Because CBD products are classed as food supplements they are not strictly regulated in the same way that medicines are. In the UK, this means that manufacturers are not required to submit their products for MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Authority) approval, or provide clinical evidence for their claims. Consequently, not all CBD products available on the market are safe to consume.
