The answer to these questions lies in the fact that there are many steps and much plant material required to produce the end product. First, a fairly substantial amount of hemp has to be grown, which takes months, to produce enough seeds and stalk to produce a very small amount of hemp extract. Then, the extract has to be extensively tested to ensure its compound make up and its purity. The extract is then formulated into CBD oil.
The best way to compare prices is to break each product down to a “cost per milligram of CBD”. By doing this, you can then start to compare the prices of the products.
Also, as a general rule of thumb, the most common amount used is 15mg per day for general health maintenance and on this basis, a 5000mg bottle would last almost a year and cost less than $1.40 per day which is very affordable for most people.
