THE CBD
Insights Team

The CBD Insights Team is a collection of experts in Cannabis and CBD with over 25 years of experience within the UK cannabis industry. It consists of writers, researchers, and professionals in the industry with years of direct experience with CBD products, assisting thousands of customers to see how CBD and cannabis could be part of their lifestyle and needs.

The CBD Insights Team provides clearly written, unbiased, and applicable articles based on first-hand knowledge and current research to help cut through misinformation and confusion. All of our articles will focus on the practical application of CBD and cannabis products, including safety, and provide an educational resource for readers rather than simply generating hype.

Articles produced by the CBD Insights Team are created and influenced by customer inquiries, concerns, and experiences. All of the topics we write about will be issues that consumers have expressed concern about, such as effects and legality, strains, formats, and everyday use of CBD and cannabis products.

All content developed by the CBD Insights Team will undergo review and editing to ensure that it is accurate, clear, and consistent. The final review and approval of all articles will be completed by Jack Woodhouse, Lead Editor of the HempElf Blog and founder of High & Polite, one of the UK's most established cannabis publications.
