The CBDC Content Process
SELECT A TOPIC
We field content ideas from our team, our readers, and our own real-life experiences.
RESEARCH
Our professional research teams conduct and compile research using case studies, legal resources, and verified medical studies.
WRITE
Completed research is passed to one of our experienced writers who crafts a well-sourced, easy to understand article.
FACT-CHECK & DISCUSS
Drafted content is shared with the team. We review it, fact-check it rigorously, and discuss to ensure a consensus that it accurately represents all currently available facts.
EDIT
Any proposed edits are made to a piece of content before it’s added to our website or shared on any social channels.
UPDATE
Content is updated on a revolving, regular schedule as available information changes.
OUR SOURCES
For information to be trustworthy, it must be backed by facts. While research is ongoing in the world of CBD, information based on early and current studies is available. When sourcing content, we rely on published medical research studies, government (.gov) and university (.edu) sites to the best of our ability. This prevents biased and/or opinion-based information from finding its way into our content.
Resources are available through links found throughout our content and footnotes. We welcome any questions from readers about where a specific piece of information came from; we are happy to provide answers. – Maybe add an image/gif that depicts how it works/what to look for.
RELEVANCY MATTERS
The world of CBD is changing rapidly. We’ve watched several states loosen restrictions on CBD and cannabis in general, where others tightened their regulations – all while the federal government lifted restrictions on hemp farming and sales.
We do our best to pay attention to these changing restrictions, as well as to new studies and information and update our content accordingly. The date a piece has most recently been modified can be found on each page.

Some visitors to CBD Central are looking for general, wellness-based information. Others are desperate for answers regarding serious clinical diagnoses.
