We’ve had several questions about the new labeling that is starting to show up on our products. These changes are coming for good reasons but may definitely cause some confusion. Here’s a quick overview of the changes.
Concentration instead of total amount
Our old bottles all used to show the total amount of cannabinoids, such as 1000mg, 500mg, 600mg gummy bears, etc. To help users compare between products, SunMed has moved towards a ‘per unit’ type of measurement, going by milliliter or piece, depending on whether it’s a liquid or an edible. These are still the same total CBD strength, just divided by the measurement unit. Here’s a quick example breakdown of the new labels.
Remember, 30mL in each bottle, so you would multiply the new value x 30 for the total. For edibles, simply multiply the new value by the jar count.
| Old Value | New Value |
| 1000mg CBD Oil | 33mg PER mL |
| 750 Gummy Bears | 25mg per piece (30 count) |
| 500mg CBD Oil | 17mg PER mL |
| 2500mg Peach & Watermelon Rings | 25mg per piece (150 count) |
Hemp Supplement & Hemp Extract
Old bottles used to show the word ‘Tincture’ or ‘CBD.’ While the contents still contain the quality CBD we love, the labelling and ingredients have changed to help better comply with advice from the government. You may see the wording ‘Hemp Supplement’ on your bottle or ‘hemp extract’ in the ingredients. Remember, we still show the tested cannabinoid content on our lab reports, and it will be a full or broad spectrum CBD in your bottle.
Marco A. Dardón says
My wife, 86 years old, is suffering severe pain in her hand and sometimes her neck. She has been suffering health problems for 29 years,
It started with insufficiency of platelets because of failure of her immune system for which she had to use medicine that contained steroids.
which ruined her liver and kidneys. She has been in dialysis for 8 years. I give her hemp oil to relieve her pain but have been at a loss with the issue of dosage.

Consider trying the topical cream on the hands or the water soluble formula internally (at least 10mg or more per dose), you might see better results with those, just remember to consult with a doctor for any prescription interactions.

What about dosage to be taken by users? I don’t see such info anywhere on the bottle
rnatural says
Good question – yes I think we have also moved away from dosage information on the back (which is ok in my opinion, as everyone’s needs are vastly different). If you used to take half dropper of 1,000mg bottle twice a day with success, you’ll take the same amount on the 33mg / mL bottle, no changes there. This label difference does encourage our customers to learn how many many mgs they take each dose, which will be more helpful for them to compare or move up to a higher strength.
