About NuLeaf Naturals
NuLeaf Naturals was founded in 2014 and is based in Denver, Colorado. The company says its hemp is grown on licensed farms in Colorado and that it extracts only with CO2, combining supercritical and subcritical extraction. It describes its facilities as cGMP certified.
What sets the range apart is how it handles the minor cannabinoids. NuLeaf sells CBG, CBC and CBN on their own, each standardized to 15mg per softgel, the same level it uses for CBD. That makes the range directly comparable: one variable at a time, at a real amount. Most of the line is full spectrum and uses organic virgin hemp seed oil as the carrier instead of coconut MCT oil.
Pros and cons
What we like
- CBG and CBC sold on their own at 15mg per softgel, which is rare. Most products carry a few milligrams of them next to a large CBD figure.
- Short ingredient lists. The softgels are extract and organic virgin hemp seed oil; the balm is extract and organic shea butter.
- The gummies use a pectin base, organic ingredients and no artificial colors or flavors.
- A 15mg step size across the range, easy to halve or double.
What to know before you buy
- Almost everything here is full spectrum and carries a small amount of THC. It is not the right choice if you are drug tested.
- The CBD:CBN gummy jar figures are total cannabinoids, CBD and CBN together, not CBD alone.
- The balm has no menthol or scent, so you feel nothing when you apply it. That is the point, but it surprises some people.
- Part of the NuLeaf range puts hemp-derived Delta-9 THC first, in capsules and in 10mg drink shots. Those are for adults 21 and over who are comfortable with THC.
