Knowing how to read a cannabis COA helps you make informed choices about safe, quality products, and here at Evolution Health and Wellness, we believe knowledge is power! Cannabis is an agricultural product, and thorough COA testing for contaminants and potency ensures consistent safety and quality.
A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is a lab-generated report that verifies a product’s safety and potency, testing for key compounds like cannabinoids and any potential contaminants. COAs help consumers understand the purity and quality of their products.
Product testing is crucial for consumer safety. While cannabis isn’t FDA-regulated, COAs ensure harmful substances—like pesticides, heavy metals, and microbes—are screened out. Brands committed to transparency provide COAs to show exactly what’s in their products, giving you confidence in each purchase.
Understanding these components can help you find products that suit your preferences and health needs.
COAs are often linked via QR codes on product packaging or the brand’s website. Our knowledgeable staff is always ready to help interpret COA information, so feel free to ask any questions when you shop with us!
