CBD in Switzerland: issues and perspectives
The cannabidiol industry in Switzerland is growing rapidly - one of the fastest in Europe. And although statistics are lacking, Swiss CBD is highly prized due to its quality and effectiveness.
Currently, legislation prohibits CBD edibles in our country. However, the 1% rate of THC authorized in these products allows the Swiss market to have a great diversity of products. Whether it is at the level of flowerss, the oils or other derived products, customers can therefore benefit from a wide range of choices. Unfortunately, this is not the case in other European countries such as France, where any CBD product must have a maximum of 0% THC to be legally marketed.
CBD in Switzerland: the advantages of the companiesnterprises
Unlike our beloved European neighbors, Switzerland is a very attractive country for cannabis and CBD companies looking to enter the market. A company based in Switzerland can not only use industrial hemp, but also different varieties of cannabis with low THC concentration. This of course allows for a greater choice in raw materials as well as in the products derived from them.
Where to buy CBD in Switzerland
Buying CBD in Switzerland, especially thanks to e-commerce, has become a quick and easy thing to do. You can find it in specialist shops in most cities but also in many other outlets such as petrol stations, kiosks or grocery stores/supermarkets. And of course there are also many online CBD shops like Naturalpesto order from home.
Switzerland: an important market
Why has Switzerland become a major player in the CBD market? This is mainly due to the country's progressive laws: Switzerland recognises the therapeutic benefits of CBD and it is also possible for a doctor to prescribe medicines containing cannabis. According to the Federal Office of Public Health, these cannabis-based medicines are mainly used in medical practice to treat chronic pain conditions, loss of appetite and nausea during chemotherapy or spasticity or cramps caused by certain neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis.
The superior quality of Swiss CBD
There is also the aspect of the quality of the product: the more cannabis plants mature, the higher the concentrations of cannabinoids. A plant that reaches a THC concentration of 1% will therefore have a higher level of other cannabinoids like CBD. This higher concentration is reflected in the extracts made, making CBD oils, for example, more therapeutically effective than those extracted from plants with lower THC content. Swiss CBD consumers therefore have access to products, whether oils or flowers, that are much more effective than their European counterparts.
Is it really Swiss CBD?
However, beware of misleading advertising when buying cannabis products. Indeed, some companies do not hesitate to present their CBD products in a certain way in order to lead the customer to believe that they are Swiss products. This is not always the case.
So as a consumer, how can you be sure of a product's origin? Swiss products have the controlled designation "Swiss Made" or "Made in Switzerland", and the extracts must be manufactured in Swiss laboratories. If in doubt, simply ask the customer service department about the place of production and the laboratory where the extractions and transformations of the raw materials take place.
