Root Bioscience Review

Root Bioscience leads with what almost sounds like fighting words when they say, “We’re a science company. Not a cannabis company trying to learn science.” And well, we love it! Meet the real deal when it comes to CBD science. This team of technicians, researchers, and farmers produce high-grade CBD raw materials and offer white-label services for various products. Their consumer brand Naternal showcases Root Bioscience’s obvious obsession with quality, nature, and science.

Root Bioscience is a hardcore CBD oil wholesaler strikingly honest and to the point. Their team of scientists and technicians along with an impressive advisory board are laser-focused on the environmental and social impact their CBD hemp production has on the world and especially the Carolinas.

Root Bioscience starts with their North Carolina hemp grown cleanly and sustainably. They specifically grow genetic strains known to be phytocannabinoid-rich (and their test results prove it!). Then, they meticulously process bulk materials to sell to CBD merchants, including CBD isolate powder, full-spectrum oils, and 0 THC broad spectrum oils. Root Bioscience also goes a step further by white labeling products like CBD topicals, tinctures, and more for merchants who don’t want to do the formulating themselves.

CEO of Root Bioscience Garrett Perdue claims his organization won’t sell any product they wouldn’t give to their own family members. And with such a high level of transparency and blunt language (check out their awesome glossary of terms), we believe them. This North Carolina company is leading the charge in CBD manufacturing in the southern US; they even spearheaded Sensible South, an organization to bring medical cannabis legal reform to the region.

Root Bioscience does right by their neighbors as well by supporting Carolina Cavalry, a grassroots nonprofit that helps people on the ground during disasters like hurricanes. Root Bioscience may be one of the most powerful examples of a CBD manufacturer investing in and giving back to their community that we’ve seen in a while.

If you check out the CoAs page on Root Bioscience, you’ll only find cannabinoid profiles and pesticide tests. However, when you go to the Naternal website — their consumer brand — you’ll find that each and every SKU not only has potency results, but also independent tests for residual solvents, microbiological impurities, pesticides, and heavy metals. Yay for the Safety Badge!

So, if you want to buy Root BioScience’s cannabinoid-rich and immaculately processed CBD products, you’ll have to either buy from them in bulk/wholesale or go through the Naternal product line; a link is provided on the website.

Naternal offers CBD oil tinctures in THC-free broad-spectrum and full-spectrum, an all-natural CBD salve, and CBD pet tinctures. We love that the cannabinoid profiles, even on the broad spectrum tinctures, are stacked with a wide variety of cannabinoids. And we really love that Naternal uses simple and all-natural ingredients.

Bottom Line – Root Bioscience is in a class all their own when it comes to scientifically sound, sustainable, and honest CBD manufacturing. Their consumer brand Naternal hits all the right marks with us, too.
