Live Well For Less

Sainsbury’s is well established and trusted in the UK, running over 600 supermarkets and 800 convenience stores. We love Sainsbury’s for their great value, helpful staff and fresh produce-  shown as over 16.8 million people own a Nectar card. The chain is famous for allowing it’s customer’s to “Live Well For Less”. Annually, they slash prices on thousands of products, without compromising on quality.  

Founded by John and May Ann Sainsbury in 1869, Sainsbury’s is Britain’s oldest supermarket chain. Starting out as a dairy shop on Drury Lane in London, Sainsbury’s soon moved onto specialising in quality meats. Growing rapidly throughout the 20th century, Sainsbury’s became the first UK supermarket to accomplish many feats. For example, offering organic food, carrier bags made from recycled material and digitalising distribution.

Now in 2020, Sainsbury’s has been doing their bit to give back during the pandemic. Key workers received pay raises, also matching customer’s Comic Relief donations.

Since 2018, Sainsbury’s has stocked CBD Oil. Our Dragonfly CBD Oil is sold in Sainsbury’s stores.

How to tell if your CBD Oil is quality

Before you buy any CBD Oil, it is essential to consult your pharmacist or GP if you’re taking existing medication. 

Buying a CBD Oil for the first time can be an intimidating task, due to the sheer variety out there. Many brands use a lot of complex terminology in reference to their CBD-  making the search process somewhat perplexing. To help you out, we’ve compiled a few tips, ensuring you only buy quality CBD Oils.

1. Check to see if the manufacturer has laboratory results available for every product they produce on their website. This may seem strange, as you’d expect that products would contain what they claim to! Last year, a BBC Investigation underlined how many CBD Oil products in fact do not include the claimed level of CBD on the packaging. In fact, many even include the illegal, psychotropic chemical THC!
2. Organic CBD Oil is by far the best to invest in. Hemp – the strain of Cannabis used to make CBD – has superb agricultural properties and can make soil non-toxic. This does, however, display how good Hemp is at absorption- and how harmful substances can be passed onto you through CBD. You can avoid these nasty surprises by only purchasing CBD that’s cultivated on organically certified soil!
3. You should also carefully consider the strength of any CBD Oil. There are many great guides on how much CBD to take per day, and a higher CBD content means a stronger serving. Once you’ve considered your reasons for taking CBD, this should help you to decide whether or not to invest a little more money in a stronger CBD Oil.
4. Whilst you would think that the price of CBD Oil would be another good indicator for quality, many expensive oils actually don’t even contain CBD! Similarly, very cheap oils are dangerous if they do not meet our aforementioned tips. Many believe that the benefits of CBD greatly justify its price. So, whilst price is important, it is more important to find the best CBD Oil before making your decision.
