CBD OIL REVIEW - CTFO

CTFO: 60-Second Summary

CTFO stands for Changing the Future Outcome. Of what, we’re not quite sure. CTFO offers a large variety of CBD-based products and many products that contain no CBD at all. Their focus seems to be largely on marketing, offering individuals free, tailor-made websites to sell their product line. Think Mary Kay for the CBD business. We were able to award CTFO a badge for quality but could not in good conscience grant them our approval in safety, innovation, charity, and mission. See why below.

CTFO Brand Review

CTFO uses CO2 extracted industrial hemp grown organically on American soil. Where? Who knows. They conduct third-party testing for contaminants for each SKU of CBD product but do not post results regularly. As of this review, they were nearly three months behind.

CTFO has a wide range of products containing both isolate and full spectrum varieties. This brand has practically everything you can think of in the current CBD market: tinctures, capsules, gummies, oral sprays, topicals, pet products, vape products, you name it. They also sell serums, creams, and other skin care products with no CBD at all.

Unfortunately, we found some unsavory ingredients in some of these products. Their CBD gummies contain artificial colors and flavorings, including Yellow 5 whose documented negative effects are well known. CTFO sells hair growth products which contain EDTA, another notoriously harmful ingredient. For these reasons along with a lag in third-party testing, we cannot award them the safety badge.

CTFO claims to give proceeds to charity and claims that, “God is at the center of all we do.” The former we cannot substantiate; the latter we obviously can’t either. And on top of that, there is a lack of a genuine mission to offer high-quality hemp as an alternative solution to wellness issues. Instead, the aim is marketing. Though they might not say it, their mission is to get as many people selling their products online as possible because this is the business model they’re going with. Safety, quality, and a real love for hemp and what it can do seem relatively absent.

Bottom Line – CTFO is more committed to their marketing scheme than to the integrity of their products and processes. Founded and run by serial marketing professionals, we find a lack of sincerity in the brand. We went ahead and awarded the quality badge since we have indeed seen third-party test results that point to quality extract. However, these results are not current, and harmful ingredients like EDTA and artificial coloring prevent any safety designation by us.
