Drug Testing and CBD: What Veterans and Active Duty Personnel Need to Know
Nov 17, 2024
One of the most common questions we receive at UnCanna is whether CBD will cause someone to fail a drug test. For veterans and active duty personnel, maintaining compliance with workplace or military regulations is crucial. Here’s what you need to know about CBD, THC, and drug testing.
The Difference Between THC-Free and Full-Spectrum CBD
- THC-Free CBD: These products contain 0.0% THC, ensuring there’s no psychoactive compound in the formula. UnCanna’s THC-free tinctures and capsules are ideal for veterans and active duty personnel concerned about drug tests.
- Full-Spectrum CBD: Contains a small, federally legal amount of THC (<0.3%). While unlikely, prolonged use of full-spectrum CBD can potentially result in trace amounts of THC appearing on a drug test.
How Drug Tests Detect THC
Most drug tests are designed to identify THC metabolites, not CBD. However, cross-contamination or prolonged use of full-spectrum products can lead to detectable THC levels.
UnCanna’s Commitment to Transparency
- All our THC-free products are rigorously third-party tested to ensure they contain no detectable THC.
- Our Certificates of Analysis (COAs) are accessible via QR codes on every package, providing peace of mind to veterans and active duty personnel.
Tips for Safe CBD Use
- Choose THC-free products like those offered by UnCanna.
- Always review lab results to confirm THC levels.
- Consult your employer or commanding officer if you have specific concerns about CBD use.
By choosing UnCanna, you’re prioritizing both your wellness and your compliance, ensuring you get the natural benefits of CBD without the risks.
