About the Company:\nCannuka<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cannuka was founded by Michael Bumgarner,\nborn and raised on a rural farm in Ohio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bumgarner became interested in the health\nbenefits of cannabis and specifically one of its non-psychoactive cannabinoids,\nCBD. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cofounder of Cannuka is Bumgarner\u2019s\nwife, Kelly, who lends her skills as a dermatologist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michael Bumgarner\u2019s passion for CBD\ntogether with his wife\u2019s expertise on all things dermatology is what spawned\nthe Cannuka brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where Does Cannuka\nSource its Hemp?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cannuka makes no mention of the hemp source\non their website. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

CBD isolate is used to formulate these\nproducts and it\u2019s likely that the company is partnered with CBD isolate\nmanufacturers. The company doesn\u2019t appear to make their own extracts, instead,\nthey buy it from another manufacturer. This isn\u2019t uncommon in the industry but\nimportant to note nonetheless.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because CBD is isolated, rather than\nextracted in a full-spectrum manner, the source of hemp might not be of any\nimportance (other than for economical or political reasons). In any case, the\ncompany offers a certificate of analysis (COA) which provides information about\npesticide and heavy metal content, as well as residual solvents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only problem is the company doesn\u2019t\noffer unbiased third-party tests \u2014 only the testing done in-house.\nIt\u2019s much better for companies to offer tests done by independent labs to\nensure full transparency of their findings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cannuka Products<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cannuka manufactures an extensive range of\nskincare products ranging from eye balm to lip balm to after-sun care. Prices\nare steep considering the ingredients used and CBD potency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s quite a lot of inconsistencies in\nCannuka\u2019s products in terms of CBD potency and cost per mg CBD. On some\nproducts, it\u2019s over $2 per mg of CBD, while in others it is less than 30 c.\nIt\u2019s obvious that CBD isn\u2019t at the heart of what consumers are paying for when\nthey purchase Cannuka products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
