All Natural Way Review

All Natural Way is a Florida-based CBD brand that offers oils, sublingual sprays, and creams that combine CBD with active botanical extracts, vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. 

This certainly sounds like the brand is off to a great start, but there are some red flags we’ve encountered dealing with All Natural Way including, the ambiguous hemp source, lack of complete third-party testing, mislabelling of extract type used, and disregard for customer service. 

Mission/Charity 2/5

The brand’s mission is to “bring back natural remedies and undo the hazardous effects of chemically charged pharmaceutical drugs.” We’re always wary of brands that boast too much about its products health benefits — it’s actually against FDA standards to claim any health benefits for CBD products. 

All Natural Way also says it collaborates with the Universidad De Equina De Colombia for medical cannabis research, but we couldn’t find a university existing with that name.

Product Range 5/5

All Natural Way offers four potencies of CBD oil (even a variation for pets), five different CBD sprays, and two topical creams. We consider this a decent range and have no complaints in this department.

Innovation 2/5

We wanted to like this company, but it’s “pharmacist-formulated” products fall short of impressive. While the CBD sprays do include other therapeutic compounds, they’re added in such negligible amounts, that it doesn’t add much benefit to the overall formulation. 

Safety 1/5

All Natural Way is severely lacking in quality control standards that ensures their products are safe and effective. There is only one test result (from 2018) available for each product, and that’s the cannabinoid profile and potency. It shows that the products are made with CBD isolate — not full-spectrum as labeled. 

Customer Service 1/5

We were never able to get ahold of All Natural Way to answer our questions about the quality concerns.

The return policy isn’t the greatest either. You have 30 days to change your mind about the product you ordered, but they only grant refunds or exchanges on unopened and unused products. The cost of shipping the return will also come out of your pocket.

About The Company: All Natural Way

All Natural Way is a Florida-based CBD company with a focus on natural remedies to undo the “hazardous effects of chemically charged pharmaceutical drugs.” Entrepreneurs, German Espitia and Lee Lefkowitz set out to do this in 2014 by sourcing Colombian-grown hemp and combining the medicinal benefits of CBD with the power of other botanicals and supplements. 

According to the website, All Natural Way employs a dedicated team of scientists and geneticists to oversee the hemp and even has a team of pharmacists to formulate its products. 

We wanted to like this company — it’s one of the few that creates unique formulations of CBD with a targeted purpose — but there were too many ambiguities and inconsistencies about All Natural Way that came up in our research that ultimately led to this negative review.

Where Does All Natural Way Source Its Hemp?

All Natural Way’s hemp sourcing is one of the most significant factors in this negative review. On its website, it claims to source its hemp crops from family farms outside Medellin, Colombia. These crops are said to be grown using organic practices, are nourished with mountain spring water, and grow in an optimal climate. 

The problem is, All Natural Way lacks any sort of testing and certifications to back this up. 

A quality hemp source is the foundation of any decent product. Because hemp is a bioaccumulator, the plants absorb nutrients and contaminants in its soil faster than it can break them down. This means if the hemp is grown in a poor environment, you can end up with nasty pesticides, heavy metals, or microbes in your extract, which would negate the potential benefits of CBD. 

While we’re sure there are plenty of excellent hemp farms in Colombia, we’re left wondering why an American CBD company that only sells to US customers sources its hemp outside the states — if not for a cheaper supply. The United States produced over 230,000 acres of hemp crops and is quickly becoming a leader in hemp production with high standards in agricultural quality. 

We would feel a lot better about All Natural Way’s hemp source if they showed organic certifications and that their extract has been tested for contaminants. We’ve reached out to the brand on several occasions, but our emails have gone unanswered.

1. CBD Topicals

A) All Natural Way CBD Muscle & Joint Pain Relief Cream

The Muscle and Joint formula combines 500 mg of CBD with a warming and cooling cream formula for overexerted muscles and arthritic joints. It costs $34.99 for a 30 mL bottle with 500 mg of CBD isolate (it advertises full-spectrum on the website). 

B) All Natural Way CBD Face Cream

The CBD Face Cream is offered as an alternative to chemically infused cosmetics that can “damage the face tissue.” All Natural Way says this cream hydrates the skin and prevents breakouts thanks to the anti-inflammatory effects of CBD and nourishing oils. This “spa-treatment in a bottle” retails for $59.95 for 30 mL of product with 200 mg of CBD.

Cost & Potency Breakdown of All Natural Way CBD Topicals:

Product Name Total CBD Total Volume Total Price CBD Potency Cost Per mg CBD
All Natural Way CBD Muscle & Joint Relief Cream 500 mg 30 mL $49.99  16.6 mg/mL $0.09
All Natural Way CBD Face Cream 200 mg 30 mL $59.99  6.6 mg/mL $0.29

2. Sublingual CBD Sprays

A) Energy CBD Spray

The Energy Spray promises to increase energy levels by “detoxifying the body” and addressing nutritional deficiencies. It contains 500 mg of CBD, vitamin B12, caffeine extract, glucuronolactone, and resveratrol. 

Unless you have a vitamin B12 deficiency, you’re better off with a well-rounded multivitamin at the steep price of $69.99 per bottle. The caffeine content in this formula is about taking two sips of coffee per dose — it’s just not going to cut it as an energy spray in our books.

Cost & Potency Breakdown of All Natural Way CBD Energy Spray

Product Name Total CBD Total Volume Total Cost  CBD Potency Cost Per mg CBD
Energy CBD Spray 500 mg 30 mL $69.99   16.6 mg/mL $0.13

B) Pain Relief CBD Spray

While CBD is an effective pain relief and anti-inflammatory compound, you’ll get the most benefits from larger doses. This product has 500 mg of CBD and trace amounts of joint strengthening compounds, MSM and hydrolyzed collagen.

Product Name Total CBD Total Volume Total Cost  CBD Potency Cost Per mg CBD
Pain Relief CBD Spray 500 mg 30 mL $74.99  16.6 mg/mL $0.14

C) Weight Loss CBD Spray

This spray combines 500 mg of CBD with garcinia cambogia extract. The aim here is to suppress the appetite and increase the metabolism for a chemical-free weight loss support supplement.

Product Name Total CBD Total Volume Total Cost  CBD Potency Cost Per mg CBD
Weight Loss CBD Spray 500 mg 30 mL $69.99 16.6 mg/mL $0.13

D) Anti-Stress CBD Spray

Experiencing high stress over a period of time can have serious consequences on your health. The Anti-Stress CBD spray is made with CBD, ashwagandha extract, GABA, and vitamin B12 to help manage stress levels. 

This would be a much more impressive product if the additional stress-fighting compounds were in larger doses in the formula for the body to feel its effects.

Cost & Potency Breakdown of All Natural Way CBD Anti-Stress Spray

Product Name Total CBD Total Volume Total Cost  CBD Potency Cost Per mg CBD
Anti-Stress CBD Spray 500 mg 30 mL $79.99 16.6 mg/mL $0.15

E) Sleep CBD Spray

The Sleep CBD Spray is a blend of 500 mg of CBD isolate, GABA, valerian root, melatonin, and magnesium gluconate to help combat insomnia. CBD and melatonin is a winning combination for sleep support.

Out of all the sleep sprays in All Natural Way’s collection, this was the best — but that’s only because there’s an appropriate ratio of melatonin and CBD towards the product’s purpose. There are still better sleep-aid products on the market at the $70 price point.

3. CBD Oils & Tinctures

All Natural Way CBD Oils

All Natural Way offers a decent potency range of CBD oils — in 350 mg, 500 mg, 1000 mg, and 1500 mg potencies — all of which contain the same four ingredients: CBD extract, MCT coconut oil, peppermint flavor, and stevia leaf extract.

Cost & Potency Breakdown of All Natural Way CBD Oils

All Natural Way CBD Oil — 1000 mg 1000 mg 30 mL $140.99 33.3 mg/mL $0.14
All Natural Way CBD Oil — 1500 mg 1500 mg 30 mL $199.99 50 mg/mL $0.13

What Does All Natural Way Do Well?

To be frank, we’re not big fans of this brand. If we did have to say one thing All Natural Way does well it’s in coming up with complementing compounds with CBD for more targeted CBD supplementing. 

The formulas were off to a great start. The problem is most of the complementing compounds are in too small of doses. 

For example, the recommended dose of ashwagandha extract is 500 – 600 mg per day and the Anti-Stress spray only has 2 mg per dose.

Where Can All Natural Way Improve?

1. Hemp Sourcing Transparency and Safety

If All Natural Way were transparent about its hemp source, we’d be willing to trust this company. But as it stands, there are no verifications available that confirm that the extracts are free from contamination. 

Furthermore, its products are labeled to contain full-spectrum CBD extract for compounding benefits from hemp’s natural cannabinoids and terpenes. However, the only tests provided on the website, only verifies the cannabinoid potency and profile, showing the products only contain CBD. 

The CoA is also from 2018. We’re curious as to whether the products are from 2018 or if All Natural Way is reluctant to update its test results. We’ll never know because they won’t get back to our emails. 

2. Have Appropriate Complementary Ingredient Doses

We’ve already mentioned this above, but if All Natural Way bothered to include the botanical extracts, vitamins, and minerals in reasonable doses, its customers might find its products more effective. 

3. Responsive Customer Service

Online shopping is easier than ever before, and with so many CBD brands only operating online, many understand the importance of providing quality service as you would get in-store to keep customers happy. 

We haven’t been able to get ahold of All Natural Way to answer any of our questions pertaining to their products which is never a good sign.

Safety & Third-Party Testing

All Natural Way claims to batch test for ingredients and potency for all its products. It does the bare minimum of showing the cannabinoid and potency report of its extracts. Like we said earlier, the extracts aren’t full-spectrum as advertised.

On top of this, these tests are from 2018. So, either the products aren’t moving fast enough off their shelves, or these tests are old and All Natural Way doesn’t bother to get new testing done for its products. 

We consider complete lab testing to include the following reports: 

  • Cannabinoid profile and potency
  • Pesticides
  • Heavy Metals
  • Solvents
  • Microbials
  • Mycotoxins

All Natural Way’s Shipping & Returns

At this point, you can only purchase All Natural Way products if you live in the United States. Products are shipped via UPS and USPS. 

The return/exchange policy isn’t the greatest. You have 30-days from receiving your order to change your mind, but they’ll only accept unopened and unused products. Plus, you have to pay for the return shipping. 

Final Verdict: All Natural Way Hasn’t Justified Its Value

The price points for All Natural Way products are well within the average asking price for these types of CBD formulations — however, we don’t feel that All Natural Way deserves to sit amongst the top shelves next to  other reputable brands when it doesn’t test its hemp source, misleads about the extract type, and fails at providing reasonable customer service. 

In a new industry that’s quickly becoming saturated, you need to find ways to stand out and build a high level of trust with customers. Company transparency is a critical element missing with All Natural Way, and for that reason, we’ll pass on its products.
