About Medterra
Medterra built its catalog around CBD isolate, and that one decision explains most of the brand. Isolate is cannabidiol on its own: no THC, no minor cannabinoids, no terpenes. The Daily Relief capsules, the Sleep Tight gummies and both pet tinctures are isolate, which is why they can be sold as THC-free rather than as low-THC.
Medterra is certified by the U.S. Hemp Authority, a voluntary audit program that checks how the hemp is grown, processed and labeled. It costs money and it means an outside body looks at the paperwork, which matters more in an unregulated category than another logo on the box.
The second half of the catalog is the opposite. Mood Boost, Unwind, Deep Sleep and Sound Asleep are full spectrum gummies with a declared amount of hemp-derived Delta-9 and a named functional ingredient alongside it: 100mg of L-Theanine, 30mg of saffron extract, 3mg of melatonin, published per gummy.
Pros and cons
What we like
- THC-free means THC-free here. Isolate contains none, so there is no trace to explain to an employer.
- Certified by the U.S. Hemp Authority, which few brands of any size bother to do.
- Pet products are a real line, not an afterthought: two tinctures for dogs and cats, unflavored or chicken, in 300mg and 750mg.
What to know before you buy
- Isolate has no entourage compounds. If you want full spectrum for everyday use, Medterra only offers it in the THC gummies.
- Those gummies carry 5mg of Delta-9 each, a real dose and not a trace: an evening product, not a daily supplement.
- Sound Asleep and the Joint Support pet chews do not publish how many pieces are in a pack, so there is no way to work out the cost per milligram.
- The Rapid Recovery cream and roll-on work through menthol, camphor and arnica as much as through CBD.
- The pet chews are peanut butter flavored, which rules them out for a household avoiding peanuts.
