To Purchase CBD in Georgia

If you’re looking to try CBD and CBD products that are legal, you can purchase them from your local health and wellness dispensaries or licensed retailers.

You can also purchase CBD online through specific websites, as long as the products contain less than 0.3% THC.

CBD Labelling Requirements:

According to the Industrial Hemp Policy, all hemp-derived products including CBD oil have to be labelled to comply with state and federal laws:

• you must clearly identify hemp as an ingredient
• identify and label CBD, as well as the amount of CBD if added as an isolate
• include an FDA statement that they have not evaluated the product
• must not contain any therapeutic, health or nutritional benefit claims

How Can CBD Help Your Wellness?

CBD may help in one or more of the following health challenges or conditions:

• Chronic pain, seizures, severe nausea, and acute or persistent muscle spasms.
• Hepatitis C
• Glaucoma
• Immune deficiency syndrome
• Positive status for HIV
• Crohn’s disease
• and more.

What about Traveling Across States With CBD?

The type of CBD oil that’s derived from hemp oil is what’s legal at a federal level (as of the 2018 Farm Bill) and therefore allowed to be taken across state borders, and, yes, on flights within the USA.

Can I Order CBD Gummies From Another State?

According to the laws, If the THC percentage is below 0.3 percent, it is ok to order CBD from any other U.S state, because it falls under the “hemp” category.

Understanding CBD Products

There are many wonderful CBD products available in the States.

CBD Capsules or CBD Oil are great ways to start using CBD in a controlled, manageable way.

You can also enjoy CBD edibles like gummies or CBD cocktail mixers – which contain zero traces of THC.

There are also skincare and hair care products such as CBD Cream, and CBD Shampoo as well as CBD Conditioners – all wonderful wellness products that may improve the look and feel of skin and hair overall!

Then there’s the fun part of creating your own CBD edibles at home!
