Dr K CBD, a fresh, honest, scientific approach


The earliest record of cannabis can be traced back as far as AD 100, to a document produced in China. It suggests cannabis as a treatment for more than a hundred ailments. After spreading westward into ancient India, its so-called medicinal properties were further realised as it was used to treat pain, inflammation, anxiety and epilepsy

ast forward to 2021, which has seen an explosion in the CBD market, with a diverse array of


products now available. ‘CBD’ stands for ‘cannabidiol’, one


of the naturally occurring cannab- inoids, which is found in the hemp variety of the cannabis plant. Tis is extracted without the inclusion of THC (the psychoactive component associated with ‘getting high’). A survey conducted YouGov


that 11% of UK adults (approximately million


people) have


tried CBD. Worryingly, a report by

sector. His frustration with the


constraints of conventional medicine and the lack of clarity and quality assurance in the CBD market led to the development of Dr K CBD. Both Dr Karunadasa and the


company’s co-founder, Manish Patel, believe that CBD should be part of a multifaceted holistic approach to maintaining a healthy, active lifestyle. Te founders are regu- lars at charity bike rides


YOUR CHOICE, YOUR BODY — CBD DONE THE RIGHT WAY!


Te Centre for Medicinal Cannabis (checking 30 oil products) showed only 38% of the products tested were within 10% of the advertised CBD content and 38% actually had less than 50% of the advertised CBD content. One product contained 0% CBD. Navigating the veritable minefield


of products to find one that has under- gone rigorous testing is vital to deliv- ering peace of mind.


Dr K CBD, CBD done the right way Dr Karunadasa is an NHS doctor whose interests lie in preventa- tive medicine and the wellbeing


alongside the odd triathlon while practising yoga, juggling family life and working in both the NHS and the FOREX world, respectively Dr Karunadasa explains, “CBD


should only be one part of an indi- vidual’s attempt to help themselves. For


instance, we advocate exercise,


good nutrition and sleep hygiene for customers struggling with sleep. Our ethos is all about wellbeing, from the way we work to the way we want people to feel. Dr K supports the belief that mind and body are intrinsically linked and we want to help find that balance. We’re more than just a CBD company. As a brand, we respect our customer like a doctor would their patient.” Both co-founders have been


involved at every stage of devel- opment to ensure a product of the highest quality. Te hemp plants from which the CBD oil is derived are cultivated without the use of herbi- cides or pesticides. Te extraction and purification process concen- trates a number of powerful plant compounds that work synergis- tically to produce the beneficial effects. Finally, the product is rigor- ously tested by an independent ISO accredited testing laboratory. Tis ensures the final product is organic, toxin free and vegan, as well as being non-GMO and cruelty free.

Setting DR K apart Manish


Patel


explains, “It’s


uncommon to find many companies showing their ‘active CBD levels’, which are vital in understanding how much CBD is necessary. Te higher the active level, the lower the strength needed for the same results. Te industry average in the UK ranges between 40-% and 60%. Ours is 85%, so instead of choosing a 500mg oil with 50% active CBD, with Dr K, the same effect is available in our 300mg bottle, saving customers money. Not many companies disclose the active levels, but we like to be transparent and highlight this important factor.” “As a brand, we strive to behave ethi-


cally. We hold our corporate responsi- bilities seriously while also supporting charitable causes aligned to both the


company’s ethos and its customers. We’re committed to putting quality above all else and creating a commu- nity that holds its customers at the centre of everything it does.” CBD can fit into healthy lifestyle, but


doesn’t remove the need to seek profes- sional medical advice where necessary.
