Biosportart awarded ‘Certified CBD’ status from Banned Substances Control Group

British CBD formulator Biosportart announced today that they have achieved Banned Substances Control Group (BSCG) Certified CBD status under the finished product category for their recently launched Biosportart 2000 milligram CBD Gel product — a high-concentration CBD topical gel for professional and amateur athletes.

‘Many CBD brands claim to have legal, low, or even “zero” levels of THC, but only a select few have submitted themselves to rigorous 3rd party certification to prove it,’ said Biosportart CEO Richard O’Halloran. ‘We formulate our products for tested professionals performing at the highest level and we are extremely proud to be the first nature identical CBD product to achieve BSCG’s prestigious “Certified CBD” status.’

‘We are delighted to welcome Biosportart as a client to our illustrious roster and to share that its 2000 milligram CBD Gel product has been certified in the BSCG Certified CBD program,’ said BSCG President Oliver Catlin. ‘BSCG Certified CBD was the first broad-spectrum third-party certification program in the world for CBD products and is a unique all-in-one program that offers brands, manufacturers, and ingredient suppliers a complete compliance solution.’

The BSCG Certified CBD program checks for illegal levels of THC as well as environmental contaminants including heavy metals, pesticides, solvents and microbiological agents. To further protect consumers and athletes, the program screens for 276 drugs on the WADA Prohibited List and 220 over-the-counter, illicit, or prescription drugs, offering the broadest protection available in the industry today.

BSCG is a leading international third-party certification and testing provider offering a complete suite of certification, testing, and Good Manufacturing Practices compliance services to the sports nutrition, natural products and dietary supplement industries. BSCG was co-founded by Don H. Catlin, M.D., Director of the first anti-doping lab in the United States, started in 1982, and the longest-serving member on the International Olympic Committee (IOC) Medical Commission.
