Women around the world have been looking for a more natural solution to managing the symptoms of menopause. One such prospect could be CBD, largely due to its influence on the endocannabinoid system (ECS). Before we take a look at the relationship between the ECS and menopause, let’s first understand what causes menopause.
Menopause signifies a shift in a woman’s levels of oestrogen and progesterone. As a result, periods will stop, and getting pregnant naturally is no longer an option. Don’t worry though, this is a natural part of getting older, and something every woman goes through. The problem with menopause is that, while it may be a natural process, that doesn’t make the symptoms any more comfortable to live with. For some women, hot flashes, night sweats, difficulty sleeping, low mood, and pain during sex can last for up to fourteen years.
Conventional treatments for symptoms of menopause include hormone replacement therapy (HRT), counselling, and adjustments to diet or exercise regime. The difficulty is that because symptoms persist for years, medication like HRT can take its toll on the body and inflict several side effects.
Typically, menopause affects women aged 45–55, but it can occur earlier or later than this timeframe. As we mentioned above, menopause is brought about by a change in the body’s hormone levels. From the mid-thirties, a woman’s oestrogen levels start to decline, signifying the start of perimenopause. The steady decline in oestrogen is what leads to many of the symptoms associated with menopause. Symptoms can continue past menopause into the postmenopausal period, but they are usually less severe than during perimenopause.
Just by listing the symptoms of menopause, it is easy to see the enormous impact on a woman’s quality of life. Many of us are grouchy or feel down after one night of bad sleep, but imagine the same issues persisting for years. Hot flashes can come at the worst time, making it difficult to concentrate, and painful sex puts a strain on any relationship. Over the centuries, women have just had to grin and bear the symptoms of menopause, but thanks to ongoing research, CBD may be the natural solution to making symptoms easier to live with.
CBD is believed to be beneficial because of the interactions it has with the ECS and its activation of certain enzymes and receptors. It does not tackle menopause directly, but instead may influence several menopausal symptoms.
The extremely common “hot flashes” experienced during menopause represent the body’s inability to regulate temperature correctly. Previously, studies have shown that the endocannabinoid anandamide (AEA) may play a part in our brain’s ability to regulate temperature. Unfortunately, AEA is quickly broken down in the body by an enzyme called FAAH. CBD, however, has been shown to block the production of FAAH, allowing enhanced signalling of anandamide.
A loss of bone density is another symptom of menopause, which, if left unchecked, can lead to osteoporosis. This time, a study published on ScienceDirect outlined a relationship between CB receptors and TRPV1 channels. They found that patients with osteoporosis had increased TRPV1 channel expression, which leads to “massive overexpression of CB2 receptors”. Their findings not only confirmed the role of the endocannabinoid system in osteoporosis, but they point to a potential treatment with CBD. A supporting study found that CBD “is reported to be most potent at influencing TRPV1 and TRPM8 channels. By regulating TRPV channels using CBD, it is possible that the overexpression found in osteoporosis patients could be reduced, and new therapies introduced as a result”.
Invoking the studies listed above, and CBD’s proposed anxiolytic effects, it is understandable why the compound is being explored as a therapeutic treatment for the symptoms of menopause. CBD may be able to support the body on multiple fronts—thanks to its interaction with the ECS—with a fraction of the side effects associated with HRT medications. Considering menopause is a natural part of getting older, it makes sense that future treatments look to natural alternatives.
Read MoreI am going to be reviewing another set of wonderful JustCBD products that were sent to me from the Orange State: CBD Peach Rings, CBD Sugar-Free Gummies, CBD Quinoa Bits, Hemp Soap and CBD Pain Relief Gel.
As you will have no doubt guessed, JustCBD is my favourite CBD brand on the market. JustCBD is one of the most successful CBD companies in the world that tailors exceptionally well across the entire CBD product spectrum: CBD Gummies, CBD Edibles, CBD Vape Pens, Full Spectrum CBD Tincture, Sugar Free CBD Gummies, CBD Protein Bars, CBD Dried Fruit, CBD Bath Bombs & Soap, CBD Vape Cartridges, CBD Oil Tincture, CBD Honey Sticks & Coconut Oil, CBD Isolate, CBD Vape Eliquid, CBD for Pets, CBD Pain Cream. JustCBD brand is very modern, sleek, classy and above all, quality. Unlike other smaller CBD companies, JustCBD not only has a great brand but also great infrastructure and corporate structure that allows it to source CBD from the best and most exclusive hemp growers and hemp farms as well as invest significant monies into CBD extraction and production processes. JustCBD is exploding the internet with its increasing popularity with celebrities such as Flo Rida, artists and famous Instagram influencers. JustCBD has taken the recent CBD Exhibitions in Las Vegas and Medellin, Columbia by storm.
As you will no doubt be aware, there are hundreds of CBD brands that are using white label CBD companies and therefore, there is not much else that sets those brands apart other than the branding and nice labels. However, JustCBD really stands out to me because its products produce a very calming and positive sensation that makes me feel happy, mildly euphoric and very chilled out and collected in the sense that I just feel good in the moment. The nice thing about JustCBD is that I can use the CBD products whilst working or relaxing and at almost any time of the day. I have found a lot of the brands to be very binary in the sense that their CBD had very specific effects: made me sleepy, collected, sombre, etc. JustCBD products contain CBD that has very versatile effects depending on what I am doing. If I am working, it helps to increase my productivity and reduce the amount of stress I am facing. If I am chilling (listening to music for example), I just feel good and live in the moment. If I am tired and want to get a good night’s sleep, JustCBD helps me to fall asleep and have a good night’s sleep. When I get up, I feel especially energetic which was not the case when I was consuming CBD products from other brands.
Without any further ado, I am going to go into the reviews of this month’s JustCBD products.
Before I go into the review, here is what JustCBD has to say about its Bath and Soap range:
Take relaxation to the extreme with a bath enhanced by the healing benefits of CBD. Our CBD bath bombs infuse bath water with therapeutic elixirs and oils to help you feel refreshed, rejuvenated, and revived following a soak. Bathe after a long day to relieve stress and melt your worries away. Destress and unwind any day – anytime.

Drop one in and let the fizz take control. The essential oils used to create these skin-loving CBD bath bomb fizzers are slowly released with bubbles to beautify, soothe, and condition the skin back to health.
We carry our bestselling CBD bath bombs in 6 variations, each inspired by a different mood and designed to deliver a relaxing ambiance.

Our bath bombs serve as topical solutions for those looking to medicate with the healing powers of cannabinoids. No THC – Just CBD.
This month, I am going to be reviewing the Flower Power Hemp Soap from JustCBD. The Flower Power Hemp Soap from JustCBD comes in a very luxurious cardboard packaging just as soap should with bright and cheerful 1970s flower motifs that remind me of the hippy era, music festivals, campign, camper vans (that are now worth a fortune!), peace, love and of course cannabis! This hemp soap smells of an extremely refreshing violet bouquet that almost magically catapults you in a fragrant royal garden somewhere in Kent. I find used this soap for hands, face and body and I feel that it has a slightly sharp and energising edge to the smell which is very awakening and refreshing. I have used this soap for several days in a row. During this time, I had a slight injury to my lower thumb as a result of lifting weights. The pain became quite unbearable to the extent where I could not lift heavier weights. Whilst using this hemp soap, I have noticed very good improvements as the pain began to subside and the pain became less acute. After about a week, the pain is almost gone. This goes to highlight that CBD products are extremely beneficial and can be employed in all elements of our lives: Hemp soap is another way of consuming CBD.
Cocoa Quinoa Bites make ideal gifts for friends, family and lovers throughout the year. Not only can this chocolate delight satisfy your special someone’s taste buds, stress tends to fade away and relaxation becomes easy. Both the gift giver and the recipient can easily enjoy the many benefits of the powerful CBD treats.

These crunchy bite-size pieces supply that bittersweet chocolate taste with a hint of CBD. It tastes so good you’ll forget you are eating organic and vegan CBD treats.
Each container of delicious Just Chocolate Cocoa Quinoa Bites has 250 mg of CBD with 310 calories per serving. The ingredients include chocolate liquor, panela sugar and less than 2% of industrial hemp-derived cannabidiol (CBD).

JustCBD Cocoa Quinoa Bites come in a very practical, sleek and elegant plastic container that actually looks like a meta container. On closer inspection, I could see that this is a tall plastic jar with the JustCBD label shrink-wrapped over it. The total amount of CBD per container is 250mg. On the label, JustCBD states that JustCBD Chocolate was created by the company’s award-winning Chef Michael. It is very interesting that JustCBD has a trademark on JustCBD Chocolate which goes to show that it is making new strides into the CBD chocolate market. This month, I reviewed a lot of CBD chocolates and it dawned on me that CBD infused chocolate is a great way of consuming CBD products and transgressing the taboos and cannabis connotations with CBD. Everyone loves chocolate and there is no better way to consume CBD than through crunchy cocoa quinoa bites with air airy texture and delicious chocolate. As I have mentioned in my review of other CBD chocolate brands, it would be a good idea for JustCBD to showcase its Chef Michael on the website and also through a picture at the back of the container. As a consumer, I would be very curious to know who founded the JustCBD Chocolate division.
It is stated that each container contains about 65% cocoa which is spot on. JustCBD Cocoa Quinoa Bites come in “bite size” squares that are very easy to consume. I especially enjoyed eating JustCBD Cocoa Quinoa Bites with my tea and coffee. The taste of these majestic JustCBD Cocoa Quinoa Bites will satisfy even the most discriminating chocolate and CBD connoisseurs. I really like the fact that JustCBD has included a QR code for the lab results. This really helps with the transparency side of things and building trust with consumers.
It’s almost Springtime 2020. That means it is a perfect time to feel rejuvenated and use CBD Gummies. As the days get longer, the flowers bloom and trees grow green.

Happy Face or Emoji Face – JustCBD CBD happy face emoji gummies are a perfect way to express yourself.
In this review, I am going to be taking a closer look at JustCBD CBD peach rings. JustCBD CBD peach rings come inside a modern plastic container with a screw on lid. The CBD peach rings come in very mesmerising pastel peach and sunshine yellow tropical colours that represent the very best of Orange State CBD and its life. The peach rings are coated in sugar and taste just like a sweet and ripe tropical peach with a hint of cream. I find this flavour to be very moreish. JustCBD CBD peach rings come with a total of 500mg CBD and a jar contain approximately 25 CBD peach rings. Two peach rings make me feel extremely mellowed out, happy and very calm all round. Having tried Raw Gummies earlier this week, I can confidently say that Florida is the number one state for CBD just as California was for vaping. Everyone remebers the top premium USA e-liquid brands from California.
Do you get hungry at work, and perhaps a little grouchy? Does your belly growl just before bed? If so, it is time to rely on an all-natural snack that won’t hurt your diet. What you want is JustCBD sugar free CBD gummies. After all, they are quick and easy to consume CBD gummies without all the calories.

I find JustCBD’s sugar free hemp gummies to be very sweet and quite frankly, I could not really tell the different between sugar and sugar-free CBD gummies. JustCBD CBD gummies are extremely moreish and I usually like to have about 3 gummies in one go to get my dose of CBD. The gummy bears taste very nice and the JustCBD hemp has a very plesant and calming effect that complements all forms of activities.

When I applied the CBD gel to my slightly sprained thumb, I immediately felt a very cool sensation taking over the affected area. JustCBD Fast Relief CBD Gel not only contains CBD but also other useful herb oils such as osmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Oil, Thymus Vulgaris (Thyme) Oil, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil that combine with CBD to produce a fast-acting effect.

I now understand why this is a fast relief CBD gel: it gets to work right away and you can actually feel it work its way into the root of the pain.

In this CBD review, I will be tasting and reviewing CannasseursUK CBD Chocolates – Full ReviewIn this CBD review, I will be tasting and reviewing. In this review, I will be sharing my thoughts about 100gr Premium CBD Belgian Chocolate Bar [Indica], 100gr Premium CBD Belgian Chocolate Bar [Sativa], 40gr Premium CBD Belgian Chocolate Bar [Sativa], 40gr Premium CBD Belgian Chocolate Bar [Indica] and CBD Belgian Hot Chocolate Stirrers [Sativa] (Packs of 3).
Before, I go into the full review of CannasseursUK CBD Chocolates, I would like to talk about the CannasseursUK CBD brand. On the about us section on CannasseursUK’s website, it is stated that CannasseursUK has been invovled in advocating for the benefits of marijuana and CBD and has been started by a group of friends. I really like this element because friendship and a genuine commitment to help others with the benefits of CBD are very important facets of our modern society and also reflects the underlying objectives of CBD: to help people with anxiety and human interaction. The guys at CannasseursUK have been exceptionally friendly and business-minded from my very first interaction with them.
Before we go into the individual product reviews, it is important to look at the distinction between different types of CBD.
1000mg 16.4% CBD Indica Whole Plant Extract infused with 99 grams Premium Belgian Chocolate. Available in Dark, Milk and White chocolate please select below.
“Our CBD produced through critical CO2 extractions and as well as great CBD levels, this product contains over 75 cannabidoids, terpenoids and terpenes”. Cannabidiol is not an addictive substance, has no side effects and its is not possible to overdose on CBD. 100% Organic CBD. 2 squares of chocolate a day means the bar will last roughly 2 weeks. 41.6mg of Whole Plant Extract per square. 6.83mg of pure CBD per square. Contains less than 0.05% THC
This Indica CBD Belgian Chocolate comes in a very luxurious yet practical packaging that is very suggestive of an artisan CBD brand. When shopping, you may have noticed how the standard chocolate is wrapped in a standard paper or plastic wrapper whislt chocolate from upmarket artisan chocolate brands is always handwrapped with ribbons and fancy wrappers. The Indica CBD Belgian Chocolate packaging comes in a royal moss green and sumptuous gold elements.
Indica CBD Belgian Chocolate is extremely velvety and has a very pleasant hemp/herbal smell. The chocolate is extremely rich and velvety. It is a dark chocolate so you may find it not as sweet as milk chocolate. I had about 6 cubes of chocolate at a time and admittedly, it made me feel pleasantly relaxed but not too relaxed so as not to want to do anything. This chocolate is perfect whilst working as it will give you a nice dose of sugar and CBD without clouding your judgment. This chocolate is something you would have with your traditional English tea at a royal country home!
![100gr Premium CBD Belgian Chocolate Bar [Sativa]](https://cbdlifemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/4EF92531-BF56-4275-B0EA-764E6F3E1B8E-2-768x1024.jpg)
This Sativa CBD Belgian Chocolate Bar is definitely one of my favourites. A Cannabis Sativa whole plant extract from CO2 extraction, this offers the full range of cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids and phenols. This extract contains not only 14% CBD, but also other cannabinoids, primarily CBC, CBG and CBN. The most frequently occurring terpenes this CBD extract are myrcene, beta-caryophyllene, terpinols, linalool, alpha-pinenes, beta-pinenes, trans-alpha-bergamots and alpha-humulene. This Sativa CBD Belgian Chocolate is 99% Belgian chocolate and is infused with Sativa CBD extract. This chocolate is extremely velvety, rich and moreish. When I first tried the chocolate, it reminded me of an artisan chocolatier in Knightsbridge. After working my way through half of this chocolate bar, I began to feel similarities with Galaxy chocolate. Sativa appears to have a milder hemp smell than its Indica counterpart. There is a technical explanation for this. When eating this chocolate, I get very mild and subdued sensations of hemp taste, but this does not overpower the sweet and chocolatey taste. The chocolate bar is very nicely packaged and would make a perfect gift to someone who enjoys chocolate and could benefit from CBD. A good way about consuming CBD in an edible form is to encourage people to add CBD to their everyday lives. I have noticed that a lot of people are still very apprehensive about taking CBD products due to their connotations with Cannabis. However, by infusing CBD into everyday products such as CBD chocolate and other CBD edibles, it is a perfect way of getting people to consume CBD.
![40gr Premium CBD Belgian Chocolate Bar [Sativa]](https://cbdlifemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/0747C469-EC0F-434B-9AF0-0ED81EF532DC-1-768x1024.jpg)
Sativa CBD Belgian Chocolate along with other chocolates are made by the firm’s Chocolatier Hendrick. It would be nice if the company could add a blurb about Chocolatier Hendrick on the about us section or even add his photo at the back of the chocolate bar. You may no doubt recall the Lindt UK tv advert with the master chocolatier. Indeed, by featuring a chocolatier in an ad, it helps for the brand to establish a better relationship with the consumer. I would recommend to the company to add a picture and a blurb about their chocolatier at the back of their CBD chocolate bars. The Dark Mint Sativa comes very close to After 8 mints. Sativa CBD Belgian Chocolate strikes me as a very luxurious and middle class chocolate that is best enjoyed with traditional English tea. For this reason, I think that Sativa CBD Belgian Chocolate is one of the best way for elderly people to benefit from CBD. Sativa CBD Belgian Chocolate comes inside a thin cardboard packaging with shades of mint green and elements of royal gold. I found this chocolate to be very refreshing and a classic choice when it comes to CBD edibles.
![40gr Premium CBD Belgian Chocolate Bar [Indica]](https://cbdlifemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/D6FDCF8C-00DC-4C5D-A66F-AF281FF640A0-1024x1024.jpg)
Indica CBD Belgian Chocolate Bar ( Contains 100mg of Indica Dominant 16.4% CBD whole plant extract infused into 40gr of premium Belgian chocolate. 16.4mg pure CBD per bar. 1.64mg CBD per square.) comes in a thin cardboard packaging with a combination of orange and gold colours. This dark chocolate goes very well with an orange flavour and remind me of Terry’s Chocolate Orange. The quality of the chocolate is second to none. When tasting this chocolate for the very first time, I could tell the quality of the chocolate right away: it is smooth, velvety and tastes like Belgian chocolate.
![CBD Belgian Hot Chocolate Stirrers [Sativa] (Packs of 3)](https://cbdlifemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/B93FEB3B-4650-4A90-B768-08E29F4E2907-768x1024.jpg)
These CBD Belgian Hot Chocolate Stirrers are neatly wrapped up in plastic and gracefully tied together with a ribbon. The chocolate sits on top of a wooden stick. I tried to eat this CBD Belgian Hot Chocolate Stirrer without dipping it into hot chocolate. The chocolate is very hard to bite into and I would not recommend it. I made myself a cup of hot chocolate and dipped the CBD Belgian Hot Chocolate Stirrer for about 5 seconds. The chocolate top began to melt and when I eagerly sucked onto it, I got a very nice layer of warm, velvety and rich Belgian chocolate that that reminded me of a Nutella-based dessert. The entire CBD Belgian Hot Chocolate Stirrer lasted for about 10 good licks and dips and is a perfect accompaniment to any night in with a good movie, pajamas and a hot chocolate. Unlike the other CBD chocolate, this CBD Belgian Hot Chocolate Stirrer did not seem to have any hemp smell to it and tasted just like Belgian hot chocolate would.
Overall, I am very impressed with the CannasseursUK CBD Chocolates. Initially, I thought that this was a CBD chocolate company only seeing that I was sent only the chocolates. However, later, I saw that this CBD company also offers a range of other CBD products. Perhaps it is a good thing but I would have done that on a separate site because CannaseursUK is a “chocolate” only company. This is not to say that the company should not offer any other CBD products, but rather that it should position itself as a CBD Chocolate brand. Perhaps the company has a thing or two to learn from Raw Gummies, a Florida CBD company that specialises in making extremely quality CBD gummies. The packaging of all the chocolates is very luxurious and conservative with all the elements of an artisan brand. The chocolate quality is unforgivably good and is a testament to the company’s quality CBD suppliers and its master chocolatier. I would like to see more of the company’s chocolatier as I see him as a figure that is at the forefront of the brand. It is great to see the founders of the company on the website and it would be equally as great to see the chocolatier at the back of the chocolates. CannasseursUK mention that their Hemp/CBD is sourced from a family from Holland that has been growing hemp for over 20 years. This shows that the company is working with experienced hemp growers and this is reflected in the quality of its CBD chocolates. The effect of CBD is very covert. The chocolates tasted very much like quality Belgian chocolates should without too much of a hint of hemp or CBD. The chocolate does have a slight “hempy” smell which is very plesant and does not overpower the taste of chocolate.

Raw Gummies products are made using the richest Full Spectrum CBD Oil available. Unlike many other CBD companies who claim to have “broad spectrum” and use CBD Isolates, Raw Gummies products contain a complete phytocannabinoid spectrum packed with beneficial terpenes and flavonoids.
Many of Raw Gummies competitors purchase their CBD from China and other sources with loose regulatory requirements. Raw Gummies CBD is dual sourced from family-owned hemp farms in Colorado and Kentucky to maintain reliable and steady supply.
Raw Gummies believe in results. Compare Raw Gummies gummies to other CBD products and you’ll instantly see why they’re different.
Raw Gummies is your best source for the highest quality CBD gummy bears and candies. Based in Miami, Florida, Raw Gummies made sure to give honor to their tropical home by specializing in tropical flavors. Raw Gummies are dedicated to providing you with the highest quality, most affordable CBD gummies on the market.
Raw Gummies CBD products are legal in all 50 states and can be used at any time of the day!
Raw Gummies CBD Gummy Sweets come inside a small plastic jar with a very trendy and rebel-styled label. On the top of the plastic jar lid we have a QR code with the words “Lab Tested CBD Inside”. This is a very good thing to have at the top because these CBD gummy bears smell of real marijuana and it is therefore good to have this label in order to reassure consumers that the actual CBD gummies are almost THC free. The packaging is very clearly labelled and has all the relevant information such as the amount of CBD per CBD sweets, the weight of the container and the amount of CBD in all CBD sweets. The CBD company name “Raw Gummies” is accompanies by a slogan “not your average full spectrum gummy”. I personally think that the name of the CBD gummies epytomises the brand extremely well. One thing I have noticed is that these CBD gummies are definitely unlike any other CBD gummy bears because they smell and intially taste of REAL marijuana. This may be due to the fact that Raw Gummies products contain a complete phytocannabinoid spectrum packed with beneficial terpenes and flavonoids and that their CBD is dual sourced from family-owned hemp farms in Colorado and Kentucky. I think that these two aspects are very important aspects that determine the quality of a CBD brand. As you are no doubt aware, there are a lot of white label CBD gummy bears and so, other than the branding, there is not much that stands those CBD gummy bears apart. The fact that Raw Gummies CBD sweets are made using family-owner CBD farms across two states and that it uses complete phytocannabinoid spectrum packed with beneficial terpenes and flavonoids makes Raw Gummies a premium and quality brand. As usual, I was not surprised that Raw Gummies are based out in Miami, Florida. From all my reviews, I can confidently say that the best CBD companies are in Florida.
The Raw Gummies FULL-SPECTRUM CBD GUMMY WORMS come in original and tropical flavours in three strengths: 125, 250, 500mg of CBD. I have tried the CBD gummies in 500mg. A sweet, chewy CBD gummy worm that’s loaded with over 33mg of full-spectrum CBD. When I first saw the box, I just expected standard CBD worms that I am accusomed to. However, as soon as I opened the plastic jar, I got a very pleasant smell of quality cannabis. This made me wonder whether these gummies contain any THC. However, the “lab tested CBD inside” label at the top of the lid reassured me. The actual CBD gummy worms are covered in a nice and slightly brown mixture with sugar. This lawyer is precisely what gives these Raw CBD Gummies their distinct smell and taste. It is stated that these Raw Gummies CBD gummy worms contain corn syrup, sugar from beets, water, gelatin, citric acid, natural and vegetable oil, natural and artificial flavours, pectin derived from fruit, vegetable oil coconut, canola and carnauba leaf wax to prevent sticking.
Let’s now talk about the taste and effect. These Raw Gummies FULL-SPECTRUM CBD GUMMY WORMS taste exceptionally well. When I first take in a CBD worm, I get a very nice sugar overload with a very distinct cannabis taste. However, as the sugar coating with the phytocannabinoid spectrum packed with beneficial terpenes and flavonoids wears off about about 30 seconds, I got a very vibrant and tropical taste that reminds me of the sunny and warm Florida. I usually have about 3 to 5 gummies in one go. I took 3 CBD worms and slowly sucked on them as I listened to some liquid DnB. These CBD gummy worms are exceptionally potent and make you feel exceptionally relaxed, happy and collected. Having tried other CBD gummies, I got a very different sensation where I could not feel too much relaxation. However, Raw Gummies made me not just relaxed, but also chilled out to the extent where I wanted to sit down, disconnect and day dream. I found this sensation to be exceptionally relaxing to my body and mind. I attribute this feeling of ultimate chillaxation to the CBD firm’s unique and quality CBD suppliers and it’s unique business model.
Raw Gummies CBD Gummy Bears come in the same packaging as the sour worms so I will just skip this bit. The company’s use of very bright and vibrant colours really remind me of the Sunny Florida. The company’s rebellious font and branding reminds me of the popular video game, GTA V and specifically, Trevor Phillips and his deep South hill-billy surroundings. These CBD gummy bears come in many different flavours.
Overall, I am very impressed with the Raw Gummies brand. Initially, I thought it was going to be a very straightforward and your bog standard gummy bear brand. However, as soon as I opened the Raw Gummies CBD gummies, I was in for a very pleasant surprise. Raw Gummies surpassed all of my expectations. Raw Gummies products contain a complete phytocannabinoid spectrum packed with beneficial terpenes and flavonoids and that their CBD is dual sourced from family-owned hemp farms in Colorado and Kentucky. These two aspects define the brand for me. The quality of the Raw CBD gummies can be felt from taste to the “chillaxing” and euphoric sensation produced by the quality CBD products and all the goodies that go with it into each CBD gummy sweet. I find the firm’s branding to be extremely simple and very effective. The website is very uncluttered and contains all the salient features in a very nice, Miami-esque presentation scorching us with extreme tropical heat by the sandy beach bursting with energy and bikini bodies. I like the fact that Raw Gummies do one thing only and they do it best. Many CBD companies have diversified their CBD collections to include everything from CBD oil, CBD chocolates, CBD pain cream, CBD vape products, CBD pet treats and much more! The quality of the CBD gummy bears is a real testament to the firm’s focus and commitment.

In this review, I am going to be reviewing the following products from Orange County CBD: CBD TINCTURE 30ml (1000mg), Muscle & Joint Gel 50ml (1000mg), Small CBD Gummy Rings and Large CBD Gummy Bears. Find out my final verdict on Orange County CBD now.
Before I lunge into the reviews, I want to outline the claims made by Orange County CBD and then see how those bode with my review. Here is what Orange County CBD have to say about themselves:
Orange County CBD is a company you can trust, from our roots in Northern California we are committed to manufacturing the highest quality CBD products on the market, produced in a certified, state of the art accredited facility, the results are nothing less than exceptional. From tinctures, body care, to edibles and e-liquids, we proudly offer a range of premium CBD products, with many more products in Research and Development. Our products are made with scientific thoroughness and homegrown pride. All of our hemp is grown in the United States, with farms in Colorado, Kentucky and Northern California.
Our main goal is to provide the world with quality, affordable and natural CBD products to create a fuller, healthier and happy life. We know the medical research into CBD is an ongoing process but we are confident in the meantime we can create a harmonic relationship between customers and our products. While we make no claims that our products can cure, treat or prevent any disease or illness we think that as part of a balanced lifestyle & diet our products can assist in a healthier & cleaner living.
Hands down, one of the most important and beneficial decisions we’ve made so far is using supercritical CO2 as our extraction method. Why? Because it ensures that we are providing the purest and cleanest CBD products on the market. The supercritical CO2 process uses Carbon Dioxide that has reached its critical pressure and temperature limit as the extracting solvent. But what makes this method so special? We can’t speak for everyone, but we love this method for a couple of reasons: it has minimal environmental impact and low levels of toxicity. In fact, the FDA has declared CO2 extraction as a generally recognised as safe, (GRAS) method that is a common staple in the food industry.
Professionally trained and experienced lab technicians use special equipment to pull off supercritical C02 extraction properly. This method at its core is the process of creating pressure and temperature changes in carbon dioxide, that is then cooled and compressed at around 10,000 pounds per square inch (psi)— which is very a high compression rate. It is these extremes that propels it into the supercritical territory of being converted into a liquid and a gas. Even more, this process prevents any damage to heat-sensitive compounds like vitamins, enzymes, and cannabinoids, thus allowing consumers to receive the full range of benefits this amazing plant has to offer.
1 Extractor chamber filled with ground cannabis/hemp material
2 Pump forces pressurised CO2 at the optimum temperature, and in the liquid supercritical state (ScCO2), into the extractor chamber.
3 The supercritical carbon dioxide acts as a solvent with the cannabis, dissolving the cannabinoid compounds it contains.
4 The ScCO2 carries the cannabis oil particles past a pressure release valve into a separator.
5 In the separator, the pressure is lower and the carbon dioxide reverts back into a gas, and separates from the cannabis oil.
6 The Carbon Dioxide gas rises out of the oil and is routed back to the CO2 tank to be used again in a closed loop system.
7 The cannabis oils, waxes and resins descend in the separator where they are captured in a collection vessel.
8 The resulting substance is processed further into various products, such as pure CBD-rich cannabis oil, free of any solvents.”
Orange Conty CBD Muscle & Joint CBD Gel comes in a very compact and secure tub with a push-pump. The label is very minimalistic and very elegant, combining a light Cannabis green colour with a luxurious silver font. On the container, it is stated that “Our CBD Infused Muscle and Joint Rub provides relief to muscles and joints”. The company states that “Our CBD infused muscle + joint rub provides relief to muscles and joints. It has been formulated to stimulate and penetrate deep into the skin and combines the therapeutic benefits of eucalyptus, rosemary, cinnamon bark and black pepper in a wonderfully hydrating aloe gel.” When I first applied this CBD Infused Muscle and Joint Rub, I was very pleasantly surprised by the refreshing, subdued and slightly earthy smells of this CBD gel. The combination of eucalyptus, rosemary, cinnamon bark and black pepper presents a very pleasant smell that reminds me of a day out in a fragrant garden and certainly brings to mind the Kew Gardens in London. This CBD Infused Muscle and Joint Rub can be warn as a perfume because it smells nothing like a muscle relief gel that we are accompanied to. The smell of the CBD Infused Muscle and Joint Rub is very subtle and plesant. You can really smell it if you come into close contact with it. The Orange Conty CBD Muscle & Joint CBD Gel comes in a white cream form and soaks into the skin only after five rubs. The Orange Conty CBD Muscle & Joint CBD Gel is not sticky and is absorbed into the skin in just under a minute. I have applied this CBD gel in several places: my wrist and my lower back. Whilst at the gym last week, I slightly sprained my lower back and my wrist was hurting from all the punching on the boxing bag. I was very surprised by the positive results of Orange County CBD gel, my lower back pain virtually disappeared after two rubs and my wrist pain has soothed out. I have also applied this CBD gel on non-injured areas such as my face and hands. I immediately noticed that my skin became much softer and hydrated.
According to Orange County CBD, “These CBD infused gummies are unanimously our favorite product here at Orange County cbd . These are vegan and GMO free. Our gummies are also THC FREE. We have from 500MG to 4000MG per tub depending on size and strength . These are designed to help relax after a long day.” I was very intrigued by the fact that these are both Vegan and CBD infused gummies comprised of “Organic Cane Sugar, Organic Tapioca Syrup, Organic Grape Juice Concentrate, Pectin, Citric Acid, Colors Added (Black Carrot Juice Concentrate, Organic Turmeric, Organic Annatto), Natural Flavors, broad spectrum Hemp distillate.” As you can see, these CBD gummies are extremely natural in their ingredients. I noticed that “tapioca” is used in the production of these gummies, it is also an ingredient that is used in Bubble Tea and is meant to be very healthy for our body. The gummy bears come inside a very large and traditional sweets jar with a very vibrant yet informative label that brings to mind the colourful Californian seaside bursting with energy, vigor and aspirational bodies. Surprisingly, these CBD Gummy Bears have a very interesting texture that is very different to anything you are used to. Typical gummy bear texture tends to be very chewy and almost rubbery and would require a good number of chews to pulverise a bear into jelly shreds. Orange County CBD Gummy Bears are very soft and chew very easily: a bit like a knife goes through butter. I really enjoyed sucking on these CBD Gummy Bears for prolonged pleasure. I am not sure if you have tried bubble tea before, but these gummy bears reminded me of bubble tea topping called caramel pudding. The flavours of these CBD Gummy Bears are very classic: orange, lemon, apple. Again, the colour combination reminds me of my summer trip to sunnty Cali. These gummy bears provide 10mg of CBD per gummy bear. I ate these gummy bears about three times a day: in the morning, afternoon and before bed. These CBD Gummy Bears created a very chilled out sensation with a greater focus and concentration levels. Overall, Orange County CBD Gummies are exceptionally unique in their production techniques, appearance and ingredients.

I really enjoyed the fact that these Small CBD Gummy Rings combined several flavours in a single sweet. These Small CBD Gummy Rings are coated in organic sugar which makes for a very nice first taste. After that, the CBD sweets become extremely soft and pleasant to the mouth. I really enjoyed eating these CBD rings whilst doing some work on my laptop. I felt that these Small CBD Gummy Rings made me very relaxed and chilled out. I also felt that, unlike CBD sweets from other brands, these Small CBD Gummy Rings did not affect the sensation of my teeth or my mouth, a sensation that I would get if I consumed a lot of jelly sweets from a shop. I really praise the brand for being very environmentally friendly and socially responsible. I am not a vegan myself, but the fact that these Small CBD Gummy Rings and the CBD Gummy Bears are vegan made me think about my habits and led me to cut down my meat consumption. I think that this is a very good move towards educating people about the positive effects of veganism. As always, the label of the sweet jar is very vibrant and bursting with energy and Bikini superstars strolling on the Malibu Beach in California.
According to Orange County CBD, “Our products include components that support wellness and balance, including phytocannabinoids, flavonoids and terpenes. These full-spectrum cbd components may be able to boost your lifestyle, and are easy to use even on a day-to-day basis. Hemp-based phytochemicals may also support a wholesome, balanced mind/body complex.” Furthermore, the company states that:
“CBD oils that are light on taste present a great option for those seeking a no-fuss alternative. When you use our CBD Tincture 1000mg Natural Flavor, you’re going to feel great and pain/stress free .
At Orange County cbd , when you order CBD oil you are getting a product that has been made with the highest industry standards. Our hemp C02 extracted products are no exception to this standard. These are not only non-GMO, but they’ve been cultivated with the customer in mind, including the best in well-being systems that may support healthy relaxation levels and invigorate you body .
Our brand is centered on quality and customer satisfaction,we are the first cbd company worldwide to incorporate and peal and reveal label within the bottle,and this goes for all of our CBD hemp tincture products. We pride ourselves on offering products that offer an enjoyable way to take control of your health and wellness. Our processes don’t include complex chemicals or diluted solvents, but instead, we give you great organic ingredients derived from Our USA-grown hemp plants in carefully selected farms .
Our full spectrum CBD Oil 1000mg Natural flavor is a result of years of hard work. We’ve dedicated our careers to providing a quality, top-notch experience. We make ordering CBD oil a simple process, and we’ve been reactive in listening to customer needs, wants, and unique goals.
When you invest in CBD full spectrum tincture from Orange County cbd , you are genuinely getting a glimpse of the fertile fields in Northern California and Colorado where we source all of our products. We also ensure that you’re getting nothing but the best – this includes cannabidiol with a low (0.20%) THC content along with a large dose of phytocannabinoids to add to the entourage effect,
Furthermore, you can trust that Orange County cbd oil tincture has been manufactured with high-grade hemp materials. The farmers who grow our hemp harvest from fields that contain no pesticides or harmful chemicals, and once gathered, the materials are sent for three tier laboratory testing where they undergo a closed-loop supercritical CO2 extraction process. We use highly pressurized carbon dioxide extraction techniques, which allows us to incorporate the most useful phytochemicals from the hemp materials.
In short, at Orange County cbd we utilize naturally-occurring CO2 because we want an end result that lacks toxic chemicals and is the cleanest products available on the market when customers buy full spectrum CBD tincture from us. Our process derives key terpenes from the hemp plants, and also yields maximum phytocannabinoids. In turn, this allows users to get the most from our products.
We ensure the highest standards in quality control, and strive to deliver a high-quality product that can support healthier habits — and a better you.”
I really like the peel and reveal label which hides a very useful CBD dosage table. Although I listen to my body when it comes to CBD dosage, this label is definitely very useful to novices who are on their CBD maiden voyage. Orange County CBD Oil has a very authentic, natural and slightly earthy hemp taste. The Orange County CBD Oil is very potent and you can feel the positive results within half an hour. I like to take Orange County CBD Oil directly in my month without mixing it with food or beverages simply because I enjoy its authentic taste. This particular CBD oil made me feel very relaxed, calm and collected.
Overall, I am very impressed with Orange County CBD and what really defines the brand is it refreshing uniqueness across the entire board starting from Vegan Gummies and quality hemp growers in California and Colorado to supercritical CO2 CBD extraction method. The supercritical CO2 CBD extraction method and all-natural ingredients definitely makes a big impact in terms of the quality of Orange County CBD products. In terms of the presentation, Orange County CBD product packaging and the entire brand is very bright and vibrant and conjures up images of bright and long summer days at Malibu beach with cool blue waves, green palm trees and tanned Hollywood bikini bodies. I also associate Orange County CBD brand with the Housewives of Orange County: the brand is sexy, refined and sophisticated as the housewives of Orange County 🙂 The company’s website is very minimalistic and refreshingly uncluttered which helps to put all the products into focus and makes the entire purchasing and checkout experience a real breeze. When comparing Orange County CBD products against other brands, I must admit that Orange County CBD is in a league of their own: the brand is so different that it is incomparable. For the want of a motorist analogy, if we buy a vintage Mercedes W124, then we cannot really compare it with a 2020 E Class Mercedes. Other than that, my interaction with Orange County CBD has been very pleasant. The guys from Liverpool are extremely friendly and make Liverpool live up to its image of being a friendly and hospitable place.
In this review, I am going to be reviewing JustCBD Coconut Oil Tincture in 550mg CBD, Sugar Free CBD Gummies and CBD Gummies Peach Rings (21mg CBD Per Piece). I would like to thank JustCBD for sending their products over to me. This is not the first time JustCBD have sent me their products for my review. On previous occasions, we have had a lot of problems with their CBD products reaching me. The problem was not so much customs related but rather CBD products miraculously “evaporating into the thin air” at the post office delivery depot. The takeaway is that CBD products should always be sent in plain packaging without giving away the nature of the package. Do note that there are a lot of unscrupulous people out there and CBD products are an attractive target to them.
JustCBD brand is definitely amongst my favourites. It is based all the way in sunny Florida and is one of the leading CBD brands in the world. Having reviewed many CBD brands, I have noticed that JustCBD brand stands for exceptionally high quality starting from the packaging and ending with the final products. One downfall of many CBD products is the label. A lot of the times, I have noticed that CBD products had poorly attached labels that were coming off. This is indeed a common problem in most industries and a brand should not be faulted on that alone. JustCBD product labels are stuck on properly and did not come off even in most rigorous conditions: being thrown in the bag, draws and my car. The JustCBD brand strikes me as very modern, minimalist and exceptionally professional. All product packaging ticks all the regulatory and compliance check boxes. All the information is very clearly signposted. Just CBD provides a very comprehensive line of CBD products that cater to almost every segment of the population:
CBD Gummies, CBD Edibles, CBD Vape Pens, Full Spectrum Tincture, Sugar Free CBD Gummies, CBD Protein Bars, CBD Dried Fruit, CBD Bath Bombs & Soap, CBD Vape Cartridges, CBD Oil Tincture, CBD Honey Sticks & Coconut Oil, Isolate, Vape E-Liquid, CBD for Pets and CBD Pain Cream.
If you are trying CBD for the first time, CBD gummies are a safe, fast and effective way of taking CBD.
CBD gummies have gained enormous popularity in recent years – and it’s not hard to see why. Gummies provide a distinctive experience that sets them apart from other forms of CBD. They’re not only a fun and convenient way to experience all of the benefits of CBD and are easy to eat. JustCBD mix top of the line hemp with an extensive amount of tasty and exciting flavors. So you get all of the same benefits without the mess of a CBD oil tincture. Especially if you are trying CBD for the first time, our gummies are completely safe, convenient, and effective.
Ready for that first CBD gummy that gives you a real bang for your buck? JustCBD gummy products range from 8mg to 25mg per gummy and are designed with you in mind – so whether you’re looking to relax after a hectic day at the office, or as a bedtime snack to before you drift off to sleep, JustCBD have exactly what you’re looking for in various sizes and flavors.
Many complain about a strong aftertaste with CBD Edibles – but that’s not a problem for JustCBD. The flavor is what the company does best. The array of flavors include clear bear, sour bear, clear worms, sour worms, happy face, apple rings, peach rings, and blueberry rings. Each flavor is available in different size jars from 250mg, 500mg, 750mg, 1000mg, 3000mg jars.
JustCBD is honest and transparent about what goes into their products. All of JustCBD products are made in the United States using organically grown hemp. The CBD Gummies are designed to be as potent as possible to give you the best value for money. You can trust that JustCBD CBD Gummies are always from the purest and finest quality ingredients to achieve a perfect gummy. Striking that balance is at the core of what JustCBD does.
JustCBD CBD Gummies 1000mg Jar comes in a wide range of exciting flavours.
Clear Bear- JustCBD CBD gummy bears offer fun colors with bold flavors containing approximately 10mg CBD per piece.
Sugar Bear – These sour CBD bears might look harmless but these bears have a bite! With a sugar coating that quickly changes to an explosive sour tang in your mouth. Containing approximately 10mg of CBD per piece.
Worms – JustCBD CBD gummy worms are mid-size worms that offer big bodacious flavors containing approximately 14mg of CBD per piece for a 1-inch worm or 25mg per piece for a 3-inch worm.
Sour Worms – Unlike other sweets, these tiny worms have an explosive sour tangy taste and a captivating two-toned color design! Containing approximately 14mg CBD per piece.
Apple Rings – Don’t be fooled by these potent CBD apple rings which contain approximately 25mg of CBD per piece have the classic taste of the ultimate green apple.
Peach Rings – If peach is more your flavor. Try our CBD peach rings take a bite of these perfectly peachy CBD rings which contain approximately 25mg of CBD per piece.
Happy Face or Emoji Face – JustCBD CBD happy face emoji gummies are a perfect way to express yourself. Containing approximately 6mg of CBD per piece these small happy face gummies will make you smile.
Overall, I have tried JustCBD CBD Gummy bears in different settings. I took a few before going to bed, whilst working in front of my computer, whilst driving and before going to the gym. The CBD gummy bears are extremely delicious and the quality really comes through. JustCBD CBD Gummy effect is very different to the effect that you will get from other CBD edibles. I have tried CBD gummy bears from over 20 leading brands and one thing that I totally love about JustCBD CBD gummies is that they produce a very happy and euphoric effect inside of me without impairing my mind or putting me to an incapacitating chill. JustCBD CBD gummies seem to somewhat adjust to the mood: so if I am working, JustCBD CBD gummies will help me to focus and feel more relaxed, when I am resting the gummies will help me to unwind and go into a real chillout state without putting me to sleep or making me too lazy to think about anything. I attribute this CBD effect down to JustCBD’s quality CBD and hemp. My impression is that JustCBD’s size allows them to have exclusive access to their very own hemp farm where they harvest the top quality hemp that is then used to make CBD. Another good nice aspect of JustCBD CBD gummies is that I did not need to eat plenty of them to feel the effects. Two gummies are fully sufficient to achieve a perfect state of relaxation without compromising your focus and clarity of the mind. I found that the best way to eat JustCBD gummies is by sucking on them for a longer period of time rather than chewing them.
Do you get hungry at work, and perhaps a little grouchy? Does your belly growl just before bed? If so, it is time to rely on an all-natural snack that won’t hurt your diet. What you want is JustCBD sugar free gummies. After all, they are quick and easy to consume CBD gummies without all the calories.
Every sugar-free CBD gummy that JustCBD stocks is soft, chewy, and the perfect way to enjoy CBD. At the same time, there are several benefits of CBD sugar free gummies on the market, as they are completely natural and safe for your daily routine. For instance, all of JustCBD gummy bears come from industrial hemp, rather than THC found in marijuana. That means a user never has to worry about experiencing an unwanted euphoric high.
After eating the designated amount of our powerful CBD infused sugar free gummies, you will have no trouble driving to work and taking care of business for hours at a time. In fact, people are known to feel great after consuming their daily intake of cannabidiols, as the sugar free delights are a perfect way to take a break. The CBD goodies may be the number one way to turn a chaotic day into a CBD positive day. To top it off, each CBD product for sale at JustCBD is made in the USA.
Besides containing zero sugar, JustCBD’s hemp gummies contain no cholesterol. They are made with real fruit juice and possess plenty of vitamins and nutrients. JustCBD sugar-free treats contain Maltitol Syrup as a sweetener, and are now available in 250mg, 500mg, 750mg, and 1000mg bottles.
When I first tried the JustCBD Sugar-Free CBD Gummy Bears, I could not believe they were sugar free (for those of you from the UK, this may bring to mind the famous TV ad “I can’t believe it’s not butter!”). The JustCBD Sugar-Free CBD Gummy Bears are so tasty and sweet that they feel just like gummies containing sugar in them. The sweet taste is most probably achieved by the natural fruit juices that give the CBD gummies a sweet, potent and very aromatic smell and taste. My personal experience with JustCBD Sugar-Free CBD Gummy Bears was that they really helped to open up my creative side. Working in front of a computer can be very stressful and there where times when I was overwhelmed with problems to which I could not find solutions. After eating a few JustCBD Sugar-Free CBD Gummy Bears, I found myself in a more relaxed and chilled out phase not in the sense that I wanted to just chill but in the sense that I found myself thinking more creatively. Soon, I managed to address every problem I was facing with my work one by one by taking a focused and measured approach. On the contrary, when consuming other CBD gummies from other brands, I tended to zone out and my productivity plummeted to a great extent. I also enjoyed taking JustCBD Sugar-Free CBD Gummy Bears before bed whilst listening to some quality Neuro Punk DNB. JustCBD gummies helped me to enter a state of meditation and opened up good memories to me which made me feel exceptionally good. After consuming JustCBD gummies, I felt very energised and fresh in the morning. I actually wanted to get up and do things and was not tempted to snooze my alarm clock: in fact, I did not need an alarm clock to wake up at 6am, I naturally got plenty of quality sleep with JustCBD gummies.
JustCBD Coconut Oil CBD Tincture is best consumed in drinks and food. I personally really enjoyed mixing the CBD tincture with various drink such as bubble tea, lemonade, desserts, etc. I found that I only needed to add a few drops of this exotic coconut oil CBD tincture and the effects were amazing. Firstly, JustCBD coconut CBD oil made my food and drinks taste very “coconuty” and exotic. The taste of this CBD oil is very fresh and fragrant and not overwhelming in the sense that this oil rounds up the flavour of the food or drink instead of overpowering it. This makes JustCBD Coconut Oil CBD Tincture the perfect companion for mixing it with various drinks. A great thing about adding CBD oil to your food or drink is that you can integrate CBD into your diet. Once again, JustCBD Coconut Oil CBD Tincture gave me a very euphoric feeling and made me very happy, chilled and positive yet very energetic and driven in whatever I was doing.
JustCBD products make me feel very good, happy and euphoric in whatever I do without clouding my judgement of impairing my senses. This make JustCBD products a perfect companion during all stages of the day. I also felt JustCBD’s health benefits that I personally experienced. During boxing workouts, I noticed that my stamina improved and my muscles were much more rested and reinvigorated which allowed me to achieve my peak performance and recover very quickly in between exercises. JustCBD is without any reservation the leading CBD brand in the world. Having tried multiple CBD brands, I am of the view that JustCBD have access to very exclusive industrial hemp and manufacturing processes that are not available to other brands, which makes its products the best on the market across all criteria. I have noticed that JustCBD have very professional and qualified staff with high-profile backgrounds in cooking, science and engineering which is reflected in the JustCBD products. JustCBD brand brings real professionalism and unrivalled quality to the market and this definitely separates them from a lot of smaller amateur companies with small budgets and constant corner cutting.

Produced by the Stanley Brothers (Joel, Jesse, Jon, Jordan, Jared, and Josh) in 2012 and based in Boulder, Colorado, the company’s hemp CBD gummies are offered in three variations: Calm, Sleep, and Recovery for after working out. By 2013, Stanley Brothers were features on CNN, 60 Minutes, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and more. I decided to try the “Calm” option for my stressful workdays.
All of Charlotte’s Web CBD Calm Gummies are gluten free. They are also made with their own combination of fruits and veggies, along with dozens of phytocannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids. A little L-theanine and lemon balm are mixed in as well.
According to their website, the CBD products sold at Charlotte’s Web are designed to help individuals relax, stay focused without feeling drowsy, and improve regular sleep patterns. The flavors come from real fruit and veggies. I tried the Lemon Lime flavor. They did work, but they certainly are not the best CBD gummies out there. They also taste rather sour.
All of the CBD gummies to help a person stay calm from Charlotte’s Web are made with zero additives and no dyes. Each jar contains 60 gummies with 10 mg of hemp extract, 50 mg of L-theanine, and 75 mg of lemon balm per serving. Two gummies are suggested for each serving, but I often had to ingest more than two or three to feel at peace after a stressful day at work.
Charlotte’s Web markets its CBD gummies to people on the go. Its main focus is consumers with busy lifestyles can use them after exercising, as well as at the office and at bedtime. A user just has to be patient and consistent and positive results will be steady, even if they are a bit slow.
Based in Scottsdale, Arizona, the team at PureKana markets their vegan CBD gummies to people looking to manage daily stressors, whether they are at home or in the office. The company that became known for its oil tinctures organically grows its own brand of CBD gummies on Kentucky farms.
Made in the United States and sourced from domestically grown hemp, PureKana relies on its trademarked technology and CO2 extraction procedure to make its own gummies. They come in a wide variety of natural flavors, but nothing stands out as tasting particularly special. The company also states its hemp never contains dangerous or toxic elements, such as chemical fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides.
Supposedly, PureKana’s products work with a person’s Endocannabinoid System to offer mental and physical benefits, like loosening up and feeling free of stress. PureKana markets their gummies to people looking to improve sleep-patterns.
Ensuring product and consumer safety, PureKana works with certified companies and third-party laboratories to test every CBD edible. They are also 100% vegan and completely free of both GMO and THC isolate.
I appreciated how PureKana walks readers through the process of eating CBG gummies, and the treats traveling along the digestive system before being absorbed. I also liked their honesty, admitting that its Vegan CBD Gummies often take a while to become effective. PureKana lives up to industry standards and customer expectations.
You can read details about every CBD edible on their website, where the company boasts about its fabulous affiliations with hemp growers. A visitor can read all about every one of its products for sale. Lab results are also shared on the company website. I even noticed that they market their CBD supplements to senior citizens.
Designed to improve relaxation, a $40 bottle of 20 PureKana Vegan CBD Gummies comes with 25 mg of CBD per piece. Of course, you can increase or decrease your frequency and quantity as needed.
Green Roads is a small family-based business in Florida that was founded by an experienced pharmacist in 2013, Laura Baldwin Fuentes. The pharmacist was trying to help a friend overcome an addiction to opiates, the drugs derived from opium. Today, Green Roads has one mission: to improve the physical and mental wellbeing of every consumer with high quality CBD products, like oil tinctures and edibles.
Today, Green Roads’ is rather popular. In fact, its broad spectrum formulas can be found in more than 10,000 different retail locations across the country. They are non GMO and stem from hemp grown on domestic farms. Green Roads offers a wide variety of products designed to work for almost everyone, including daily dose packs, animal products, and even coffees and teas.
The company boasts about its high standards and breakthrough extraction methods. I also appreciate how a user can readily find product lab sheets online, as well as by scanning a QR code on the packaging. That’s pretty cool. Green Roads also breaks down usage information for each product to make it as straightforward as possible.
However, Green Roads’ proprietary formulations are perhaps too proprietary. The company does not provide specifics about its extraction processes and certifications online, making it hard for users to understand exactly how its products are made. At least every one of Green Roads’ products is tested at a third party lab.
Unfortunately, Green Roads CBD Gummies aren’t made with phytocannabinoid-rich (PCR) hemp oil. Also, consumers can’t read important information about their extraction and formulation processes. The gummies’ lab sheets can be found on the packaging, as well as online.
While they are known for proving quality service, Green Roads is also one of the most expensive brands out there. A $43.95 bottle of 30 Green Roads CBD Gummies only comes with 10 mg of CBD per piece. Ouch.
Based in Los Angeles, Lord Jones has been making luxurious CBD products since 2016. Marketing to the rich and famous, Lord Jones Old-Fashioned CBD Gumdrops are supposed to be chic. Okay, but you are paying a bit more for product recognition and packaging.
Old-Fashioned CBD Gumdrops are made to promote a serene sense of well-being. Everything is mixed in little batches containing Ecuadorian dark chocolate, imported natural European fruit flavors, sugar, citric acid, gelatin, and broad spectrum CBD extract derived from top quality hemp.
Developed by a veteran team of experts in the CBD industry, Lord Jones’ gummies are said to help individuals feel calm and cool. Supposedly, they can help a user concentrate for extended periods of time. Of course, they do take a while to kick in.
All the CBD edibles are manufactured here in the U.S. and possess no THC whatsoever. They are also gluten free, as well as tested in labs to ensure customers’ safety. Old-Fashioned CBD Gumdrops also have gelatin, meaning they are not vegan. Not only are they made with sugar cane, a consumer may find small amounts of dairy. After all, the gumdrops are created in a facility that also manufactures products with dairy.
Lord Jones claims it is best to consume the CBD treats within 6 months from the date of purchase. But I noticed they grow hard after 2 or 3 months. It’s only natural for gummies to stiffen up after being exposed to air for too long. In other words, make sure you keep any Old-Fashioned CBD Gumdrops in a sealed bag or airtight container, and stored at room temperature.
Each box of Lord Jones Old-Fashioned CBD Gumdrops costs $45 and only comes with a mere 9 gumdrops, each containing 20 mg of CBD. A whopping $5 a pop is a bit pricey, especially for a product that doesn’t always receive favorable reviews. At least Lord Jones Old-Fashioned CBD Gumdrops are elegantly packaged.
For those of you who want to steer clear of THC in general, Fab CBD Chews has been around since 2018. Despite the company being located in Tampa, Florida, its financial offices are on the other side of the pond in the U.K. They are also small in size in comparison to the leaders of the CBD industry, like Just CBD.
Designed to manage day to day stressors, Fab CBD Chews’ gummies are crafted with CBD isolate. They are also gluten free and non GMO, as well as a smart option for vegans.
What I like about Fab CBD is its simplicity. Not only do they maintain an informative website, it only sells three products, CBD oil, a CBD topical cream, and CBD gummies. Each one is derived from naturally grown hemp. It’s just too bad Fab CBD Chews are only available in one flavor, Fruit, that is said to have an undesirable taste.
Fab CBD Chews website has plenty of photos of supposed real customers, which is refreshing to see. Many other CBD businesses’ websites lack color and personality. At the same time, they don’t skip out on sharing lab reports. In fact, Fab CBD chews uses the same analytics laboratory, ProVerde, as Fab CBD Chews and much bigger companies, such as PureKana.
Those with allergies should beware, as Fab CBD Chews are processed. In fact, they stem from the same building that makes fish gelatin. They are then packaged in the same facility as wheat, coconut, and dairy products.
Meant to work as a post-workout supplement, the gummies from Fab CBD Chews have 25 mg of CBD isolate, come in a 4 oz jar, and supposedly contain 750 mg of CBD total. Of course, without a lab, it’s hard to know how much you are really getting in each piece. They normally cost $59 or more.
Since opening its doors in the summer of 2018 in Los Angeles, Premium Jane CBD has blossomed into a popular brand in the United States. Now centered in Scottsdale, Arizona, Premium Jane’s products, including standard CBD oil tinctures, soft gel CBD capsules, a topical CBD cream, and CBD gummies are created with a THC-free isolate extract.
Premium Jane CBD gummies should be consumed just like any other piece of candy, allowing the CBD to travel through your digestive system before it gets absorbed into your bloodstream. People should start out with either half a gummy or one whole gummy to figure out their ideal serving sizes.
The CBD gummies are created at registered Pilot Research farms in rural Oregon, where they are inspected regularly for purity, as well as for safety. Each crop is selected for its rich amounts of terpenes and cannabinoids in order to give a user the best CBD experience possible before being shipped anywhere in the 50 States.
Everything sold at Premium Jane is extracted from the stalk, stems, leaves and flowers of industrial cannabis. They also make it a point to avoid using any and all dangerous chemicals, including pesticides, herbicides, and chemical fertilizers in its products. Meanwhile, a user never has to worry about the psychoactive “high” associated with marijuana. Rather folks simply feel calm and cool.
When it comes to Premium Jane CBD gummies, user feedback is at a minimum, as they have not been around very long. Yet, there are some benefits worth noting shared in reviews all over the web. For starters, the company relies on the reputable ProVerde Labs to make sure their CBD is top of the line and effective in users’ systems.
A person can even go online and check out Premium Jane CBD gummies’ laboratory reports, along with customer feedback. Reviews often mentions the great taste of the edibles. The price of Premium Jane CBD gummies is rather inexpensive. A jar of 30 gummies, 25 mg each, is priced at $55.
Sunday Scaries CBD Gummies are created to help those who are stressed out feel at ease. Staying focused becomes easier, as does sleeping through the night. That is why they are all made with a unique blend of broad spectrum CBD, vitamin D3, and vitamin B12.
The treats are ideal for vegans who crave vitamins. The goal of Sunday Scaries CBD Gummies is to decrease a user’s daily mental, physical, and emotional strains. A consumer can choose between Sunday Scaries’ gelatin based gummies from pure sugarcane and vegan-friendly edibles made from pectin, along with high fructose corn syrup.
Perhaps the greatest benefit, or at least the most fun factor of Sunday Scaries CBD gummies is that they come in a variety of colors, including yellow, orange, green, and a tasty red. They may come with an unpleasant aftertaste, but I know I am not simply enjoying candy for my sweet tooth.
I suggest taking a single Sunday Scaries CBD Gummy bear roughly 45 minutes before heading to bed. If you do not begin to feel drowsy in 30 minutes, simply enjoy a second helping. That should be enough to knock you out for a few hours at a time. If a third is necessary, go ahead. However, I wouldn’t consume any more than three.
Whether you are on the highway or watching television in the evening, you will feel more relaxed. You’ll get better sleep and not be sluggish in the morning. Every bottle of Sunday Scaries CBD Gummies comes with 20 gummies with 10 mg of CBD each. I found them online for $31 to $39 each. Of course, folks can always buy in bulk to save a few bucks. They may not be the most inexpensive edibles on the market, but Sunday Scaries CBD Gummies do help you chill out.
Founded in 2015, Southern California’s CBDfx is one of the most well-established brands for CBD. The brand got its feet wet with CBD Vape products and has since began selling its own brand of CBD gummies derived from hemp plants grown organically in the United States.
The gummies are sweet and chewy. You can go on the web and quickly choose berry flavored CBD treats or special CBD gummies with special ingredients, like turmeric, melatonin and spirulina. None of the gummies are made with corn syrup, artificial sweeteners, or any other destructive chemicals.
CBDfx prides itself on using nothing but natural plant based ingredients for its CBD gummies, as well as vape pens, oil tinctures, and more. They also claim to be the very first brand to create 100% vegan gummies. While the snacks certainly look like appetizing candy, they taste nothing like standard gummy bears. Rather, CBDfx Gummies remind me of green licorice.
CBDfx Gummies are made from organic sugar cane. As a result, the small particles of sugar dance around the inside of the bottle, rather than staying stuck to the gummies. That means a person can expect a little mess to fall on his or her desk or lap every time one is pulled out. Otherwise, CBDfx Gummies are an impressive and effective treat for the mind and body.
Unfortunately, CBDfx doesn’t share any information about who farms their hemp or what procedures they follow. Who knows what practices are being used?
You can now purchase little 8 packs of CBDfx Gummies, as well as 60 pieces with 5 mg of CBD per vegan gummy, 300 mg in total, for approximately $50. The company recommends a dose of one to two CBD gummies a day, meaning a bottle of 60 gummies should last a consumer for one to two months.
Made with all natural ingredients, Highland Pharms Hemp Plus CBD Gummies is the opposite of a pharmaceutical company. Founded in Texas in 2015 and operating a retail location in Olympia, Washington, Highland Pharms uses organic hemp grown on a boutique farm in Colorado.
Highland Pharms Hemp Plus CBD Gummies do not smell good, nor do they taste any better. At least they successfully help people relax and fall asleep.
What Highland Pharms refers to as “Pharmaceutical Grade Hemp” is industrial hemp that has been specifically bred to have high levels of cannabinoids. The non GMO CBD gummies are all natural, with the exception of food dyes and artificial flavorings (Black Carrot Juice Concentrate, Organic Turmeric, and Organic Annatto) in their gummies.
As far as negative factors about Highland Pharms Hemp Plus CBD Gummies, I know buyers are quickly turned off by the name “Pharms” and its label, “pharmaceutical grade.” There is no more information offered to distinguish it from medicine or even industrial hemp. Also, a blogger like me is quickly annoyed at silly typos and partial product descriptions of the business website. It’s not very professional.
All of Highland Pharms’ products are sent off for testing by ProVerde that confirms the gummies’ potency of CBD and other cannabinoids. They also make sure there are zero heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, or microbes.
There is no one standard serving size. While one person may like taking half a piece at a time, another may prefer the mental and physical effects of one or even two CBD snacks.
You can purchase fruit flavored Highland Pharms Hemp Plus CBD Gummies in bottles of 20. You can choose 10 mg gummies for $39.95 or 20 mg edibles for $69.95. The shipping is known to be fast, as well as free. While the price may be a bit high, consumer feedback usually claims Highland Pharms Hemp Plus CBD Gummies are worth the money.
Do you have more questions about CBD gummies? We’ve got the answers…
As a consumer, it is now up to you to pick the best CBD gummies on the market. For any first time user, that’s a task that is easier said than done. You don’t want to spend too much money, but you should also steer clear of any cheap edibles. But there is so much more to consider than merely prices.
When choosing what CBD gummies to buy, you should consider the type of CBD that is used in the ingredients. CBD isolate is pure CBD that has no other cannabidiols whatsoever. This is a fabulous product for anyone who must avoid THC, like a bus driver or schoolteacher who is worried about failing a drug test. Yet, the CBD isolate extraction method takes away many important organic compounds and terpenes. In other words, an individual won’t achieve the same range of mental and physical benefits as normal CBD gummies.
Yes, CBD gummies are extremely effective when it comes to managing stress. As millions of men and women deal with stress on a daily basis, CBD treats calm a user’s body and mind by binding to serotonin receptors. No, everyday stressors won’t disappear, but CBD edibles certainly helps folks deal with the pressure. Of course, it may take a bit of trial and error to decide your favorite flavor and dosage of CBD edibles. Regardless, CBD makes it effortless to chill out, allowing stress to calmly float away. Also, CBD gummies are rather convenient, as you can carry them around in your pocket or purse. That way, you can take one whenever necessary, whether you are on the highway during rush hour or preparing to give a big speech at the office.
Eating CBD gummies couldn’t be any easier. In fact, it is no different than eating delicious gummy bears with spectacular advantages for your mind and body. Simply chew your goody up. Otherwise, you can let it sit on your tongue for a while and enjoy the flavor before it sinks into your system. The CBD will then make its way through your digestive system and end up flowing through your veins.
While the total impact of CBD gummies varies from person to person, all positive results are usually the same. For instance, CBD edibles are known for improving the brain’s capacity to manage stress and help folks feel calm. With a peaceful state of mind, a user can enjoy quickly falling asleep and staying asleep throughout the night. That means you will wake up feeling more refreshed and stay energized throughout the day. Being more productive can certainly add to an individual’s happiness. That’s pretty cool, considering that approximately 35% of Americans currently suffer from symptoms of insomnia.
According to buyers and sellers, the top CBD gummies for sale are the edibles without any GMOs (genetically modified organisms). At the same time, the best CBD treats are vegan friendly and are low in carbs. Consumers agree that the highest quality CBD gummies come from U.S. hemp with minimal traces of THC, if any.
When it comes to the exact ingredients found in CBD gummies for sale, the elements can vary by manufacturer, as well as by taste. When shopping, you can try to avoid any and all additives, including preservatives and artificial ingredients. You should also avoid CBD gummies with high fructose corn syrup. Also, any vegans and people with allergies should do a little homework before indulging in CBD gummies. The top CBD gummies available tend to be completely unrefined, with real sugar, organic flavoring, and non-GMO ingredients.
When shopping for CBD gummies, its essential that you only buy edibles that have been laboratory tested by a third party. After all, the quality of CBD products often varies. While one vendor sells nothing of premium CBD edibles, another may simply be unloading expensive candy with no upsides whatsoever. Your safety may even come into question. It is up to you, the consumer, to find a completely reliable product. That way, you can rest assured you are always purchasing top quality CBD gummies and not sugar-filled sweets.
Yes, CBD gummies, as well as CBD oils and vapes, are legal in all 50 States, as long as they come from hemp. Every hemp product contains a THC level of less than 0.3 percent. On the other hand, the THC in marijuana is much stronger and often gives users unwanted euphoric highs. That is why marijuana-derived CBD products are not legal on the federal level. In other words, it is much safer and smarter to buy hemp-derived CBD gummies.
No, CBD gummies derived from hemp will not make you high, even if it comes from the same plant and offers many of the same wonderful benefits as THC. Sure, both CBD and THC interact with the cannabinoid receptors in users’ brains. However, our reactions to them are not the same. CBD doesn’t have a response on CB1 receptors. In other words, it does not create a euphoric high. In fact, CBD often reduces THC’s influences on the body.
In 2018, the federal Farm Bill legalized CBD and other industrial hemp on a national level. Men and women, old and young, have since been taking advantage of the best CBD gummies available. A number of users find edibles to be much more fun than oil tinctures. Eating snacks is also more convenient than vaporizers and doobies. You can pop one, two, or more in your mouth at a time. Too bad you can’t say the same about CBD-infused bath bombs.
Fortunately for consumers all over the world, CBD gummies can now be found in a seemingly countless number of flavors, ranging from Wild Berry and Sour Bear to delicious Apple Rings, Rainbow Ribbons, Peach Rings, and Blueberry Rings. The only hard part may be picking your favorite one. Fortunately, you can choose seven or more of the best tasting CBD gummies and enjoy a new one every day of the week.
If you have never tried CBD gummies before, it is best to start off slowly. Begin with one 5 gm piece. Better yet, you can cut it in half to start with a 2.5 mg gummy. Then you have to do is sit back and relax. It’s worth the wait, as you can enjoy the mental and physical advantages of CBD for approximately 5 hours at a time. If a couple of hours go by and you feel like taking more, go right ahead. It’s not like it’s possible to overdose on CBD gummies. Over time, you can always increase the amount of CBD you take on a regular basis.
It is best to minimize your CBD edibles’ exposure to light and heat. That is why CBD gummies should be stored in a cool and dark place, like a refrigerator or freezer. Being placed in such a controlled environment will increase your CBD goodies’ shelf lives. The potency of CBD gummies tends to last several weeks in the fridge and approximately 6 months at a time in a freezer.
The effects of CBD gummies usually last approximately 6 hours at a time in a user’s system. It takes roughly 30 to 60 minutes for the benefits, such as mental and physical relaxation, to kick in. Of course, responses can differ from one person to another. Certain factors that come into account include the strength of the edible and the speed of your metabolism, as well as the last time you ate. An individual with an empty stomach will feel the impact of CBD gummies much sooner than someone who just ate a large meal.
When it comes to purchasing CBD gummies on the internet, you must realize that not all the edibles are the same. For instance, you should only trust CBD products that were made in the U.S., as well as tested in a lab. Otherwise, you could end up paying for nothing more than expensive candy. It may help to read different reviews of CBD gummies on the internet. Just remember, what one person thinks works great may not do a thing in your system, and vice versa.
In conclusion, CBD gummies are a wonderful way for men and women to get their feet wet with organic hemp-grown products. Like all CBD merchandise, the edibles are completely legal. As long as you make sure everything is laboratory tested and made in the United States, you too can jump on the bandwagon and take advantage of CBD gummies’ lifechanging benefits.
Nowadays, CBD merchandise can be found all over our culture. Since President Trump signed the 2018 Farm Bill, it has been legal to buy and sell industrial hemp throughout the United States. After all, CBD that stems from hemp is not the same as marijuana derived CBD. While each product comes from cannabis, hemp has less than 0.3% THC, which is not enough to give a person the euphoric high often associated with mary jane. Yet, CBD items, such as creams and topicals made from hemp still allows folks to manage their stress, relaxing their minds and bodies.
“No pain, no gain,” right? No, not anymore. Now what we are in a new decade, there is no reason that men and women cannot or should not take full advantage of the top CBD creams and topicals to comfort any and all suffering. Whether you have been exercising for hours or your body is just getting stiff from sitting on the sofa for too long, the best CBD pain cream available can be a lifesaver when it comes to eliminating soreness.
Not only can the powerful pain cream put an aching body at ease, but CBD also helps people manage everyday stressors, from dealing with unruly children and traffic jams on the highway to handling rude customers and ungrateful coworkers. Every day, various CBD products are helping individuals through long days at the office when keeping a positive frame of mind is often easier said than done. Fortunately, depending on the top CBD cream can make all the difference in the world.
To get the most out of calming CBD cream for pain, you simply apply it whenever necessary to a broken bone or an arthritis-stricken hip. The time of day the cream is put on makes no difference, whether it is after your morning shower, during your lunch break or when you climb into bed. Regardless of the time of day or the last time you ate, CBD pain cream is exceptionally soothing.
Since opening their doors for business back in 2017, JustCBD has grown into the most recognized provider of powerful CBD products for sale, including the best CBD cream for pain. Operating out of the Fort Lauderdale area in South Florida, the company has a top notch reputation for selling the most effective CBD treats for the lowest prices. At the same time, the staff is known for being open and honest with both their long-term customers and potential buyers. According to countless reviews found on the internet, JustCBD representatives are continually polite, while making knowledgeable and helpful suggestions.
Made with nothing but the finest natural oils supplied by Mother Earth, including aloe and comforting coconut oil. the cream is completely organic. Ensuring those with skin or smell sensitivities can take advantage of the Just CBD cream, there are no fragrances added. Now available in 100 mg and 250 mg containers for $20 and $40 respectively, JustCBD Pain Cream is said to be the most soothing ointment on the market. In fact, it’s the cream of the crop.
Just CBD also sells cooling CBD Roll-On cream for fast pain relief in 200 mg and 350 mg options for around $40 and $48 respectively. After applying the top CBD cream for pain onto your skin, it immediately increases blood flow to all applied areas. This affect can be marvelous for helping ease tension throughout the body. The minty scent and icy sensation released by the roller ball helps a person feel totally revitalized, while a user’s frame of mind will become completely laid back.
On top of the best CBD oil cream for pain, JustCBD is known to sell everything from the top gummies and oil tinctures to vape pens and bath bombs. A buyer can even pick up some yummy CBD treats for dogs and cats. All of Just CBD’s hemp-based merchandise is made in the U.S. and ships around the world. That means the cannabis doesn’t have enough THC to give a user a psychoactive high. Too bad the THC-rich CBD goodies that stem from marijuana can’t say the same. Meanwhile, everything created and sold at JustCBD is laboratory tested to ensure consumer safety.

Besides JustCBD, Charlotte’s Web is perhaps the most popular company that sells cannabidiol goods. Offering merchandise grown and sold in Boulder, Colorado, Charlotte’s Web offers full spectrum hemp infused cream created with a nourishing extract that includes vitamin B5, aloe and coconut oil. Buyers can choose between the Soothing Scent and Unscented hemp infused cream.
Both men and women tend to like the Charlotte’s Web hemp infused cream. It seems to be great at softening itchy skin. Yet, Charlotte’s Web’s topical feels extremely thick compared to more oil based lotions people use on their hands and feet. Some folks think it is too thick and greasy because it takes a while to dry. After 45 minutes or so, rough and dry patches feel nice and smooth. Skin then stays nice and soft for hours at a time. Even aching feet become manageable. Reviews on the web also claim that the hemp infused cream has a faint, but pleasurable smell. Both men and women appreciate that it doesn’t possess a menthol scent, unlike many topical creams out there.
A 2.5 oz tube 750 mg of hemp extract sells for $49.99 on the Charlotte’s Web business website. Each tube has 300 mg of hemp per oz. The site says that everything it sells is laboratory tested. However, consumers like me can’t find any info on such testing. Is it done in-house or sent out to a third party lab? Of course, curious buyers can always call their phone number or submit an email, but who has the time or patience? Buyers have to use the batch numbers on their products to gain online entry to such information. But that access only comes with a purchase. Doh! Why doesn’t Charlotte’s Web share the lab results on the packaging or the internet?
Another leader in the CBD industry is PureKana. Located in Scottsdale, Arizona, the company has been around since 2017. They made a name for themselves selling potent oil tinctures grown on farms in Kentucky. Pure Kana’s original mission was to help men and women, including senior citizens, cope with all the stressors of their daily lives. Today, the goal of PureKana’s topical ointment is to get into a person’s skin to give a hydrating, refreshing feeling.
Supposedly, the CBD product successfully moisturizes and rejuvenates users’ skin, in addition to enhancing its elasticity and inner-cell walls. Redness and inflammation can be significantly decreased. Buyers claim it is convenient and easy to use too. I particularly like the fact that PureKana only uses organically grown hemp from the U.S. Pure Kana then uses their own technology and CO2 in its extraction process to make their CBD ointment with a precise amount of THC. Apparently, there are no toxins, like fertilizers and pesticides, in their CBD goodies. It’s also cool that everything is tested in a third party laboratory.
A 3.4 oz bottle of Pure Kana topical ointment with 600 mg of CBD sells on the internet for $80. Personally, I like the fact that Pure Kana only works with certified companies, and that everything they sell is tested at a third party laboratory. Online customers appreciate the 30 day satisfaction guarantee. Consumer feedback likes the fact that anyone can see certificates and laboratory reports on the business website. It looks like PureKana meets all of the government’s requirements and industry standards. Of course, there are a few negative opinions too. Some buyers feel Pure Kana’s topical isn’t as effective as many of its competitors, especially for its high price. Users have even complained about figuring out the right amount of ointment they are supposed to apply to their skin.
Headquartered in Deerfield Beach, Florida, Green Roads has operated as a successful family business since 2013. It all began when a pharmacist, Laura Baldwin Fuentes went on a mission to create a cure for a friend’s addition to opiates, not to be confused with opioids. Her mission was a success and she now works as CEO of Green Roads. A wide variety of the award winning company’s broad spectrum formulas are now found in doctors’ offices, fitness centers, yoga studios and retail shops across the nation. Consumers can also shop for Green Roads’ topical cream on the internet.
Some of the selling points for Green Road’s creams is that they are all made from non GMO hemp that is grown in the U.S. I also like Green Roads’ undeniable transparency, as they share plenty of information about its modern extraction process on their website. A visitor like me experiences no trouble finding important information, including QR codes that link to online lab reports from a third party, on each of their CBD products for sale. In fact, a visitor can find lab sheets to go with all of the merchandise. At the same time, everything is tested by a third party. The biggest problem for Green Roads’ topicals seems to be the high prices. Folks have also complained about rude customer service representatives and poor packaging.
A buyer can choose from Green Roads’ 150 mg and 300 mg in 1 oz containers of Soothing CBD Topical pain cream for about $35 and $63 respectively. While the pieces of CBD are a bit expensive, there’s simply not enough “bang for your buck” there. At least Green Roads guarantees their retail goods. They also sell CBD infused Muscle & Joint Heat Relief Cream with 250 mg and 500 mg of CBD for about $49 and $70 respectively.
Lord Jones High Formula Body Lotion from Southern California has been marketing their CBD merchandise as deluxe and classy since 2016. The hemp-derived lotion is supposedly rich enough to fight off redness in both dry and oily skin. Made by a knowledgeable team of professionals, Lord Jones’ CBD Body Lotion is made with broad spectrum CBD oil. Besides soothing CBD, the ingredients include vitamin-rich shea butter and zero gluten or alcohol. The body lotion is also vegan. A buyer can relax knowing that every ointment sold by Lord Jones is created in the United States and lab tested.
It is meant for individuals to hydrate dry skin, whether it is in the palms of their hands, on their bellies or the bottom of their feet after wearing high heels all day. According to feedback on the web, it allegedly helps skin get back to normal after baking in the sun for hours and even fights off painful cuticles. People appreciate the Lord Jones cream for minimizing small pains of irritated skin at the heels of their feet. You know, the aches that sink in after you’ve been standing up all day. Individuals rub the lotion and it feels like Lidocaine with a damp odor. That’s why some folks claim to use it for neck pain as well. As far as negative critiques for Lord Jones’ CBD body lotion, internet reviews discuss its ineffectiveness for deep tissue pain.
A 1.69 oz bottle of Lord Jones High Formula Body Lotion with 50 ml of CBD costs $60. Every pump releases 1 ml of lotion carrying 2 mg of CBD. A buyer can choose the fragrance free or the signature fragrance with hints of sage, mint and green citrus. It may be chic, but folks end up spending big money on nothing more than a mediocre product with extravagant packaging.
Located in Tampa with offices in the U.K., Fab CBD has been earning a name for themselves in the completive cannabidiol business since 2018. As a team, they have a combined 25 years of experience in the health, fitness and supplement industries. Their CBD pain cream is produced with full spectrum hemp extract to minimize joint and muscle pain. Everything is created naturally on a farm in Colorado.
The Fab CBD website has plenty of good information. It contains all the data that a potential or repeat buyer would search for. I also like the content on Fab CBD’s business site, as you’d expect from a company that only sells three products, its CBD topical cream, edibles and tincture oil. Rather than trying to impress readers with scientific lingo and big words that are hard to follow, it feels like the writer is just telling me the information I am curious about. A visitor can easily click on a photo of the label to read all the ingredients, from aloe vera leaf extract and vitamin E to CO2 extracted hemp oil. The site also has plenty of photos shared by real buyers. I like that. It makes the CBD merchandise feel real, as I see people like me using the pain cream.
A 2 oz container with 600 mg of CBD oil runs for $49, and the only flavor I could find on their site is Fresh. At least its organic. According to their website, the cream is three times stronger than the average cream for pain relief. I don’t think so. The site also claims the topical ointment has a shelf life of 365 days, as long as you keep it unopened and away from extreme heat, cold and moisture. Again, I wouldn’t trust any cream in a jar that can be left open for 12 months.
Since opening their doors in Los Angeles back in 2018, Premium Jane has become one of the major players in the CBD game. Using hemp from Oregon farms and operating out of Arizona, Premium Jane now stocks a large supply of CBD oils, CBD capsules, CBD gummies and CBD bath bombs, along with topicals. The CBD topicals are meant to be massaged into the skin. By doing so, you are administering the CBD in a fast and effective way, and you never have to worry about the pain cream being exposed to your digestive system.
As an avid shopper of CBD goodies, I know how to spot quality merchandise. For instance, I appreciate that everything sold by Premium Jane made is with various parts of the hemp plant. Sometimes it is the leaves and stalk, while other times it is the flower. That’s why the color of the cream sometimes varies. Who cares, as long as the moisturizing components assist with ongoing hydration for a user’s dry and/or damaged skin? You can rest assured that there are no fertilizers or pesticides in the cream.
There are two CBD creams for sale on Premium Jane’s business website. First, the 1500 mg of Cocoa Butter CBD Topical Salve is priced at $125, while the 750 mg of Eucalyptus cream runs for $75. The prices are not as high as Green Roads or Lord Jones, but the praise isn’t as consistent as Just CBD. It’s too bad that I couldn’t find much customer feedback on Premium Topicals. But that’s to be expected from any new company, whether they are selling powerful CBD ointments, athletic shoes or pogo sticks. At least consumers can feel safe knowing that everything is tested for both quality and safety at ProVerde Labs. In fact, there are laboratory results posted on the business website.
CBDfx can already be considered veterans of the game, as the Southern California company has been in business since 2015. Selling natural hemp grown in the United States, they stock everything from CBD vape juice, gummies, drinks, waxes and tinctures to CBD treats for pets and topical creams. It is all produced on modern farms in Kentucky with their own line of CBD oil. All of CBDfx’s creams are meant to prolong the life of amino acids and natural vitamins in a user’s skin.
CBDfx markets their recognizable cannabidiol creams as pharmacist formulated, thanks to the inventor’s previous profession. I was immediately eerie because the last thing I want in my CBD merchandise is pharmaceuticals. Upon further investigation I realized that the topicals are made with quality CO2 extracted CBD, along with other organic ingredients, like plant derived caffeine to stimulate blood flow for faster results. The white willow bark extract acts as an anti-inflammatory. There is also menthol extracted from the mint plant that can dull irritated skin, while leaving a faint but refreshing menthol smell. Supposedly, the ointment moisturizes and nourishes the skin without making it greasy.
The price of CBDfx topicals are rather reasonable. A 50 ml bottle (1.7 oz) with 150 mg of full spectrum CBD is $39.99 online, and a 30 ml (1 oz) bottle of 100 mg full spectrum CBD is $29.99. Consumers appreciate CBDfx’s quality customer service, as well as their wide range of products that ship free anywhere in the nation. The harshest feedback that people can read on the internet is that CBDfx’s topicals only last 3 hours or so at a time, but the company instructs users to apply it every 4 to 6 hours. Why even bother when you can just buy a CBD topical that actually works for 5 hours or more.
Despite the name, Highland Pharms’ CBD Therapy+ Hemp Lotion is made with natural ingredients. So why do they use the word “Pharm” in the title? It’s to stress the point that is uses rather high levels of CBD. Okay, whatever works. Apparently, something is working, considering Highland Pharms has been in business since 2015. With retail locations in the state of Washington, the company uses nothing but organically grown hemp from Colorado. Supposedly, all of Highland Pharms’ CBD goodies are extremely strong, thanks to their own hemp extract.
As a consumer, I was a bit bothered by the thought of purchasing CBD lotion with pharmaceuticals in it. But I quickly got over it. Then the big problem was finding information on the product. If there are no pharmaceuticals, then what is the CBD Cream made of? I consider myself pretty handy with Google, but I still couldn’t find any information online to show me that the lotion it is not a pharmaceutical medicine. Also, all of the little misspellings on their business website annoyed a writer like me. My professors would have a fit if they ever read the Highland Pharms site. At least all of their CBD cream is professionally tested for heavy metals or potentially harmful pesticides by ProVerde. This allows buyers to feel safe, unlike when they purchase CBD goods from China, if not a stranger on eBay.
A 2 oz jar of Highland Pharms CBD Therapy+ Hemp Cream with 100 mg sells for about $40 on the internet. 200 mg of the CBD Therapy+ Cream is almost $60. Meanwhile, a 4 oz bottle of Therapy+ Extra Hemp Lotion with 400 mg of CBD costs $59.95, and an 8 oz bottle with 800 mg of CBD is $89.95. Ouch! From everything I could find, Highland Pharms CBD lotions and creams simply do not justify paying such high prices.
Sticking the same pharmaceutical-like name that I don’t care for, cbdMD CBD has been operating out of Charlotte, North Carolina since 2019. Before picking the ideal location to build their plant, they visited 14 different countries on three continents before choosing the best climate for growing hemp twelve months a year. cbdMD’s hemp-derived Revive CBD Topicals are now available in three different types. Everything is vegan, non GMO and are created with broad spectrum CBD containing no THC whatsoever. Various sizes of cbdMD’s comes in either a tub or a squeeze bottle.
For starters, there is cbdMD’s Recover inflammation formula, along with CBD Freeze rollers and squeeze bottles. The CBD Revive Squeeze is a thick moisturizing lotion that is made with organic material, such as aloe vera and coconut oil, that is great for dry, inflamed skin. Reducing redness and swelling, CBD Revive can be used on things like burns, bruises and irritated skin, but not on open sores. cbdMD’s CBD Revive Squeeze is available in three different strengths, 300 mg in a 2 oz bottle for $29.99, while both the $69.99 750 mg and $99.99 1500 mg are available in a 4 oz container. What I appreciate about cbdMD’s products is their natural ingredients, including acai berry, rice bran, and shea butter.
Online feedback mentions that the creams take only 5 to 10 minutes to moisturize the skin and can last up to 6 hours at a time. The smell has hints of cinnamon, peppermint and citrus. Buyers also mention that cbdMD’s goods are neither thick nor greasy. Everything is grown in the U.S. and third party tested for quality. Unfortunately for cbdMD, the internet is packed with negative reviews. Customers complain about various problems, including ineffective merchandise, rude customer service reps, lost Fed Ex packages that will not be refunded and receiving items without batch numbers.
Want to know more about the top CBD pain creams? Discover some of the most frequently asked questions…
Yes, it is now 100% legal to purchase CBD pain cream in all 50 United States, thanks to the 2018 federal Farm Bill. A consumer just has to make sure that his or her CBD goods stem from hemp, as opposed to marijuana. By definition, hemp has a THC level of 0.3% or less. On the other hand, mary jane contains more THC, enough to give a user the psychoactive high that most folks associate with pot. That’s exactly why CBD from marijuana isn’t legal across the nation, as opposed to hemp products, which are known to be smarter and safer for users.
To begin, CBD is a strong antioxidant. That means CBD cream can protect skin from free radicals and UV rays that cause both aging and illness. At the same time, CBD can interact with the cannabinoid receptors in a person’s skin to help the healing process. In other words, CBD can be rather effective in managing everything from dry skin and acne to daily stressors. Hemp derived CBD topicals consist of several nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, fatty acids and protein that assist with repairing damaging skin. Oil production then becomes restricted, leaving skin feeling nice and tight, as well as soft and smooth.
No, all of the different CBD products for sale, including pain creams and topicals, are not created equal. For starters, a buyer must depend on CBD merchandise that is made domestically in the United States and laboratory tested. If not, you could end up paying big money for a useless lotion that won’t do anything but make your skin greasy. It may help for consumers to read different reviews, articles and blogs online related to the best CBD goods available. Remember, just because an item works well for one buyer, it may not have the same positive affect on your skin.
There is no one “best way to take CBD,” as every individual’s system is different. CBD merchandise that works wonderfully on one person may be completely ineffective on another. That’s why it is always important to experiment. There are literally countless individuals who rely on various CBD products on a daily basis, including gummies, vape oil pens, bath bombs, tinctures and more. While one guy may like using a 350 mg CBD roll on, his neighbor may prefer applying a 250 mg CBD infused pain cream to get rid of soreness and achy skin.
When the time comes to purchase real CBD cream for pain, it is always smart to know what to look for. For starters, make sure your safety is covered by confirming the CBD product is laboratory tested and made in the U.S. Then you can read labels to make sure every ingredient is organic. When it comes to purity, effectiveness and potency, many buyers read professional blogs, along with customer feedback on the web to figure out the top CBD pain creams that are now available.
When looking to buy CBD pain cream, it is wise to know what you are looking for, like how many milligrams of CBD you want in your product. If you are a first time user of CBD goods, it is best to start out slowly. You can try 100 mg of CBD infused pain cream and work your way up to a stronger option, such as 250 mg of CBD. A consumer can also use a CBD roll on, whether it is a 200 mg or a 350 mg option.
While there is no one ideal dose, it is recommended that a first time user starts off slowly by applying a little CBD pain cream anywhere on his or her body. It is suggested that people place a little amount, half the size of a nickel, to the sore or dry parts of their skin. Then they should thoroughly simply rub it in with their fingertips and wash their hands. The CBD skin cream can be reapplied whenever necessary. To figure out exactly how much CBD cream and how often to apply it to your skin, it is always best to rely on a little trial and error.
Cannabis has been used to manage painful skin conditions around the world for centuries. Today, all types of CBD creams, lotions, ointments and salves are applied directly to painful and problematic area of people’s skin. Unlike CBD gummies, protein bars and other edibles, you should never put the cream in your mouth. Thankfully, applying the topicals directly to damaged skin causes the CBD to be absorbed incredibly fast. The best CBD products have multiple uses, such as helping with muscle pain, joint swelling, inflammatory skin conditions, psoriasis, dermatitis, rashes and bacterial infections.
Yes, a person can use CBD cream on his or her face. High quality CBD cream is created to hydrate dry and sensitive skin, regardless of what part of the body it is used on. The top CBD creams for pain relief can help with everything from burns and irritations to itchy rashes and bug bites. Whether it is after a man shaves or when a woman returns from tanning at the beach, simply apply a small amount the targeted area on the face and add more CBD cream when needed. Don’t worry, it’s not like you can overdose on legal CBD cream.
Like all CBD products, the pain creams are generally safe for the human body and any side effects are minimal. The CBD merchandise contains a small amount of THC, but not enough to make a person feel high. Of course, it is still wise to test a little bit of the CBD cream on your skin before applying a hefty amount. Although rare, allergic reactions have occurred from time to time. Even if someone does experience an allergic reaction, it may not be from the cannabinoids. Rather, some CBD pain creams possess additives that cause unwanted reactions to the skin. As long as your CBD is completely organic, you shouldn’t have any problems using it on your skin.
Yes, it is very important that you only buy CBD pain cream that has undergone third party laboratory testing. The overall quality of different CBD products often varies. One retailer may only sell the best CBD merchandise, while another vendor can simply dress up cheap lotion in fancy packaging. One’s overall safety can even become a concern, as there are no government regulations. That is why it is so important that you only buy quality CBD goods with third party testing and their ingredients listed. Simply by reading online reviews, you should be able to tell which companies are reliable.
No, hemp derived CBD is not the same as CBD from marijuana, even if they both come from the cannabis plant. By definition, marijuana has at least 0.3% THC, and hemp contains less than 0.3%. That means there is not enough THC in hemp to intoxicate users or to give them the psychoactive high that is commonly used for recreational purposes. In other words, you can enjoy the same marvelous benefits of marijuana without impairing your mind or body. Cheech and Chong may not think it’s cool, but using CBD products from hemp is a win-win.
While it is unlikely, there is always a possibility that CBD will appear on a drug test, whether it is from a skin cream, an edible or a vape pen. A majority of employers only test for marijuana, rather than CBD. While they both stem from the same cannabis plant, only marijuana has enough THC to make a user high. Regardless if the test is performed on your hair, mouth or urine, you may want to use caution if you may be subject to any type of drug test. Even the smoothest skin imageable can be a disappointment when you’re standing on the unemployment line.
Generally speaking, CBD stays in a person’s blood for five or six days. It doesn’t make much of a difference if the CBD is rubbed into the body as a skin cream, through an oil tincture, vaporizer or as an edible, it all gets flushed out in roughly the same amount of time. Keep in mind that time can increase all the way up to ten days for regular users of CBD products. Still, the time that CBD can be seen in your system is minimal when compared to marijuana that can last about 30 days at a time.
Read MoreFresh from their recent success at a series of major UK award shows, Green Stem CBD has expanded their award-winning CBD enhanced range to include first-to-market CBD infused tonic waters free from sugar, artificial sweeteners and artificial flavourings.
Each can delivers 10mg of the highest quality broad-spectrum CBD and come in three delicious botanical flavours that include Elderflower, Rhubarb & Rose and Citrus. Recommended retail price is £3.00 per can.
CBD – also known as cannabidiol – is renowned for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Revered to promote harmonious balance between the mind and body it also supports with an array of conditions including anxiety and insomnia. Crucially, Green Stem CBD products are 100% free of THC, the psychoactive ingredient of cannabis, so they are entirely legal and safe to use.
The 250ml cans of tonic are adorned with the same beautiful artwork and design that have made Green Stem one of the most visible CBD companies in the UK and reflect the quality and purity of the ingredients in the can.
The tonic contains extracts of Quassia, a West Indian bitter wood which is known for its zesty flavour and health benefits. Added to the blend is Cinchona bark, one of the most important ingredients in tonic thanks to its high level of digestion-aiding quinine – with Green Stem being amongst the first to use botanically-infused quinine vs chemical extraction.
Manufactured at their HQ in Guildford, Surrey, the Green Stem CBD range is crafted using hemp oil rich in phytocannabinoids, derived from hemp grown organically in Colorado USA. All products are also thoroughly tested, enabling the proven health benefits of CBD to be experienced without any negative side effects.
Setting new standards in the industry, Green Stem CBD recently won a clutch of awards at the UK Hemp and CBD Show, winning Best CBD Oil at events in March and October in 2019.
“We are delighted to have been recognised as one of the game-changers in the wellness industry this year with our award-winning CBD oils, inhalable and skincare products,” said Brett Horth, CEO of Green Stem CBD. “Our new venture into the edibles and drinks sector marks a hugely exciting stage in our journey, and we are certain that our customers will enjoy experiencing the benefits of CBD with these innovative new products.”
About Green Stem
Green Stem was founded in October 2018 by brothers Brett and Simon Horth. The idea came to light when vaping business owner Brett took some CBD oil to their mother, who had been struggling with arthritic hands, back pain and broken sleep. Although she was skeptical and feared ‘getting high’, she was reassured it was safe to try. Three days later, she called to tell her sons that the pain in her hands and her back had eased and she enjoyed the best night’s sleep she could remember.
With the Green Stem vision born, the pair immersed themselves in the CBD market, visiting Colorado to meet suppliers and researching products and formulations. From the outset, they knew they would use only the very best; meaning the purest and highest potency CBD available. All products contain active CBD from either 99% pure CBD isolate or broad-spectrum hemp oil distillate. Green Stem products are also created in the UK and adhere to strict guidelines on quality and purity.
March 2019 saw the UK’s first industry Hemp & CBD expo and awards, and though the brothers were not yet ready, they decided to create a small run of products for the event. They submitted seven entries out of 11 categories, and were thrilled and overwhelmed to win five of them – in a field of more than 110 exhibitors. The awards were for Best CBD Oil, Best Inhalable, Best Cosmetic, Best Packaging and Best Exhibition Stand.
After meeting representatives from Boots that same day, they were later invited to be part of the store’s new CBD product range in its ‘Store of the Future.’ Last month, Green Stem products went on sale in 350 Boots stores.
Wellbeing pioneers Green Stem CBD have proudly scooped another set of high-profile national awards, adding to a phenomenal tally this year.
Triumphing at the recent UK Hemp & CBD Show, the Surrey-based company walked away with the coveted honour of ‘Best Oil’ for its 300mg Black Cherry-flavoured CBD oral drops. The oil was singled out by judges for its clean, light taste with just a hint of fresh cherry, as well as its effective delivery of health-promoting CBD. As if that weren’t enough, Green Stem CBD also notched up major wins in the ‘Best Packaging’ and ‘Best Inhalable’ categories.

Read MoreNow that we are entering a new millennium, there is no reason that you don’t take advantage of one of the best CBD vape oil cartridges on the market. They are becoming more and more popular by the day, as they efficiently provide individuals with a soothing effect to fight off stress.
So, what is a prefilled CBD cartridge? These nifty little items are miniature vape tanks that come with vape juice already in them. They can be used with just about any vape pen out there.
One of the reasons that CBD vape pen cartridges are becoming so widely seen is because they are simple to use. Within just a few minutes after vaping, stress floats away, unlike edibles that take approximately 30 minutes to kick in. Swapping out a CBD oil vape cartridge is as easy as one, two, three. The best CBD cartridges are small enough to throw into your pocket or purse for any outdoor adventure, like an all-day music festival or a trip to the beach.
Want to know how to use a CBD cartridge? It’s a piece of cake. Once its charged, you simply screw the piece onto your pen or 510 thread battery. You may have to hold down a button to turn your pen on. Maybe you can even choose your preferred voltage setting. Then all you have to do is lay back and enjoy. Start out slowly with small puffs and gradually work your way up. Remember to turn off your battery when you’re done. That’s it.
When shopping, it is essential that you know what to search for when it comes to prefilled CBD oil cartridges. A consumer gets to choose from a seemingly endless supply of flavors and strengths to satisfy their various taste buds.
Besides picking your favorite flavors, it’s important to purchase CBD vape cartridges that are made in the U.S. Otherwise, your general safety could come into question. Fortunately, a high quality domestic CBD vape pen can be trusted to help you relax your mind and body.
Back in 2017, Just CBD opened its doors and has since grown into the leaders of the competitive CBD industry. The South Florida based company is now known around the world for selling the top CBD vape oil cartridges. What makes Just CBD vape cartridges better than the others is the quality.
Made from domestic hemp, rather than marijuana, every Just CBD product is made with 99% pure CBD isolate. At the same time, all of the CBD merchandise is thoroughly tested by third party laboratories to ensure the products’ purity, as well as consumers’ safety. The CBD vape oil cartridges are also non GMO and vegan friendly.
Not only are the vaping cartridges from Just CBD free of marijuana, there is no tobacco whatsoever. That means a former cigarette smoker has nothing to worry about. Men and women also appreciate that the oil vape pens don’t have to be plugged in for more than a couple hours at a time.
JustCBD cartridges are available in a handful of fun flavors, including Lemon Drop, Wild Watermelon, Grape Glacier, Vanilla Custard Cream, Succulent Strawberry, Pumpkin Spice, Pineapple Express, Sour Diesel, Northern Lights, Honeycomb, Berry Blue and Tropical Mango. While some folks have their favorites, others prefer to mix up their flavors and change them out on a weekly basis.
Regardless what flavor vape cartridges they rely on, consumers also appreciate the fact that they can choose colors for their Just CBD vape cartridges’ pens. They carry a variety of CBD options, such as red, blue, gold, black and silver. Again, you can pick one or use a different color for every workday of the week.

Even the customer service is known to be responsive, along with friendly and professional.

Since 2016, Hemp Bombs has been selling premium CBD goodies. Headquartered in the Tampa Bay area, the company is on a mission to spread organic wellness with their high grade industrial hemp. Their CBD products, including CBD capsules, gummies, oils, e-liquids, syrup and pain creams, are now sold in more than 25,000 stores around the world. According to Hemp Bombs’ website, they are trying to improve users’ comfort levels with improved relaxation and sleep stemming from their CBD merchandise.
Offering nicotine-free CBD vaporizer products, Hemp Bombs CBD vape tank cartridges come preloaded in a variety of entertaining e-liquid flavors. As a consumer, you get to pick the concentration that tickles your fancy; 125 mg, 300 mg or 1000 mg. Too bad there are negative reviews on the web referring to buyers’ limited strength options that do not possess long lasting effectiveness. Folks may also prefer natural flavoring, as opposed to artificial ones mixed in.
Consumer feedback claims the customer service is top notch, perhaps because a scannable QR code links people to their independent lab results. Meanwhile, Hemp Bombs CBD prefilled cartridges are easy to use. A buyer also gets to choose from a vast selection of flavors, including Arctic Spearmint Blast, Crisp Honeydew Melon, Crushed Pineapple Paradise, Roasted Colombian Coffee, Bangin’ Fruity Bedrock, Sugar Cookie Kryptonite, Sweet Mango Seduction, Vanilla Cupcake Swirl, Exotic Watermelon Crush, Whipped Marshmallow Dream, Wild Blueberry Jam and Glazed Chocolate Donut, mmmmm. People also appreciate that Hemp Bombs merchandise is non GMO and third party tested. It even comes with a 30 day money back guarantee.
The CBD cartridges are made out of glass, rather than flimsy plastic. The color of the liquid in Hemp Bombs broad spectrum vape tanks can differ from clear to amber brown. A 125 mg Hemp Extract cartridge for one-time use retails for a moderate price, around $30 online. There is no battery included, but Hemp Bombs’ website offers a vape tank battery kit for around $20. Too bad there is not more information available online about the company and its team.
Sounding suspiciously familiar to the story behind Charlotte’s Web, Pinnacle CBD was created by Kevin and Jessica Lacey to help their 13 year old child suffering from epilepsy. They were trying to avoid untrustworthy Big Pharma meds and didn’t want to send their daughter to school high on marijuana every day. That’s why they found the right farmer, used the best genetic engineering and extraction method to create their CBD product.
Founded in Carthage, Missouri in 2014, Pinnacle Hemp makes a variety of CBD merchandise with high grade hemp extract, including prefilled 1 ml CBD cartridges. Pinnacle Hemp CBD cartridges contain full spectrum CBD in three different flavors, Trainwreck: Sativa, Granddaddy Purple: Indica and Blue Dream: Hybrid.
The Trainwreck: Sativa CBD cartridge option has a lemony taste and is supposed to improve an individual’s overall mood. That’s why user feedback, which I do not trust, says the cartridges work wonders for those who are depressed. The same questionable critiques say that Trainwreck: Sativa helps those suffering from migraines and chronic pain as well.
Granddaddy Purple: Indica CBD cartridges supposedly help users to manage everything from anxiety and upset stomachs to insomnia and fatigue. Some reviews even mention easing pain, especially for those suffering from Fibromyalgia. Finally, the fruity Blue Dream: Hybrid flavor is said to remind folks of mangos, blueberries and vanilla. The CBD cartridges are meant to give people an efficient energy boost and even assist in reducing stress. These are some pretty hefty statements that every consumer should take with a grain of salt. At least the laboratory results for Pinnacle Hemp CBD cartridges can be found online.
Pinnacle Hemp CBD cartridges are available in 500 mg cartridges for $79.99, which is a bit on the pricy side, especially for a product with unreliable consumer reviews posted all over the web. At least a buyer doesn’t have to clean any equipment when he or she is finished using his or her disposable cartridge of CBD.
Operating from Carlsbad, California since 2016, Vape Bright is on a mission to make a handy method of taking advantage of CBD to improve lives. Absolutely no chemicals would be used, and users become happier. That’s when chemist Ben Smith found a way with his pre-filled disposable CBD cartridges that fit onto 510-style threaded vape batteries.
One of Vape Bright cartridges biggest selling points is the that they do not use popular carrier oils, such as vegetable glycerin (VG) and propylene glycol (PG). This allows them to claim their merchandise is clean and wholesome without any dangerous additives whatsoever. Another benefit to the vape oil cartridges is that everything is third party tested and available for shipping around the world. Consumers that are not 100 percent satisfied appreciate the 60 day money back guarantee that many vendors of CBD goods do not offer.
Some folks like the fact that Vape Bright’s cartridges’ vape oil is an amber gold color and has no odor and minimal taste. Others prefer smelling and tasting a flavor every time they vape. Each puff a person takes should equal 1 mg of CBD. There is also a link on Vape Bright’s business site that lets readers view detailed lab reports on its CBD products.
Consumers tend to appreciate the simplicity of Vape Bright’s business website. However, the biggest flaw to Vape Bright’s cartridges of CBD is the high price. The Vape Bright “Thrive” cartridge holding 200 mg of CBD runs roughly $45 a pop. A 3-pack with 600 mg is about $130 and a 5-pack containing 1000 mg is approximately $200. Ouch! Vape Bright is currently trying to expand its line of CBD merchandise for sale. While the company now focuses on a narrow range of cannabidiol products, perhaps colorful CBD gummies and oil tinctures are in the near future for Vape Bright.
Since its creation in Costa Mesa, California back in 2016, GRN has worked with farmers to deliver the highest grade CBD products at a fair price for the everyday consumer. They now supply a wide range of full and broad spectrum tinctures, oils, gummies, pet snacks and CBD vape cartridges. In fact, GRN now has more than 300 different flavors registered with the FDA.
Besides powerful CBD, GRN’s cartridges for vaping possess cannabinoids, such as CBN, CBC and CBG. Everything is gluten free, non GMO and vegan. A big positive worth mentioning is that GRN grows its hemp plants using no pesticides whatsoever. Everything is tested by a third party to ensure consumers’ safety, as well as high purity levels.
GRN’s CBD vape cartridges are made with full spectrum hemp extract from within the United States. Ingredients include pure hemp extract, natural terpenes and coconut oil to help with absorption. Its created using current Good Manufacturing Practices in a facility that is FDA approved. To top it off, the CBD cartridges have no THC whatsoever, and the ingredients are all listed on the box, which is always a positive sign. Every cartridge is tested at a third party lab, allowing buyers to feel safe. According to user feedback found online, one of the most annoying drawbacks to GRN’s CBD vaping cartridges is that it’s not recommended to former cigarette smokers who may be sensitive to nicotine. Unfortunately, I suspect that’s a pretty sizable chunk of the CBD vapes’ marketing. Doh!
A buyer can choose from special flavors, such as apple cinnamon and vanilla custard. Both the unflavored and the flavored vape cartridges are available in 0.5 ml at 200 mg strength for roughly $40, and 1 ml at 400 mg option for about $70. A buyer can also feel comfortable knowing GRN provides a 30 day money back return policy.
Operating since 2014, Cannavape LTD sells hemp that is grown and harvested in Colorado. They even have an office in Barcelona, Spain. According to the company’s digital marketing campaigns, their organic ingredients from natural hemp plants are their biggest selling point. Cannavape vape cartridges, topicals, tinctures and pens are made with CBD isolate with 99% pure CBD. All of their CBD is sourced from only non-GMO industrial hemp.
Oddly enough, Cannavape has two different divisions, CBD-friendly consumer products and pharmaceuticals. They rely on an advisory panel, along with scientific experts and boast high-tech equipment to back up their claims. Every piece of merchandise undergoes an official third-party safety review before receiving a detailed case report.
While online reviews can often be taken with a grain of salt, individuals claim these vaping cartridges have helped with everything from stress and mental enhancement to pain relief, anti-inflammation and insomnia. Feedback also gives Cannavape vape juice cartridges plenty of positive feedback for being easy to use and enhancing a user’s overall quality of life.
A 250 mg container of Cannavape Tropical Medley vape juice is rather reasonable at $34.99. That’s certainly not very high as far as potency when it comes to CBD goods. That’s why I think these CBD products are for beginners only, especially those who may be somewhat hesitant to try cannabidiols.
What customers don’t seem to like about Cannavape is the lack of laboratory information on their website. Folks also tend to complain that the Tropical Medley flavor is much too sweet. Finally, there is not a single package that you can purchase that covers all of one’s vaping needs. Besides Cannavape’s CBD cartridge, a consumer still needs to buy a rechargeable Cannastick Passthrough Micro USB 650 mAh battery. At least online reviews claim these batteries charge rather quickly in about 25 minutes.
It was the year 2015 that the founders of Koi CBD realized there was a frequent problem in their industry. They decided there was the lack of quality in the hemp products being sold around the nation, as well as the entire world. So Koi experimented with dozens of CBD goodies and decided there was an ever-growing need for better regulation and labeling in the industry.
Based in the city of Norwalk in Los Angeles County, California, Koi CBD is now on a mission to assist as many men and women as possible. That is why Koi began manufacturing their very own CBD extract with full traceability. Loaded with natural terpenes, everything stems from raw material and is lab tested to ensure purity. Grown in Colorado, the CBD is extracted using the CO2 method and supposedly has no THC whatsoever. Apparently, Koi also adds their own complex extraction process to get more bang out of their CBD oil extract.
A consumer can pick either Koi Spectrum CBD in 250 mg cartridge for about $40 or a 500 mg one for approximately $60. The prices are relatively reasonable. While there are no batteries included, they are available at low prices. Positive feedback also mentions Koi CBD cartridges’ nice taste and smell.
On the downside, customer reviews criticize Koi for often being out of stock. While it may imply popularity, most consumers find it annoying. While Koi, does have its own 510 threaded Max Battery 380 mAh unit with a USB charging cable for their CBD cartridges, you will have to search for the merchandise elsewhere. It would be cool to see the thread for a battery on the Koi website. Buyers also want to purchase a cartridge and battery combo pack. It seems like an opportunity missed.
Based in Boca Raton, Florida, Funky Farms has been selling CBD vape cartridges since the summer of 2018. Combining Star Wars with a disco vibe right out of the Seventies, the company uses the catchy slogan “May the funk be with you.”
Utilizing non GMO hemp from Oregon, Funky Farms’ full spectrum CBD products are completely organic, as they are made with MCT oil, terpenes and natural flavoring. The CBD cartridges are also created with a sativa blend, full spectrum distillate and wickless ceramic coils that supposedly give a positive vaping experience. It makes sense, considering the last thing you want is some type of aluminum or metal in your CBD product.
Perhaps the greatest asset to Funky Farms’ CBD cartridges for vaping is their colorful packaging that catches a buyer’s eye, along with his or her taste buds. After all, the CBD merchandise is available in several different flavors, including Granddaddy Purple, Gelato, Chocolate Mint and Frosty Watermelon OG. The packaging is simple, yet effective, and user feedback continually compliments the different tastes.
People also claim the CBD devices are relatively easy to use and rather discreet. Another benefit to Funky Farms’ goods is that their products come with QR codes that link to third-party laboratory results. Consumers like me appreciate the transparency. The cartridges are disposable, so you can simply toss it when you are done. There are no refillable pods. Of course, you do need to purchase a 510 thread battery to use the CBD cartridge.
Unfortunately, reviews say Funky Farms CBD isn’t very strong. Folks suffering from stress have to use quite a bit to feel relaxed.
A Funky Farms 1 ml cartridge holding 350 mg of CBD sells for $29.99. There are discounts offered for college students, first responders, teachers, military personnel and their families. That’s pretty cool.
Located in the Fort Lauderdale area of the Sunshine State, Sun State Hemp is relatively new to the scene. In fact, the company didn’t even have an online presence until January of 2019. Every product sold by Sun State is domestically harvested, laboratory tested and manufactured. The hemp found in their vapes is completely organic and 99% pure CBD isolate.
Cartridges run anywhere from $4 to $20 for either a 0.5 ml or a 1 ml cartridge of CBD. Sun State CBD oil cartridges are now available in black, white, gold and silver. Besides laboratory reports shared on their business website, buyers appreciate the fact that Sun State Hemp’s vape cartridges come with a selection of flavors. A person can choose from the citrusy Tropical Blend, fruity Watermelon Taffy and Wild Cherry, berry-like Blue Dream, Gorilla OG and Sour Diesel. Online, user feedback generally commends Sun State Hemp CBD vaporizer cartridges for their wide selection of tastes. Each cartridge is compatible with a 510 battery that easily screws on to give the CBD device power.
Critiques all over the web agree that a Sun State’s cartridge is an affordable and high quality product. Supposedly, everything is carefully monitored and checked for quality. There is also speedy shipping, along with an easy to follow website. A new customer can even find coupons all over the web. But there are still a couple of major problems.
The biggest issue I found online is that Sun State’s vaping cartridges seem to be for beginners only. Neither the potency nor the taste is too strong. An experienced vapor will probably not be satisfied. One reviewer on the web claims the CBD is felt within 5 to 20 minutes and lasts for 6 to 7 hours at a time. I find that hard to believe.
Operating out of Ocean Township, Monmouth County, New Jersey since 2019, The Kind Kart’s full spectrum cartridges are made with natural CBD that is infused with organic plant terpenes that possess zero artificial flavors. The Kind Kart relies on advanced BioTech Water Miscible technology that allows the CBD to enter one’s system as efficiently as possible. Each piece of merchandise contains less than 0.3% THC, so a user never has to worry about any unwanted euphoric feelings. Everything is third party tested to ensure a consumer’s safety as well.
Positive feedback includes each cartridge being individually wrapped with a unique QR code that allows you to read relevant lab results for that specific batch ID. Negative reviews include unhappy buyers that didn’t receive everything they ordered and never heard back from customer support via the phone or by email.
According to The Kind Kart’s business website, their CBD merchandise is ideal for managing users’ everyday stress. It also supports recovery from regular activities, like jogging and lifting weights. I was quickly disappointed when I saw the word pharmaceutical on the site. Even if they are making a point by stating “Pharmaceutical Grade” to ensure maximum absorption into one’s system, prescription drugs are the last thing I want to think of when I am shopping for natural CBD goods.
The disposable cartridges for vaping CBD are available in eight different strains, each containing its own flavor and aroma. Of course, we’ve seen most of these flavors before, so how unique can they be. Options include Blue Dream, Girl Scout Cookies, Gelato, Grand Daddy Purple, Sour Diesel, Train Wreck and Super Lemon Haze. An 8 pack of 0.5 ml Kind Kart oil vape cartridges with 150 mg of active CBD Kind Kart retails for $29.99 on the internet. You will have to purchase a separate 510 battery that runs roughly $20.

The Food and Drug Administration states that CBD products are not meant to treat any type of medical condition. As a direct result, it is recommended that every man and woman talk to a medical professional about his or her specific conditions before trying a powerful CBD cartridge, edible, vape pen or oil. As soon as the medical professional says everything is okay, you will appreciate everything that the top rated CBD vape cartridges do to help you relax your mind and body. You will be sleeping like a baby in no time.
There is now a large number of various CBD options on the market. A consumer can easily buy CBD gummies, full spectrum tinctures, honey sticks, bath bombs, soaps and vape cartridges.

A consumer can sign onto the internet in just seconds from a computer, tablet or smartphone to make a purchase in just seconds. All of the CBD goodies can then be quickly shipped and delivered. It usually takes 2 or 3 days for CBD equipment to show up on your doorstep.
No, vaping CBD that comes from hemp, not marijuana, will not get an individual the euphoric high that is generally associated with smoking pot. In other words, there is not enough THC present in the plant to prevent you from driving to work and spending a full day at the office. In fact, people often become much more attentive and productive. CBD vape juice for cartridges is known to help people relax their minds and bodies with no side effects whatsoever.
Enjoying a CBD oil cartridge for vaping couldn’t be easier. As soon as a powerful CBD cartridge is filled, you simply screw it onto your vaping pen or 510 thread battery. Some vaping devices have to be turned on and others have buttons that must be pressed to draw out some CBD. You must make sure your battery is fully charged before setting it to the proper voltage setting. A beginner should begin at the lowest setting. Then take little puffs until you figure out how much is the most satisfying amount for you. When you are done, all you have to do is make sure the battery is off.
CBD cartridges are petite tanks that are prefilled with CBD juice. A CBD vaping cartridge has a coil and a wick. They use 510 threading, allowing them to be compatible with all the 510 thread batteries, as well as standard ones that are used in just about every vape pen. They are small enough to be tossed into your pocket or your purse. The cartridges are also disposable, making them one of the most convenient tools for vaping CBD oil. The tools are known to quickly and safely help people relax their minds and bodies.
It makes no difference if you vape CBD oil from a cartridge, eat colorful gummies or rub in lotion, the chance of hemp-derived CBD appearing in a drug test is always very slim. However, it is essential to know that it can still happen. A majority of employers only test for the high levels of THC that are found in marijuana. However, there is a tiny amount of THC, under 0.3%, found in hemp products. That may not be enough to get you high, but it could cause you to fail a drug test. So it’s better to be safe than sorry and avoid vaping CBD if it could cost you your job.
Yes, CBD helps men and women manage physical and emotional stress. What happens is the CBD binds to the serotonin receptors in a user’s brain. As a direct result, the mind and body tend to feel calm and cool. That leads to better sleep at night. With improved rest comes increased energy and more productivity at work. Maybe that is why CBD vape cartridges and other CBD goodies are becoming more and more popular by the day. A consumer just has to rely on the right products from a dependable vendor for his or her CBD merchandise.
Under normal circumstances, a person will begin enjoying the positive effects of CBD in just minutes after using a vaping cartridge. After he or she takes advantage of a powerful vape pen, the CBD is sent directly to the lungs. From there, the organic CBD is absorbed rather quickly into the bloodstream and circulated throughout one’s system. What some folks feel in 3 minutes time may take 20 minutes for others. While an individual never has to worry about overdosing on CBD, it is always best to start off slowly and work your way up.
Generally speaking, a single CBD cartridge for vaping lasts anywhere from four days to two weeks. It all depends on an individual’s vaping habits. Do you hit the pen once every 15 minutes or only after enjoying a meal? At the same time, do you take baby size vapes or are your puffs big enough to make Cheech and Chong jealous? Generally speaking, a regular 1 ml cartridge holding 200 mg of CBD delivers approximately 150 puffs if 1 to 2 mg each. The CBD will then be effective for 3 to 4 hours, but may stay in your system for up to 5 days.
While everybody’s preferences are different, one of the most popular flavors for vaping a disposable CBD cartridge is Wild Watermelon. The fruity taste of a ripe and juicy watermelon ensures satisfaction. The Lemon Drop flavor is also a favorite in vape cartridges, as the simple scent can influence one’s immune system, allowing for comfort and relaxation. Other popular selections include strawberry, honey, mango and blueberry. Regardless of what flavor you choose to vape, each CBD cartridge is easy to use, highly effective and small enough to throw into a person’s purse or pocket.
Perhaps the biggest benefit of CBD cartridges is that they quickly and safely chill out users. That means you can manage your stress and keep your cool, even when stuck in a traffic jam on the highway. People also claim the CBD products are phenomenal for relaxation. Sleep comes without difficulty, making it easier to remain energized and concentrate throughout the following day. With one of the top CBD oil cartridges, dealing with physical and mental pressure becomes a walk in the park. Regardless which flavor you prefer, you can rely on potent CBD vape oil to give you a worry-free frame-of-mind.
Unlike CBD made from marijuana, CBD from hemp does not have enough THC to get a person the euphoric “high” that is associated with cannabis. Regardless, CBD from hemp is highly effective in helping people relax. Stressful situations that usually get under your skin become no big deal. The right CBD cartridge can make you calm, cool and collected.
The term 510 is used to describe the threading that supplies vape cartridges power from their batteries. The cartridge is 5 millimeters in length with ten screw threads, giving you a 510 thread. Most CBD oil cartridges are prefilled and conveniently screw onto a vape cartridge battery.
A vape cartridge has an atomizer compartment with a little heating coil inside of it. Above that heating coil is a steel wick. Often times, there are two wicks inside the vape cartridge. Every steel wick extends into the CBD vape cartridge. They are also the components that draw the e-liquid or juice to the heating coil. As a result, a vapor is created.
It is best to keep a vape cartridge for oil stored in an upright position. That means the mouthpiece should be facing down. You should also be conscience of where you leave your vape cartridge. For instance, it should never be left in a hot car or on a windowsill, as too much sun can evaporate CBD oil.
Read MoreFor the last couple of years, I have been praising cannabidiol, or CBD oil for its remarkable ability to help me relax in any situation. I have tried powerful CBD tinctures, festive gummies and even high quality vape pens. Since using the various hemp derived CBD products, all of my stress is completely manageable. As a direct result, I now sleep much better at night. The improved rest does wonders for my energy level at work. I am more fruitful and content throughout my long days at the office and at home. It wasn’t until a recent visit to the vet that I realized dogs and cats can take full advantage of CBD as well. CBD snacks for pets are amazing.
It’s important to realize that hemp derived CBD is not the same as CBD from marijuana. Although they both stem from the cannabis plant, hemp has less than 0.3% tetrahydrocannabidol, or THC. That means there is not nearly enough THC to give an animal the high that most folks associate with mary jane. Industrial hemp is also legal in all 50 states, thanks to President Trump putting the 2018 Farm Bill into effect.
A consumer must realize that not all CBD treats for cats and dogs is the same. It’s up to every pet owner to do his or her homework and buy trustworthy goods that will keep your pets calm and cool. Maybe it’s in the middle of a nasty thunderstorm or perhaps it’s during a Fourth of July fireworks show. There is plenty of whining, panting and shaking. Puppies hide in the corner and kitties refuse to leave your lap. It is up to you, your fur-baby’s loving parent, to do a little homework and only buy safe and efficient products.
Your CBD oil for pets should work quickly to help them chill out whenever it is raining cats and dogs. Everything should also be made with nothing but organic ingredients. Meanwhile, the CBD treats for dogs and cats should be laboratory tested and manufactured in the United States. You certainly don’t want CBD food or drinks that are made with flavor additives or low quality hemp oil. Otherwise, who knows what potentially dangerous substances you are giving to little Pooky?
Let’s take a good look at 10 of the biggest and best companies out there selling CBD oil for our tail-wagging buddies.
Since 2017, JustCBD has been leaders in the CBD industry. They possess a great reputation for helping men and women, along with cats and dogs efficiently fight of stress. You simply give your little rug rats Just CBD for Pets whenever you have a stranger over, there is a nasty thunderstorm outside, or the neighbor insists on lighting off fireworks.
Every Just CBD product sold is created in the U.S. with domestically grown hemp and ships all around the world from the Sunshine State. The company makes it a point to use nothing but the finest ingredients, including pure oil and concentrates, in all of its merchandise. The last thing you want to do is buy CBD snacks for pets that are produced with flavor additives or low-quality hemp oil. It is also laboratory tested to ensure users’ safety. Just CBD’s packaging is straightforward, and they make it a point to never misrepresent what exactly is used in their goods.
Another one of the factors that makes Just CBD stand apart from its competition is its reputable customer service team. Feedback can be found all over the web complimenting their well-knowledge and courteous team. After sending an email, individuals usually hear back from a representative within an hour’s time. At the same time, JustCBD offers plenty of top-notch promotions for new customers, holidays and more.
Thankfully, JustCBD for Pets works quickly the first time it is used. Unlike expensive pharmaceuticals, it doesn’t take a few days for CBD to work in an animal’s body. Overall, I was very happy with Just CBD Oil for Dogs and Cats. Tails wag and everyone can chill out. While Marley and Charlie may not be able to verbalize how they are feeling, Just CBD oil for cats and dogs can put their worried minds at peace, regardless of any uncomfortable surrounding.
From JustCBD’s Steak Bites, Chicken Biscuits, Liver Meatballs, and Chicken Meatballs for dogs to their Purr Treats and Chicken Treats for cats, all for about $20 for a 100 mg jar, it couldn’t be easier to keep your beloved pets calm and cool.
Check out Just CBD for Pets.
Without question, Charlotte’s Web is one of the biggest names in the cannabidiol industry. Working out of Boulder, Colorado, the company was formerly known as Charlotte’s Web PAWS. It was started by the Stanley brothers who created their own strain of hemp in 2012.
According to its business website, Charlotte’s Web CBD for dogs helps their minds, bodies and souls to remain calm. At the same time, it should improve a puppy’s physical and mental well-being, as it supports brain function, vision, healthy hips and joints.
Charlotte’s Web CBD for dogs focuses on staying calm, supporting the brain or easing stiffness in the joints. The powerful CBD merchandise also comes in a couple flavors, chicken and an unflavored Medium-Chain Triglyceride (MCT) oil. Ingredients include vitamin E, elderberry powder, valerian root, chamomile, and Charlotte’s Web’s own hemp extract.
Nowadays, a pet owner can have a field day on the site, as there is a wide range of CBD options available when it comes to potency and strength. A small bag of Cognition Chews for Dogs costs $19.99, and a consumer can pick up a Canine Bundle with both oil and chews for $79.98. There are even combos that mix CBD for pets with calming gummies for their owners. Unfortunately, Charlotte’s Web inventory gets a bit expensive. Buyers also complain about their complicated website, along with Charlotte’s Web slow shipping methods.
Generally speaking, consumers appreciate that every one of Charlotte’s Web’s CBD products is tested. The problem is the assessments are performed in-house and curious buyers, like me, never get to figure out how the testing is being performed. Why can’t I see the laboratory results on the company site? Is there something they don’t want the public to see? Sure, a buyer with a batch number can always contact the customer service department, but why bother? Next.
Centered in Arizona, Pure Kana sells a few different flavors and sizes of CBD for dogs, including the popular Peanut Butter & Pumpkin and Blueberry & Chicken options. A few years ago, the company became one of the most recognized names in the CBD industry thanks to its naturally grown oil tinctures from farms in Kentucky. Today, their “therapeutic and nutritional alternative” to traditional dog treats are extremely popular in domestic households.
Offering numerous benefits to pets, Pure Kana apparently assists with everything from separation anxiety to loud noises, inducing hunger, anti-aging, nausea and elasticity in the skin. They make it a point to use nothing but organic hemp that is grown in the United States.
Supposedly, PureKana has some of the best hemp growers in the world. The Pure Kana team also uses its own technology to extract the strongest hemp possible with just the right amount of THC in every piece of CBD merchandise. PureKana says everything is tested to ensure quality by preventing potentially dangerous toxins being mixed into the CBD treats for cats and dogs.
PureKana CBD for dogs is free of dairy, soy and gluten. There are no artificial flavors or preservatives. Everything is created with full spectrum CBD, meaning they have other cannabinoids, terpenes, and phytocannabinoids. Farm fresh eggs and oat flour are also found in the mix.
A 3.25 oz bag of 25 treats with 25 mg hemp extract for small dogs (up to 40 pounds) costs approximately $30 a pop. The same size selection of 50 mg CBD goodies for larger canines is about $35.
I like how Pura Kana is stringent about only working with certified companies. I also appreciate the fact that all of their CBD concoctions are tested at a third party facility. To top it off, you can easily look at the PureKana website to see certifications and read all kinds of laboratory reports.
Located in South Florida, Green Roads is a relatively small business, but is growing on a daily basis. Back in 2013, Laura Baldwin Fuentes was a pharmacist who created a smart alternative for a friend suffering from a bad opiate addiction. The pharmacist’s work paid off, as her broad spectrum formulas are now sold in thousands of Green Roads stores across the country, as they are one of the most widely seen brands of CBD sold in the U.S.
Nowadays, Green Roads strives to help men, women and pets with the top CBD products on the market. The store offers a wide variety of CBD merchandise, ranging from oils, edibles and capsules to topicals, syrups and CBD drops designed specifically for pets to keep all users nice and calm. Buyers like Green Roads’ big selection of CBD for dogs and cats. All of Green Roads CBD for our beloved fur-babies is produced domestically from pure hemp and is non GMO, soy free and nonintoxicating. Everything is mixed with MCT oil, making it easier for a pet to digest.
The smaller bottles for petite puppies and felines run approximately $20 each. Each bottle holds 30 ml of CBD with 60 mg of total CBD, equaling 2 mg per serving. The medium sized dogs get 30 ml bottles with 210 mg of CBD for up to 7 mg per serving for about $40. Finally, the big dogs that weigh more than 50 pounds get to enjoy 30 ml bottles with 600 mg of CBD, equaling roughly 20 mg per serving, for a whopping $59.99
Shoppers can keep their eyes open for more Green Roads CBD for pet products hitting the market soon, such as baked treats and soft chews. The CBD oil for pets is most effective when used on a daily basis, but it may take a few days for Marley to start enjoying the benefits of CBD.
I particularly like Green Roads’ highly informative website, such as lab reports. Plenty of essential information is not only present, but it is easy to find, unlike Charlotte’s Web. You can even scan a CBD product’s QR code to learn details about the purity and the quality of the goods?
Like so many of its competitors, HempMy Pet creates everything from naturally grown hemp in Loveland, Colorado. Since opening its doors in 2016, the company and its founder, Marc Brannigan have been on a mission to improve the daily lives of animals with handmade CBD products.
Ingredients include everything from pumpkin, apples and eggs to garbanzo bean flour, tapioca starch, mint and parsley. Each containing 2 mg of CBD, there are 25 biscuits to a bag. A person is supposed to give a pet one biscuit for every 10 pounds of the animal’s body weight. Of course, pet owners are still instructed to test the waters, as every creature is different.
Besides organic dog biscuits, Hemp My Pet sells human-grade CBD oils and tinctures that are third party tested. There are no solvents and zero pesticides. The goods are made with the CO2 extraction process, and everything is gluten free, GMO free and 100% vegan. Besides dogs and cats, their CBD pet products can also be used on horses.
Hemp My Pet offers a variety of CBD infused items, from a $25 bag of pumpkin flavored hemp extract for small dogs to a $99 jar of 500 mg CBD infused jar of coconut oil infused with CBD and a 1 oz tincture with 1000 mg of CBD for $149. An experimental consumer can grab a Wellness Bundle for $118.
What consumers don’t care for the limited number of products offered by HempMy Pet. Also, people can only get their money back within 30 days if everything remains unopened. That means if it the CBD for pets has no effect on four-legged family member, you are simply out of luck. And according to the internet, there are several buyers who have been left with the short end of the stick.
Fab CBD’s dog treats are crunchy snacks that are made without THC. Relying on a top quality formula of hemp extract, there are still dog-friendly cannabinoids present. They may not be the largest CBD retailer, but Fab CBD is continually growing. Since starting the business in 2018, the company has opened facilities in both Tampa and the U.K.
Formulas and flavor options include peanut butter apple to keep a dog nice and calm. The chicken treats are designed to help a pup’s skin and coat, while the salmon flavor is designed to stimulate the immune system. Along with CBD, they are made with the potent antioxidant turmeric, flaxseeds and milk thistle. Unfortunately, feedback all over the web criticizes Fab CBD’s pet merchandise for its taste. Apparently, owners have to hide the goodies in other food, or their dogs will never eat them.
A pet owner should give anywhere from half a CBD treat to two full ones a day to take the edge off a stressed out pup. Every selection for a dog contains 3 mg of CBD. The CBD for pets runs $34 for a 9 oz bag. If you want to get experimental, you can try all three in an $87 bundle pack.
Too bad that user feedback often claims the taste Fab CBD oil for tinctures leaves in a user’s mouth is quite disappointing. On a positive side, the business website is quite educational and impressive. It claims that their powerful CBD is grown naturally in Colorado with a full spectrum cannabinoid blend. The site is also written in everyday language that an everyday buyer, like us, can relate to, rather than trying to impress anyone with fancy jargon and technical talk.
Consumers like me also appreciate all of product photos shared by (what I assume are) real buyers. This provides plenty of color to the site that other online CBD stores lack. A buyer can discover suggestions about how much to use and how to administer their pets’ CBD online, as well as on the packaging.
Headquartered in Seattle, Canna Pet is proud to say they’re the only CBD company out there making stuff specifically for pets. Since 2013, the hemp nutrition products have been driven by years of research with thousands of animals. As a result of Canna-Pet’s proprietary formulas, dogs and cats get to efficiently manage anxiety, along with sore joint issues, cancer and other ailments resulting from old age. Today, Canna Pet is found in retail stores and vets’ offices around the world.
The product is derived from natural cannabis and uses the popular CO2 extraction method. Everything is free of animal parts, preservatives, dairy, wheat and sugar. According to the Canna-Pet website, they are the only company on the market to make pet merchandise with 25 different and terpenes. What sets Canna-Pet apart from every other name on this list is that its hemp derived goods are created to use with your pet medications and supplements.
An 8 ounce box of Canna-Biscuits for Dogs: Advanced MaxCBD formula costs about $39. Featuring a Maple Bacon flavor, there are about 40 biscuits in each box. Customer feedback seems to appreciate the big discounts that Canna Pet gives to both shelters and charity organizations. They are involved in research studies for various veterinary universities. Consumers also appreciate the 30 day money back guarantee.
I always like reading customer reviews on business sites and posting photos of dogs and cats gives them authenticity. As far as negatives, I don’t like the fact that Canna Pet doesn’t share their test results on their products or on their business website. It looks like they have something to hide. The CannaPet site says its covered by a number of different pet insurance providers. Maybe it’s just me, but I think of pharmaceuticals, not organic treatments, when dealing with insurance providers. No thanks.
Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, Fur Goodness Sake is a family business that strives to keep dogs and cats content and healthy by developing the best dietary supplements available. Labeling their product as “Calm in a bottle,” the oil is made with pure hemp seed extract.
Aiming to make anxious pets calm and cool, Hemp-Gold is third party tested, non GMO and grown in the United States with Co2 extraction. One big difference between HempGold and its competition is the fact that it should be administered to a pet on an empty stomach. Then you still shouldn’t feed the animal for at least another 60 minutes.
1 ounce of 300 mg Hemp Gold in a 30 ml bottle sells on Amazon for about $25, and a 500 mg bottle is roughly $35. Feedback often complains about the products’ high prices. The biggest issue that buyers have with Hemp Gold is made with a thick fatty substance. Even if they’re advised to apply the CBD every day, users find the instructions unclear on how much CBD oil to use at a time. Most people have to depend on trial and error to find their ideal dosages.
I also came across a few negative reviews. For starters, there is a very low amount of CBD in Hemp Gold. Also, most folks don’t follow directions and give the hemp oil to their pets with food. Not only does this cause Hemp Gold to have zero effects on cats and dogs, it also makes other animals sick. There are reports of diarrhea and even aggressiveness. Yikes!
On the bright side, HempGold comes with a money back guarantee. Users also claim that regular use improves effectiveness for reducing separation anxiety and seizures. The company even donates 10 percent of their profits to pet shelters, charities and other not for profit organizations.
CBDfx says their pet CBD oil helps dogs and cats enjoy the same calming benefits as humans. Operating in Southern California since 2015, CBDfx is undoubtably one of the most popular names in the domestic industry. Making it a point to sell nothing but naturally grown hemp products on a Kentucky farm, CBDfx now sells everything from gummies and vape juice to CBD pens, topicals, oil tinctures and various other products, including CBD for cats and dogs.
A buyer can choose from three different strengths of CBD oil for pets, 150 mg, 300 mg and a whopping 600 mg for the big dogs. A buyer can choose how to administer the CBD to his or her pup or kitty. Some drop the CBD oil right into the animal’s mouth, and others prefer to place a little on top of a meal or treats. There is no right or wrong way to give CBD to your dog or cat. Whatever you decide, you can purchase the right sized bottle to go with your fur baby.
All of the CBD in the treats for cats and dogs is extracted with care using supercritical CO2 extraction. Besides cannabinoids, the CBD oil for dogs and cats is plentiful in terpenes, amino acids and fatty acids. There are zero toxic elements, or any nasty chemicals used. Rather, every ingredient in the pet CBD oil is completely safe and natural. It has also been tested. In fact, a consumer can read about the products in reports issued by a third party laboratory.
Prices are $29.99 for 30 ml of 150 mg of CBD oil for small dogs and cats, $44.99 for a 30 ml bottle of 300 mg for medium breeds, and $69.99 for 600 mg of 30 ml of CBD designed for large pets. Buyers can experiment here and there before choosing the ideal portion of CBD to give their four-legged family members.
Highland Pharms PAWS+ CBD for dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets and horses relies on organic ingredients mixed with its own hemp extract. Despite the “Pharm” in the company’s name, Highland makes it a point to use zero pharmaceuticals in their high grade CBD products. Since a cancer patient named Luke Johnston opened it in Texas in 2015, Highland Pharms has made Olympia, Washington its headquarters.
Using organic hemp that comes from a farm in Colorado, Highland Pharms CBD for pets claims to be produced in the best natural conditions possible. What supposedly sets Highland Pharms apart from their competition is their full spectrum hemp extract that has all the same cannabinoids and phytonutrients as hemp plants.
The Highland Pharms website claims that ALL of their products for sale can be used for all pets, ranging from dogs and cats to horses and ostriches. I don’t know about you, but I just don’t see myself, or even my Labrador retriever taking the same hemp extract as the Black Stallion or Seabiscuit.
Highland Pharms PAWS+ CBD oil for pets is available in two sizes. The 25 ml bottle of 100 mg runs $24.95. The same size with 250 mg costs $39.95. There is also a total of 60 small cheddar flavored pet treats in a 5 mg of CBD for animals under 25 pounds for $59.95 and a 30 count of large pet treats with 15 mg of CBD for larger animals. The ingredients include dried cheddar cheese, yellow peas, potatoes and cranberries.
Besides the confusing pharmaceutical-like name, what turned me off the most about Highland Pharms is its business website. The pages are anything but user-friendly. Also, I am certain that tinctures are not the easiest way to give CBD to a pet. Why not mix it into an edible and make it fun to give the little munchkin a delightful bite?
Want to know more about CBD treats for cats and dogs? Look no further…
Yes, CBD treats are safe for both dogs and cats. Just look for CBD merchandise with less than .3% of tetrahydrocannabidol, a.k.a. THC. That way, you never have to worry about your little munchkin getting high and experiencing any unwanted psychoactive effects or even the munchies. While you can always read books and trustworthy websites for advice, you should always talk to a vet about what CBD products and dosages to use.
When shopping for the best CBD oil for pets available, be sure to look for natural CBD treats. It is also important that all the goodies are made in the U.S. with no additives or chemicals, such as pesticides. It is also important to administer the right dose to your cat or dog. While some boxes and blogs give directions, it is best to experiment a little until you find the right dosage for your furry little buddy.
Once you give your beloved pet a CBD treat, it will start to kick in within 10 to 30 minutes. A person can then expect CBD and its positive effects on dogs and cats to last for approximately 6 hours at a time. Regardless, the CBD will stay in your pet’s body for several days. Generally speaking, you should give your pet 1 to 2 mg of CBD on a daily basis. It depends if you are dealing with a 10 pound kitty or a 120 pound Labrador retriever. With a bit of trial and error, you’ll have no trouble figuring out how much CBD oil to use on little Athena and hefty Precious.
When looking to buy CBD oil for cats and dogs, it is crucial to know where it was made. A consumer can only trust merchandise created in the United States. Otherwise, you could be spending your money on nothing more than expensive water, or worse. Your beloved pet’s safety may come into question. Also, be sure to look for the CBD product’s ingredients on the package, or at least on the company website. If you cannot find them, beware! The manufacturer may have something to hide.
CBD products for sale have a reputation for helping dogs and cats to relax, whether the animal is scared of a thunderstorm or going through separation anxiety. When you need to get your four-legged monster to chill out, ask your veterinarian about CBD treats to manage stress in your pet.
The brains of cats and dogs have cannabinoid receptors. As a matter of fact, the furry animals possess more cannabinoid receptors than we do. In other words, legal CBD products are often more useful to our pets’ physical, emotional and mental states than they are for men and women.
While CBD can have wonderful effects on pets, you should not give any products made for humans to a dog or a cat. Most of the CBD goods for humans are made with much higher concentration of cannabidiol. That’s means you could end up giving your four-legged family member a bit too much CBD. It’s okay, nothing bad will happen. In fact, it is not possible to overdose on CBD. It is just a shame to waste such a valuable product.
The best CBD products available, including CBD for pets, is created with natural hemp, as opposed to marijuana. As a result, the merchandise contains less than .3% THC, which is nearly enough to give an animal the euphoric high associated with mary jane. Meanwhile, all the hemp should be grown organically on domestic farms and thoroughly tested to ensure safety and effectiveness.
No, it is now completely legal to buy and administer CBD products for pets in all 50 states, thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill. You just have to make sure that the CBD goods are derived from the hemp plant, as opposed to marijuana. If not, the pet snacks may have more than .3% THC. Not only is that illegal in many states, but the CBD treats may make an animal high. As long as your CBD items stem from domestic hemp, you and your pets have nothing to fear.
As a consumer and a caring pet owner, it is up to you to get nothing but the best for your dogs and cats. Fortunately, getting the top CBD treats for your furry little guys and gals couldn’t be any easier. There is a seemingly endless supply of information and products on the internet. That’s why it’s always smart to speak to a veterinarian to confirm that you are getting a high quality CBD oil for a good price. While you certainly don’t want to purchase the cheapest supplies on the market, there is no need to spend an arm and a leg to get exactly what you want and need.
CBD is often extremely effective when it comes to keeping a pet calm and cool. Maybe it is during a terrible storm or perhaps while there are strangers walking around the house. Whatever the case may be, the right CBD treats can help an animal relax by binding to its serotonin receptors. Daily stressors won’t magically disappear, but the right CBD products are known to help dogs and cats relax.
Yes, it is crucial that you only buy CBD pet treats that have undergone testing at a third party lab. Look for a laboratory’s name on the packaging, along with the ingredients. You should also make sure that you only purchase CBD merchandise that stems from hemp and are made in the United States. Otherwise, you have no idea what you are putting into your system. Your overall safety can come into question. Thankfully, it couldn’t be easier for you the consumer to do a little homework online to find the best CBD products for cats and dogs.
It is always best to keep your CBD products protected from light and heat. Store them in a dark and cool setting, like your fridge or freezer. By keeping everything in a controlled environment, the CBD goodies for your puppies and kitties will have much longer shelf lives. While a refrigerator can help the best CBD for dogs and cats last for roughly 6 weeks at a time, a freezer can keep everything potent, as well as tasty for about 6 months.
No, the world of CBD retail is full of various products for dogs, cats, horses and other animals. While there are plenty of recognizable CBD brands out there that are respectable, there are even more CBD vendors that simply cannot be trusted. It is up to you, the buyer, to find a reliable CBD for pets by doing a little homework. Make sure everything has the ingredients listed and was manufactured in the United States. Otherwise, your safety could come into question. It also vital that your CBD goods stem from hemp, as opposed to THC-rich marijuana. Don’t be afraid to test different CBD items. What may work wonders on your neighbor’s cat may have zero effect on your dog, and vice versa.
Read MorePersonally, I have been relying on powerful CBD vape oil and other cannabidiol goodies for years. Long before it became a trendy multibillion dollar industry that is legal in all 50 states, I was in the progressive state of Colorado. That meant I could take full advantage of CBD’s soothing effects on the mind and body.
Since 2018, the federal Farm Bill decriminalized CBD and other industrial hemp across the nation. Of course, hemp is not the same as marijuana. Even if they both come from the plants of the cannabis genus, hemp-derived CBD has less than 0.3% tetrahydrocannabidol, or THC. This is the psychoactive compound that gives people the euphoric “high” associated with marijuana. CBD from hemp actually has the opposite effect, helping to bring people down and mellow them out.
Considering that I used to live in Colorado and am extremely familiar with so much of the hemp industry, it is fair to consider me a seasoned pro on CBD and the different tools used to take advantage of all its positive effects. After all, it is a natural compound that helps folks relax by stimulating serotonin in their brain cells. I know some of the best CBD companies that I can trust. I also know some of the smartest ways to relax before bed. That way, I can experience 8 hours of uninterrupted rest. I then wake up looking and feeling completely refreshed. Handling a long day at the office is then a piece of cake.
While edibles, like CBD gummies, are almost always fun and tasty, a tincture goes to work right away in a user’s system. However, it is the best CBD vape oil for sale that comes in a delicious line of flavors for vaping devices, like popular e-cigarettes. The best CBD oil vape on the market allows people to efficiently manage their stress. As a direct result, individuals can feel at ease in no time.
I took my time and evaluated 10 of the biggest names in the growing CBD world. Let’s take a look at my personal thoughts and comparisons of each retailer’s CBD vaporizer oil.
Today’s industry leader is Just CBD. Since 2017, the company from South Florida has been selling the top CBD oil around the world. In my personal opinion, what allows JustCBD to stand above its competition is the CBD products’ quality. Every piece of CBD merchandise is completely sourced from domestic hemp. It is also third party tested, just to ensure consumers’ safety. All of the CBD vape oil is created from 99% pure CBD isolate. The pure CBD oil is also non GMO and completely vegan.
Even if you gave up smoking cigarettes and/or pot a long time ago, no worries. JustCBD sells prefilled vape oil cartridges that have no tobacco or marijuana whatsoever. One of the things that I like so much about them is how easy it is to toss a CBD vape pen into my pocket, if not my wife’s purse whenever we go to an outdoor concert.
My vape oil comes in 60 ml bottles, while my pen distributes 200 mg of CBD. But what I really love is the three tasty flavors that are available from JustCBD. Whether we are talking about Wild Watermelon, Succulent Strawberry or Berry Blue, I thoroughly enjoy the flavor every time I vape, whether I stick to one a week or switch back and forth from one choice to another on a daily basis.
I also like that I can pick what color vape pen to use. I now have a large selection of black, red, blue, gold, silver and more. I get to choose a different one almost every day of the week. Regardless of the color, I found that Just CBD oil vape pens are simple to use and reasonably priced.
Since I am always on the go, I like how JustCBD’s oil vape pens for sale do not need to be plugged in for more than 2 or 3 hours at a time. To top it off, Just CBD’s high quality pens that allow people to enjoy flavorful vape oil cost less than $20 apiece. You just can’t beat that. Of course, many folks enjoy vaping their powerful pens while in bed. Either way, the right CBD vape oil always helps me to chill out. Meanwhile, the customer feedback is responsive and professional.
Just CBD carries the best CBD vape oil for busy people, like me, that are always on the go.
Check out JustCBD Vape Oil.
Like all of their products, Charlotte’s Web CBD oil is designed to aid individuals with daily pressure. In 2012, the company was created by the Stanley Brothers in Colorado. It was named after Charlotte Figi, a 6-year-old girl whose life was immediately changed by the CBD oil benefits. Within a year, Charlotte’s Web became pioneers in the growing industry. It didn’t take long for Charlotte’s Web to become one of the most recognized brands in the world after they were featured all over newspapers and prime time television.
The business website states that all of its CBD oil is intended to put users at ease, while making it easier to concentrate. Marketing to customers with active lifestyles and their daily stressors, it is available is several forms. That’s why I decided to buy CBD oil from Charlotte’s Web and give it a try.
Charlotte’s Web CBD oil does work. I used a tincture to drop the CBD under my tongue. I did feel more relaxed and in a relatively short amount of time and the overall quality of my sleep did improve. Of course, it is not the best CBD oil around. There are certainly stronger, as well as tastier options out there.
As a consumer, I personally like the versatility in the company’s products and prices. You can purchase10 mg, 25 mg and 100 mg per different serving sizes. They cost approximately $40 to $300 a pop. It all depends on how much CBD you want. Are you a beginner or a seasoned professional, like me, when it comes to CBD oil?
I did find some negative reviews online that cursed Charlotte’s Web. Buyers were not happy with their slow shipping practices. Also, the customer support is not too responsive. Although the wait didn’t bother me, I found this somewhat surprising, considering Charlotte’s Web is supposed to be leaders in the industry.
Working out of Arizona, PureKana’s organic CBD oils are supposed to help users deal with aggravation on a regular basis, whether it is at the office or dealing with the unruly kids at home. Sourced from quality hemp growers on farms in Kentucky and manufactured with high-grade CO2 equipment, PureKana CBD oils use patented technology to create their own products. They make it a point to steer clear of all toxic elements, like chemical herbicides and dangerous pesticides.
All of PureKana’s CBD oil is full spectrum, meaning it is made from organic plant-based compounds, such terpenes and flavonoids. It is also supposed to target a user’s endocannabinoid system, having positive effects on the body. Their website claims that its CBD oil helps to make people feel better by making it easier to become calm and cool.
I certainly like how PureKana provides customer safety by getting their CBD merchandise certified and tested by third party testing facility, ProVerde Labs. At the same time, everything in stock is 100% vegan and free of pesticides, GMOs, fertilizers and all other chemicals. There is also zero THC isolate in PureKana’s entire line of CBD.
I looked at PureKana’s vanilla and mint flavored CBD oils that are now available online in different size bottles, ranging from a $54 300 mg bottle to a whopping 5000 mg container for almost $400.
According to user feedback I found all over the web, PureKana vegan CBD oils don’t bring anything new to the table. Regardless, I like PureKana’s informative website. I appreciate how it actually teaches people to use its CBD oil. At the end of the day, PureKana is a quality company with respectable goods and a professional website. Unfortunately, it is neither the most powerful nor the least expensive CBD oil available.
Since being founded by Laura Baldwin Fuentes, a pharmacist who was attempting to get a friend off of drugs in 2013, Green Roads has been successfully operating in Tampa. These days, Green Roads strives to improve individual’s overall wellbeing with the pride of its retail line, CBD oils. Of course, Green Roads has plenty of similar items for sale, including CBD edibles, topicals and capsules. They even sell CBD for dogs and cats that freak out from thunderstorms and experience separation anxiety.
Green Roads is now among the most widely used CBD retailers in the United States. As a matter of fact, its broad spectrum formulas are now sold in thousands of different stores across the nation. Made in the USA from hemp, all of Green Roads’ CBD merchandise is supposedly crafted with innovative extraction methods.
Personally, I like that Green Roads posted its lab sheets on their website. A buyer can also learn all the basics about its CBD oil, such as the proper dosing information, online. It certainly appears that Green Roads strives to help its consumers.
What I do not care for however is the fact that Green Roads’ exclusive formulas for the CBD oils are too private. Besides the fact that everything is extracted from 100% industrial hemp for a pure product, a consumer like me cannot find about the vape oils’ extraction process online. To this day, I am still not sure how the oil is made. It almost feels like Green Roads has something to hide. At least buyers can take comfort in knowing that everything is laboratory tested for safety.
If you do appreciate the taste of Green Roads’ oils, you can pick up everything from a 100 mg for about $24 to 1000 mg, 1500 mg and even 3500 mg bottles. They also come in boxes of six and twenty. Even if they boast about winning a cannabis award, both the price and the quality of Green Roads CBD oil are decent, but nothing to write home about.
Lord Jones in Southern California has been creating expensive and fashionable CBD goodies and marketing them to the upper class since 2016. Reading up on them, I discovered that the Royal Oil is targeting “CBD purists” because the high concentrations of CBD in its broad spectrum formula are supposed to help users feel calm.
Lord Jones Royal Oil is made with two ingredients, broad spectrum CBD oil from domestically cultivated hemp and grape seed oil. It is free of all additives, colorings and flavorings, along with sugar, gluten and alcohol. Lord Jones Royal Oil is also vegan friendly. Too bad reviews discuss its bad taste. Users are told to sprinkle some of the liquid onto guacamole to improve its flavor.
Every 1000 mg bottle of Lord Jones’ CBD oil contains roughly 40 mg of CBD per full dropper. Not only is it extremely potent, it is also supposed to possess the smell of cannabis. After being lab tested for purity, the Royal Oil sells online for $100 for a one time purchase. A consumer can save a few bucks by subscribing.
The biggest selling point for Lord Jones Royal Oil is that it can be taken orally and applied topically to either the face or the body. When taking it by mouth, a person is supposed to hold the oil under his or her tongue for at least 60 seconds before swallowing the CBD. Customer feedback points out that the Royal oil absorbs rather quickly into the skin. People’s skin then feels soft, but it isn’t a big deal.
The only problem with Lord Jones Royal Oil is you end up paying too much for nothing more than a fancy package. That’s okay if you live in Beverly Hills, Manhattan or Boca Raton. But a majority of the economy doesn’t need to throw away hard earned money for a mediocre CBD product.
Fab CBD has been making a name for itself around the world since 2018. Based in Tampa (like Green Roads) with financial offices in the United Kingdom, they are not as big as JustCBD or Charlotte’s Web. Yet, Fab CBD’s organic hemp does have a top notch reputation.
As far as the oils themselves, they are all full spectrum, vegan, and non GMO. A consumer can choose Natural, Berry, Vanilla, Mint and Citrus in three different sizes, 300 mg, 600 mg and 1200 mg in 30 ml bottles. The prices range from $39 to $99 a pop.
I like Fab CBD due to the company’s simplicity. Rather than selling dozens of different gummies, shakes, tinctures, soaps, vape pens, pet treats, isolate and more, they stick to three main products: a sublingual oil, an edible and a cream. That usually means they care more about selling quality merchandise than a handful of mediocre goods.
All the vivid pictures of customers on display on the company website caught my eye. I am not sure if they are real or came from a stock photography company, like Shutterstock. Regardless, the photos give the site a personal feeling, rather than seeing nothing but doctors and scientists in lab coats. I also appreciate how Fab CBD shares its laboratory reports from ProVerde.
Fab CBD oil’s prices aren’t too shabby, making it ideal for a first time user who is merely testing the waters. I suspect that’s how the company has been getting noticed in the competitive CBD industry. I am curious to see if the company keeps everything inexpensive. If so, I expect Fab CBD to grow larger in the next year or two.
When I first started doing my homework on Fab CBD, the company website was down, which I take as a huge red flag. At the same time, user feedback claims that Fab CBD oil is often sold out. While that isn’t always a negative, I consider it unprofessional for any business to be unprepared for consumer demands.
After opening for business in Southern California in 2018, Premium Jane grew into one of the most prominent CBD businesses in the nation. Now working with a team of agricultural experts and microbiologists in Arizona, Premium Jane’s biggest selling point is that there is no THC whatsoever found in any of their products, including hemp oil, edibles, creams and soft gel capsules.
According to their website, Premium Jane is on a mission to “provide the absolute best hemp oil extract on the market.” Perhaps that is why the hemp oil is made from all natural hemp. It is also vegan and non GMO.
Working towards their goal, all of Premium Jane’s oil is produced from industrial cannabis on special farms in Oregon. There are no chemicals, such as fertilizers and pesticides, used to grow the hemp. Before being tested for purity and safety, the crops are picked for the highest amounts of cannabinoids to supply users with the best encounters imaginable. Using ProVerde Labs to test its merchandise, Premium Jane’s Hemp Oil is both safe and efficient.
All of Premium Jane’s CBD hemp oil is sold in tinctures, allowing users to drop small amounts of the liquid under their tongues. Upon occasion, users have been known to put a drop or two on their food or mixed into their drinks. The three flavors, mint, citrus and natural are available in three different strengths, 300 mg, 600 mg and 1000 mg. Everything comes in 30 ml bottles that are placed inside fancy colored boxes. The prices are $48, $85 and $124 per oil tincture. These options give buyers the freedom to choose their preferred flavor, as well as potency.
Folks are said to feel relaxed, but not sluggish. While reviews claim that the hemp oil tastes good and the price is fair, the biggest struggle that Premium Jane faces is its lack of name recognition.
Founded by bar owners and business partners Mike Sill and Beau Schmitt trying to cope with stress, Sunday Scaries focuses on CBD as a natural option for relaxation. Based out of San Diego, Sunday Scaries CBD oil with vitamins is extracted from natural hemp in Colorado. It is then marketed to individuals having trouble falling asleep, dealing with long plane rides and trying to enhance their meditation practices.
Sunday Scaries’ tinctures possess no THC. The company’s extract is made with coconut oil, along with vitamin B12 to calm one’s nervous system and vitamin D3 to regulate a user’s immune system.
Sunday Scaries’ CBD oil tinctures come in 500 mg bottles, and a user gets approximately 10 mg per serving. The price is a bit high at $64, but folks can feel at ease with a money back guarantee. I especially appreciate that the ingredients, such as broad spectrum CBD oil and organic stevia, can be found on every bottle.
Customer reviews praise Sunday Scaries for their prompt answers supplied to questions submitted online. Personally, I like how the company uses a blog to educate potential and return customers on the benefits of CBD. Folks can easily sign online and discover how CBD can help travelers suffering from flight anxiety and actors with stage freight.
Consumers can feel safe that everything is tested for purity by a third party, Infinite Chemical Analysis Labs. Still, I do not care for the fact that Sunday Scaries doesn’t share its extraction process with the general public. I wouldn’t mind knowing how my CBD oil is produced.
Negative reviews found online discuss added sugar, flavorings and sweeteners to Sunday Scaries’ inventory, including their oil tinctures. Buyers also want to see higher concentrations available, as the maximum dosage is a mere 50 mg infusion of CBD and caffeine. No thanks. Since when does caffeine help with relaxation?
CBDfx has been around for a relatively long time compared to much of their competition. Since 2015, they have been selling top notch tools for vaping. Today, the company carries a huge selection of full spectrum CBD vape juices, along with other goodies ranging from less potent edibles and drinks to facial masks and CBD for pets. Using the slogan “Feel the Difference,” CBDfx is often considered one of leaders in the competitive CBD industry.
Everything comes from natural hemp that is farmed in the U.S. with organic plant based ingredients. I also like that the company relies on an eco-friendly extraction and chemical free method to make its merchandise. However, I was turned off when I couldn’t find much about who is doing all of the farming for CBDfx and how. What farming procedures are practiced?
After being tested by a third party, PharmLabs San Diego, the results of all CBDfx’s products are shared on the internet. These reports include a “Cannabinoid Profile Analysis” for every item sold. Exactly how much CBD is in the vape oil? What about THC and other cannabinoids, like CBN? Unfortunately, the lab reports for their vaporizer oils don’t mention potential contaminants, such as heavy metals. Is there something to hide?
All of CBDfx’s vape juice is full spectrum, meaning it has plenty of cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids mixed in with its CBD. User feedback often discusses vape oil’s dark color and distinct hemp odor. CBDfx does its best to cover it up with its own flavors, like Blue Raspberry, Wild Watermelon, Strawberry Kiwi, Fruity Cereal, and Strawberry Milk.
CBDfx’s vape juice starts at about $30 for 250 mg in a 30 ml bottle to a 500 mg bottle of 10 ml CBD oil vape additive for roughly $75, and everything in between. CBDfx even sells six packs of refills for many of its vape juice options.
Since the year 2015, Highland Pharms has been successfully operating as one of the most successful CBD retailers in the nation. Although they were created in Texas, they now work from Olympia, Washington and sell natural hemp from Colorado.
Despite their name, Highland Pharms markets its “Pharmaceutical Grade Hemp” as the opposite of a medical company. Personally, I find that a little confusing. I assume countless shoppers feel the same way. There isn’t even any info supplied online to separate it from prescription drugs and industrial hemp. Huh? If they’re making the claim, I want to see the facts backed up. At least their products are non GMO.
Perhaps Highland Pharms greatest asset is its organic ingredients for everything. Most commonly used in vape pens, their vape oil is created from the high quality extract of high grade hemp plants grown on a specialized farm. It’s also made with a veggie glycerin base and natural flavoring. I appreciate the fact that everyone of Highland Pharms’ vape oils is tested for purity by a third party laboratory, ProVerde. The lab also confirms there are no unwanted contaminants, like pesticides or herbicides.
The biggest turn off for a writer like me is all the little typos on Highland Pharms’ business website. It’s just not professional. Can you really trust a vendor that doesn’t care about its grammar? To top it off, there are plenty of product descriptions that appear to be partially written. Huh?
A 15 ml bottle holding 250 mg of Highland Pharms HEMP Plus Vape Oil retails for $40. Buyers can also pick from many sizes and the milligrams up to a 30 ml jar of 1500 mg vape juice with terpenes for a whopping $180. At least folks can choose fun flavors, including mint and strawberry, to take the edge off after a grueling day.
How often do you see men and women enjoying vaporizer pens? You may be at a concert or a sporting event. Maybe it’s the beach or a public park. Whatever the case may be, hemp derived CBD vape oil is as popular as ever. Folks now have a handful of options to choose from when it comes to CBD, and plenty of them choose vaping to quickly put their bodies at ease. There is now a seemingly endless supply of vape pens and flavors for sale. Here are some of the most frequently asked questions and answers when it comes to vaping CBD oil.
If you search the web, you will see that you are not the only person to wonder “Does CBD vape oil have THC?” If you are not familiar, THC is the chemical known to give a user the euphoric high that people normally associate with marijuana. To answer the question, yes, hemp derived CBD vape pens do have a small amount of THC. However, the CBD must have less than 0.3% of THC to be classified as hemp, and that is not nearly enough to get a person high.
Yes, CBD oil can easily be vaped by an individual. In fact, there are countless people out there who think vaporizer pens are the smartest way to get their CBD. Not only is vaping extremely easy, the CBD takes effect in one’s body in just seconds’ time. Stress quickly fades away and the body relaxes, making it effortless to enjoy a peaceful state of mind. Too bad CBD gummies, protein bars and other edibles can’t say that.
Yes, thanks to the Hemp Farming Act of 2018, hemp is no longer classified as a Schedule I substance. As long as the vaporizer oils from the cannabis plant have under 0.3% THC, the government and its federal laws see it as a farming commodity. After all, that is not nearly enough THC to make people high. That means it is now completely legal to buy hemp-derived CBD products in all 50 states.
Unfortunately, there is no one answer to “How much CBD oil should I take?” Every user’s system is different, as it has a unique amount of cannabinoid receptors. At the same time, almost every CBD product and delivery device are unique. A 200 pound man using a vape oil pen with a 510 VV Twist battery would have the same experience as a 100 pound woman smoking a dry herb vaporizer with a 2200 mAh battery. The smartest thing to do is start out slowly with trial and error until you find your ideal amount of oil and utensil for vaping.
The top CBD vape oils are made with completely organic ingredients that stem from the hemp plant. It’s cannabinoids go to work on a person’s CB1 and CB2 receptors. As a direct result, the body tends to experience physical, mental and emotional stability. Meanwhile, high quality CBD oil vapes go to work in a user’s system much quicker than many of the other popular CBD products on the market, such as gummies.
CBD vape oil relaxes users, as it has less than 0.3 percent THC. That is not enough THC to give a user a euphoric high. That means an individual will have no trouble accomplishing work or even operating machinery. Yet, the CBD oil can easily and safely help a user manage his or her stress, along with other physical and emotional conditions. Best of all, CBD oil vapes take effect in the body much quicker than other products, like CBD edibles.
While it doesn’t occur often, people taking CBD vape oil can fail a drug test. It is important to realize that all hemp derived CBD can possess up to 0.3% THC. No, the little amount of THC won’t give you the euphoric high that people generally associate with marijuana. Regardless, CBD vaporizer oil can remain in a user’s body for approximately a week. That’s why it may be important to inform an employer that you rely on CBD oil if you are subject to drug testing at work.
Pens for CBD vape oil are vaporizer tools that look like a writing pen. The market now has a seemingly endless supply of the CBD pens for vaping, offering consumers a large assortment of sizes, shapes and colors ranging from black and red to light blue and rose gold. Some vaping devices are disposable, while others are reusable. Most vaporizers come with built-in batteries.
When the time comes to buy high quality CBD vape oil, it is important to purchase merchandise that is not only effective, but also completely safe for users. That means making sure the CBD goods are extracted from cannabis with zero additives. It should also be manufactured in the United States and tested in a lab to ensure its purity. The last thing you want is pesticides in your hemp products.
The prices of disposable vape oil pens vary. Some companies charge consumers more than $50 a pop, which is a bit ridiculous. You can get everything you need for about $20. There is no need to spend any more of your hard earned cash on a vaporizer pen that will soon have to be replaced with a new one. Look for vendors online that don’t have the large overhead of a store on the street. As we’ve learned from Amazon, that savings can be passed to you. Why not save a few bucks and order from a reliable CBD vendor online in the States? Just because a CBD product is inexpensive, it doesn’t have to be cheap.
Since every shopper is different, there is not one CBD vaporizer pen that is considered the best. Some people like big and powerful vapes throughout the day, while others prefer to have a little taste of strawberry cheesecake before hitting the sack. When looking to buy a CBD pen for vaping, you should definably get one with a long battery life, like 2 hours. You don’t want to stop and recharge your vape pen every 30 minutes. Thanks to a LED light on the battery, you will know when the pen is done charging.
According to user feedback, it couldn’t be easier to use a vape pen to enjoy CBD. All people have to do is turn on their pens and unlock them. Then users push and hold the button down while inhaling the CBD. A person can slowly inhale the CBD and enjoy its flavor, or quickly suck it into their systems for a quick hit before releasing the button. You will have to experiment with a vape oil pen to figure out how much you want to inhale. At least there is nothing to worry about, as it is simply not possible to overdose on CBD.
To alter the intensity of one’s vape, a person twists the voltage adjuster found on the bottom of the pen. The larger number you set it on, the stronger your vape will be, and vice versa. Just make sure you never exceed the maximum voltage level suggested or you may quickly burn out your battery.
Thankfully, no. A person can enjoy all the vape oil he or she wants and never have to worry about the nasty stink of smoke or tar. The CBD itself actually has no odor. It’s the vape oils that can possess slight smells, but they are usually flavored. That means you can use your vaporizer pen in your home and car. You never have to worry about your breath or emptying a gross ashtray.

In today’s progressive culture, I know a thing or two about the best CBD products. After all, I have been relying on my trusty CBD oil tincture for the last couple of years. It helps me to relax, whether I am stuck at the office, on a family vacation with rowdy kids or simply having trouble falling asleep at night.
While there are certainly plenty of powerful CBD products on the market for the new decade, like tasty gummies and potent vapes, my personal favorite is a CBD tincture. Made from cannabidiol, a tincture of CBD works extremely quickly to relax a user’s body and mind.
The finest CBD tincture for sale can now be bought without spending an arm and a leg. Then the CBD can be dropped into my mouth to be quickly absorbed into my bloodstream without any trouble. CBD tinctures are made with alcohol and water. The liquids are used to obtain essential compounds found in cannabis. If you are looking for a euphoric high, look somewhere else. The top CBD tincture is often used to counter the unwanted euphoric highs associated with marijuana and THC.
The reason I appreciate oil tinctures so much is because they are perfect for getting just the right amount of CBD to relieve mental, physical and emotional stress. The most commonly seen tinctures are made with natural oils and flavors. They are also extremely simple to use. A tincture of CBD is so little, you can toss it into your pocket or purse in no time. That means you can have a reliable tincture with you whenever you desperately need to chill out.
Let’s take a good look at ten companies that now sell CBD oil tinctures and compare the products for overall quality and customer satisfaction.
Since the year 2017, JustCBD has made it a priority to be transparent with each consumer. Every CBD tincture sold at Just CBD is thoroughly tested in a lab. It is also completely sourced from hemp, as opposed to marijuana containing lots of THC. The company’s reliable CBD tinctures contain roughly 75% alcohol to help individuals manage their daily stressors, from driving to work to relaxing after dinner.
Every Just CBD tincture is extremely pure. At the same time, it couldn’t be any easier to take the CBD. The liquids can be easily dropped under a user’s tongue, if not mixed into a smoothie or cookie. When dosing, you simply increase or decrease the number of drops used until you figure out your ideal measurement of CBD. Remember, what may be perfect for one, may not have the same effects on another. It may take a bit of trial and error, but you will have no trouble deciding the smartest CBD dosage for your system.
JustCBD now carries a large inventory and vast selection of CBD oil tinctures. Maybe you are searching a pure tincture that is especially thick. If so, Just CBD’s organic Honey Tinctures may be exactly what you have been looking for. The vendor carries the standard MCT tincture in two different flavors. Will you choose coconut or natural hemp? You can also buy their tinctures in a plethora of sizes, ranging from 50 mg to 1,000 mg and even 1,500 mg tinctures for the seasoned pros. Every dropper can be used for approximately 10 mg. For example, a person can enjoy roughly 100 drops after purchasing a 1,000 mg bottle of real CBD.
Besides tinctures, JustCBD has earned a positive reputation for selling the top edibles, from CBD gummies to protein bars, along with CBD oil, vape cartridges and pet treats. Grown in the United States and operating out of South Florida, Just CBD makes it a point to ship to every state in the nation, as well as overseas. To top it off, JustCBD has a fantastic customer service platform. Their representatives are always knowledgeable, polite and friendly, making suggestions without becoming too pushing. Check out a Just CBD Oil Tincture today.
Charlotte’s Web is one of the better known companies in the competitive industry. Growing, manufacturing and selling its goods from Boulder, Colorado, Charlotte’s Web stocks different sizes and strengths of tincture oil. The higher the dose, the better a user should be able to manage his or her stress. As far as your options of flavors, consumers get to choose between two: mint chocolate and olive oil.
Made with high CBD content strains, Charlotte’s web CBD oil was developed by the Stanley Brothers. In 2012, the team of six siblings crossed different hemp strains to develop their own product. Today, oil tinctures from Charlotte’s Web are created by extracting CBD with CO2 and a solvent that is known as isopropyl alcohol, or IPA. The CBD is them mixed with olive oil, if not medium chain triglycerides, also known as MCT oil, a unique modification of fractionated coconut oil that doesn’t stiffen up at room temperature.
While Charlotte’s Web makes it point to say every one of its CBD products are tested internally, they never claim how or even who is performing the tests. There are no laboratory results posted anywhere on the company website, which I found both surprising and disappointing. I could always call them up or send them a message online, but that is both annoying and time consuming, especially when the results are only made available with a specific batch number. That means you must purchase a product before you can learn specifics about overall quality. Doh! I would rather deal with a business that has already posted its lab reports.
I tried Charlotte’s Web CBD oil tinctures, as the website markets to busy individuals who are always on the go, like me. While the tinctures didn’t make me feel sluggish, I had to ingest more than two drops at a time to feel completely relaxed after a long day at the office. In other words, they are not the strongest product around. There is one other thing worth pointing out, I didn’t like that their site claimed that its mint chocolate “contains no actual chocolate.” While that may be a positive for dieters, it made me think. What chemicals are in the actual product to give it a chocolate flavor?
Located in Scottsdale, Arizona, Pure Kana targets men and women trying to deal with everyday stress in one’s personal and professional lives. Even senior citizens are targeted. The company actually gained its reputable name in the CBD world because of its oil tinctures that are grown organically on special farms in Kentucky.
Pure Kana takes pride in only using domestically grown hemp and its own technology, along with the common substance CO2 in its extraction process. Supposedly, they have an amazing relationship with the country’s top hemp growers. Whenever too much THC ends up in the mix, it is immediately filtered out. They also claim that their products are thoroughly examined for quality and never contain any toxic elements of any kind, including pesticides and potentially dangerous fertilizers.
According to its website, every PureKana tincture interacts with a user’s body to help fight off stress. Apparently, a user will experience no trouble relaxing, which can be great for improving your quality of sleep. The better rest you get, the more energized you can feel the next day at work.
Consumers like me appreciate that Pure Kana makes it a point to only work with certified companies. The various CBD products are also tested at a 3rd party lab. That means I can feel safe that I am not ingesting anything crazy into my system. Meanwhile, every CBD oil tincture contains zero THC isolate or genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
I especially like how any person can look on their website to find lab reports and certificates. The site also guides individuals on exactly how to take a tincture. I tried a PureKana 600 mg 30 ml (10 oz) natural CBD tincture. The company’s marketing campaign is correct. The cannabis is high quality and contains the natural flavor of hemp. As far as I can tell, PureKana meets all industry standards and keeps customers happy.
Based in Florida, Green Roads has been operating as a small family owned business since 2013. A pharmacist named Laura Baldwin Fuentes was looking to develop a safe cure for a buddy’s opiate addiction. She was successful. These days, Green Roads is on a similar mission to help people with some of the best CBD merchandise available, such as powerful oil tinctures and other CBD merchandise, including a wide variety of topicals, capsules, syrups, coffees and tea. They also have an entire line dedicated to keeping beloved pets calm and cool.
There is no question that Green Roads has grown into one of the most popular brands of CBD goodies, including oil tinctures. As a matter of fact, the companies broad spectrum formulas are now sold in thousands of stores around the nation. Everything is domestically grown, non GMO and hemp derived. Consumers can pick from a large selection, ranging from 100 mg to 1500 mg and a whopping 3500 mg bottle of CBD oil.
While the company website isn’t shy about discussing its innovate extraction methods, I like how easy it is to locate and read important information. I had no problem finding straightforward facts, along with important laboratory results about its products. A buyer can even scan a QR code on the CBD merchandise’s packaging. How cool is that?
What I don’t care for is Green Roads’ discretion when it comes to its tinctures. Exactly how are they made? What are the specific extraction and formulation processes? Fortunately, every CBD product sold at Green Roads is laboratory tested by a third party, so I could have worse to complain about. Every product’s lab sheet is even posted online. Too bad Green Roads oil tinctures are a bit more expensive than a majority of its competitors.
Working out of Southern California, Lord Jones has been producing high end CBD goods since 2016. Marketing to the upper class, Lord Jones hemp derived CBD tinctures are meant to be both fashionable and elegant. Sure, it looks nice. But the consumer ends up paying for nothing more than fancy packaging.
Every hemp derived CBD tincture is produced to give users a peaceful frame of mind. Created by an experienced group of specialists in the cannabis industry, Lord Jones’ CBD products are created to help folks manage all types of stress. The tinctures are said to be strong and last for hours at a time.
What kind of flavors are available for Lord Jones hemp derived CBD tinctures? There are two options to choose from, Peppermint and Lemon. Peppermint’s ingredients include grape seed oil, hempseed oil and peppermint oil, along with potent hemp oil and stevia leaf extract. The Lemon flavors contains grape seed oil and lemon oil to go with the hemp oil and stevia leaf extract derived from quality hemp. The public seems to prefer the Peppermint flavor.
Like its competitors, Lord Jones’ CBD merchandise is produced in the United States and laboratory tested for safety. However, not every store sells CBD with zero THC. There is no gluten, sugar or alcohol either.
Rather, every Lord Jones hemp derived CBD tincture contains 250 mg per bottle and a dropper for roughly 10 mg of CBD at a time. In other words, you get approximately 25 drops per bottle. I have read that Lord Jones recently released 1000 mg bottles with 40 mg droppers to go with the new Royal Oil tincture.
While the information is somewhat scary, I appreciated that Lord Jones posted a warning on its website. Readers are warned not to use a Lord Jones hemp derived CBD tincture if they are allergic to stevia. Unwanted side effects include sores and inflammation under a user’s tongue and inside of the mouth. Lips and throats can become swollen. Even intestinal distress can become an issue. No thanks.
Fab CBD is a rather small sized company that seems to be growing over time. Since opening its doors in 2018, Fab CBD is centered in Tampa with financial offices in the United Kingdom. Created to help men and women deal with stress on a regular basis, Fab CBD oil says its product helps with recovery after exercise and helps folks stay calm.
According to its informative website, Fab CBD oil is made with organically grown hemp extract from Colorado, full spectrum cannabinoid blend, natural flavoring and less than 0.3 percent THC. In other words, you won’t have to worry about getting the munchies. Too bad that user feedback often claims the taste Fab CBD oil for tinctures leaves in a user’s mouth is quite disappointing.
Maybe it is just me, but I do not care for any retail websites that use fancy lingo throughout their content. That’s why I like Fab CBD’s business site. All the information a potential buyer would look for can be easily found. Best of all, It’s not complicated. After all, Fab CBD only sells 3 items. You get to choose between CBD oil for a tincture, a topical cream and edibles. When it comes to the CBD oil, the company sells three strengths and five different flavors, each with a shelf life of one year.
Another thing that I do like about the Fab CBD website is all the photographs posted by customers. This gives the site lots of character that competitors are lacking. It also offers suggestions for use. For example, readers learn that the dropper in all Fab CBD bottles can hold 1 ml of oil tincture. Folks also learn that the tincture can be dropped into any beverage, as opposed to under a user’s tongue. The laboratory results provided by ProVerde analytics lab are also shared.
Since 2018, Premium Jane has been operating out of Southern California. Since first opening its doors in Los Angeles, the brand has grown nationwide. Now sourced from farms in Oregon and centered in Scottsdale, Arizona, Premium Jane now sells everything from CBD gummies that are made with THC free isolate extract to topical creams, soft gel capsules and oil tinctures.
CBD oils are Premium Jane’s standard, go to product. According to the business website, they are the company’s most potent option. The 30 ml CBD tinctures are available in 300 mg, 600 mg and 1000 mg options. The three different flavors options include mint, citrus and natural “earthy” hemp.
One thing I appreciate about Premium Jane’s products is that every one of them is made from different parts of industrial hemp, whether it is the stalk, its leaves or the plant’s flowers. The company also makes it a point not to rely on any pesticides or chemical fertilizers whatsoever. Combine that with the low dose of THC (under 0.3 percent), and Premium Jane CBD oils will have you feeling physically, mentally and emotionally cool in no time.
Unfortunately, the amount of user feedback that I could find online for Premium Jane was quite limited. It is understandable, considering the company can be considered the new kids on the block. Regardless, positive feedback on the internet includes its top quality laboratory testing performed at ProVerde Labs for safety and efficiency.
I have said it before and I’ll say it again, I always think it’s nice when a business shares its lab results on their websites. The same goes for authentic customer feedback. Just remember that if the feedback appears too good to be true, it most probably is. At least the prices of Premium Jane’s oil tinctures are not ridiculously high, like Green Roads.
Are you worried about dinner at the in-laws house or a big presentation you have to give at the office? If so, Sunday Scaries CBD Tinctures may be able to save the day. The powerful CBD products are ideal for those individuals looking for a stronger dose than anything found in an edible. Every tincture is produced with Sunday Scaries’ signature blend of broad spectrum CBD, Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D3. It comes in 500 mg bottles with 10 mg servings for an estimated total of 50 drops.
According to the company website, Sunday Scaries is nothing like its competitors that acquire their CBD products from China. Rather, they only rely on hemp from domestic farms in Greeley, Colorado. These farms have strict regulatory requirements, including no pesticides whatsoever used in the cultivation of the plants. The hemp is then sent to Denver for strict product testing. Everything is then sent to San Diego where it is produced, packed and sealed. Then every Sunday Scaries CBD tincture is ready to be sent to the end consumer.
Sunday Scaries makes it a point to perform full panel testing on all of its raw materials in a lab. Everything is then certified, audited and licensed to operate by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. That way, Sunday Scaries can make sure there are no residual metals or pesticides present in any of its CBD merchandise.
Another benefit of a Sunday Scaries CBD tincture is its list of ingredients shown of every bottle. Meanwhile, its website explains the different ingredients’ purposes. For instance, vitamin B12 helps to regulate a user’s nervous system. Vitamin D3 gives a person’s immune system a boost, and coconut oil provides energy. The same site directs users on exactly how to use a dropper. Generally speaking, Sunday Scaries CBD Tinctures work fairly well, but not for more than three or four hours at a time. It also takes a drawn out five to seven days for the CBD to build up and become effective in a user’s system. Ouch. That’s a long time.
Since opening its doors in Southern California in 2015, CBDfx has grown into a highly recognized brand on the CBD market that only sells goods derived from hemp that was grown organically in the U.S. The retailers have gotten their feet wet with every type of CBD merchandise available, including edibles, drinks, oils, vapes, creams and waxes. Despite selling dozens of different products, all of the company’s CBD oil is CO2-extracted to preserve the potency of its cannabinoids, along with its amino acids and natural vitamins.
CBDfx has since began selling a variety of CBD vape merchandise from plants grown in high-tech farms located in Kentucky. Over time, CBDfx has expanded into other arenas, including edibles, capsules, topicals and vape pens, along with CBD for dogs and cats.
Rather than isolating the CBD, the drops are liquid extracts that combine hemp with Medium-Chain Triglyceride (MCT) oil to give users the same results as full spectrum CBD with fast absorption into one’s system. There are zero chemicals or filler ingredients used. Rather, they provide a user’s body with nourishing nutrients, like vitamins, fatty acids and amino acids. The tinctures are also 100 percent vegan.
CBDfx makes it a point to sell nothing but organic plant based oil tinctures and other popular items, such as CBD vape juice and gummies. On its website, CBDfx claims every tincture is completely pure, allowing folks to choose from a wide selection of CBD products for fun experimentation.
I will give CBDfx props for its wide variety of oil tinctures. Just scrolling around, I saw plenty of flavored tinctures, including Lychee Lemon Kiwi, Blueberry Pineapple Lemon and Lemon Lime Mint. You can also purchase the tincture oil in 500 mg, 1000 mg and 1500 mg containers. What I liked the most is CBDfx’s tincture oil bundles of two or three different flavors at a time.
Highland Pharms’ CBD hemp oil drops are tinctures created with organic ingredients, as opposed to pharmaceuticals. I know, the name can be deceiving. But that’s the point. Highland Pharms’ “Pharmaceutical Grade Hemp” is explicitly produced to contain elevated levels of cannabinoids.
Back in 2015, Highland Pharms first opened its doors in Texas. Today, the company relies on natural hemp from a Colorado farm to stock its retail location in Olympia, Washington.
So what’s in the Highland Pharms’ CBD hemp oil drops that makes them so special? The hemp extract is infused with a special mixture of cannabinoids, including CBD, CBGA and CBDA. Yes, there are little bits of THC in there, but not enough to make you high. CBD is then gently extracted from the hemp and kept at room temperature in order to preserve its effectiveness.
Personally, I am immediately turned off when I see the words “Pharm” and “pharmaceutical grade” on a hemp product. To make matters worse, there is no other information supplied to let consumers know that it is not a pharmaceutical medicine. Why don’t they advertise that fact? I would expect being hemp derived would be the CBD product’s biggest selling point. Of course, a writer like me immediately got annoyed by all of the little typos posted on Highland Pharms’ company website.
One positive about the tinctures is that every piece of Highland Pharms merchandise is shipped off for stringent testing by ProVerde. That allows buyers to rest assured they are getting real CBD and other cannabinoids, unlike products from overseas that are easily found on eBay. There are also no heavy metals or dangerous pesticides in the CBD products.
According to customer feedback, Highland Pharms top selling point for their tinctures may be the reliability, as well as the fast and free shipping. It certainly isn’t their high prices.
Have a big question about a CBD oil tincture? We know all the facts…
At first, I was concerned that I wouldn’t be able to properly manage a tincture. However, it couldn’t be any easier. All a person has to do is start with 1 dropper of CBD and place the liquid under his or her tongue. Then a user is supposed to keep the CBD oil in place for at least one or two minutes before ingesting it. Some folks like to take their CBD after breakfast, while others prefer lunch or dinner. There is no wrong time to take CBD, so you can even enjoy a tincture on an empty stomach. It couldn’t be easier to consume a pure CBD tincture.
If you are concerned about how long CBD will remain in your bloodstream, there is nothing to worry about. While five days is generally the norm, habitual users can rest assured that all the hemp derived CBD from an oil tincture will be completely flushed out of their systems in less than ten days. That’s not too shabby, considering that marijuana is known to last thirty days in one’s system. Ouch!
As a buyer, it can certainly be difficult to pick the greatest CBD tincture available. If you are a first-time user, you have to ask around and read reviews on the internet. But how are you supposed to know what feedback is authentic? Also, you don’t want to get anything cheap, but there is no need to spend a small fortune on CBD oil.
When you decide which CBD tincture suits you, always think about the kind of CBD that is mixed into the product. Some people only want to ingest pure CBD isolate without any other cannabidiols. Even if it is missing some of the important compounds associated with CBD’s physical and mental benefits, the isolate is superb for people that that have to steer clear of THC. I am referring to a pilot, a teacher or any other professional who must always be ready for a random drug test.
The simple answer is Yes. A CBD tincture is exceptionally efficient at managing stress. The lifechanging product quickly enters the system and binds to a user’s serotonin receptors in the brain. In no time, individuals become calm and cool, while mental and physical pressure become easier to handle.
While overdosing is not possible, you should still start out slowly to find the right size dose of your CBD. Then you can try out different flavors to pick your favorites. No matter which size and taste you choose, you will experience no trouble whatsoever reaching a peaceful frame of mind. To top it all off, a CBD tincture is small and convenient enough to toss into your purse or pocket. Who knows when you will need access to your handy CBD tincture?
It’s true that every person’s body is different. What may be fabulous to one can have no positive effects whatsoever on another. Yet, the positive results of CBD tinctures seem to be consistent. Relaxation becomes easy, allowing people to quickly “chill out.” That makes it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep throughout the night. As a direct result, you can wake up feeling energized. You will be more productive during the day, which contributes to one’s sense of accomplishment and happiness.
Often referred to as full spectrum hemp oil and raw hemp oil, full-spectrum CBD oil encompasses the cannabinoids and terpenes that are found in the hemp plant. Thanks to modern farming techniques, it’s now possible to pick and choose certain cannabinoids and terpenes when breeding Cannabis sativa. That means you can pick and choose exactly what you are looking for. Of course, everything used in cannabidiol production is high in CBD and contains very little THC.
Perhaps the number one reason that individuals choose to buy full spectrum tinctures is because of their heavy plant-like tastes. Other forms of CBD extracts tend to be blander. Just keep in mind that a full spectrum tincture of CBD must have less than .3 percent THC. While it is very unlikely, the THC can show up on a drug test.
Scientifically speaking, an isolate is known to be the most wholesome form of any compound. Isolates are created by extracting them from their natural habitats and separating them everything else, including plant parts, terpenes and flavonoids. The best CBD isolate comes from hemp, rather than THC-rich marijuana.
A broad-spectrum CBD tincture is more or less a mixture of CBD isolate and full spectrum CBD. All of the THC is completely removed. However, it still delivers many of the benefits of cannabinoids, as many other compounds are still kept in the extract.
Yes, it is essential that every CBD tincture you ever use has been laboratory tested by a third party. One vendor can sell you an incredible CBD product, but others may be trying to unload nothing more than expensive water placed in a fancy jar. Other times, you don’t even know what is in a tincture and an individual’s overall safety could become an issue. That is why it is so important to do your homework and read real customers’ reviews before buying and ingesting any CBD tinctures.
Yes, it is 100 percent legal to purchase a CBD tincture throughout the 50 United States. Of course, the CBD must stem from hemp. Otherwise, the product may have more than the legal amount of THC (0.3 percent). If there is too much TCH present in the product, a user can easily experience an unwanted high. The last thing you want is to look and sound like an anxious Cheech being talked down by a mellow Chong. No worries. That’s what hemp derived CBD tinctures and other CBD merchandise is made for.
No, a user never has to worry about getting any type of euphoric high from a hemp derived CBD product. It’s true that both CBD and THC come from the cannabis plant and both intermingle with the cannabinoid receptors the brain. Regardless, CBD will not affect a person’s CB1 receptors to give him or her the feeling of being high. As a matter of fact, CBD often has the opposite effect, helping individuals come down from a bad high.
Consumers can legally purchase CBD oil tinctures since the federal Farm Bill legalized CBD across the country in 2018. Ever since, consumers have been taking advantage of the most powerful and popular CBD products on the market. Many individuals think CBD tinctures are far superior to any other CBD products, as they are smoke free and work almost immediately.
When it comes to CBD tinctures, people do not need very much CBD to enjoy the physical, emotional and mental benefits. Fortunately, you never have to worry about taking too much, as it is simply not possible to overdose on CBD. Regardless, you should always begin slowly, maybe with a mere one drop a day. Over time, you can gradually increase your dosage to two drops a day and continue to increase your amount from there. Don’t forget that every person’s body is different than the next. What may be the perfect amount of CBD for you may have zero effect on the next person, and vice-versa.
The most important factors in buying a CBD oil tincture should be its overall potency and purity. That’s why it always helps for a buyer to read as much customer feedback and online consumer blogs as possible. If a company popped up yesterday or has a handful of bad reviews, take it as a bad sign. Trust brand recognition. You should also figure out where the products are made and only trust domestic CBD goods that have been laboratory tested.
Read MoreCBD is a product that has gained incredible notoriety in the most recent two years, predominantly due to easing of restrictions on hemp products, thanks to the US Farm Bill of 2018. CBD was given a green light by way of the legalization of hemp crops and products, thanks to this bill. Now it is common to hear of people taking CBD for dementia or CBD for pain. Those who suffer from epilepsy and chronic conditions of many types are using CBD oil.
Still, the fastest-growing segment of our society that is using CBD oil is senior citizens. AS people have come to learn of the benefits of CBD for pain, they’ve also come to realize that it helps with memory as well. CBD is a neuroprotectant which is why it is showing promise for those using CBD for dementia.
We all get older. It’s inevitable. It’s also inevitable that some people will experience chronic pain from arthritis and worn-out joints. Some are more prone to these issues, thanks to their genetics. Arthritis can gnarl joints and force hands into positions that no longer give way to perform even the most menial of tasks.
Age takes away the body’s ability to do the things that the young take for granted. Just rolling over and attempting to get out of bed in the morning can be a two or three-attempt-project. Writing your own name can become impossible and the reason that the elderly have very difficult to read handwriting.
As we grow older, our body is bombarded with inflammation which causes arthritis to eat away at our joints. Years of wear and tear take a toll on hips, knees, hands, lower back, and parts of our body that have been injured and healed poorly at some point during our life.
CBD can help to bring relief from these issues as well as improve focus and memory issues. To understand how this happens, it’s important to understand what CBD is, where it comes from, and what it does in the body. Let’s start with the body system that uses cannabinoids – the ECS.
It’s generally referred to as the ECS and it is a body system that was discovered in the 1990s. We’re still learning about the ECS but we know that it works to maintain homeostasis in the body.
Simply put, it keeps all the systems running smoothly and efficiently. It works as a middle manager, answering to the brain, fielding everything it can handle without involving the brain, and ensuring that everyone is doing their job, in their places, and prioritizing things to ensure that the entire body is functioning top-notch.
If you’ve got a fever, it’s the ECS that kicks in, telling the liver to produce more white blood cells, and gets the body to transport them to where they are needed. The ECS acts as the fire chief, directing the crews where to hook-up trucks, run the hoses, and put the fires out.
When pain is felt, signals are sent to the brain in waves. This is acknowledged and you feel the pain. The ECS is capable of blocking that pain from reaching the brain, by using endocannabinoids to block the pain signals from reaching the brain and reacting to the pain. Therefore, you feel relief.
Endocannabinoids are created within the body and are very similar to phytocannabinoids that we consume in plant matter. There are many plants that contain phytocannabinoids, not just cannabis. Phyto means ‘plant’. CBD is a phytocannabinoid and it is properly called cannabidiol.
Cannabinoids are present in many different types of plants, including some herbs, but CBD is only present in cannabis, namely hemp. Industrialized hemp is where today’s CBD oils are extracted from and marketed as CBD oil and CBD products of all sorts.
When inflammation is present, it is the ECS that tells the body to boost its response, having an anti-inflammatory effect. Cannabinoids boost the ECS into high gear, and that is exactly what happens when you take CBD oil. It can boost the output of the ECS.
CBD molecules flow through the neural pathways, particularly in the brain and the spinal column. As these molecules travel the body, they bind to receptors of the ECS that are located on the outside of some cells.
Lipids are formed from this binding process and continue traveling in the neural pathways, coating them with a protective armor-like sheathing as they go. This coating protects the neural pathways from the damage that can happen as part of the natural aging process and from diseases such as Alzheimer’s and dementia.
It has been proven that those taking CBD for dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, are able to retain memories for longer than their counterparts who do not take CBD. Those with Alzheimer’s, for example, have been able to retain their ability to recognize faces for longer than those who have not taken CBD at the first signs of the disease.
Pain can become chronic. The mind can become foggy with age. Our reaction times are worse as we age and we slow down a lot as our body isn’t able to move as smoothly or as swiftly. One of the best ways to combat these things is to use natural supplements when you can. Prescriptions for pain can be addictive and have side-effects that can be worse than the initial symptoms.
CBD continues to be researched and studied. It also continues to win hearts and minds as it gives relief to millions of people who praise it and write reviews every single day. While it does seem to reduce many of the symptoms to help people take control of their lives back, be able to get into and out of bed easier, and be more active, it isn’t a cure for anything.
CBD can manage pain and other symptoms of chronic issues. It’s not a cure or a treatment. If you use CBD with this understanding and know that it can be a very powerful and effective tool in managing your symptoms, you may find that you are able to have more good days than bad and enjoy being with your loved ones again instead of sitting at home in pain.
Read MoreMany people are taking CBD for things that range from mood disorders to arthritis pain. Children are sometimes giving CBD for epilepsy because it helps with seizure activity. For kids, CBD gummies are a great alternative to the drops because it seems like candy to them and it also helps you know more accurately how much they are getting. The best CBD edibles are available online or in shops now. Thankfully, CBD is legal nationwide and is giving more people options in states that haven’t yet legalized marijuana.
Even in states with medical marijuana laws in place, many people seek the best CBD edibles to help control pain and anxiety instead of marijuana because the laws haven’t kept pace with the medical marijuana industry and employers can still fire you for not passing a drug test. CBD gummies are also something that you can carry in your pocket, keep in a desk drawer and take without being obvious to others that you’re taking your dose to help you with a chronic condition or pain. It affords more anonymity of those who are trying to fly under the radar.
There are so many brands of CBD products on the market right now that it is very difficult for most people to have any idea if they are getting a good product or not. Some of the things that you’ll want to know are:
Let’s tackle these one at a time!
Taking these things into consideration, you’re looking for edibles that are made with organic CBD oil. You should look for a label that says they are full-spectrum if you truly want to experience the full effect of pain relief or help with seizures, tremors, IBS symptom help, etc.
The best CBD edibles include CBD gummies, CBD candies, baked goodies, and CBD infused honey, and things that you may not expect at all.
It is important to know that not all CBD edibles are created equally and there are products on the market that just aren’t legitimate or even really made with CBD. If you read the labels, using our tips, you’ll see that some things are being made with hemp seed oil and don’t even contain any CBD oil whatsoever. You know what to look for now.
You also know now that you should look for products made from organically sourced oil. Choosing things made with oils sourced right here in the USA are some of the best and safest that you can find. Imported CBD oil products are often mislabeled and have traces of toxins and heavy metals in them when tested independently.
Don’t use a product that you can’t see third-party testing for. It’s impossible to know if you’re getting real CBD oil if you don’t look for this. It’s also possible that you’re using something that could be harmful without seeing this test. Rather than run any risks of consuming toxins found in some samples coming in from other countries
Do use products that fit your lifestyle and this will ensure you use them CBD infused coffees are wonderful for people who drink coffee every morning and they taste great! CBD coffee creamers, brownies, and even soup recipes exist. There is truly something for everyone. The best CBD edibles are the ones that you enjoy eating and that provide you with the best impact. These will be organic, full-spectrum edibles.
Read MoreYou have seen the bottles at the local convenience store or perhaps it was in the local drug store? A lot of places carry CBD oil now. You seem to see it all over the place and you know that a lot of places are selling it and tons of people are buying it, but the last person you expected to be taking CBD gummies was your grandmother. When you asked her what CBD oil benefits she could possibly be enjoying, you were shocked to find out she was taking CBD to help prevent Alzheimer’s disease.
It certainly seems to be a bit far-reaching for people to be taking CBD oil for something like Alzheimer’s disease, right? Maybe not. While it is true that there is no treatment for Alzheimer’s presently, there are CBD oil benefits for those with Alzheimer’s and memory loss, CBD gummies are just one of a hundred ways for people to be dosing themselves with CBD to help combat a myriad of chronic health symptoms.
While it isn’t a treatment or cure for anything, CBD has been shown in test after test to reduce inflammation, protect the neural pathways, improve focus and mental clarity, and even reduce the body’s reaction to pain. Let’s explore CBD in greater detail to help you understand how and why it works.
Alzheimer Patients Seek To Retain Memories For Longer
Patients who use CBD have been able to retain memories of faces for longer than those with Alzheimer’s disease who do not use CBD. This data has been collected through several studies that were focused on patients with age-related as well as early-onset Alzheimer’s.
Let’s start at the beginning. CBD is the acronym for cannabidiol, a cannabinoid found in cannabis plants that include both hemp and marijuana. Hemp and marijuana differ from each other in chemical composition. Hemp is naturally far lower in TCH (tetrahydrocannabinol) which is the psychoactive cannabinoid compound in marijuana that causes the head high for which it is so well-known.
For this reason, CBD has been legalized in all fifty states. It’s so low in THC that it cannot cause a high effect on the brain, while it retains most of the therapeutic benefits of cannabis. CBD can impact the body very beneficially because it interacts with the ECS. Yes, another acronym. This one stands for the Endocannabinoid System. It’s a body system that isn’t widely known but it is likely the most important. It wasn’t discovered until the 1990s, so it is just starting to get the attention that it deserves.
The ECS works as a supervisor over other body systems and is constantly working to maintain homeostasis in the body. In other words, it works to constantly ensure a harmoniously balanced body. If you’ve got a fever, you’re out of balance and the ECS kicks into high gear to get the body moving to get that fever under control.
The ECS is made of thee parts:
Endocannabinoids bind to receptors that are located all over the body. They can be found on the exterior of cell walls, in areas where the cannabinoids are needed the most. When phytocannabinoids (cannabinoids from plants) are introduced into the body, they can work with the ECS in the same way and provide fuel to boos the system into high gear when help is needed.
CBD is one of these cannabinoids that works to employ the ECS and get it to perform tasks within the body that bring back balance by relieving pain and many other things… like preserving the memories of Alzheimer’s patients.
CBD is a neural protectant. What this means is that it protects the neural pathways from the breakdown that occurs in the normal aging process, as well as the deterioration of the myelin that happens when Alzheimer’s ravages the body.
When CBD enters the body, it travels the neural pathways where it seeks a receptor. The majority of these receptors are located within the brain and the spinal column. As the molecule travels, it coats the neural pathways with a protective coating that works like an armor plating. It protects the neural tissues from degrading and from attack.
This, in turn, aids in mental clarity and acuity. People are able to focus better on CBD and this is why those with ADHD love to use it. It promotes the retention of memories and the overall health of the brain and the pathways by which your memories are stored.
Alzheimer’s patients who use CBD oil early in diagnosis have been found to remember faces for longer. This disease robs people of their memories and even their own children and spouses become strangers to them. Each day is a new day and yesterday is forgotten. CBD has shown that it can help them to remember their loved ones for longer. It doesn’t stop the progression of the disease. It slows it down.
Aside from Alzheimer’s disease, CBD can also help reduce inflammation, reduce pain, ease digestive issues, regulate weight, improve appetite, promote healthy skin and hair, and much more. People with Epilepsy have used CBD with great success to reduce the number of seizures suffered and also to reduce the severity of the seizures when they do have one.
In fact, it proved so effective for Epilepsy that the FDA approved CBD as the primary active ingredient in the Epilepsy medication known as Epidiolex. This was the first drug to receive the FDA stamp of approval and it is likely that it will not be the last medication. More research is being done and currently for a multitude of potential uses for CBD.
No one should market CBD as a cure. At this time, there is a lot of evidence to show that it has the ability to enhance your life and promote better health. It can help you feel better. It will not heal you. It may help cancer from spreading if you’re undergoing chemotherapy and it may even help prevent the sickness and nausea that often accompanies this treatment.
When it is used in conjunction with traditional medication, it can often do incredible things. Whether you choose CBD to enhance traditional medications or to avoid complications from them, it can be an excellent choice for many reasons, Alzheimer’s disease is one of the many things that can be slowed down.
Read MorePerhaps one of the things that are the most terrifying age-related issues is the thought of losing our minds and our memory. When we lose the memories of our lifetime, it’s as if we’ve died yet still remain breathing. Indeed, it is worrisome to become a burden to our families as well. This is perhaps what has people turning to hemp CBD oil and inquiring about CBD oil and dementia.
Hemp CBD oil is simply CBD oil that has been extracted from hemp, making it low in THC and legal. It doesn’t cause you to feel high or to be rendered unable to drive or work. CBD oil and dementia is receiving a lot of focus because CBD has been determined to be a neuroprotectant. We’ll explain what this means and how it may impact those with dementia.
Many people turn to CBD because it can be used without a prescription, isn’t addictive, and remains a natural choice that seemingly has little to no negative sife-effects. If you are on other medications you should definitely discuss using CBD oil with your doctor. Very few interactions with other medications exist but it is a blood thinner, so you should let your doctor know if you plan to use CBD oil with your current medications.
There are 7 stages of dementia. The first stage has no symptoms and is undetectable at this point. There is, as yet, no way to test early on if someone has dementia. If anyone in your family has suffered from it, you are more at risk, however.
Stage 2 – Very mild memory loss. This is often seen as normal aging issues like forgetting where the car keys are, losing your eyeglasses, etc.
Stage 3 – In this phase patients will begin to forget things like cleaning the house, paying bills and more serious issues that can impact their credit, getting utilities turned off, and even forgetting agreeing to go out to lunch and being completely surprised when someone shows up to get them for a lunch date.
Stage 4 – This is the point when dementia can be diagnosed. Cognitive decline can include a lack of ability to solve basic problems, do basic math, remember how to write checks, forget their way to places they’ve been to a thousand times, etc. In this phase, patients may become agitated when questioned and be very argumentative over memory issues, refusing to admit there is an issue.
Stage 5 – This is considered mid-stage dementia and patients may need help with daily tasks such as eating, cooking, bathing and more. People need to be supervised more, will leave ovens on and potentially do dangerous things out of forgetfulness.
Stage 6 – This stage brings loss of memories. People may begin to forget their own lives, faces of loved ones, who they are, where they are from, etc.
Stage 7 – End-stage dementia is devastating. Time means nothing and many patients lose their ability to even speak. Walking, toileting and most activities will need to be assisted at this point.
The total time to move through all the stages can take from 4 to 20 years. Sadly most patients succumb to dementia and pass away in less than 8 years. It depends on the patient. There is no cure for dementia but CBD has shown great promise at slowing it down.
CBD is a neural protectant. When it enters the body, it travels through the neural pathways and coats them with a protective armor that prevents them from being destroyed. Dementia and Alzheimer’s are both devastating to the myelin that lines the neural pathways.
CBD protects this myelin and helps to ward off the devastation for much longer than if left alone. Patients compared side by side, some taking CBD and some not proved that those on CBD were able to slow the progression of the disease and mental degradation.
Dementia patients can sometimes become aggressive as well. It appears to be something that is common and patients have little to no control over this aggression. CBD can help balance moods and help to bring some balance to have fewer of these angry outbursts. This helps family members who are trying to care for those with dementia at home.
In fact, the help with mood swings and depression is likely the most positive impact that CBD has on dementia. It’s difficult to care for someone when they are angry with you. Feeding someone who is combative, for example, is impossible. CBD has helped many people to remain at home for far longer, keeping families whole for as long as possible.
CBD has the most impact when it is taken prior to a diagnosis. This means that people who have taken CBD as a supplement to their diet are able to prevent the symptoms for far longer. Once the disease begins to progress, it is harder to slow it down and certainly more difficult for families to prevent the ultimate move of their loved one into nursing home facilities with dedicated dementia wards.
It is tragic to watch those you love slowly fade away into a world inside their minds. They may hallucinate, have mood swings, angry outbursts, and seem completely out of touch with reality. They slowly lose their minds and you are unable to do much but watch. It’s a cruel, heartbreaking disease.
Using CBD while you are still healthy may potentially help prevent the disease from gaining this type of grip and it certainly doesn’t cause any harm. Many people turn to CBD when they have a family history of dementia or Alzheimer’s disease. Since there are many benefits to using CBD, it may serve many purposes and a happy bonus might be retaining your memories and mental faculties for far longer than you may have without it.
Far more research needs to be done to find out what impact CBD has precisely. For now, it seems to help the moods and we will likely know more about the full benefits over the next few years as scientists continue to ask questions and seek answers.
Read MoreCBD is sold in bottles everywhere. You see it online and on the counter when you pay for your gasoline. CBD oil is bottled with droppers and touted as the next best thing since sliced bread. If you’ve got a skin condition, however, you might benefit more from a salve applied directly to the skin. Hemp CBD oil salves are available in shops, online and anywhere that CBD is sold, even in the marijuana dispensary down the road. You can buy salve from them that has THC or not. Make sure that you ask and get the one that you prefer. Remember that THC may cause psychoactive responses in the brain and even though it is in a salve, you would still test positive for THC in a drug test if your employer does this sort of thing.
Hemp CBD oil is very low in THC and won’t make you high. For this reason, it is most often sought for CBD products such as salves, creams, lotions, and similar products. A marijuana dispensary will more than likely carry mostly products that contain THC and this will not apply to what most people are seeking in a salve.
Many people use CBD products for chronic conditions and pain but rarely do people realize that CBD also has potent usefulness for skin conditions. Psoriasis, eczema, dandruff, skin allergies and healing burns and scars are all reasons to use a salve.
Some people who have arthritis in their joints will choose to you healing salves so that they can place the CBD on the location that they want it to help the most. Some people use the salves in conjunction with oral tinctures of CBD oil as well.
Since you cannot truly overdose on CBD, it is beneficial to use it in whatever form is best for you and in the dosage that provides you with the most therapeutic power. Many people find that CBD works wonders when applied directly to the skin and this is because the skin has its own Endocannabinoid System that operates separately from the system that works when you take CBD orally. Therefore, using CBD in both ways is actually phenomenally impactful for things like pain and arthritis inflammation.
Those with scalp conditions and dandruff problems are using shampoos and conditioners with infusions of hemp CBD oil because of the benefit it has on contact. Salves will soak into the skin and work their way into a joint within minutes. You feel the full impact over several hours and this is highly relieving for people with joint pain, pulled muscles, and arthritis. This is why you see people from all walks of life using CBD salves and oils. Everyone from children with psoriasis to grandmothers with arthritis, are shouting from the rooftops how much they love CBD.
Spasms that come as a result of seizure activity can be very painful. Charlie horses, cramps in the deep muscle tissue, can be painful and severe. Using CBD healing salves with potassium pills simultaneously has been shown to give tremendous relief for these patients.
Pets can even benefit from healing salves. If you have a dog that has a skin condition, itch, allergy, or even mange, CBD has been shown to give them relief and reduce the symptoms within hours. Dogs with chronic skin conditions can find relief from both oral and skin doses of CBD.
If you are an athlete, a runner, for example, you train hard and you know how fatigued your legs can get from a marathon or training prior to one. Using a CBD healing salve is a natural and effective way to recover more quickly. Nourishing the body at the source of the pain is both intelligent and swift.
Even professional athletes are using CBD salves and oils to recover from intense training and sports injuries that are bound to happen sometimes. Recovery times are faster and healing is swift. Energy is restored naturally and athletes are saying that they are more in a ‘zone’ when competing when they use CBD products, even salves or creams.
Some people simply don’t want the world to know their business. People see you taking drops from a bottle and they know what you are up to. Some people are too nosy for their own good, let’s face it.
Using a cream gives you more anonymity and privacy, even if you reapply cream on your break at work. No one knows what is in the cream you are using and no one expects you to share from your jar that you stick your fingers in, so it’s a win-win really. You can maintain a level of comfort while not telling the whole workforce that you’re using CBD.
While it is legal in all fifty states, some people feel that there is still a stigma associated with the use of hemp products. While this is gradually going away and more people than ever favor the legalization of cannabis from coast to coast, you still may be someone who values privacy and the salve allows you to have that.
No matter what your reason is for using CBD, or how you choose to use it, you’ll surely find that your life is better for it. It can enhance your moods and your entire outlook on life. If you’re depressed, it can uplift you. If you’re in pain, it can help relieve that pain. If you’ve just been looking for a healthy diet supplement that will enhance your overall health, it can do that too.
CBD has been nicknamed the Boy Scout Molecule. It seems to know what needs to be done, and it does what is needed. No one knows yet exactly how CBD knows exactly what the body needs but science is likely to figure it out soon. Research has been ongoing for several years and has gotten intense as hemp was once again legalized in December of 2018, thanks to the Farm Bill of 2018.
Read MoreYou must have heard about CBD merchandise by now. It is everywhere, helping men and women manage their minds and bodies. There is even a line devoted to CBD for dogs and cats. You can easily sign onto the internet and shop for CBD edibles, such as gummies, dried fruit, and protein bars. Consumers can choose from a wide selection of CBD oil tinctures, bath bombs, vape pens, coconut oil and honey sticks. Many individuals think CBD oil for sex drives is the popular products’ single greatest asset.
In 2018, the federal Farm Bill legalized CBD and other industrial hemp on a national level. One of the biggest reasons that the best CBD oils for sex is in such high demand is that it stems from hemp. That means the CBD produces the same physical and mental benefits as marijuana’s THC without the psychoactive “high.” However, CBD does improve one’s overall mood by stimulating the brain’s anandamide neurotransmitter. That’s why more and more of the general public is embracing CBD oil for sex on a daily basis.
If you think about, it is not hard to imagine why using CBD for sex has recently grown so popular throughout our culture. When it comes to relieving self-consciousness in the bedroom, the best CBD oil for sex can be a lifesaver. Not only can guys perform, but discomfort for women during penetration is often minimized, while boosting the overall sensation for a woman. Orgasms can be significantly intensified. All you need is the top CBD for better sex.
Forget substances, like little blue pills and alcohol, to improve life between the sheets. Say goodbye to expensive prescriptions, as well as big bar tabs and hangovers. Rather, both partners can enjoy the benefits of CBD balm for sex, followed by a full night of deep sleep and an energized day.
Thankfully, CBD comes in with a handful of potentially lifechanging benefits.
Almost anyone who is familiar with the positive effects of cannabis can understand how CBD lube for sex can be considered a powerful aphrodisiac. Picture a pair of lovers feeding one another colorful gummies in the bedroom. Or maybe they are enjoying a romantic soak in the tub with the right CBD bath bomb and hemp soap. The chance of arousal is rising by the second.
How does CBD play a part in either a man or a woman’s sensual desire? It is not complicated. As soon as CBD is applied to one’s skin, it widens the user’s blood vessels. This makes it easier for oxygenated blood to flow freely throughout the body. In other words, CBD increases sexual arousal.
It is a fact that cannabinoid receptors are found inside a woman’s reproductive tract, including the uterus, ovaries, and vagina. That means CBD can have a mighty impact on sexual pleasure. On a daily basis, CBD products can be used to gain a high libido. It may even help a sexually repressed lady reach orgasm. As previously mentioned, CBD can do plenty for a man’s erectile dysfunction, which can work wonders for both parties.
It makes no difference if you and your special someone are having oral sex, necking or merely cuddling, CBD can make pre-sex warmth and pleasure better. Folks can concentrate on intimacy. Both CBD balm for sex and CBD lube for sex are known for increasing one’s senses, as there are various CBD receptors in sexual tissues and reproductive organs. Sex feels better. It tastes better. Sex even smells better with the best CBD goodies on the market increasing lubrication. And that’s not even taking into account how much discomfort a quality CBD lube can provide a dry situation by helping a woman’s muscles to relax.
Speaking of loosening up the body for sexual activity, the top CBD body oils for sale are known to improve sensuality by helping the body chill out. The merchandise is small, light and can quickly be absorbed into one’s skin. In the bedroom, this translates to less muscle tension while fooling around. Both parties get to feel calm and cool. You can always begin by rubbing a little CBD body oil onto your partner’s neck, shoulders, arms and legs. In no time, you’ll both be in the mood to fool around. The only thing missing will be some Marvin Gaye tunes in the background.
It is no secret that mental pressure, such as stress, anxiety and depression can wreak havoc on one’s sex life. Men cannot perform and the ladies become extremely uncomfortable. CBD products that can efficiently improve one’s overall frame of mind can do wonders for an individual in the bedroom.
At the same time, sleep improves, which can be marvelous for one’s energy levels throughout the day at work and in the sack after dark. With high quality CBD oil, you can take your mind off all the distractions that can obstruct you from intercourse. Right away, both mental and physical stress tends to float away. Sexual pleasure can be considerably improved for every party involved.
There is no question that CBD can have a tremendous effect of one’s sex life. But realize that not all CBD merchandise is the same. For starters, only purchase high quality CBD products extracted from hemp that are laboratory tested and manufactured in the United States. There is no point in buying dirt cheap CBD products from overseas that will have zero effect in your system, besides frustrating you.
While those two crucial factors should be enough to ensure your overall safety, you should also stick to high quality CBD goods that come from a reliable vendor. Perform a little homework by checking out the CBD store’s website and reading posted reviews. Is the feedback positive and does it sound authentic? Do you believe the consumers’ stories about CBD’s different effects on their sex lives? Make sure the CBD is extracted from hemp, rather than the marijuana plant. Otherwise, the CBD may not be legal in your state. After all, marijuana derived-hemp can have up to 20% of THC that can quickly get you high. Once that happens, you won’t be able to drive your car or get any work accomplished.
Regardless of what delivery device you rely on for your CBD, figuring out your ideal dosage of CBD is essential. Over time, you can increase your dose. As soon as a higher dose stops agreeing with your system, simply stop. Return to the dosage that supplied your mind and body with the most benefits. At least you have nothing to fear, as there is no way to overdose on CBD.
How long should you take CBD before having sex? Like it or not, CBD does not take an immediate effect in a user’s system. That’s why it is important to plan a little ahead before fooling around in the bedroom. A user should begin enjoying its wonderful benefits in approximately 30 minutes. That’s just enough time to set the mood with two glasses of wine and some romantic words before getting down to business.
Powerful CBD products may be the smartest way to beef up a couple’s sex life, but they are not the only option out there. For instance, another technique to improve a couple’s sex life is to always take your time. Whether it is a good thing or not, sexual responses tend to slow down over time. That means it may take more time for either party to get aroused and eventually climax. Look at the positive side, you get to give your body a beneficial workout, while enjoying more time fooling around. Who knows what kind of sexual experience is waiting?
As simple as it may sound, having an in-depth talk about sex can always help a couple. Maybe he didn’t realize that she doesn’t enjoy that position, or perhaps he dislikes being touched there. Opening up a two way conversation about sexual intimacy can be extremely rewarding, especially when it leads to hidden fantasies and unchartered territory. Let’s just hope nobody is too embarrassed to prevent a completely honest discussion.
When it comes time to have your big talk about sex, it is important to find the right time. Rather than in front of everyone’s friends at a party, make time when you two can be alone. Otherwise, you are merely inviting unnecessary guilt and shame into the equation. Better yet, there is nothing wrong with speaking up while you are between the sheets.
Share your honest feeling and give constructive criticism. Just be careful not to be overly critical. Rather than “Stop touching me there,” try to focus on the positives. Say, “I prefer when you play with my hair.” Look at any issue as a problem to be worked out together, instead of assigning blame.
Rather than two teenagers in the back of a car, a pair of lovers can enjoy better sex when they take their time in an adequate setting. 30 minutes is better than 30 seconds. Look for somewhere comfortable, as well as dark and quiet. The last thing you want to worry about is any uninvited guests walking in. A major part of intimacy is minimizing distractions. When it comes time to fool around, take the phone off the hook and turn off your cell. Maybe lock Marley out of the room to prevent a cold nose from touching your naked behind.
The best place for a couple’s private talk and fooling around may be in a new environment, like a weekend getaway to the city or the Keys. You don’t need to spend all your time in the sack. Rather, enjoy your quality time together, whether you see a Broadway show, go parasailing or simply watch movies together without leaving your hotel room.
It also helps to increase intimacy, whether it is by making eye contact, kissing or continually touching your partner. Gently rubbing one’s fingertips over the other’s neck, back or lips can be fantastic for establishing affection. Just thinking about it may be enough to send the chills down your spine. Plenty of articles have been written, books published, and educational videos produced on making physical contact with a sexual partner. Is it time to be firm or gentle? There is no one right or wrong way to touch another person. It is up to you to decide and figure out the most effective techniques to keep your significant other aroused with no more than your touch.
A couple can always fool around in the middle of the day or with all the lights on to spice things up. Candles create an ideal glow, along with attractive scents. You can easily light another candle or blow one out to create the perfect atmosphere for making whoopee. Doing so allows you to gaze at your partner’s naked body, including when your private parts meet.
Another entertaining way to get the blood flowing up is by trying new positions. Do you miss the good ol’ days when you and your partner couldn’t keep your hands off one another? But that was years ago. You can’t even remember the last time you guys did something besides the missionary position. Use Google and check out new positions, including the Magic Mountain with decorative pillows and the yoga-friendly Viennese Oyster. You can even turn things upside down with the Trapeze. Just be careful. Nobody wants to explain any sexual positions to the paramedics.
Making yourself feel sexy can make things better for you, as well as your partner. I am not talking about getting liposuction or a hair transplant. Rather, I mean something small and effective, like taking a shower or completely shave a new part of your body. But don’t rule out something a bit naughty, such as black lace underwear and a garter belt for date night over the weekend. Do you want to introduce a sex toy? Even listening to the right music can do the trick, as long as you feel erotically attractive.
Playing the right sex games can be a blast. Instead of trying for hot and steamy relations every time you two get together, you can easily lighten the mood with the right competition. You may not have played Truth or Dare for decades, but you can still enjoy the classic game. What’s your sexual fantasy? How often do you pleasure yourself? Imagine how far you can go with risqué dares. There are also sexy dice games at almost every novelty shop. According to your roll, you’ll have to perform a verb, such as “lick” or “suck” one of your partner’s body part, like an ear or a finger. Needless to say, the contests can get rather steamy.
Try role playing as Romeo and Juliet or a brave warrior saving a princess. Discuss your fantasies, make up fun backstories and even dress the part. She can be a rich and famous actress from the glory days of Hollywood, and he can be a world famous porn star. Role playing can be an absolute blast that will improve your sex lives. You’ll also be creating memories that will always be cherished.
Then there’s the art of sensual massage before sex that’s been around since the ancient Hindu teachings of Tantra. Rather than the 10 minute massage you get at the mall, it is okay to take your time and be frisky. When you’re in the comfort of your own home, you don’t have to worry about getting sexually aroused or making any funny noises. The massage can be enjoyed in silence, as well with soft tunes or even a calming voice. A cool temperature and incense help set the mood. Coconut oil will moisturize both party’s skin. There are even flavored massage oils that can be rubbed in with one’s tongue.
There is no reason that a sensual massage should be limited to just a person’s back or private parts. The whole body should be included in a voluptuous massage. You can begin by running your fingertips along your partner’s head and scalp. Make small circles as you work your way down to his or her neck and shoulder blades. Work your way down by gently massaging the arms, chest and back. Don’t forget to massage each finger separately. Then work your way down to the buttocks, thighs, calves, feet and toes. Just think about how hot you will both feel after you spend a few minutes working each section of your partner’s body.
Some couples have decided to try a form of psychotherapy known as sex therapy. Often times, individuals like sharing their concerns with each other. Of course, a third-party can guide a conversation and explain how some of your body parts work. There are no exams and no nudity. The therapist merely listens and makes suggestions, like how to increase arousal after having a baby or when experiencing menopause.
You can take things a step further by moving your sexual escapades outside of the house. Go for a long walk in a park or a late night dipping in the pool, if not the ocean. Just make sure you two are alone before starting any funny business. Of course, the risk of getting caught is often a huge turn-on. But no sex is worth getting arrested. I don’t know. Maybe.
No matter what you do to bring a little excitement back into your sex life, remember to have fun. Leave romantic notes around the house, along with naughty messages. Tickle one another and laugh. Have you done it on the kitchen table or the hammock in the backyard? As long as everyone is safe from disease, pregnancy and indecent exposure, feel free to put on your Indiana Jones hat and get adventurous. The whip is optional.
While there are plenty of tricks out there to spice up couples’ sex lives, CBD products have the best reputation for helping men and women overcome their embarrassing troubles in the bedroom. According to countless individuals, CBD merchandise may be the best option for enhancing sexual pleasure, increasing libido and reducing erectile dysfunction. Can astonishing CBD be your savior in bed?
Read MoreA lot of things have happened in the cannabis industry throughout the course of this year 2019. As the year draws to a close, it’s that time of the year when we look back at the hottest topics throughout the course of the year. 2019 has sure been an interesting year with a lot of trending topics. We take a quick run through the year with the hottest topics in the cannabis industry.
For a long time, cannabis have been associated with youths. This isn’t wrong as many of the active consumers of cannabis are in their 20s. But there are many other users that are of the older generations. These include baby boomers. This is a growing segment of the cannabis users and they don’t fit very neatly into the box.
Young cannabis users tend to take cannabis for the fun of it, but boomers mostly take it for medical reasons. Most boomers, about 67% of them, take cannabis for the sake of their health and other medical reasons. Most boomers point out to body aches, pains and other medical issues as their reasons for consuming cannabis. Although there are many boomers who take it just to relax and feel good. As many of them have pointed out that it helps them to unwind and enjoy a good time. In the first quarter of 2019, about 62% of boomers consumed cannabis for health reasons in level 1 states.
There was an anticipation of the rise of cannabis social clubs that are legal in some markets before now. We saw this happen in 2019. Many cannabis users have said before that they enjoy taking cannabis alone in their homes. There are many others who have claimed that they take it only in small groups. There’s currently a large population of cannabis users who now take cannabis at public venues and in gatherings. In cities like Denver, Las Vegas and San Francisco, there have been more uses involved in public cannabis experience.
A large percentage of cannabis users in the US claim that they use cannabis for recreational and other social uses. Over 30% of users claim to consume it just before they meet with others. While 41% claim to use it for date nights and for daytime fun. Many legal cannabis clubs have emerged this year. Although, they’ve had to deal with regulatory issues in many cities
This is a long-lasting debate, but it’s one that doesn’t matter anymore. Medical dispensaries are generally on the decline especially in places where they coexist with adult-use shops. This however doesn’t mean that people don’t use cannabis for medical reasons anymore. It’s just the business model that people prefer. There are more cannabis product available in the market today alongside an increase in cannabis education. This has led to the de-stigmatization of consumption of cannabis products and many more users now involve in taking cannabis both for recreational and medicinal purposes.
According to a survey, 64% of United States citizens already believe that there are medical benefits attached to cannabis consumption. 88% of people living in states where medical use or adult-sales is allowed also endorse it for medical purposes. Fewer people use it for singular purposes. Among those that use it for pain relief in level 1 states, 60% also indulge in it for social and recreational reasons. While 40% use it for both medical and recreational purpose.
Nothing explains the rise in cannabis consumption more than a non-alcoholic cannabis beer. With the emergence of the cannabis beverage market, there are more options to consume cannabis. Cannabis beverage is probably the easiest and the most sociable way to consume cannabis.
In the second quarter of the year, beverages made a sale of $13.4M in the US edibles market. This makes up 6 of the total edibles market in the US. This follows a growing list of beverage brands in the market. As at the second quarter of 2019, there were 88 beverage brands in the market. With an increase of 19 brands from the second quarter of 2018. It is projected that by 2022, the US edibles market will reach a sale of $3.4 billion. It is estimated that by that time cannabis beverages will make sales up to $374 million, more than ten times the current figure.
There have been deliberations within the FDA as to the use of CBD as additives in drinks and food. The outcome of this deliberation will go a long way to determine the impact of cannabis
With the increasing popularity of CBD and cannabis product. People are developing more interest in this cannabinoid found in cannabis and hemp. Very much unlike THC, CBD doesn’t give the psychoactive effect that THC gives.
Products with CBD in them are becoming popular and more common by the day, with different goods and brands buying into it. There is also the popular discussion on whether it should be used as an additive or not. There are more people who know about CBD these days than before.
The passing of the farm bill in 2018, which legalizes the growing of cannabis that has 0.3% THC, is partly responsible for the recent rise in the popularity and use of CBD. 56% of cannabis users in the US, say they don’t know the difference between the effects of THC and CBD. Compare this with previous stats, you will realize that more people are getting to know more about CBD and cannabis products.
There have been more sales in cannabis product this year. CBD market has grown meteorically and many brands have become very solidly rooted. A lot of sales have been made in different categories ranging from edibles to concentrates and to topicals. Many brands far and wide has lead the sales. By producing quality products, many brands have built a fan base that is loyal to their product. The key is, they delivered on their promised experience, both the physio and the psycho experience.
Within the dispensary sales, branded product hold on to their lead on sales. As more consumers recognize these products and the strength of their market continues to increase, it is likely that they continue this trend.
In Colorado, 95% of the ingestibles market was full of branded products in the second quarter of this year. That is two percent more from the second quarter of 2018. In the category, the leading ingestibles brand took up 22% of all the sales while the closest competitor took up 11% of the ingestibles market.
Perhaps surprisingly, the prices of many cannabis products in the market keep declining. There are a lot of reason that we can attribute to this decline in price. But the most likely one is that the price of the product largely determines consumer choice. You can’t be surprised by this though, most users would settle for a product that they can afford.
Products that offer premium prices also make their sales no doubt. But the best way to build a large, strong and loyal customer base is to ensure that the product is affordable for them.
In Oregon, the average of price of flower has reduced to $3.84 in June 2019. As at January 2016, it was as high as $9.28. Between the first quarter of 2016 and the second quarter of 2019, the average price of flower in Colorado has reduced by 44%. While the average price of concentrates has reduces by 26%. Things are quite different is California though. The price of flower only reduced by 3%. While the average price for concentrates and ingestibles increased by 23 and 33 percent respectively.
In the cannabis market, all the customers are after seem to be convenience. Before they venture into buying a product, the consumers crave for convenience. They don’t just want to be convenient when buying, they want to be convenient when consuming also. This clamor for convenience is more common among users that are new to cannabis consumption.
67% of users who shop in dispensaries have identified a convenient location as being very vital to their shopping. Over 50% of the users also claim that one of their top factors in determining whether to buy a product is the form of consumption. Delivery of the product is also a key factor in today’s market, just like with other products and services.
In the world today, convenience of the consumers is key to a successful business model. This is the same with the cannabis industry. The consumers are not just look to consume the product, they want to be convenient while doing so.
Companies and brand that placed their focus on their customer base are bound to flourish. Although there are a lot of customers now flooding the products and a lot of new brands and companies providing competition for themselves, those that have flourished are those ones that place their core on their customers.
It is important for the companies to understand who their core customers are. This includes the discerning consumers. These are the cannabis enthusiasts that have experimented with different cannabis products. They understand the basic behind the cannabis science. It is important for these companies to focus their marketing on their core, even though mainstream consumers keep growing.
The discerning consumers are an important core of the consumer base. They are the early adopters, lead indicators and influencers. They take their time to know and understand details like terpenes, processing methods, packaging, growing methods etc. Companies that have paid
attention to these consumers have flourished more in 2019 and it is likely that this trend continues
In 2019, increasing number of cannabis users seem to pay more attention to the dosage. Users now care more about consistent dosing. They want to be able to control their experiences that they feel afterwards. There are still many consumers who stick to their “wild card’ dosage. But a larger population of consumers now prefer controlled dosage that meets up to the promise that’s set in their label.
43% of people consuming edibles now prefer to settle for the low-dose products. These are products that contain < 10mg of THC in each serving. Of the people consuming ingestibles in legal states, 54% now prefer to choose a product based on its CBD content. 58% of this 54% users prefer to buy products that don’t have THC in them at all or have a higher ratio of CBD to THC. 39% of consumers in legal states claim that manufacturers need more consistency in crafting their dosage. 43% users think that product label should have the intended effect in them, such as energy, relaxation, happiness etc.
Cannabis is already legal in many states and many activists are clamoring for it to be legalized in more states. In places like Connecticut, New Hampshire, New York, New Mexico, Minnesota and Rhode Island, there are moves being made for cannabis to be legalized. In Vermont, possession and cultivation of cannabis is already legalized. The next move is the legalization of dispensaries that sell cannabis to users for recreational purpose.
About 65% of the country supports the federal legalization of cannabis. More than in recent years, the public support for the legalization of cannabis is really high now. It is likely that more states will legalize cannabis. With the increase in CBD education among users in 2019. The public are becoming more knowledgeable about the potential benefits that cannabis and CBD offers the consumers. This has led to more public outcry for the legalization of cannabis in more states. Many states are moving towards decriminalizing marijuana or enacting medical marijuana bill. Passing these bills will definitely be the first steps to full legalization of cannabis.
There are different researches currently ongoing into the different compounds that are in cannabis. It is said that there may be some of these compounds that have anti-cancer properties. Researchers don’t just think that these compounds have anti-cancer properties. They also believe that it may be possible for them to synthesize new compounds from these ones. There’s a possibility that these synthesized compounds will have stronger anti-cancer properties than the ones in natural cannabinoids.
There are many others that think that CBD have antibiotic effects. This means that they may be able to treat infections that are resistant to antibiotics. These researches may result in the creation of topical CBD creams with antibiotic properties. Bacteria do not seem to be CBD resistant. At least, they haven’t shown that over the years. So this might be a viable solution to anti-biotic resistant infections.
This is becoming a more common trend among cannabis users. Some states have already legalized the home cultivation of cannabis. There really is no reason to not plant cannabis since it’s legal in your state. Many cannabis consumers gave themselves more to planting cannabis by themselves. The success of these users have led to more users becoming more interested in growing cannabis by themselves. This trend among users have come to stay with. There are already many sites that give prospective growers DIY tips on how to successfully cultivate different strains of cannabis.
With an increase in cannabis popularity and the clamor for its legalization in all states, users in fully legal state can enjoy their self-grown cannabis.
Availability of more cannabis product
It’s not just new cannabis product that is infiltrating the cannabis market, there are new cannabis strains being created. There’s a strong likelihood that the growth of cannabis-infused beverages and other cannabis products will become rapid. This has led to many more companies investing in cannabis products and the cannabis market. Many of the cannabis beverages are already being made by companies that are mainstay in the beverage and alcohol industry. For example, there are talks already that Coca-Cola might make a carbonated drink that has CBD in it. It is also said that Molson-Coors might also create a beverage with cannabis infused in it.
The federal legalization of CBD may result in some companies selling CBD edibles even though they are not originally a part of the cannabis industry. There’s likelihood that there will be more variety of CBD edibles in the market in coming months. But marijuana flower will still be the most popular form.
The year 2019 has surely been an eventful one in the cannabis industry. The many developments that happened this year leaves the mouth watering for what the year 2020 has in stock. Many of these trends are set to continue into the new year. So many of these developments are here to stay and we can expect to see them birth more fruit in the year 2020.
Read MoreAccording to a survey across Europe, up to 100 million people suffer from chronic pain. In the UK alone, about 28 million people suffer from this medical condition. Over 62% of this ‘suffering’ population are aged 75 and above. In Canada, about 19% of the populations above 18 years of age suffer from chronic pain.
Unlike acute pain which is felt over a short while, chronic pain is felt for a significantly longer period of time. It is felt for a period of 12 weeks or more. It therefore has an impact on the quality of life the patient lives and affects other aspects of their lives. The severity of the pain can range from a mild pain to a very agonizing pain. It can also come in different forms like soreness, stinging, dull aches, burning sensation etc.
It is possible to develop chronic pain after an injury or a medical condition, even after it has been treated. It is often related to medical conditions like fibromyalgia, back injury, cancer, past surgery, migraine, infections, HIV/AIDS, and arthritis. Chronic pain in the body can develop gradually over a period of time or it can just come up suddenly. What is certain is, you can feel it anywhere in your body if it’s present.
According to a recent study in 2019 in the US, about 67% of medical cannabis users mentioned pain as their qualifying condition. Thanks to recent advancement in medical research and the lifting of the prohibitions on cannabis, there are now clinical evidences to show that medical cannabis helps to cure different types of chronic pain. Many medical studies show that cannabis is effective for treating chronic pain from migraine, fibromyalgia, arthritis etc. Many other types of chronic pain from cancer, multiple sclerosis, neuropathy and others are also well managed by cannabis.
There are no precise symptoms of chronic pain except the pain which you already feel. You know you have chronic pain when you feel an ongoing discomfort or pain in your body and it lasts for 3 months, 6 months or longer than that. If the cause and origin of the pain is unknown, it is called chronic pain syndrome (CPS).
There are some secondary symptoms that may be associated with chronic pain syndrome alongside the unexplained pain that you feel. These secondary symptoms are:
• Anxiety and depression: This is caused by fear of the pain or the consequences that the pain might bring.
• Insomnia: The one suffering from chronic pain is unable to sleep because the pain keeps them awake.
• A lack of interest in intimate activities like sex.
• Feeling of guilt: This prevents you from going about your daily life normally as you’re unable to explain the pain that you’re feeling.
• Stress and irritability: You become very irritable and easily stressed out because of the constant pain that you feel in your body.
• Muscle pains and fatigue
It’s important that you see a doctor when you’ve been feeling pains for a period of 12 weeks or more. This is especially if the pain isn’t reducing and/or is getting intense and you can’t give a reason for it. They are more equipped to help you determine the cause of the pain. Apart from this, they can help you with everything you need to relieve the pain and give you the resources to help you cope with chronic pain.
The cause of chronic pain is still very relatively unknown. Many researchers think that there’s a possibility that chronic pain is a learned response. This implies that the pain that the ‘sufferer’ feels was first caused by a physical or medical problem. But even after removing the cause of the pain, the brain continued sending the same pain signals to your body. Researchers also think that people that suffer from chronic pain syndrome (CPS) might react to stress differently from others. This differing reaction to stress might be the reason why they feel pain.
There are many other conditions or incidents that may provoke chronic pain in the body. They include:
• Fibromyalgia: A neurological condition that causes tenderness and pain in different parts of the body, called trigger point.
• Rheumatoid arthritis: An autoimmune disease that brings about inflammation in the joints.
• Osteoarthritis: A type of arthritis that is caused by wear and tear in the body. It occurs when the cartilage between the bones starts to wear away.
• Headaches and back pain: Back pain may be a result of nerve compression, muscle strain or spinal stenosis.
• Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD): IBD results in chronic inflammation of the digestive tract. This can also cause cramping and intestinal pain.
Other medical conditions that can cause chronic pain are:
• Nerve damage
• Cancer
• Endometriosis
• Stomach ulcers and acid reflux
• Broken bones and sprained muscles that still cause pain even after they have healed.
• Infectious etiologies like Lyme disease and herpes infections.
Chronic pain also correlates with the early stages of other chronic health conditions like diabetes, heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, and hypertension.
According to research, there are risk factors that make people that are more susceptible to chronic pain than others. These factors are:
• Depression: Scientists believe that depression can affect the manner in which the brain receives and interprets signals from the central nervous system.
• Serious medical condition: People with medical conditions like arthritis are more prone to chronic pain than others.
• Smoking: People with chronic pain disorders like arthritis and fibromyalgia tend to feel more pain if they also smoke. Experts don’t know why yet, but smoking has the tendency to increase the pain.
• Obesity: According to a report, 50% of the people that are treated for obesity also complain of pains in their body. This might be due to the complex metabolism and interplay of the obesity with hormones in the body. It could also be due to stress caused by the extra weight.
• Females: Hormonal difference and other difference in the male and female nerve fibers may be the reason why females are more sensitive to pain than males.
• Old age: Old age comes with susceptibility to different medical conditions that can cause chronic pain
It was in the 1990s that scientists and doctors only began to understand the interaction of cannabis with the body. That was when researchers discovered that human body naturally produces cannabinoids (which are chemical compounds found in cannabis, like THC and CBD). The cannabinoids produced by the body are called endocannabinoids. While the ones produced by the cannabis plants are called phytocannabinoids.
Thereafter, scientists were able to map out a whole system of receptors that only react to cannabinoids in the body. This system of receptor is known as the endocannabinoid system. It reacts to both endocannabinoids and phytocannabinoids found in the human body.
Medical researchers have also discovered down the years that the endocannabinoid system plays an important role in the regulation of certain functions in the body. Mood, learning and memory, sleep, metabolism and immunity (pain) are some of the functions the endocannabinoid system helps to regulate.
Two major types of pain in the body are nociceptive pain and neuropathic pain. Nociceptive pain is caused by physical harm to the body, like a burn. While neuropathic pain is caused by damage to the nerves that carry pain signals. Endocannabinoid receptors play a key role in how the body regulates and perceives these two types of pain.
Researchers have discovered endocannabinoid receptors in almost all the parts of the pain pathway and in different parts of the peripheral and central nervous system. Other cannabinoid receptors play their role in the reduction and regulation of inflammatory pain in the body.
A number of studies have been carried out to determine if cannabis and cannabinoids are really effective for treating chronic pain.
• According to a review of 32 studies in Australia, cannabinoids can cure pain and muscle spasticity caused by multiple sclerosis.
• A study revealed that medical marijuana relieved 26 fibromyalgia patients of pain. 50% of the patients stopped taking medicines for fibromyalgia but there were mild side effects in about 30% of the patients.
• There was a study in 2010 on cancer pain that didn’t respond to the normal opioid medication. They discovered that another treatment which had both CBD and THC in it resulted in a huge pain relief. 43% of the trial subjects in this study reported an improvement of 30% or more. This result indicates that drugs that have multiple cannabinoids in them have the possibility of being more effective than others that have isolated active ingredients.
• A study was carried out in 2016 to examine the benefits of medical cannabis for people that have different types of chronic pain that are resistant to treatment. The researchers discovered that, apart from reducing pain, cannabis also reduced the number of people using prescription opioid medications.
• Another study in 2016 examined the use of medical cannabis in patients that suffer chronic migraine headaches. The average migraines per month dropped from 10.4 to 4.6. More than 85% of the patients claimed to have suffered fewer migraines.
Although, it is imperative that more clinical trials are carried out on the effectiveness of cannabis for treating chronic pain. There are already enough scientific evidences to prove that cannabis is an effective medical option. The fact that it has a low side-effect profile means that it already is an attractive option.
All the positivity around cannabis is definitely worth it. Many of the researches have concluded that it is effective for treating chronic pain. Even cases that didn’t respond to the conventional treatment method were treated by cannabis. However, this doesn’t mean that it doesn’t have its own downside to it.
The cannabinoid THC is an active therapeutic ingredient for treating chronic pain. But it is also psychotropic and can cause cognitive side effects like impaired memory, euphoria and anxiety.
There’s also the possibility that it might trigger psychosis in many of the users. But other preparations that are rich in CBD, like CBD oil do not intoxicate like THC-rich products.
There are a few other side effects that may be caused by cannabis-based treatment. These side effects include dry mouth, dry eyes, fatigue, changes in appetite, and drowsiness.
These side effects of cannabis-based treatment are however not very strong. This makes cannabis a safe substance to use for the patients. In fact, if you compare cannabis and its side effects to those of many other pharmaceutical drugs prescribed for pain treatment, you’ll realize that cannabis is a lot safer to use. As it stands, there currently are no verified deaths caused by the use of cannabis.
It is a good idea to meet with your doctor first if you’re already considering switching to the use of cannabis for treating chronic pain and other medical issues.
It is important to be able to treat chronic pain as soon as it arises. This is especially because of the disabling symptoms it causes, its correlation with other serious medical conditions and how it affects the quality of life people live.
It is very difficult to completely cure chronic pain but with proper treatment, it is possible to manage it well. There is no one-size-fits-all treatment for chronic pain.
There are different ways and techniques adopted to treat chronic pain in different people. But most often, what works best is a combination of different therapies. It is best to personalize treatment depending on the sufferer and the specific pain that is suffered.
The different treatments that people use to manage pain relief include:
This is usually the first step most people take when they feel chronic pain. But that doesn’t make it the ideal solution to the problem. There’s a risk of dependence or addiction to the pain medication. Cannabis on the other hand, has a low risk of fatal overdose and addiction. This can cause you to seek out stronger and more addictive pain killers. It also doesn’t tackle the root of the problem, which is the cause of the pain.
As a matter of fact, taking antidepressants, muscle relaxants and anti-seizure drugs can help you to control chronic pain better than pain medications or pain killers.
Antidepressants can increase neurotransmitters like dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin. These help to reduce the pain and increase your mood. There are different types of antidepressants. There are SNRIs (serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors), SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) and tricyclic antidepressants. The SNRIs and tricyclic antidepressants are more often used for pain. The side effects include weight gain, nausea and insomnia.
Antiseizure drugs are mainly used for conditions liked bipolar disorder and epilepsy, but they also work for chronic pain. These drugs block the transmission between nerve cells thereby reducing pain. Side effects are fatigue, drowsiness, nausea, increase clumsiness and high irritability.
Anti-anxiety drugs don’t directly reduce pain but they make it easier to manage the pain by improving your sleep and relaxation. Side effects are insomnia, headaches, nausea and restlessness.
Muscle relaxants help to relieve the muscle thereby relieving the pain. Side effects are confusion, headaches, dizziness and depression.
The best way to combat chronic pain is actually to do some exercise. It is ironic because chronic pain can make movement difficult but it works. The body’s natural pain reliever is endorphins and they’re released during exercise.
This will also help boost your mood. But lying in bed makes you weaker and increases the pain. Stress plays a huge role in chronic pain and exercise also reduces stress. It also helps to improve sleep, just like antidepressants.
There are some foods, vitamins, and supplements that help to reduce the pain symptom while some other foods make it worse. Cheese and red wine are some food that can cause severe headaches and migraines.
Although science doesn’t prove it, many people claim that some natural remedies like glucosamine, chondroitin sulphate, and omega-3 & omega-6 fish oil supplements help to relieve their chronic pain.
People undergo different types of alternative therapies to help ease chronic pain in their bodies. Common alternative therapies people undergo are TENS therapy, acupuncture, deep breathing exercise, meditation, biofeedback, and mindfulness.
Many people claim that these treatments are effective against chronic pain. All of these alternative therapies are inexpensive and can be done in your house.
Taking pain-killing medication isn’t the best way to combat chronic pain. It doesn’t deal with the cause of the pain and it has an addictive tendency.
On the other hand, cannabis and cannabis-based drugs are very effective against chronic pain and have milder side effects that can be dealt with easily. The choice should be pretty obvious.
However, since the best way to deal with chronic pain is by combining therapies, it would be good advice to combine cannabis with other effective treatment options like exercising and alternative therapy.
Read MoreMost CBD oil products are gotten from industrial hemp which has less CDB content in them than marijuana. CBD oil makers employ different methods to extract CBD from the hemp before adding it to the carrier oil. Different CBD oil has their different strengths and people apply them in various ways. But many users have come to believe that it is beneficial for pain relief.
According to a study, CDB doesn’t affect the endocannabinoid system in the body directly. What it does is to inhibit or activate other compounds in the endocannabinoid system (ECS). As an example, CBD stops the absorption of anandamide in the body.
This causes an increase in the level of anandamide in the bloodstream. Anandamide is the compound that is responsible for pain regulation in the body. An increased presence means the person would feel less pain. This is in fact, one of the reasons why CBD oil is known to be effective in relieving different types of pains in the body.
In a report published by the journal Cannabis and Cannabinoid Research, people started using cannabis to cure pain as far back as ancient China. By reducing inflammation in the nervous system and the brain, CBD oil might help to ease chronic pain. It is also believed that CBD oil promotes sound sleep and eases insomnia. People experiencing chronic pain can also sleep better as it is said to treat sleep disruption caused by the pain.
CBD oil does not have intoxicating effects unlike tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) which is the compound responsible for highness in cannabis users.
CBD interacts with different proteins within the body system and the central nervous system. This includes interaction with the components of the endocannabinoid system (ECS) in the body. These endocannabinoid system components include receptors located in the central nervous system and the brain.
It also includes other cannabinoid receptors that are found in the immune system and the spleen. When THC interacts with these receptors, it binds strongly to them but CBD is an inverse agonist. So it has an opposite effect to that of THC on the receptors.
What CBD does in the body instead is to inhibit the absorption of anandamide in the body. Anandamide is a natural cannabinoid molecule responsible for regulating pain.
It is also associated with feelings of happiness and well-being. By inhibiting the absorption of these anandamide molecules, the level of anandamide in the bloodstream increases. This leads to a reduction in the feeling of pain throughout the body.
Previous researches have shown that alpha-3 glycine receptors are mostly targeted by CBD in the body. Glycine receptors are important for processing pain in the spine. Targeting them reduces inflammation and suppresses chronic pain associated that are caused by dysfunctional glycine receptors.
Vanilloid receptor TRPV1 is a receptor protein that is responsible for particular control functions like awareness of pain and inflammation in the body. CBD also activates receptor proteins like this in the body.
The expression and sensitivity of TRPV1 receptors increase in people with rheumatoid arthritis and in other cases where chronic pain is associated with a disease.
According to a study published in the British Journal of Pharmacology, CBD has analgesic properties which this receptor mediates. This made the researchers conclude that CBD could be a pharmacological alternative that is useful in the treatment of chronic pain that is associated with diseases.
Another study was published in the Neurotoxicology Journal, September 2015 edition. According to this study, CBD inhibits glutamate (which is responsible for increased sensation and transmission of pain in the body).
CBD reduces the level of glutamate in the brain and in the spinal cord. This consequently leads to a reduction in the pain that the person feels in their body.
There is no specified CBD dosage as directed by the FDA. This means that the CBD dosage is open to people’s personal interpretations. This in itself calls for caution. So anyone who wants to use CBD has to speak to their doctor first. Let the doctor advise you on if it’s a good idea for you or not. Ask the doctor for what dosage to take if they give you the go-ahead to use CBD.
There are different methods of applying CBD into your body. The most commonly used methods are inhalation, ingestion, sublingual and transdermal application.
The optimal dosage for individual depends on factors like body weight, frequency of use, metabolism, and the quality of the CBD product. To find which treatment is most effective for you, you should start with a low but viable dosage.
You can increase the CBD dosage gradually until you are relieved of the pain. Once you know the method of application that works best for you, stick to it. Stick to the dosage that works best for you too, only tweak a little whenever it is necessary.
The best method for applying CBD oil if you’re using it for arthritis pain and muscle spasm is by transdermal patch or applying directly to the skin. According to the animal study on arthritis in 2016, researchers discovered that it is more effective to apply CBD through transdermal application than oral ingestion.
They discovered that the oral bioavailability of CBD is limited while the transdermal application has a therapeutic effect that lasts longer. This makes it better suited as a treatment for muscular pain or arthritis.
Research has also shown that CBD permeates ten times higher than THC when it is applied to the skin topically. You can apply CBD oil to your skin directly like cream or topical gel. To get the best out of CBD oil when you use it for treating pain and other health issues, it’s important for you to differentiate between high-quality CBD products in the market.
There are two sources of CBD products, cannabis-derived CBD product and hemp-derived CBD product. You can legally purchase CBD products that are derived from hemp throughout the United States. According to regulations enforced by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the amount of THC that hemp plants are allowed to have is 0.3%. Therefore, most of the CBD products that are derived from hemp either have a very little amount of THC or they don’t have any THC content in them at all.
CBD products derived from marijuana contains a higher level of THC in them and are only legal in states that legalize marijuana for adult use.
Most people that use CBD oil have a good tolerance for it. But it is possible to still feel some side effects of using this product.
According to a review on cannabis and cannabinoid research, the most common side effects that users feel include:
• Diarrhea
• Tiredness
• Weight loss or weight gain
• Changes in appetite
When you use CBD oil alongside other medications, there is a possibility that the medication works more effectively or less effectively than it should.
This review also points out that some aspects of CBD are yet to be studied by scientists. One of such is the long term effect of CBD on the hormones. Further studies into this long term effect will help to determine if there are any side effects to using CBD in the body over a long period of time.
If you don’t already use CBD oil and you’re considering it. It is advisable that you discuss it with your doctor. This will help the doctor to monitor you in case of any changes and help you make the necessary adjustments.
Another reason you need to consult with your doctor before using CBD is that it may react with some over-the-counter medicines and dietary supplements and some other prescription medication.
It is also possible for CBD to interfere with a particular enzyme called cytochrome p450 complex. This interference can affect the ability of the liver to break down toxins. This increases the risk of toxicity in the liver.
A study also suggests that the anti-inflammatory effect of cannabinoids may reduce inflammation more than they should. This huge reduction in inflammation can diminish the defence system of the lungs and increase the risk of infection. So CBD and other cannabinoids may pose a risk of lungs problem for their users.
It is necessary to also consider that almost all the research carried out on CBD oil and its usefulness in pain reduction use adults during the trials. So it is not safe to use CBD oil on children.
Experts don’t recommend it. This is simply because there is little or no research on how CBD oil affects children or the effect of CBD on the development of a child’s brain. If you have to use CBD oil for a child, for seizures or any other illness, it’s important to firstly consult with your doctor. However, it is not recommended that you use CBD oil while you’re pregnant or while you’re breastfeeding a child.
There are a lot of applications of CBD and other promising possibilities. These uses include:
• Drug withdrawal and smoking cessation
• Treatment of seizures and epilepsy
• Treatment of anxiety
• Reducing the effects of Alzheimer’s
There are many studies that have suggested that CBD oil is very helpful in relieving pains in the body. However, more research has to be carried out using human subjects to determine the long term effects of using CBD.
There are a lot of potentials that CBD oil shows for pain relief. Some anecdotal evidence also suggests that CBD oil can also be used to manage chronic pain in people.
The absence of psychoactivity and a lack of intoxicating effect make CBD oil more promising for treatment. The fact that it has fewer side effects than many other medications that people take for pain increases the prospect.
If you don’t already use CBD oil and you wish to start using it, it is important for you to discuss it with your doctor first.
They can help you determine if it is good for you or not. They will also help you determine the dosage that you are to use.
Read MoreOver the years, there have been various approaches employed in finding the right cannabis strain. Although choosing cannabis at times can be fun and a very easy decision to make. But choosing the right variety of cannabis for a particular individual or condition can be difficult and complicated.
Research has shown that despite searching for the right cannabis strain, some patients are not getting the desired result. Those who have knowledge of cannabis at times can find it difficult to translate into knowing the most suitable variety of cannabis for specific medical needs.
When searching for the right cannabis, it requires getting the right tools and making use of the responsible methodology. Knowing what your needs are before venturing is useful when choosing cannabis strain. Some strains help to focus while some are great for pain management.
The two most commonly used methods of identifying your ideal cannabis strain are:
• Indica/Sativa Method
• Active Compounds Method
While choosing a medicinal cannabis strain, it is necessary to have a basic understanding and full knowledge of the various approaches, especially the difference between indica strains and sativa strains in terms of their medical applications.
The first approach to finding the right strain is Indica or Sativa method. According to research, Indica is attributed to relaxing and calming effects while Sativa strains are said to be more uplifting and energetic.
Unfortunately, it’s not so simple. Before cannabis became federally legal, or socially acceptable strains were broken down into one of these two categories.
Sativa gives the consumer an energetic high while indica can make users a bit sleepy. Knowing which of these strains to choose is what the “Indica-Sativa Method” is all about.
Today, thanks to decades of breeding and playing with strain genetics, the majority of all cannabis strains cultivated are called hybrid strains. Either sativa-dominant or indica-dominant, most strains have both plant types present.
Active Compound Method requires looking into scientific research, which there is nowhere near enough, trying to build the right profile cannabis compounds that will best treat your condition. Finding the product that most closely resembles that profile is called the Active Compounds Method.
The Indica-Sativa Method
One of the most common methods that people choose to use is indica or sativa method. Sativa and indica are Latin terms, they both mean “cultivated”. Each strain is from either sativa or indica plants.
Indica strains are relaxing strains. The physical characteristics of the plant are, they are short and broad plants with wide leaves. Indica sometimes have less Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) than sativas, but amounts vary widely by strain. They tend to have more sedative effects and are for those who need help relaxing or sleeping. People often choose indica to relieve the symptoms of these conditions.
• Insomnia
• Parkinson’s disease
• Anxiety
• Chronic pain
• Arthritis
Sativas, on the other side, have lower levels of myrcene. Sativas characteristics are made of its long, narrow leaves, and tall plants. Unlike indica, Sativas often contain high amounts of THC. They are known to provide therapeutic benefits without causing too much sedation, which is great for those who want to go promote creativity, energy and help with the following conditions.
• Migraines
• Chronic pain
• Glaucoma symptoms
• Nausea
• Low appetite
The botanist, medical researchers have different views about the two words, and their disagreement is about the hierarchy of the two: The question is are they two distinct species of cannabis, or is indica a subspecies of sativa.
But we as non-botanists have out basis in different researches where we get the tips we need. The difference in the classification is mostly about how tall or short the plant is, whether it has a fibrous or woody stalk, what its optimum growing climate is, and what part of the world it comes from. In the mid-20th century, probably around 1960s or ’70s, cannabis enthusiasts began using the terms indica and sativa to describe distinct kinds of cannabis.
Hybrids are crosses between indicas and sativas. They are typically very potent and can offer a blend of therapeutic benefits found in both strain categories. Most of the cannabis you find are dominant hybrids, Generations of cross-breeding have made it pretty rare to find a true indica or sativa these days.
Scientific data backed it up that, there is no real difference between sativa, indica, or hybrids of the two. Over the decades, cannabis smokers use their knowledge of the effect of both strains to identify them. Sativa products are described as uplifting, energizing generally producing a cerebral head high. Indica products are described as calming, relaxing, sedating, and helping with pain relief.
Cannabis Strains are available in the entire spectrum from pure sativas to pure indica, and in every combination in between. There are 30% sativa -70% indica strains, there are 80% sativa- 20% indica strains, and many 50- 50 percent combinations, as well as others.
It takes some time and a lot experimentation to find the most effective balance for each person, but one thing is for sure – there is a cannabis strain available for every smoker and every growing situation.
• Indica/sativa strain helps to relieve chronic pain.
• Combining sativa genes with an indica strain can aid mental clarity and decrease sedative effects.
• Adding indica to sativa strains can lower the tendency of pure sativas occasionally stimulating anxiety.
• Sativa strains are most effective for the treatment of nausea such as appetite stimulation, migraine headaches, depression, etc.
Uses of Medicinal Cannabis Indica
• The indica strain is centered in the body which relaxes muscle tension.
• It is effective in treating muscle spasms and tremors
• Cannabis sativa strains provide a cerebral, energetic high effect which is experienced in the mind as well as in the body.
• It is also useful for the treatment of nausea
This method deals with a lot of scientific research. All cannabis plants contain the active compounds known as cannabinoids. The two main cannabinoids are:
Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)
Cannabidiol (CBD)
Cannabinoids are the most active cannabis compound and typically the biggest players when it comes to choosing a strain for a specific condition. While there are several different cannabinoids that contribute to the therapeutic effects of cannabis, THC and CBD are the most prevalent.
A number of scientists also believe that terpenes influence cannabis’ therapeutic effects in a medical context.
THC: This is the most well-known cannabinoid. It’s accepted as a potential analgesic, anti-depressant, anti-nausea, and helps with muscle spasms and sleep disorders. It is the most suitable choice for those who need help to relax from stress or to fall asleep. Also, it can help you fall asleep faster and even help reduce nightmares. It’s also great for:
• Pain relief
• Appetite stimulation
• Depression
• Relaxation
CBD: This is a powerful anti-inflammatory, anti- seizure, and anti-anxiety agent. In most medicinal cannabis strains, THC makes up the majority of the active ingredients, while CBD represent a much smaller fraction. For instance, a potent strain may be measured at 19% THC, but will typically contain less than 1% CBD.
Strains that are high in CBD are preferable for those who want to avoid the ‘high’ associated THC and those who need localized pain management. It also has a positive effect on mood and counteracts potential adverse side effects of THC like anxiety or memory imbalance. People choose CBD to help manage issues like:
• Anxiety
• Seizures
• Muscle spasm
• Overall wellness
• A while range of other conditions
While CBD is not considered psychoactive in itself, it can impart many of the medicinal benefits of cannabis and can also moderate the effects of THC. The relationship between the two main cannabinoids goes some way in explaining the different effects of the numerous strains. Sativa strains normally have medium to high THC and a relatively low CBD content.
Varieties of cannabis with very high levels are being developed. These strains allow patients to experience the benefits of medicinal cannabis without experiencing a strong psychoactive effect. However, there are also other attributes of some major cannabinoids and terpenes.
Terpenes are basically the essential oils of the plant, and are mostly found in the tiny mushroom-like crystal. Terpenes are what give a strain its specific taste and aroma, as well as some of its therapeutic benefits. There are many types of terpenes, and it takes a little time and experience to become familiar with how they can benefits you.
It’s best to start by choosing strains with aromas you find pleasant. It’s also a good idea to ask your dispensary staff to recommend strains with specific terpenes that can help you achieve your desired outcome. Major terpenes in cannabis are:
• CBG, a cannabinoid, is a potential neuro-proctectant and anti-bacterial agent.
• Limonene, another terpene, is known as a potential relaxant by its anti-anxiety and anti-stress properties.
• Myrcene, a terpene, relaxes motor neurons, and is related to sleep regulation and general relaxation.
• I2-caryophyllene, yet another terpene often found in cannabis, is anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial.
All things considered, the tendency of cannabis marketers to indicate the cannabinoid and terpenoid profile of their products would seem to be a positive development. It allows users to examine the active ingredients in their cannabis products as opposed to only their taxonomic origin.
The effects of a strain can vary widely from person to person, so the best way to find the right strain for your condition is to do some experimenting. Starting a cannabis journal can help you develop an understanding of how different strains make you feel. By writing down the strain, your consumption method, and your experience, you’ll develop a personal database of the effectiveness of different products and how they contribute to your wellbeing.
The following are some of the popular cannabis strain that are available in the market today:

There are a lot of cannabis strain available in the market today. If you’re taking cannabis for its medical benefits, you should know that not all of them are right for everyone and not all of them work for every medical issue. It is important for you to know which strain best addresses your medical issue. You might have to research which strain has the active compounds to address your medical issues. Even at that, you’ll likely still find a lot of strains that fall in your preferred category. You might have to use different strains and see how you react to them before determining which one works best for you.
Read MoreCannabidiol (CBD) and other cannabis-derived phytocompounds are proving to be quite therapeutically beneficial. CBD is a holistic alternative that works with our own body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS) to help our body heal from the inside out.
Every person and pet possesses an ECS. While dogs have more CB2 receptors than other mammals, why our bodies come equipped with one is relatively the same. Think of your pet’s ECS as a molecular crime-fighting team.
Whenever your pet falls ill or gets injured, this tiny built-in security force jumps into action to monitor, protect, and to react to potential threats. CBD may be derived from the same plant that produces euphoria-producing THC, but it has its own beneficial properties that are not psychoactive.
Your pet also produces its own cannabinoid receptors. Today, the most common studies are CB1 and CB2 receptors. They send signals from different areas and other systems in your pet’s body to its ECS. Then, the endocannabinoid receives these messages and acts respond accordingly.
For example, if your dog is developing red raised bumps on its skin, it may be having a reaction that was originally caused by a disruption in their digestive system. The red raised rash is only a sign of the issue, not the root cause.
By helping your pet restore body-balance and promote homeostasis from within, your pet can live a healthy and happy life without the use of prescription painkillers.
CBD is one of many therapeutically beneficial cannabinoids derived from the cannabis plant. By using various extraction methods (supercritical CO2 being the cleanest) cannabidiol found in the trichomes (resin glands) of the plant is separated from the plant matter and turned into oil formulations.
When cannabis was first put under the microscope back in 1964, research scientists were mainly focused on the psychoactive compound THC. It was the first isolated and characterized cannabinoid that brought cannabis to the forefront of scientific research.
Cannabis has been used to treat aches, pains, and discomforting symptoms for centuries prior to scientists stepping in. CBD is one of over 80 cannabis-derived cannabinoids that have been identified. Using cannabinoids together instead of separately is is more effective, but THC-rich products may not be ideal for our furry friends.
Instead, those using CBD oil for their pets opt for CBD-rich or CBD isolate oils as opposed to a full-spectrum oil.
If the CBD oil you are using on your pet has less than 0.03% THC present, you can be sure your pet will not get high. CBD oil has been used to treat stress, anxiety, back pain, and is known to promote optimal body wellness from the inside out.
Pets who suffer from severe medical conditions like seizures are also seeing an improvement in their symptoms after their owners began to incorporate CBD into their daily regime.
Just like CBD in humans, we have quite a ways to go before we can factually say that CBD possesses an array of benefits. What we do know is that real people and real pets are seeing real results by using CBD.
Whether its reducing stress and anxiousness or calming painful bouts of swelling and achiness, one thing we can agree on is that a holistic solution that doesn’t cause liver or kidney damage after long term use is something to look into, right?
Scientific research is showing that CBD can effectively reduce skin irritations, improve gastrointestinal health, minimize swelling, and promote homeostasis in our pets.
The American Kennel Club may say there are no formal studies conducted on how effective CBD, but there are clinical studies and anecdotal evidence published on many reputable scholarly websites.
The fact is, our alternatives to health-care are NSAIDs ( Advil) and opioids (Tylenol). When your only solution is drugs that cause damage to vital organs with long-term use, CBD seems like a ray of light in a dark place.
Because science is very much still in its infancy regarding cannabinoids and its potential therapeutic effects in our pets, we are not allowed to say for sure that it can alleviate, treat, or cure a diagnosable disease. I use the words can’t say because the FDA has made it crystal clear that the health industry has to write complaint copy.
What I can say is that it may alleviate symptoms of:
• Physical Pain
• Anxiousness
• Sadness
• Stiffness
• Stomach Issues
• Skin Issues
• Onest of Old Age
Because our pets are equipped with their own ECS, cannabinoids like CBD interact with these receptors that help regulate, monitor, and protect vital systems in their bodies. Your pet’s digestive system, nervous system, and other vital bodily functions are regulated monitored and controlled by its ECS.
We are just understanding that CBD can help our pet’s cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2) fight off many unwanted symptoms like sadness, stress as well as physical aches, irritations, and stomach issues.
Joint pain is a major problem for dogs that are ageing. Well, it’s a problem for anyone who is ageing but for the sake of this article, we’re talking about dogs. Today the most common to aid our ageing friends is the same method we have: over the counter and prescribed pain medication like Advil and Tylenol.
Anxiousness and stress is another common issue among dog owners. Whether your dog is left for a few hours while you run shopping, or for only a split second as you load him in the back of the truck and walk to the front.
Both physical pain and mental symptoms like stress in dogs may be significantly reduced by incorporating CBD oil into your dog’s diet twice per day.
This study shows that CBD can be an effective pain treatment alternative that is safer and healthier than prescribed pain medication.
Cats possess an ECS like other mammals, but unlike dogs, they have a lower count of CB2 receptors throughout their body. While we can’t say that this decreased presence of CB2 receptors affects how CBD interacts with your cat’s ECS, we can say that pet owners are seeing positive results when treating their feline companies with CBD.
Skin irritations that lead to itching and redness may be decreased when applying topical CBD pet creams in combination with an oral CBD oil. Gastrointestinal irritations, upset stomach, or lack of appetite may stem from an imbalance in your cat’s ECS.
the cannabinoids your cat’s body produces may need a helping hand to help your cat heal. By adding CBD oil to your cat’s diet twice daily, you are helping your cat’s body help itself.
Cannabidiol is proving to be quite the natural powerhouse when it comes to equine medicine. Horses can promote and enhance mental, emotional, and physical health for horses who suffer from pain, stress, anxiousness, stiffness, or have digestive irregularities.
CBD works on your horses’ body just like its own cannabinoids would. CBD gives your horses’ ECS a helping hand, which in turn helps your horse heal from unwanted symptoms.
Because science is still very far from understanding the truly beneficial effects of CBD and other cannabinoids, we have to go by anecdotal results. That just means, our information comes from people who have used a high-quality CBD to help heal their horse, and who have seen effective results.
Because cannabis compounds like CBD help our ECS, a high-quality CBD oil can help your horse ease unwanted health conditions like stiffness, swelling, pain, stress, and anxiousness.
The endocannabinoid system in all mammals monitors and regulates our gastrointestinal system, nervous system, heart, skin, brain, and so much more. The wonders of cannabinoids are that they work very similar to the way CB1 and CB2 receptors function.
When it comes to giving your pet CBD, oral administration of a premium CBD oil or edible dog treats are the most common methods of consumption.
What you should look for in a CBD company before you purchase is how the CBD was grown, cultivated, and extracted. The company should also be providing you with a batch number and accompanying batch test results, and you should look for a brand that has 100% transparency.
CBD is all over the place. Because there is a severe lack of regulation regarding this supplement, it’s very much like the wild wild west. When it comes to your pet’s health you want to give them the safest, most effective product available.
Look for a company that uses cannabis-derived CBD and not hemp. Be sure that the THC concentration is less than 0.03%.
Cats and dogs with aching joints, stiffness, or with minor skin irritations my benefit from incorporating a CBD-rich topical product like lotion or salve. Because topical products do not penetrate all seven layers of skin, it is best to use this method along with an oral CBD pet treat or oil.
You are looking for certified organic CBD products that are designed and formulated specifically for pets. Avoid using a CBD-rich lotion or salve if the company does not disclose batch numbers and corresponding lab results for that batch.
Just like human children, we want to protect and help our pets when they fall ill or injure. By sourcing a CBD-rich product that follows these simple guidelines, you take confidence in knowing the product you are using is not only safe, but it is also effective.
For those finicky pets that won’t allow you to put medicine straight in their mouth or those foodie pets that stick up their nose to anything that doesn’t taste good, CBD pet treats are your go-to option.
Pet treats come in tantalizing flavors like bacon, so giving your pet its daily dose of CBD comes without fuss. Some people say a pet treat is less effective than CBD oil itself. That’s not necessarily true.
It is the quality of the CBD oil that is in the pet treat or CBD oil that makes or breaks a product. Knowing where the brand sources its CBD, how the CBD is extracted, and how they manufacture their CBD products are the most important pieces of information.
Using a reputable CBD pet treat brand that’s mission is to help pets heal themselves naturally is will give you peace of mind, and it will also provide your pet with the natural relief of pain, swelling, skin irritations, and anxiousness.
CBD Oil can be added to your pet’s existing food and treats, or it can be given to your pet orally without the need of food. This method of consumption may take some trial and error when it comes to ideal dosing sizes.
Keeping track of what time and how often you give your pet CBD is important. A CBD journal can be helpful to keep track of how your dog felt after consumption, how frequently they are taking CBD, and how much CBD is used.
Dosing typically goes by weight and concentration level. Because each CBD oil company is different, following the directions on the label is a good starting point.
A premium CBD oil for pets will come with a batch number and lab-test results that show purity levels, cannabinoid potency, as well as trace compounds analyzation. Meaning, if there are any trace amounts of heavy metals, herbicides, or pesticides present, these lab tests will provide you with the data you need to make an informed decision for your pet.
There are three important factors that play a vital role in how a CBD dose will affect your pet:
• The size and weight of your pet
• The reason your pet is using CBD
• The cannabinoid potency of the CBD oil or treat
Keeping these factors in mind along with following the advice of your get will help you give your pet the best CBD experience. If your pet has a low activity level, it may take longer for him/her to metabolize CBD.
Source a premium CBD product that has a batch number, third-party lab results, and free of residual compounds that may be harmful like heavy metals and pesticides. Not all CBD products are made equally. Hemp-based CBD-rich products that come from overseas have the possibility of being created with highly toxic industrial-grade hemp that may cause more harm than do good.
The general rule of thumb for both humans and pets that are starting their CBD journey is start low, go slow. Starting with a small dose and gradually increasing it is the safest way to calculate your pet’s ideal CBD dose.
Follow the CBD manufacturer’s guidelines on the label. A reputable CBD vendor will provide detailed instructions on how to use their products effectively.
Calculating CBD doses takes some simple math skills and some experimentation. If you are planning to treat physical aches and pains like stiffness and achiness, you need to figure out how many milligrams your pet should take per dose based on how much they weigh.
If this is your first rodeo, start with 0.2mg of CBD/ per lb. If your pet is 50lbs, you would give them 10mg of CBD.
The next step is to figure out how many milligrams (mg) of CBD are in every millilitre (ml) of the CBD oil you purchased. While every product and manufacturer varies, the most common CBD concentrations we’ve seen address both minor ailments with extracts at 75mg of CBD we well stronger extractions near 600mg CBD for more serious ailments.
75mg CBD oil: 2.5mg CBD/per 1ml
300mg CBD oil: 10mg CBD/per 1ml
600mg CBD oil: 20mg CBD/ per 1ml
Pro tip: Your pet’s ECS and medical issues are unique, so no two pets may experience the same outcome. Utilizing the therapeutic benefits of CBD comes to wit a lot of experimentation in the beginning.
Find your pet’s ideal dose based on their needs. Cannabinoids give a helping hand to cannabinoid receptors your pet’s body creates.
If you want a reliable, convenient, and effective alternative to measuring your pet’s CBD oil twice per day, try capsules or dog treats instead.
CBD-rich pet treats are available for cats, dogs, and some companies offer treats for horses as well. CBD capsules are like a treat in that each CBD dose is accurately calculated and measured into easy to understand serving sizes.
They are different in the sense that you would be mixing CBD capsules into their food whereas a CBD-infused treat is a food itself.
The most frequently reported downsides of incorporating CBD into your pet’s therapeutic regimen is drowsiness. Very few pet owners reported their animals became nauseous and even less say their animal reacted negatively or felt anxious after consuming CBD oil.
Finding your pet’s ideal CBD dose, and the best product that will get to the root cause of their issues might take a little time, but with a little patience you will figure it out. Helping your pet restore mind/body balance is just as vital is maintaining your own.
Finding a reputable CBD company that puts your pet’s health and wellbeing first, and that stands behind their products with transparency like third-party lab results should be priority number one.
If you’re considering CBD for your pets, but you don’t know where to start, simply read a company’s verified reviews. These are customers that have purchased the product already and left their options and thoughts about their experience.
Having a pet should mean spending time with them and living a full life together. CBD may be the holistic solution that may boost your pet’s overall well being and promote homeostasis giving them the ability to be the cherry, happy, and playful companion you know they are.
There are many therapeutic benefits CBD is proving to possess. With the biggest risk associated with it is tiredness and the most common effects are homeostasis, it may be worthwhile to give it a try.
Our pets have their own ECS and create their own cannabinoid receptors, CBD helps their body heal itself. If you have any questions about CBD, please leave them down below. And as always, stay lifted!
Read MoreVaping your weed is one of the best ways to use your cannabis effectively. It is not only healthier than smoking, but it is also cheaper. Another advantage of using vaporizer that many cannabis users might not know about is that, you are able to reuse your already vaped bud. Vaped weed usually appears brownish and degraded. This gives the impression that the weed is no longer useful and should be thrown out but that’s not true.
Before we go further into the different ways to reuse AVB or ABV, it’s important to know what it is.
AVB means already vaped bud while ABV means already been vaped. This is the remains of the leftover that are found in your dry herb vaporizer after you’re done with a vaping session. This vaped bud are not supposed to appear too dark, this indicates that it is still good for reuse. But there’s a possibility for the vaped bud to appear very dark. This indicates that you didn’t have a healthy sesh and the vaped weed is no longer useful for other use.
The lighter the vaped weed also is, the more the cannabinoid content that is in it. But there’s no means to carry out any test to determine the THC/CBD content left in a vaped weed. So the only viable way to determine the usefulness of the vaped weed is by looking at the color. If the cannabis is vaped correctly, at the right temperature, it will have a roast look with a medium brown color. If the color of the vaped bud appears too dark, then you can safely discard it as useless.
Vaped weed usually contains some amount of cannabinoids that you can still put to good use. There are many ways to reuse your vaped weed and some of the common ways are water curing, making into edibles, tinctures, cannabis capsules, cannabutter, firecrackers etc. Many of these usages are discussed further in this article.
This is one of the commonest way to reuse the already vaped weed. It is a very simple process. It is a very necessary process especially if you plan to use the AVB in drinks or edibles. Water curing helps to take away the ‘weed taste’ from the weed. Water curing the weed might take a few days or up to a week. While some do it for just some few hours. It totally depends on how long you are willing to cure the weed. However, we don’t recommend that you water cure it for more than a week. Typically 4-7 days is ideal to water cure your weed.
Water curing is simply a process where you soak the already vaped weed in water for a period of time. The reason for water curing the AVB is to remove the taste and smell that the weed has after vaping. This smell and taste of the AVB isn’t usually pleasant, so it is advisable that you water cure the weed.
The process of curing is a very simple one. But for it to be more effective, it is advisable that you have a large amount of AVB first and cure them all at once. This is more ideal rather than curing them in parts and bits.
Directions for water curing AVB
• Grind the AVB well and put it in a cheesecloth. Make a teabag out of the cheesecloth by tying it together in a ball tightly. This will ensure that the AVB doesn’t escape.
• At room temperature, put the teabag cheesecloth in distilled water until it is fully submerged in the water.
• Leave the cheesecloth in the water until the water becomes fully discolored. Then strain the water from the cloth completely before placing it in another fresh water or simply changing the water it was in previously.
• Continue this process until the water is completely clear or whenever you feel the process has cured the AVB enough.
• Untie the cloth and bring out the AVB from it. The process would have cured the AVB by now and it’s now good for use in oil or butter.
• You can dry the AVB in an oven at a very low heat until it dries up completely.
• Cover the AVB in a foil and freeze it overnight.
Once you’ve carried out all of the above processes, the smell and taste of the AVB would have improved vastly. Ensure you store it in a sealed container for future usage.
Decarboxylation is an important process for preparation of cannabis edibles and vaping is a form of decarboxylation. In order to turn the THCA (cannabinoid acid) into active THC, you must heat the cannabis. This process typically takes a lot of time in the oven. To create your cannabis edible, you will be needing butter or coconut oil (if you are a vegan). The potency of your cannabis edible depends on how long you spend saving up the already vaped bud.
The first thing you have to do is to infuse your butter with the AVB.
• Put the butter or coconut oil in a saucepan with the vaped weed and some amount of water equal to the vaped weed in the pan. Heat the saucepan, to a point just below boiling point, over low heat.
• It takes about 2-4 hours for the infusing process to become very effective. But you can leave the saucepan for a while longer if you want to. You just have to ensure that it doesn’t boil, rather it simmers. Allowing it to boil will reduce the potency of the cannabinoid. You should also know that this process will likely create a smell that will pollute the air in your kitchen.
• After you are done simmering the mixture, strain it through a cheesecloth or mesh sieve. This will separate the lumpy parts of the mixture. Ideally, you would want to ensure that the amount of plant matter that you get is as little as possible.
• Leave the cannabis-infused butter in the bowl to cool before you place it in the fridge overnight.
• By the next morning, the water top would have a hardened layer of butter on it. Remove this hardened butter layer and add it to any recipe of your choice. This will give you a highness from the edible that can last as long as 4 hours at least and as long as 8 hours at most.
This is one edible that you can easily infuse your weed into. It also has a fat content that helps to carry the weed and ensure that you feel its effect as soon as possible. The chocolate adds to the great taste but also create a chemical euphoria that you feel. According to studies, chocolate causes endorphins to be released in the human brain. This release increases the production of serotonin, which is the happy hormone.
Chocolate brownies are a good choice of edibles to mix the AVB with. You can as well add the AVB to just the chocolate and skip the brownies.
This is another popular method of taking cannabis. You will need a dropper bottle to be able to administer the cannabis oil directly under your tongue. This is a fast way to see the effect of cannabis. You start to feel the effect of the weed as early as 15 minutes from the time you administer it. And this effect can last for hours. You just administer 2-3 drops of the oil under your tongue and hold it there for about 30 seconds.
You can also make cannabis tincture from the remains of your vaped weed.
• The first thing to do is to get an alcohol, add the weed to it and leave the weed to steep. Once in every while, shake the mixture gently. Leave the mixture for a few hours or a few days. The potency of the cannabis in the mixture depends on how long you leave the mixture alone. It becomes more potent when you leave it for a longer while.
• After leaving the mixture for a few days, strain it through a fine mesh, sieve or a cheesecloth. Store it in a dark container, away from the sunlight, in a cool place.
You can apply the mixture with a dropper bottle under your tongue. You get the benefit of the cannabinoids left in this AVB mixture within minutes of applying it under your tongue. And it is as potent as other high quality cannabis oils, especially if you leave the mixture for a longer while after adding the weed to the alcohol.
You can use your already vaped bud in a lot of ways once you add butter to the AVB. Adding butter makes it a versatile source of food, you can spread it on a toast for breakfast in the morning or you can bake it.
• To make the weed butter, the first step to take is to melt the butter. Then you add the already vaped bud to it.
• Place the mixture of butter and AVB on a low heat for a period of 40 minutes.
• Take it off the heat before straining the butter into a butter sieve using a sieve.
• In order to extract the cannabutter, you have to push the herb very firmly against the sieve you’re using for the extraction.
• At this point, you don’t need the cooked herb, so you can discard it.
Refrigerate the butter, and if you need to stock it up, you can freeze it.
It might not be a good idea to add the AVB into your morning coffee or morning tea directly. This is because of the taste and smell of the AVB. It might just spoil your tea or coffee for you. But you can add a little of your cannabutter into your morning coffee. It might not sound right taking butter with coffee. But it’s quite good and a lot better than directly adding the AVB into the coffee. Adding cannabutter to your tea might not have a taste as good as adding it to the coffee.
A very stealth and easy way to take in THC is to take it in capsules, rather than smoking it. Making THC capsules on your own is a relatively easy thing to do. And it’s possible for you to reuse your vaped weed to make these capsules.
It is not right to throw raw AVB into a capsule. So the first thing to do is to infuse the already vaped bud into coconut oil. Add half teaspoon of lecithin into this coconut oil and AVB mixture before pouring it into the capsule. The dosage of the capsule will depend on the potency of the AVB and the ratio of oil. You can start with one capsule, then two, see how you react to it and determine what your dosage is.
This is another very easy way to make cannabis edibles and it requires little to no effort. All you need to do is to get some graham crackers and spread a little peanut butter on it. Then sprinkle some of the AVB on it before sandwiching them together. Wrap up the cracker in an aluminum foil and bake it in the oven for about 10 to 15 minutes, in a temperature of around 365oF.
You can also use saltine crackers with Nutella. You can add coconut oil to it to increase the amount of fat needed for THC metabolization to take place.
You have to realize that with these crackers, you can only eat more and not less. This means that you can have a very intense experience depending on how much you can tolerate. So it is advisable that you start eating it slow. Then wait for a while, maybe 30 minutes at least. See how you react to it before determining whether to eat more or not. Unless you are already familiar with the effects of the initial dose of crack that you took, it is not advisable that you eat more of it.
It is actually possible to still use the already vaped weed to make concentrates. But you have to know that you will be needing a large quantity due to the potency of the cannabinoid in the AVB which is lower than that of normal concentrates.
The best way to extract the remaining THC is by using a solvent like alcohol or a rosin press. After extracting the remaining cannabinoids, the next step is to dab the concentrates. You can do this using the wax pen or a vaporizer that is equipped with oils and vaporizing wax.
This isn’t something that you see every day but some people actually like to sprinkle their AVB on a pizza. If you don’t mind doing this, I recommend that you get a fresh and thin crust that would not require you to heat it too much, so that you don’t end up overcooking it. You can mask the AVB’s taste by adding some other flavorsome and more powerful toppings on your pizza and maybe some very strong cheese.
Coconut oil is a very versatile ingredient that is used regularly for stirring, frying, and baking. You can also add it to coffees and teas. It is not only versatile, it is also a very tasty ingredient.
Coconut oil has a lot of health benefits, including having natural saturated fats in it, which is good for the health of the heart. For this cause, the most important feature of coconut oil is the level of effectiveness it has in carrying AVB. It absorbs THC a lot better than other carriers with less fats. This makes the infusion of the AVB very potent. This is one of the reasons why many users prefer to use coconut oil. When making brownies, coconut oil can also be added as one of the ingredients that is used.
You can use the AVB to make your own rick Simpson oil. It will obviously not be as potent as the dry herb that has not been vaped at all. but it is believed that it still has as much as 40 percent of the original THC content present in the AVB.
You can extract the THC from the AVB but you will be using some alcohol in the process. It is not exactly a straightforward process and it might require you making some research before going through with it.
Most people prefer to use dry herbs so they can get the highest level of THC that can possibly get. But in the absence of dry herbs, the already used bud is still a very good and viable option. It’s definitely one you should try out.
If you’re someone who naturally enjoys blending and taking smoothies, then this should be an easy addition to the process.
Vaped weed are more useful than many people know them to be. These are ways you can use your AVB and still enjoy the THC left in it.
Read MoreUnless you’ve been lost in the arctic circle or living under a rock, you know what CBD is. For those that have been living under a rock, you don’t need us to explain it to you.
CBD is a versatile little phytocompound that can be eaten, drank, vaped, inhaled, and slathered all over your body.
CBD-rich topical creams are more than just the latest skincare or health craze. While most products are buzzing with other beneficial ingredients like Vitamin E and mint extracts, CBD-rich topicals are only one part of a full-body solution when it comes to treating unwanted skin irritations.
While understanding how versatile this little cannabinoid can be is very much in its infant stage and research still needs to be conducted, we do know that it posses an array of pretty neat therapeutic benefits.
These benefits stem from helping our body heal itself. Have I lost you? Not to worry, we’ll get to that down below. But basically, CBD works with your body to promote wellness and body-balance.
From physical pain and tension to common skin irritations, a CBD topical can help reduce and prevent unwanted ailments. Topical means a product you apply to your skin. Most CBD products only penetrate the first layer of skin and do not reach all seven layers.
The bioavailability of a CBD-rich topical product is quite low. If you are using CBD to treat ongoing symptoms it is best to use a combination of CBD products with different methods of consumption.
Unfortunately, science is so scarce that I can barely prove my point with what limited research has been published. Fortunately, I’ve found enough to get you educated. These are the things you should know about before you give a CBD topical product a whirl.
This study and this study show what we’ve got to work with regarding topical CBD products and effectively treating both skin irritations and minor pain. Unfortunately, we don’t have enough human clinical trials to understand the ideal dose for pain-relieving effects.
Topical CBD products are applied to the skin whereas vapes and edibles are ingested and CBD tinctures are taken sublingually (under the tongue). The epidermis is the first of seven layers of our skin. This layer of skin is the barrier to other layers: dermis and hypodermis. It protects against chemicals, pathogens, and UV rays.
It makes sense the epidermis is hard to penetrate. This means that topical products (including CBD products) will not reach the other layers of our skin, and they definitely do not penetrate the blood-brain barrier and enter the bloodstream.
First time CBD users should try a topical product prior to using a tincture if they are concerned about cannabinoids entering their body. There are a few notable texture differences when it comes to CBD topicals. They each have their own classifications. The most common CBD topicals that have their own ingredients and functions are:
• Oils
• Creams
• Salves
• Serums
• Creams
For those that use a CBD topical product daily on tense and sore areas, they have seen an improvement in their symptoms. While the science isn’t there to say for sure it is the product, we do know that CBD possesses an array of therapeutic benefits.
Because we don’t have accurate dosage guidelines when it comes to applying a CBD topical product, it relies on the consumer to apply as much or as little as they would like to.
While the CBD in lotions, salves, and balms do not penetrate the blood-brain barrier, they can be effective for local (general area) pain relief and reducing skin irritations.
There are three simple steps to applying CBD topical products and they are prepared, apply, and indulge!
The area you want to apply to your CBD-rich lotion, cream, or salve should be washed with soap and water. Remove any clothing that may cover the area as well. Make sure the application area is completely dried.
With your fingertips, take some of your CBD topical product and apply it to the area that you want to reduce pain and discomfort. Gently massage the topical into the skin in a circular direction. Ensure that the CBD topical has been completely absorbed and is dried before you apply any more.
Indulge
Within moments you will begin to experience a nice relaxation effect. Although the true nature of healing will greatly depend on the CBD potency, a sense of calm is to be expected. If you are applying a CBD cream to a bite, burn or sting, apply the lotion around the area that surrounds the main point of pain.
CBD is a non-psychoactive cannabis compound. Meaning, it does not get you high. Even if THC were present above the legal 0.03% amount, topical products do not penetrate all seven layers of skin and enter the bloodstream.
Because CBD doesn’t produce psychoactive effects and that legal CBD topicals are not allowed to contain more than 0.03% THC, do not expect any euphoric results. A full-spectrum CBD product will contain a trace amount of THC, but not enough to affect your perspective.
CBD topicals are special because unlike other methods of consumption, a lotion will not interact directly with your endocannabinoid system (ECS).
For local relief of pain, redness, and other minor skin issues, a CBD topical can be greatly effective. There is absolutely no way you can get stoned from using a CBD topical lotion.
While cannabinoid-rich products are taking over the holistic health scene, topical products are unique. The method of application, the effects, the cost, the concentration, and dosage calculations are much different than a CBD tincture or CBD-rich edible.
The cost of CBD-rich topical products is quite reasonable. Even for a high-end serum, you can expect to pay about $0.30 per milligram or about $30 per bottle. There are pricier products on the market. The ingredients used to manufacture the product will also play a role in the cost.
Applying CBD topicals cannot penetrate the bloodstream, so you will not be receiving the full effects of any cannabinoids, including CBD.
Unfortunately, the dosage amount and frequency depend on many factors including the product you are using, the CBD potency, as well as the reason you are using the product.
CBD via topical products will never actually take effect like a tincture, an edible, or a vape extract. However, a full-spectrum CBD product will be much more beneficial than a product made with isolated CBD.
Why? This is because of the entourage effect meaning, the cannabinoids derived from cannabis work better together as a team than they do when they are separated.
The concentration of CBD in the topical you choose will vary from product to product. Low-potency options from 250 to 300mg as well as high-potency options with up to 100mg of CBD are available.
While most CBD products have dosage recommendations, when it comes to topicals, you don’t have to concern yourself with factors like your weight or how often you apply.
Using a CBD-rich topical depends more on the level of pain or irritation that is bothering you.
Since CBD topicals aren’t regulated, the first thing you need to figure out is how much CBD is alleged to be in the product. If you are using CBD for pain, there are other methods of administration that treat more than locally. Unfortunately, we can’t say for certain what the ideal dose is for CBD topicals.
You might want to go with the highest dose possible, but the choice is yours. Remember also that some minor side effects are associated with some forms of CBD. Lower blood pressure and tiredness are the most common downsides. Unlike CBD tinctures or edibles, a CBD topical product will not penetrate the blood-brain barrier and enter your bloodstream.
The lack of regulation means that anyone with a CBD product can make a store and begin selling. The fact is: people are selling products making false CBD claims-including topicals.
Before you choose a product, make sure that the company is providing a certificate of analysis, a batch number, and third-party lab testing results for the corresponding products. This gives you peace of mind knowing the exact contents of the product you’re using.
CBD products are classified as safe to use and non-toxic. To be fair, not enough human clinical studies have been conducted on the long-term effects of using cannabinoid therapies. Because CBD is seen as a health supplement, the FDA does not evaluate these products like other health-related products.
Most of the side effects associated with CBD are considered not-life-threatening. With CBD in general, the most commonly reported downsides of consuming CBD are:
CBD is known to promote sleep quality, which makes it a top-notch holistic sleep aid. Unfortunately, taking too much CBD may make you feel sedated and lethargic. Avoid strenuous activities that require attention to detail and the ability to focus if you feel as though you’ve consumed too much CBD.
For those taking medications that affect your blood pressure or for those that have ongoing low blood pressure should speak with a doctor before using CBD.
However, a CBD topical does not interfere or penetrate your bloodstream, making it an ideal choice for those who may be taking blood thinners.
Taking too much CBD may negatively affect your digestive system creating unwanted digestive issues like lack of appetite and diarrhea.
CBD topicals have specific health concerns like allergy reactions. Although it is highly unlikely you are allergic to CBD (as your body creates its own endocannabinoids), there are other ingredients like essential oils that may initiate an allergic reaction in users.
Read the label if you are known to have allergies when using essential oils, and other ingredients typically found in lotion, cream, and salves.
Do not apply CBD topicals to open cuts, sores, or wounds. Doing so creates a serious potential for infection and other adverse reactions.
Most reputable CBD brands will provide an extensive ingredient list explaining what exactly is in their products. They will also produce third-party lab results, THC content information, as well as a batch number for their products.
It is up to the CBD manufacturer to be transparent because cannabidiol and other cannabis compounds are not regulated or monitored by the FDA.
If you are using CBD to reduce ongoing physical aches and pains, it is best to combine it with another method of consumption like a CBD tincture or CBD gummy. This is because topical products are not trans-dermal, meaning, they do not penetrate all seven layers of the skin, nor do they enter the bloodstream.
CBD topicals like salves and lotions are perfect for local pain (meaning pain to that area). They are also ideal for those just beginning their CBD journey and who are concerned about cannabinoids present in their system.
Hemp-based CBD products that contain 0.03% THC are considered legal, but you must source your hemp from a reputable cultivator. The extraction method in which the CBD is extracted is also very important when it comes to potency and quality.
Topicals may help provide relief that is often associated with acne, burns, joint and muscle swelling, skin rashes, stiff muscles, bites, and stings, as well as minor injuries like bruises.
Using a CBD-rich topical daily by applying to the area that is sore may help your body heal itself. Those that have not tried CBD should speak to a doctor or medical professional before they begin their CBD journey.
If you are dealing with ongoing or severe pain, using multiple methods of consumption is best Incorporating a CBD tincture alongside your typical applications for a more well-rounded, or full-spectrum, approach to holistically treating your pain.
Feeling good and living a life in-balance should not cause you more unwanted health issues. Taking over the counter pain medication like Advil may cause serious liver damage with long-term use. Today, we have not seen any significant side effects of using CBD long-term.
However, we are also very much in the infant stage regarding the science of CBD.
CBD-infused topicals are packed with naturally beneficial ingredients like other cannabinoids, essential oils like lavender and aloe. Most CBD topicals moisturize, enhance your wellbeing, and are great for those who are in the fitness scene.
A high-quality topical product will be formulated by cultivating organic cannabis and using only the cleanest and safest extraction methods.
When it comes to all the CBD products on the market, CBD lotions, balms, and salves are by far the most indulgent way to incorporate CBD into your daily regime. Self-care has never been so therapeutic. Try a lotion, a bath bomb, or a coveted serum, and remember
When it comes to consuming the best CBD for sale, vaping has grown into one of the most widely seen methods used to consume the cannabis plant. That is why the CBD vape oil market has not only emerged in the last few years, it has grown tremendously. Every day, new vaporizer products are hitting the streets. With such a wide assortment of vaping products now available, it is essential that consumers know the basic facts, as well as the differences in CBD merchandise. Let’s address the most popular questions relating to CBD for sale. Folks can easily get ahold of the right vaping products to thoroughly enjoy their CBD.
Short for cannabidiol, CBD is a completely natural product that stems from the cannabis plant. While the market has plenty of CBD products that stem from marijuana, consumers prefer hemp-derived CBD. That way, a user doesn’t have to worry about experiencing any euphoric high, as the CBD contains less than 0.3 percent THC.
CBD oil, also known as hemp oil, is made from the MCT oil found in coconuts. The oil is usually used in a CBD tincture, but can easily be dropped into a person’s coffee. Just don’t try to inhale it, as every CBD tincture should be ingested. It is unfortunate that many of the companies selling CBD oil in dropper bottles do not have proper packaging that displays all the product’s ingredients and warning labels. You should realize that
CBD oil tinctures and CBD oil for smoking are not the same. Unlike a CBD tincture, the oil vape is not oil-based.
If you want to vape your CBD, there are two types of oils that work: CBD vape oil and CBD cartridges.
When first starting to vape CBD oil, it is always smart to begin slowly. Perhaps no more than a single drop or two a day would be best. When starting, you may want to increase the amount of CBD used by 5 mg at a time until you find your ideal dosage. The average dose is 20 mg of CBD a day. Some folks can take in 500 or even 1,000 mg a day. Over time, you can gradually increase the amount of CBD you ingest. Remember, everyone’s system is different, so there is no one perfect amount of CBD. What may be sensational for one person may be too much or too little for the next. It is all dependent on certain factors, like an individual’s tolerance and weight. It may take a bit of trial and error, but you will eventually figure out the best dosage of CBD oil for your system.
When it comes to an oil vape cartridge, the average one cartridge has 100 mg of CBD and provides roughly 1 or 2 mg of CBD with each hit. Just about every CBD device delivers a different amount per puff.
The entire CBD industry is relatively new and research into vape oil’s side effects are rather limited. Of the few studies conducted on CBD vaporizers, the most common side effect has been with new users feeling a bit of fatigue and dry mouth from large doses. A small dose can actually give a user the opposite reactions. Still, that’s quite minimal when compared to the unwanted side effects of prescription drugs.
Yes, the 2018 Farm Bill, aka the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, made hemp legal at the federal level, as well as a majority of states. In fact, is now considered an agricultural commodity, rather than a Schedule I illegal substance. There are still a few states, including Idaho and North Dakota that are still strict, as they do not differentiate between hemp and marijuana products. On the opposite spectrum, you may live in a progressive state, such as Colorado or California, where all forms of cannabis are decriminalized for leisurely use. As a direct result, CBD Vape oil is big business paying millions in tax dollars.
Fortunately, it is not possible to smoke too much CBD oil and experience an overdose. After all, CBD is low in toxicity. However, a CBD tincture is still extremely powerful. That’s why you shouldn’t take a lot of CBD at one time. It is not like it’s “one size fits all” when it comes to CBD. You may have to test the waters, but you will have no trouble figuring out the perfect dose for your particular taste.
Yes, laboratory reports on CBD vaporizers is essential, as people should know the THC levels in everything they ingest. Make sure everything is laboratory tested and stems from within the United States. Consumers should also confirm that there are zero contaminants and residual solvents that cause harm to the body. It is just as crucial that the CBD vape oil is still fresh, as it is best when used within the first 9 months after its production.
No, powerful CBD products now come in a wide variety of items, including CBD vape juice, oil tinctures, bath bombs, soaps, isolate, creams, and tasty edibles, such as protein bars, dried fruit, and colorful CBD gummies. It is best to try different products. By simply testing the waters, you will have no trouble figuring out which CBD products are ideal for your lifestyle.
Yes, CBD vape oil is completely safe, as long as you get it from a trustworthy retailer on the legal domestic market. It is up to the buyer to search the web, read customer feedback and professional reviews in order to find a reputable brand of CBD products. Make sure all of the CBD merchandise is third-party tested and that the results are made public, if not available upon request.
Men and women these days are fortunate to live in an open market with plenty of CBD vendors. While many are small potatoes that often embellish about CBD benefits, you can trust the reputable big brands, like Just CBD, for quality control. The last thing you want to do is spend money on synthetic chemicals that can be dangerous.
If your day is hectic and filled with chaos, take a break with JustCBD.
Read MoreThere are millions of people in America who smoke and tens of millions of other people who are experiencing smoking-associated diseases. It isn’t easy to stop smoking and the ones trapped in the throes of addiction often are searching for all of the help it’s possible to get. More and more, studies suggest that cannabidiol might have the ability to help folks stop cigarettes where prior attempts and techniques have failed. If you are looking to cease that nicotine habit, here is what you should know about CBD smoking cessation.
Addiction to nicotine is the main reason smokers have trouble quitting. The CDC has discovered that more Americans are nicotine-addicted than any additional drug. Furthermore, the studies suggest nicotine is as addictive as heroin or cocaine.
In a study performed in 2013, scientists tested the efficacy of cannabidiol on users who wanted to quit smoking. CBD research lasted one week and involved 24 subjects. Around 50% of the circle was administered CBD, and the other circle placebo; when the subjects felt the need to smoke a cigarette, they were asked to utilize the placebo inhalant or CBD administered to them first. The results, in the end, were encouraging: The twelve participants who obtained CBD decreased the quantity of cigarettes they smoked by approximately 40 percent, whereas the placebo circle witnessed no decrease in the quantity of cigarettes smoked.
Cannabidiol is currently becoming notorious for its possibility in treating a broad array of health diseases and conditions. In terms of cigarettes, most users are triggered by stressful circumstances. If that sounds familiar, CBD oil might be a healthier tool for managing such emotions, as there also have been promising and recent findings on using cannabidiol in the management of anxiety.
Addiction’s cycle may affect someone in various ways. Beyond environmental triggers, addiction is affected by both emotional, as well as cellular memory.
Your brain has an organic desire to create links. Anybody who has attempted to stop smoking knows that while drinking that first cup of coffee for the day, or maybe after eating, the need to smoke a cigarette abruptly amplifies as your brain connects the task to the act of smoking. Breaking the chain of reinforced behaviors and learned memories may be a lengthy process and includes one that adds another obstacle to stopping cigarettes.
Encouragingly, there’s proof that suggests CBD oil might have the ability to assist in loosening the grip of those habitual triggers.
A study performed in 2017 on rats discovered that cannabidiol disrupted the procedure of reinforcing and forming a preference for a certain environment based upon its ties with addictive substances. The research concluded with statements about the substantial “therapeutic possibility” of cannabidiol in breaking addiction’s cycle and relapse in which reliance upon drugs was proven to be contextual, tied with specific environments, situations, or memories. Therefore, in terms of stopping nicotine, cannabidiol might help decrease the addictive relations formed between cigarettes and specific circumstances where you would ritualistically smoke.
While first stopping cigarettes may take a lot of self-control and effort, continuing to avoid smoking may be equally as difficult. While there is more to be researched on cannabidiol’s impact specifically on nicotine addiction, continuous studies are generating promising results as far as the use of cannabidiol to stave off relapses. One study from 2018 on rats that were addicted to alcohol discovered that ‘Cannabidiol attenuated stress-induced and context-induced drug seeking without sedative effects, tolerance, or interference with usual motivated behavior.’ With those results in mind, cannabidiol might assist you in managing the need to get a cigarette in particularly stressful or triggering circumstances.
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that has the job of providing feelings of happiness and well-being. Nicotine triggers serotonin’s release, translating to the sense of contentment and calmness related to cigarette smoking. But, in between—and when stopping—cigarettes, withdrawal begins setting in and the reduced serotonin levels in the brain may result in a reduction in energy, depression, anxiety, and moodiness. That’s when you begin craving that next cigarette.
The addictive and cyclical nature of those serotonin troughs and peaks are among the reasons users of nicotine find it so challenging to stop.
Cannabidiol may activate the 5-HT1A receptor in the brain that increases serotonin’s availability in the same way as SSRI antidepressants. Therefore, CBD oil might help lower the irritability, anxiety, and stress related to attempts to stop smoking.
There are different delivery forms on-hand for the administration of CBD oil. Generally, they’ll all be efficient yet when it boils down to stopping cigarettes, some are better than others.
While using cannabidiol to stop smoking, the best method of delivery might be a vape pen. Some of what makes it so hard to stop smoking is the habitual nature of it. The habit of smoking—having the ability to step outdoors and bring a cigarette to your lips—is a huge part of what makes cigarettes pleasurable and challenging to stop. Vapes offer a method of easing out of nicotine addiction without breaking the physical ritual of smoking.
In times of abrupt stress, when somebody ordinarily would go have a smoke, they may vape instead. The exhale-inhale action is mostly the same; however, a nicotine-free vape pen may deliver relaxing, calming effects in minutes. The impact doesn’t last as long as with additional cannabidiol delivery forms, yet vaping it is perfect for sudden cravings and on-the-spot relief. As an extra bonus, vapes generate virtually no odor, so you will appreciate the act of smoking without that lingering, infamous cigarette odor afterwards.
Folks who want to quit all smoking-oriented behaviors might find tinctures or drops are the solution to abrupt cravings. While drops don’t take effect as rapidly as vaping, they still are fairly fast to offer relief. The cannabidiol gets absorbed into your bloodstream through the skin beneath your tongue, bypassing your digestive system and going to work usually within thirty minutes to one hour. Furthermore, the impact of drops may last for hours, which means you’ll likely only need a couple of doses in one day. Drops are available in portable, small bottles, which makes it simple to re-dose as necessary.
Other cannabidiol items such as edibles and capsules also can be integrated into your day-to-day regimen to reap the possible serotonin-boosting, anti-inflammatory cannabidiol benefits. Because those ingestion techniques must be metabolized through your digestive tract, they may take up to one hour to work, yet the effects will last most of the day, which means they’ll work in the background, helping your body and brain sustain homeostasis.
Before you use cannabidiol to stop cigarettes, it’s better to obtain advice from your doctor, as cannabidiol may interact with specific prescription medicine. You also might consider speaking with a cannabis physician who might know a little more about the use of CBD to manage addiction. In doing so, it is possible to determine the best dosage, as well as the safest method of using CBD oil.

Read MoreTwo of the hottest billion dollar businesses in recent years, CBD and cryptocurrency, will only be getting bigger in 2020. While consumers can certainly combine the two trends by buying CBD products with digital assets, it is important to understand the two fashionable crazes. After all, both CBD and cryptocurrency can substantially alter an individual’s life.
While the most popular products are CBD gummies and any CBD tincture, there is a wide variety of CBD merchandise for sale, ranging from edibles, sex lubes, erotic massage oils and pet treats to bath bombs, soaps, honey sticks and coconut oil. As long as the CBD products for sale are derived from hemp, not marijuana, they possess less than 0.3% THC. That means a user will not experience the euphoric high associated with mary jane. The powerful CBD goodies are also legal in all 50 States.
Let’s begin with the most popular items, CBD edibles, such as gummies, sugar free gummies, and dried fruit. Each type of CBD makes for a delicious treat, whether it’s for you or as a Christmas present. Delectable CBD snacks taste just like candy. The powerful edibles are a fun and convenient way to get your daily dose of CBD.
Eating CBD gummies couldn’t be any easier. In fact, they are no different than scrumptious gummy bears. You can chew them up or let the gummies sit on your tongue. That way, you can take your time and savor the flavor. Once the CBD snack is swallowed, it makes its way through the digestive system and into the veins. Folks can simply increase the amount of CBD that they consume over time.
On top of edible delights, a person can now take advantage of a CBD oil tincture. Dependable CBD tinctures are inexpensive and convenient products that are easily absorbed in users’ mouths. They are also perfect for getting just the right amount of CBD. The best tinctures on the market are created with natural oils, appetizing flavors, alcohol and water to extract important compounds found in the cannabis plant.
Tinctures of CBD are also simple to consume. You simply begin with one dropper full and put the liquid under the tongue. Leave it there for anywhere between 60 and 120 seconds, and swallow. Many people feel that the best time to take CBD tinctures is after a meal or a snack.
Once you taken CBD tincture oil, you can enjoy the positive effects in less than half an hour. Better yet, you can enjoy the feeling for roughly 5 hours at a time. When it comes to how much CBD to ingest, it all depends on the strength of the dose. Best of all, you can toss one into your pocket or purse with ease and break it out whenever you desire, like just before the concert starts or before going to bed at night.
In case you are concerned about how long CBD will last in your system, everything should be safely flushed out of your body in a very short time, like five to six days. Of course, that length of time can increase to about 10 days for a chronic user. Still, that number from hemp-derived CBD doesn’t compare to the THC in marijuana that tends to last in a person’s body for several weeks at a time.
Just make sure you only spend your time and money on hemp products that are free of genetically modified organisms, or GMOs. Also make sure there are no other unwanted chemicals, like the ones found in pesticides. You can even find tasty CBD edibles that are vegan-friendly. Keeping safety as a priority, you should also make sure that any CBD products you buy come from hemp grown in the United States.
CBD is growing in popularity among the start-up industry, such as booming cryptocurrency. What is cryptocurrency? Also known as digital gold, cryptocurrency is a digital currency that can be used to buy and sell goods and services. However, there is no physical coins, dollar bills or even pieces of gold. Rather, cryptocurrency is transferred from one owner to another with neither government regulation nor taxes. Like Bill Gates likes to say, we are living in the digital revolution.”
Why not rely on digital currency? Many of today’s biggest businesses, such as Sweaty Quid Freelance Marketplace, Facebook and Amazon are built on innovative digital platforms. After all, there are numerous benefits to cryptocurrency. Of course, most consumers out there find the most attractive advantage to cryptocurrency is the money one can save.
For starters, cryptocurrency never has to worry about inflation. At the same time, digital assets offer lower transaction fees, as opposed to high credit card fees, especially when dealing with different currencies. People, as well as businesses are used to dishing out anywhere from 2% to 5% fees for every transaction made with a credit card. In fact, they are paying hundreds just to accept payment from international customers. Banking on cryptocurrency, these fees are considerably lower. In some cases, the fees cease to exist altogether.
Another benefit is the removal of chargebacks. Never again does a retail store or service have to worry about a client paying for something and using it before stopping a charge for some fabricated reason. In other words, unfair chargebacks do not have to be an unfortunate cost of doing business in today’s world. A refund can always be issued if an individual or vendor decides it is appropriate. It is having the option that attracts so many entrepreneurs.
Fluctuating currencies from one country to another is never an issue, attracting customers from around the globe. Then there is the speed of digital currencies. No longer do folks have to wait days at a time to receive funds through a bank, even if it is overseas. Rather, cryptocurrencies take an average of one day to be transferred from one owner to another. A fabulous comparison is thinking of a bank as the slow Postal Service, while viewing digital dollars as email.
Shoppers can feel more secure when shopping, as they never have to store their credit card numbers onto a website. Regardless of a company’s massive size, it can still be cyberattacked. Credit card numbers on file have already been stolen by Home Depot and Target. Ouch!
With cryptocurrency, consumers depend on temporary encrypted codes for processing, eliminating all unauthorized purchases in the future. If a customer knows his or her financial information is secure, he or she will feel completely safe conducting business with you and your organization.
Best of all, cryptocurrency users stick together. If one store accepts digital currency, but another doesn’t, who do you think will get a cryptocurrency user’s business? Those who put their faith in digital dollars tend to be excited about using the currency. As a direct result, they scratch one another’s backs.
The benefits of cryptocurrency in today’s business world are seemingly endless, breaking down geographic and political barriers, while saving time and money for every party. But it is tough to get your foot in the door of any new business.
Whether its for your spouse’s Christmas gift or a New Year’s treat to yourself, CBD gummies, CBD Vape Pens and E-Liquid, CBD oil tinctures, CBD Cosmetics and Body Care Products, and other CBD merchandise is always a smart choice. The same can be said for cryptocurrency. So why not be chic and load up on both?
Read MoreThese days, popular cannabidiol (CBD) products are trending all over the internet, as well as retail vendors, including convenience stores and gas stations. You may find the best CBD gummies and other edibles at the mall, including CBD coffee protein bars. Perhaps your coworker has a powerful CBD tincture in her purse, and the top CBD for dogs and cats is on display when you visit the veterinarian’s office. There is also a wide variety of CBD oils, lotions, and sprays for sale. But wait a second. Is CBD even legal? Discover all the facts about CBD and the laws in the United States.
To begin, it is important to understand the difference between THC and CBD when it comes to the law of our land. If you are familiar with cannabis plants, you already know that the plant possesses THC, as well as CBD, among its 400+ ingredients. They both have positive effects on a person’s mind and body, and there are some pretty big differences between THC and CBD. For starters, only THC gives individuals psychoactive feelings.
Short for tetrahydrocannabinol, THC found in Mary Jane affects a user’s CB1 receptors. This is what gives the body a euphoric feeling. Recreational users enjoy the high from weed, thanks to the THC in oils, doobies and vape pens. Once consumed, it goes to the brain and affects a user’s central nervous system, as well as other important parts of the brain, including emotional states, energy levels, and other cerebral effects.
Even if it comes from the same plant and offers many of the same wonderful benefits as THC, CBD will not get an individual high. In fact, CBD often reduces THC’s influences on the body. THC has been known to cause anxiety and paranoia. It’s possible that a user won’t be able to operate machinery. Additionally, THC can irritate an upset stomach.
Thankfully, CBD comes with zero side-effects that cause a person harm, regardless of how much is consumed. If you do decide to take a THC product, mixing it with a little CBD is often a smart move, both mentally and physically speaking.
In order to sell CBD in a retail store, the vendor cannot make a single health claim about the merchandise. The Food and Drug Administration has only approved a single CBD product to treat epilepsy. In fact, the FDA has already started to crack down on companies making medical claims about their CBD.
While the voters and politicians work out what THC and CBD will be sold at the corner store, purchasing the best CBD products often requires a little work. Of course, a person should always speak with a medical professional regarding the legal use of CBD. Fortunately, you can always perform a little homework on your own by reading trustworthy websites and blogs. It is also wise to read the label on every piece of merchandise. You can also check out the makers’ websites and customer reviews all over the web.
Important questions that should be answered include:
If none of this vital information is shared, there is a reason for it. You must avoid these products. They could easily be illegal, as well as unsafe.
When doing homework on what CBD you should legally purchase, always confirm that the products stem from domestically grown hemp. Believe me, you want our nation’s strict production rules and regulations looking out for you. Who knows what is being mixed in CBD gummies produced in Asia? It is just as important to make sure that every CBD delight you buy is laboratory tested by a nationally regulated organization. Otherwise, you could be paying for too little CBD or an overabundance of THC. Your general safety could come into question.
It is now legal across the country, but can you carry CBD onto an airplane? Yes, you can. In May of 2019, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) changed its policy on CBD. A person can now carry any CBD products that meet the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, also known as the 2018 Farm Bill, requirement of no more than 0.3% THC. The bill was signed into law in December 2018, making hemp legal at the federal level. Hemp is no longer considered a Schedule I illegal controlled substances. Rather, it is classified as an agricultural commodity.
The reclassification of the plant opens the doors for hemp to be lawfully cultivated for commercial use. Rather than the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), its rules are now administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
In May of 2019, hemp reached another milestone. The United States Department of Agriculture put out a public statement openly allowing hemp to be carried over state lines, as long is it meet’s the particular states’ regulations.
In the near future, American consumers will likely see CBD-infused products from big names, like Peaches and Screams (CBD Sex Lube), Coca-Cola and Ben & Jerry’s in CVS and Walgreens. Meanwhile, there are literally thousands of CBD-infused goods available on the internet.
Just like it is with medical marijuana, states have their own laws about CBD. Specific conditions that come into play include a state’s definition of how much THC is found in the CBD? For instance, is there more than 0.3% THC? Does it adhere to the shared state and federal guidelines? Did the hemp come from a licensed domestic grower? Keep in mind that what can be made, sold, and carried around in California isn’t the same in Alabama. There is no one format in place to use as a guideline, as CBD being introduced into the American legal system is a relatively new occurrence. Many states are in still developing regulations with voters who will undoubtedly change their laws in 2020.
Even if travelling with the right type of CBD in a progressive state, you should still exercise caution. A majority of states don’t have testing guidelines, or your CBD product could be mislabeled. The last thing you want to do is get detained the next time you go to the airport.
Many consumers want to know if CBD will show up on a drug test. If so, the legal use of CBD could cost them their jobs. CBD by itself doesn’t appear on drug tests. However, many CBD products out there contain THC. Even if a person buys hemp-derived CBD merchandise, it may be mislabeled, as the industry isn’t completely regulated by Uncle Sam. That’s why it is essential that you only buy reliable CBD goods from a reputable company that sells laboratory tested and properly labeled products.
Hang in there. It is only a matter of time before every state in the union catches up with Colorado, California, and Washington when it comes to cannabis on the open market. Perhaps you live in a state, like Florida, where CBD is legal under certain conditions. Many regulations will come to a vote in the next year. The potential power of CBD and the lawbooks is encouraging. As Bob Dylan preaches, “The times they are a-changin’.”
Read MoreWith a brand new year just around the corner, you want to look and feel your best. That means getting ready for 2020 with as much style as you can pack into your closet. Everything from your hat and sunglasses to your socks and shoes should represent your personal style. Are you ready to update your wardrobe? Believe me, doing so is easier said than done. Fortunately, I’ve created a little cheat sheet for you.
To begin, everyone is talking about chic CBD these days. At the same time, looking and feeling fit is as fashionable as it gets. That’s why combining the two multibillion dollar industries, CBD and fashion, is as stylish as one can imagine. Not only are the top CBD gummies and any CBD tincture on the market selling like hotcakes, but CBD bath bombs, soaps, and lotions for sale will be a gamechanger in 2020.
The domestic sales of CBD products reached a whopping $1.8 billion in 2018. That number is expected to surpass $20 billion in the next 5 years, according to BDS Analytics and Arcview Market Research.
When it comes to CBD and fashion, the industry is now flooded with CBD activewear. Popular CBD-infused garments now include expensive jumpsuits seen regularly in New York City, throughout Hollywood, and on Miami Beach. Maybe it is modern attire by folks taking tennis lessons at the club, or perhaps they’re practicing Pilates. Combining fitness and luxurious fashion, these fabrics are designed to manage sore muscles.
Growing in popularity, these trendy garments are created with miniscule drops of hemp-derived CBD that contains no THC whatsoever. The CBD can be placed in workout attire to line up with specific muscle groups, such as arms, legs, and calves. With the friction caused by an exercise routine, the fabric releases CBD. It is then quickly and safely absorbed into the skin, where it interacts with an individual’s endocannabinoid system.
Unfortunately, CBD clothing doesn’t have much of a reputation online when it comes to men’s fashion, as well as women’s fashion. Consumers agree that you are better off buying more powerful products, like CBD oil and edibles from a reputable company based in the United States.
The next big trend in 2020 is women wearing enormous Victorian sleeves, not unlike those seen in the 18th Century. The giant sleeves give the illusion of a thinner waist. It also adds plenty of femininity to any outfit. You can go for the goth look with black or gray sleeves, if not shoot for vivid colors to bring flare to minimalist outfits. Whether you flaunt a structured design or a whimsical sheer one, your puffy sleeves can be dashing.
The reinvented white top couldn’t be any hotter. While most folks possess white T-shirts in the drawers, make room for ones that have been cropped with plenty of decorations added on. Runway models have recently been seen wearing the colorless Ts that were cropped just below the chest with cut-up sleeves. Some designers have attached feathers to the tops, while others have sewn in decorative wires. The shirts go wonderfully with a pair of blues jeans or khakis. They also look marvelous under leather jackets and trench coats. White tops work on anybody just about anywhere, regardless of the time of year.
It seems that denim will never go out of style, at least not in the next year. In fact, models have been piling up as much blue denim as possible. Denim hats, denim jackets, and denim skirts are more than just budget-friendly and durable. They are as posh as you can imagine, even if they look like they came from a thrift store. Some have holes, while other jeans possess bleach stains, patchwork, ruffles, and tears. Indigo blue and galaxy blue work well with straight-legged high waisted jeans under pleated shirts, tailored blazers, and silk blouses.
Those of us who remember watching Nirvana and Pearl Jam Unplugged will certainly appreciate the Nineties Style that’s becoming trendy again. Without drifting from the denim look, you can stick to the grunge feel. All you have to do is add some plaid flannel. Do you have an old band T-shirt, like The Clash or The Ramones, to go under a button-down and beat-up leather jacket? Those living in cold weather get to rely on layering and comfort. Don’t forget the Converse Chuck Taylor high tops or Doc Martens on your feet. At least Nineties-Style accessories, such as barrettes, scrunchies, and basic black tattoo stretch chockers won’t be making their way back into the limelight anytime soon.
If you grew up when Led Zeppelin was touring, rather than Kurt Cobain, you won’t mind the return of the Seventies style in today’s culture. Runways and nightclubs will be filled with corduroy, bell bottoms, and vests. You’ll see plenty of earth tones, including brown, tan, and orange. Curly hair will get as big as possible. The guys will sport giant collars on their unbuttoned tops, along with plenty of facial hair. Ladies will flaunt high-waisted three-piece suits with flared slacks and extravagant jackets to channel free-spirited women’s lib. Both will show off broad shoulders, boxy shapes, and funky platform heels and psychedelic prints. The mere sight of these outfits will stir up images of John Travolta and the sounds of the Bee Gees in your head.
If you prefer the sounds of The Beach Boys, you won’t mind seeing Bermuda shorts on women all year. Nicknamed “mom shorts,” the knee-length slacks have been going in and out of fashion since the Forties. That is why you will be seen with every type of top imaginable this spring, from raggedy cotton shirts and modest Ts to pink blazer suits. Businesswomen will flaunt shiny satin and leather Bermuda shorts at the office, along with tie-dyes and suede button-down at the nightclubs.
Rather than looking nostalgic in 2020, dashing women will be appearing ultramodern in see-through shirts, dresses, coats and blazers. Figures will be shown off under the wild mesh designs with a risqué feel. Sometimes large zoot suits will be worn over knitted tops and sexy undergarments. Depending on the outfit, a woman will expose her neck, hips, and/or stomach. While see-through outfits will be seen in a wide variety of colors, shapes, and designs, the black lingerie-look will be the most prevalent next year.
Sticking to a high-tech appearance, neon has been quite popular this winter and will continue into the spring. Women’s sunglasses, dresses, and shoes all light up in shades of green, orange, and yellow for an electric feel. Draped in sharp tuxedos with oversized shoulders, models look like they came from a techno dancefloor in the latest Steven Spielberg sci-fi flick. There are strapless bubble dresses that glow, along with neon jackets that can be seen in outer space.
Other trends for ladies to look for include tiny vests, giant granny sunglasses, and wearing a towel as a skirt. Purses will be shaped like eggs and others will hang around a woman’s waist on a petite belt bag.
Are you ready to kick off the New Year with a stylish bang? Maybe you have already started. When it comes to CBD and fashion, there is plenty to look forward to in 2020. The future is so bright, it literally lights up the night.

Stress is a normal part of our everyday lives. It comes in a wide variety of forms, from driving to work in rush hour traffic to dealing with annoying customers and family squabbles. Pressure builds up, causing men and women to suffer from both emotional and physical symptoms.
Tension also leads to unwanted results in the body. Folks become irritable and suffer from insomnia. Sleepless nights quickly lead to trouble with memory and concentration. As a direct result, anger and hostility are just around the corner. Meanwhile, stress causes muscles to become tense. Aches and pains are just around the corner, whether they are in your neck or your back. Stomachs get upset, mouths grow dry, and jaws clench up. These unwanted symptoms of pressure are enough to stress a person out, making for a vicious cycle.
While eliminating all stressors from our daily lives is simply not an option, we can learn how to cope with all the tension. Before you know it, daily annoyances will be minimized, as one nuisance after another simply rolls off your shoulders. You will boast a joyful and contagious smile. The smartest solutions for managing stress are CBD for sale and staying fit. So why not take advantage of both?
When it comes to putting your mind and body at ease, an individual’s most intelligent option is the top CBD products on the market, such as CBD tinctures and edibles. Not only is cannabidiol safe and natural, it is now 100% legal in all 50 States. At the same time, a user of hemp derived CBD goods never has to worry about the unwanted euphoric “high” associated with marijuana’s THC. The best CBD merchandise helps folks relax their minds and bodies. The CBD actually binds to serotonin receptors in a user’s brain to give a soothing effect. You just need a reliable vendor that offers CBD for stress that is laboratory tested and made in the United States. When you need to chill out, CBD treats can be a lifesaver.
Many users think tinctures surpass every other delivery device for hemp-derived CBD. Not only are they created with natural oils, oil tinctures of CBD are small and convenient, making them ideal for travel. You just drop a little liquid under your tongue and the wonderful impacts can be felt in a minute or two, and last up to 6 hours at a time. Feelings of dread, nervousness, and discomfort float away. That means you can enjoy better sleep no matter what time you go to bed. Rather than being exhausted, you can look comfortable and feel energetic. With the help of high-quality CBD oil tinctures, feelings of distress are fought off and life becomes more enjoyable.
While they may not be as fast acting as tinctures, cannabis gummies are the most popular form of CBD. Perhaps the coolest part about edibles is their seemingly endless variety of sizes, colors, and flavors. Many folks like to stick to one favorite, such as Apple Rings or Rainbow Ribbons. Others prefer to take a different flavor for every day of the week. It may take a bit of trial and error to decide your favorite flavor and dosage Whatever you decide, remember to start out slowly and gradually increase your dosage over time. There are even sugar free CBD gummies, CBD protein bars, and CBD dried fruit to sink your teeth into. Whether you want to start out small with a fun CBD gummies 250 mg jar or go all out with a 3000 mg party pack, you can depend on CBD to unwind and enjoy a few laughs.
While CBD product reviews usually focus on tinctures and edibles, you can always purchase other useful merchandise, including CBD isolate, CBD bath bombs & soaps, CBD honey sticks & coconut oil to help you relax.
Besides CBD merchandise, staying fit may be the most efficient method to unwind. As we all know, exercise is just as vital to mental fitness as it is to physical strength. Working out greatly reduces stress. It also helps the body sleep at night, which has amazing benefits for energy levels, concentration skills, and cognitive function throughout the day. Whether it is going jogging in the morning or playing racquetball in a league at night, physical activity produces endorphins. These important chemicals in the human brain are known for easing stress and anxiety.
Not only does staying in shape fight off nervousness, exercising can actually improve your overall state of mind. Think about it, wouldn’t you feel better after getting better sleep every night? How much better will you feel after seeing a thinner and more muscular frame every time you look in the mirror? Even if you work out for 5 minutes at a time, four days a week, it’s enough to decrease a great deal of mental and physical pressure.
Science has proven that aerobic exercise helps the nervous system. Working out actually reduces adrenaline, cortisol, and other hormones associated with stress. Exercise increases the making of “feel good” endorphins in the brain, like the ones that cause a “runner’s high.”
As individuals practice exercise routines, their minds are free to think creatively. Maybe you’ll design a new advertising campaign or perhaps you’ll come up with the perfect anniversary gift for your spouse. You will begin to lose that unwanted beer belly. After starting an exercise routine, people look superb and feel even better. Self-confidence tends to soar in no time. With a new sense of pride, it becomes easier to succeed, whether it be in sports, the office, or even the bedroom.
Are you familiar with the term “muscular meditation?” It occurs when you exercise a big muscle group in unison, like when you go running or swimming. A mere 15 minutes of muscular meditation can be fabulous for fighting off stress, along with calories. The same can be said for maintaining a stable blood flow, a.k.a. autoregulation.
An individual doesn’t have to hit the gym to reduce his or her stress. Mental exercises are superb for complete relaxation. While you can always visit a professional to talk out your frustration, a friend can always serve as an excellent listener. You may not need more than a diary to unload your most personal feelings. You can also meditate to find a peaceful state of mind and gain a positive perspective on just about any situation. Both heart pressure and blood pressure can be lowered, as well as your breathing rate. In other words, meditation safely puts the mind and body at ease.
Why not combine the best CBD product for anxiety with exercise to enjoy a fantastic frame of mind possible? There are plenty of professional athletes, like the New England Patriots’ Ron Gronkowski and pitcher David Wells of the New York Yankees, who are publicly outspoken about the amazing benefits of CBD for athletes. Plenty of bikers, boxers, and martial arts competitors feel the same way about using CBD on a daily basis to stay calm and cool.
Speak to your doctor about adding powerful CBD delights to your workout routine. As long as your CBD goodies come from a reliable vendor, you will appreciate the benefits on your mind and body.
Read MoreDo you find yourself being short tempered throughout the month of December? There is nothing abnormal about it. Often times, men and women find themselves under great strain during the holidays. Maybe they are concerned over their jobs, getting their loved ones the right gifts, or merely putting up with their in-laws over the holiday. That doesn’t even include the crowded shopping malls and packed parking lots. There is no question that Christmas time can be overwhelmingly stressful. At least there are 4 simple strategies, from using a pure CBD tincture to watching what you drink, that can provide phenomenal assistance in reducing holiday stress.
While colorful CBD gummies are always fun, the most effective trick to keeping your cool during the holidays may be to rely on an amazing CBD oil tincture for sale. After all, cannabidiol is a natural compound that has gained popularity for helping people improve their moods by stimulating the serotonin in their brain cells. With the best CBD tincture to combat stress, a user can experience a peace of mind in no time. That means it will be easy to stay calm and cool with the rowdy kids and annoying house guests during Christmas dinner won’t be a problem this year.
We all know somebody who is throwing a Christmas party this year. It makes no difference if you are talking to your employer, neighbor, or even your best buddy from childhood, always be truthful. If you truly don’t want to go to your office’s holiday dinner or neighbor’s Christmas Eve party, politely pass on the invitation. A person will get over a denied invitation. So it’s really not worth getting caught in a lie or showing up to a fiesta in a grumpy mood. In other words, say what you mean and mean what you say when it comes to Christmas get-togethers.
Whenever you find yourself under physical or mental pressure, it is crucial that you pay attention to your breathing. If it is shallow, you should try to fix it right away. A smart trick is to take your time inhaling and exhaling deeply and slowly. Try to feel both actions in every part of your body, from your tippy toes to the end of your nose and the top of your head. Not only is this tension fighting technique nice and easy, it can be performed just about anywhere and in any situation. Whether you are in line at a department store or stuck in holiday traffic on the highway, deep belly breathing can help you stay calm and cool in just about any aggravating situation.
With so many hours spent at work, boring holiday parties and getting ahold of unappreciated presents, you must dedicate some time to yourself. Maybe plan a few hours that you can treat yourself to a nice spa or a massage. Of course, you can always spend your “me time” resting in your bed, if not your favorite chair. Dim the lights and play The Dark Side of the Moon, or whatever music chills you out. Turn off your phone and unplug from cyberspace for a little while. Complete relaxation is just around the corner.
Read MoreI woke up in a marvelous mood this morning. But when I tried entering the highway to get to work, I got stuck in a traffic jam. Then I got stressed out when some guy honked at me for trying to merge into the left lane. I got to work no more than 10 minutes late, but I still got a dirty look from my boss. To make matters worse, the office lost the internet for the entire morning. It’s not even lunchtime, and I feel completely overwhelmed. Thankfully, I am familiar with 5 highly effective tricks, like a pure CBD tincture and avoiding social media, to ease myself of physical and mental pressure.
Perhaps the best way to stay calm and cool in tense moments is to take advantage of a high potency CBD tincture for sale. Just like CBD gummies, the powerful tinctures are wonderful at helping people manage stress. At the same time, a user never has to worry about a euphoric “high” from hemp derived CBD, unlike the THC in marijuana. The top CBD oil tinctures on the market are also fast acting and last for several hours at a time.
While not much out there compares with the effectiveness of powerful CBD products, you can try progressive muscle relaxation to put your system at ease. For example, stretch out the muscles in your toes for 5 or 10 seconds at a time. Then relax them and breathe easy for 30 seconds. You can repeat the exercise three times before working your way through other muscle groups. Yoga is fantastic method of loosening up your muscles, as well as your mind.
Another nifty tip to fight off pressure in a hectic situation is to be imaginative. Just think, how would William Shakespeare or John Lennon handle the same circumstances. While you may not want to write a sonnet or stage a weeklong bed-in, there are always artistic outlets to help keep your mind focused and get things off your chest. Have you ever tried painting the sky or knitting a sweater for your spouse? Find a way to develop something positive from the circumstances.
Whether you are at work or home, acting sluggish can have negative circumstances. A prime example is taking a bath. In theory, the warm water is supposed to be soothing, along with some candlelight and classical music in the background. But in reality, the water gets cold too quickly. You may be hanging out with germs that lead to staph infections. Cell phones often fall underwater, and filth-muck builds up on the tile. Trying to take a bath can become more of a strain than a relief.

Finally, it is wise to avoid social media and news outlets, especially during controversial events. Unfortunate occurrences, like a friend’s recent divorce or the death of a loved one can easily bring down one’s spirits. You may also get reminded of broken relationships and other lousy stuff that happened to you in the past. There is no reason to look at a high school bully’s family photo or read his political rants. As long as you remain positive, relaxation can be a walk in the park.
Read MoreIn this CBD review, I am going to be reviewing the entire line of CBD products from a Californian CBD company called UrthLeaf. I am going to kick-off this reviewing by talking a little bit about the company, their branding and product quality. This review is going to be completely honest and impartial.
Firstly, I would like to point out that I have received the products from UrthLeaf within one week: this is how long it took for the parcel to arrive from California (USA) to London (UK). In the grand scheme of things, this is almost twice as fast as it has taken for similar packages to reach me from California. It goes to show that, from the legal point-of-view, there aren’t any issues with UrthLeaf CBD products at the border control, which is great news for all the international clients.
The entire package has arrived in a very hipster and professional UrthLeaf branded paper bag but due to the wet weather in London, the bag got wet inside my back pack and it was no longer worthy of being featured in this CBD review. My first impression of UrthLeaf CBD products was the association with nature, earth and soil. This is due to the company’s very professional logo that appears to be focussed on green and healthy living and suggests that their products are natural.
All UrthLeaf CBD products come in very sturdy and quality paper packaging. UrthLeaf CBD bath bomb packaging is the only product that breaks the mould as it comes in a brown box that is more common in the beauty industry. For example, when I walk into some luxury apothecary shops in Brick Lane or Cananry Wharf, bath bombs and soap appear in similar minimalistic and hipster chic packaging. Having reviewed many CBD products in the past, what made UrthLeaf’s packaging stand out is the fact that it is very detailed and contains a lot of useful information about each product. In my opinion, this is very helpful from the user’s point-of-view.
I have been trying out UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Oil Tincture in three strengths over the course of one week in different social settings. Having tasted many CBD oil tinctures before, UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Oil Tincture is unflavoured and does not taste like cannabis or hemp. It is very neutral but rich and tastes like delicious Italian oil you would have on your salad at a fancy city restaurant. Whilst I do not mind the taste of Cannabis or Hemp, I do realise that many CBD oil users may have negative connotation associated with Cannabis and Hemp products as CBD is essentially a Cannabis derivative less the THC. Given that UrthLeaf CBD hemp oil tincture has a neutral taste, it is ideal for anyone who would like to benefit from CBD oil without the taste of hemp or cannabis. I consumed UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Oil Tincture orally before I went to bed by putting a few drops under my tongue. Within half an hour, I was feeling all mellowed out, relaxed and focused. There is a misnomer that CBD makes you high. On the contrary, it helps to stabilise your brain and focus. I also experimented with the UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Oil Tincture in 900mg by adding it to my pre-workout protein shake consisting of blueberries, milk, protein powder and a banana. I had the protein shake two hour’s before going to the gym and I must admit that the CBD Oil really helped with the focus aspect at the gym and really improved my endurance, especially when it came to the cardio and weights training. The neutral taste of UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Oil Tincture makes it perfect for mixing it with various foods and drinks. My personal approach is to consume weaker CBD oil orally and add higher strength CBD oil to foods and drinks. On the company’s website, UrthLeaf state that they only use non-genetically modified industrial hemp from a select few CBD farms. I think that this claim really goes hand-in-glove with their earthy and nature-inspired branding.
I never quite understood the concept of consuming CBD Gel Capsules until I spilled CBD oil all over my iphone whilst I was taking some CBD oil whilst on the move. UrthLeaf CBD Gel Capsules 900mg offer the convenience of consuming CBD oil whilst on the move. Likewise, I came to realise that UrthLeaf CBD Gel Capsules 900mg may also help with reputational risk management. Uninformed people may be skeptical about one consuming CBD oil from a pipette and UrthLeaf CBD Gel Capsules 900mg definitely offer more discretion for consuming CBD in public places or even at the workplace. I decided to have a few CBD Gel Capsules whilst I was on a long Underground journey in London. Naturally, I was a bit tensed and stressed out after a long day at the office and the hustle and bustle in the city. I downed 2 CBD capsules with some tasty fizzy lemonade bubble tea and after about 30 minutes, the effects of CBD began to gradually kick in. I was feeling more relaxed, composed and chilled out to the point where I was making light talk with fellow commuters. I really like the fact that UrthLeaf CBD Gel Capsules come in 900mg, a fairly high strength. It is fairly easy to adjust CBD intake with CBD oil by taking a few drops more or less. However, with CBD Gel Tablets, you would want to receive the optimum effect without having to swallow ten CBD capsules. The CBD Capsule strength is definitely on point. On UrthLeaf’s website and on the label, it is stated that their CBD Capsules contain:
Fractionated Coconut Oil (MCT Medium Chain Triglycerides)
Gelatin (Gelatin Capsules)
Non GMO Sunflower Lecithin
Full Spectrum Hemp Oil
Here is what UrthLeaf claims about their CBD Hemp Healing Salve:
UrthLeaf’s top selling, topical salve is crafted by extracting full spectrum, CBD-rich, hemp oil and infusing it with organic lavender flower oil, organic coconut oil, vitamin E, and organic beeswax. These simple ingredients create a powerful salve that is packed with anti-inflammatory properties to help treat all of your aches, pains, and sore muscles. We also like to use our salve on cuts, wounds, dry skin, and eczema! For faster, targeted relief, simply massage a small amount into affected area.
Overall, this sums up the UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Healing Salve extremely well. Over a year ago, I have developed a skin condition known as uticaria. I had done many blood tests and saw my GP on multiple occasions, but the exact cause of my allergy was unknown. I was told that it could be anything from stress to my body’s intolerance to humid British weather. I was therefore left to take Loratadine anti-allergy tablets. If I failed to take the tablets every morning, my body parts would all of a sudden begin to turn red and I would develop a rash. It is very annoying to be living with such a condition. I immediately tried UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Healing Salve on affected skin areas and the rash went away in about 5 minutes. However, what I have noticed is that by using UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Healing Salve, CBD Hemp Oil and the CBD Bath Bomb, my condition has become to recede. The total number of allergey occurences has declined and even if I do not take my anti-allergy tablets, I can easily get by for a day or two. This is very encouraging and definitely goes to show that CBD has a lot of potential in helping to treat and alleviate skin conditions and allergies.
I was not planning of using UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Healing Salve for anything other than helping to treat my allergy and dry skin, but after one month of being away from the gym, I decided to go back to my normal bench-press weight only to sustain a back injury. Basically, I could not lift up the bar back up, it landed on my belly and I tried to push it off me using my back. I did not realise that at the time, but I had sprained my lower back and I was in a lot of pain after the workout. I applied copious amounts of UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Healing Salve two times before going to bed and once in the morning. The results were incredible, my back pain began to subside and after 2 days it had gone away completely. This is nothing short of a miracle because such back pains take at least 2 weeks to heal. I would therefore heavily recommend UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Healing Salve for anyone suffering from gym injuries and allergies or skin conditions. The smell of UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Healing Salve is extremely pleasant and sophisticated and has no tell-tell signs that you are using a hemp or CBD product. I was very surprised that the smell of this UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Healing Salve is very gentle, rustic and reminds me of a trip to a beautiful garden from one of the Victorian Novels! Usually, similar salves have a very pungent and not entirely pleasant smell. UrthLeaf CBD Hemp Healing Salve also works great as body cream and is a great replacement for perfume.
I am generally more of a shower person and due to my busy routine, I do not have the time for taking a full-blown bath with soap bubbles and nostalgic yellow rubber ducks. I finally caved into taking a warm bath on the weekend with some tasty bubble tea. I chucked the Eucalyptus Bath Bomb as I was filling up the bath. It began to dissolve very gradually and gave a very soothing and fresh aroma to the entire bathroom. When I got into the bath, I have noticed to feel very relaxed, calm and my skin became extremely soft and supple. After about one hour, I felt very rejuvenated and extremely relaxed. The Eucalyptus CBD Bath Bomb combines the best of both worlds by bringing CBD into cosmetics and body care products. I could definitely feel the therapeutic effects of CBD on my skin and my physical and mental state. My skin felt younger and my body just felt relaxed. This CBD bath bomb helped me to get a very good night’s sleep and helped to reinvigorate my entire body. I definitely felt very positive results the entire week.
I do enjoy a good vape and have tried all types of vape e-liquids from the UK, Malaysia and USA. I like to vape all my e-juices in 3mg nicotine. I find that nicotine makes me feel very agitated and pepped up. I have only vape CBD oil once or twice before. I remember that I had some issues with vaping CBD eliquid on my Uwell and Vopoo vape tanks as they were not very friendly to CBD eliquid. One thing that I really like about the UrthLeaf CBD Vape Pen is that it comes with a battery and a pre-filled CBD cartridge meaning that I do not have to waste any time in shopping for a vape tank and suitable cartridges. There is also no issue to getting the wattage right to get a good vape out of CBD eliquid. Starting off with the appearances, UrthLeaf CBD Vape Pen is very sleek and holds a very luxury appearance. The vape pen’s battery comes in a sleek steel finish and the cartridge is made from glass and not plastic, which really helps to keep all the nasties out and keeps the CBD eliquid pure and unadulterated. The vape is extremely smooth. In the past, I had instances of CBD oil tasting burnt or “not right”. This is something that kept me away from vaping CBD. UrthLeaf definitely do all the heavy lifting my providing a CBD vape pen that is actually configured to vape CBD. You do not have to meddle with any complex settings or controls. All you have to do is take a draw and enjoy. The vape is very smooth and natural. I recommend this CBD vape pen for anyone looking for instant relaxation. CBD oil and capsules take a bit longer to come into effect through ingestion. On the contrary, vaping CBD has a near-immediate effect.
During this CBD review, I have discovered that the quality of the CBD products and the claims by UrthLeaf are backed up by their superior quality. At large, UrthLeaf is definitely one of the very best organic CBD brands that I have tasted. The organic theme runs across through the branding and all the way to the quality of UrthLeaf’s CBD products. I found UrthLeaf’s CBD products to be very effective with relieving stress, anxiety, muscular pain, back pain, skins conditions and allergies. However, you do not have to have a condition to take CBD. I find CBD to be a very good way to chillax with some chillout music in the background. I would like to especially recommend UrthLeaf to those people who are looking for a more subtle hemp and CBD brand that does not exactly taste like hemp or shout cannabis! In terms of the prices, UrthLeaf CBD offers a great value for money considering that you are getting an organic product that is handcrafted from highest quality industrial hemp from a select few hemp farms!

I would like to thank the team at Green Stem CBD for sending me across their full product line for the purpose of this review.
Before I go into reviewing the Green Stem CBD products, I would like to pause for a moment and review the company’s website. I must admit that I am very impressed with the speed and the artisan design of the company’s website. The website strikes me as being very consertive English and brings to mind Victorian novels and writers such as Oscar Wilde and Emily and Charlotte Bronte Sisters. Unlike other CBD sites that go very heavy on the CBD/Hemp element that tends to scare some website users away due to misinformation about CBD products and their association with cannabis, Green Stem CBD takes a very subtle approach towards CBD products by emphasising the botanical elements in their branding.
On their website, Green Stem CBD claims to provide a product for improving the quality of life and wellbeing. The entire Green Stem CBD product range features CBD Oil Oral Drops to Vaping Liquids, CBD Bath Bombs, CBD Gummies, CBD Tonic Water, CBD Hand Cream and CBD Lip Balms. The company states that all of their products contain CBD from either 99% pure CBD isolate or broad spectrum Hemp Oil distillate. In tune with their branding and botnaical motifs, Green Stem CBD products are made in the UK in accordance with stringent guidelines to guarantee the highest quality and purity in its products as one would expect from this company’s branding.
In this review, I am going to be reviewing Green Stem CBD Skincare Products including CBD Hand Cream with Essential Oils, Sandalwood, Lavender and Jasmine, Green Stem CBD Lip Balm Natural, Green Stem CBD Lip Balm Eucalyptus and Green Stem CBD Bath Bomb, Green Stem CBD Edibles and Drinks including Green Stem CBD Gummies and Green Stem CBD Tonic Water, Green Stem CBD Oil including Green Stem Black Cherry CBD Oil Oral Drops and Green Stem Peppermint CBD Oil Oral Drops.
Green Stem CBD products elicit quality that is subtle and quintessentially English: green and leafy countryside came to my mind when I received the products. The company’s branding is very similar to the likes of L’Occitane, Joe Malone and other popular and upmarket beauty brands. The only problem with the packaging was that the labels had come off a fair but on the CBD oil tube boxes, possibly because the sticker does not bind too well with the cardboard tube packaging. Such problems are common and I certainly came across them in the eliquid market.
CBD Hand Cream with Essential Oils, Sandalwood, Lavender and Jasmine comes in a very elegant and artisan meta tube packaging which is very easy to use and quite convenient to carry about in a handbag or a sports bag. The cream has a very sophisticated and luxurious smell of sandalwood, lavender and jasmine that is very subtle and not at all overpowering. I actually found this handcream a great alternative to perfume. It is perfect for all occasions and genders. Having used this CBD hand cream about five times, I noticed that my skin became much softer and moisturised. This CBD hand cream does really help with dry skin and even treats small scratches and skin disorders (disclaimer: this is only my experience and I am not making any statements on behalf of Green Stem CBD).
Green Stem CBD Bath Bomb comes in a nice square box. This bath bomb contains Sandalwood, Lavender and Jasmine and it is great addition to the ultimate bath relaxation experience. The bath bomb lasted quite a while and dissolved very gradually. The smell of this bath bomb is incredible. As I laid in my bath, I watched it transform into a royal botanical garden where all my stress and anxiety melted into the blue sky. I felt very relaxed and soothed after using this CBD bath bomb, my skin felt rejuvenated, smooth and healthier. The CBD element of this bath bomb, coupled with the earthy and flowery scents made for a very calm and relaxed bath experience.
Green Stem CBD Lip Balm comes in small, portable tube containers. The natural CBD lip balm is quite neutral in smell and is ideal for everyday use. The Eucalyptus CBD Lip Balm has a refreshing and invigorating smell and feel. When it had gotten a bit windy in my local area (Wapping), the Eucalyptus lip balm created a chilly sensation on my lips, which I quite enjoyed. However, neutral lip balm would probably be more appropriate during the chilly and windy period. Both lip balms are very long lasting and so not come off that easily even after a hearty lunch, a coffee and some bubble tea which means that the lips are always moisturised. Normally, my lips are quite dry, but these CBD lip balms definitely made my lips feel moisturised and soft during the best part of the day!
Green Stem CBD Gummies come in a very luxurious and durable bronze coloured meta container. I thought that the packaging of these CBD Gummies was the best out of the lot. It definitely creates a more sumptuous and opulent finish. The gummies are not actually gummy shaped, but are rather jelly pieces. Before I tried the CBD gummies, I expected a very sweet taste. I was very pleasantly surprised when I tried the CBD gummies because they tasted more like mildly sweetened tonic water with slightly leafy and earthy scents. I can actually see why these gummies would appeal to a more mature audience with a more conservative taste palette. After eating four or five gummies, I felt very relaxed and calm after about twenty minutes. My stress levels had dropped drastically and I ended up putting on some deephouse night vibe tracks and drifted off into a cosy midday snooze. Another thing that I have noticed is that these gummies do not have that acidic sensation on your teeth after you had eaten some sugar gummies. If you are not a fan of sugar and do not have a sweet tooth, these gummies are definitely for you. What I particularly enjoyed about these CBD gummies is that they are not sweet so as to become very more-ish. I tried sweeter CBD gummies and ended up finishing the entire pack in a day because the sugar made me forget about the CBD aspect.
I ended up taking this Green Stem CBD Tonic Water on a distant car trip. Before I popped the can open on M11, I expected some sweet and sparkly that will send me into an instant sugar overload! I was yet again pleasantly surprised, this tonic water is quite bitter but not bitter in the sense that I do not want to drink this. The slight bitter sensation was cancelled out by the taste of citrus notes and I could feel some earthy sensations too. The actual water is quite well-rounded and not at all dry as you would expect from tonic water. It is a great thirst quencher because after a few sips, I felt very refreshed and reinvigorated. I also felt quite chilled out on the motorway when normally, I would be more tense and stressed out. The price of this CBD tonic water is definitely very competitive considering that you are getting some health benefits out of it.
I have tried all types of CBD oils from many CBD brands but these CBD oils were absolutely NOTHING like I have tried before. I have noticed that a lot of CBD oils on the market either contain a hemp or cannabis taste or aftertaste which I do not mind but I do know that it has putten some people off. For example, when carrying such CBD oils with you, can leave a hemp or cannabis smell on you which can be reputationally damaging and cause people to mistakenly think that what you are consuming may not be entirely legal. Green Stem Black Cherry CBD Oil Oral Drops and Green Stem Peppermint CBD Oil Oral Drops definitely transgress all the expectations, the Black Cherry CBD Oil smells like a Morello cherry that you would have on top of your cake or a cupcake, it is very fragrant but at the same time extremely subtle. When trying the black cherry cbd oil, all I could taste is just very faint black cherry. The cbd oil has a very neutral taste with a subtle black cherry finish that leaves a pleasant sensation in the mouth. The eucalyptus CBD oil is likewise very subtle and has a very gentle minty sensation that is subtle and does not send you into an arctic overload in your mouth. The CBD oil takes a good ten minutes to kick in. I immediately felt very chilled out and my brain and the entire body became relaxed in the background without frustrating my mental faculties. This CBD oil works great for any time of the day and not just before sleep.
Overall, Green Stem CBD hosts a great stable of very luxury and artisan CBD products that are nothing like you have tried before. The Green Stem CBD products are great for a more discriminatory clientele who are looking for subtle and sophisticated products. The packaging of Green Stem CBD products corresponds to the quality. My overall impression of this brand is that it is geared towards more conservative people who value quality. The prices of Green Stem CBD products are very affordable and not prohibitively expensive as I had expected them to be. I would recommend Green Stem CBD products to those who are looking to benefit from CBD but without a “shouting” presence of hemp or cannabis smells.

For an effortless wellbeing boost, Green Stem CBD’s super-sleek new VPOD vape pen delivers all the potential health benefits of CBD effectively – and in just seconds.
The simple but powerful vape system is easily refillable with Green Stem CBD’s 2ml flavoured e-liquid pods, and features a lightweight aluminium body in stylish teal or rose gold. Allowing for easy inhalation and a swift hit on the go, its super-efficient battery will allow an entire day’s vaping for even the most frequent users.
Known medically as cannabidiol, CBD is extracted from hemp plants and is said to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and pain-relieving effects. It is also thought to dramatically ease anxiety conditions as well as the misery of insomnia. In fact, many people who have never vaped before are turning the VPOD as a safe way to tackle all kinds of stressful situations – such as job interviews, exams and fear-inducing situations.
Surrey-based Green Stem CBD products are made with vegan-friendly hemp ethically-sourced from the US. All products are 100% free of THC – the psychoactive ingredient of cannabis – making them entirely legal and safe to use.
Green Stem CBD prides itself on stocking a high-quality range of fruit and herb-inspired vape oils for use in the VPOD, which come in a variety of strengths. The e-liquids are available in a range of enticing flavours, including apple and raspberry, lemon and mango, cherries and berries, peppermint and wild strawberry. An unflavoured booster CBD shot can also be used in the VPOD.
With vaping known to be one of the fastest ways to deliver CBD into the body, the VPOD is activated simply by pressing the firing button and inhaling through the mouthpiece. It is also designed for vaping high PG, nicotine salts, and 50/50 e-liquids. In addition, the stainless-steel coils within the pods are designed to ensure even vapour production, as well as a consistent flavour.
Brett Horth, CEO of Green Stem CBD says: “We know people want an easy to use the vaping kit, giving them the choice of flavours and strengths, but without the fiddly, leaking refills that are currently available. We have introduced an innovative and, importantly, reliable 2ml pod – which means less fuss and mess with refilling and less, waste while customers have complete personal and flexible choice over their flavour and strength. A high-performance battery also means it can last even the most ardent vaper the whole day.”

About Green Stem
Green Stem was founded in October 2018 by brothers Brett and Simon Horth. The idea came to light when vaping business owner Brett took some CBD oil to their mother, who had been struggling with arthritic hands, back pain and broken sleep. Although she was sceptical and feared ‘getting high’, she was reassured it was safe to try. Three days later, she called to tell her sons that the pain in her hands and her back had eased and she enjoyed the best night’s sleep she could remember.
With the Green Stem vision born, the pair immersed themselves in the CBD market, visiting Colorado to meet suppliers and researching products and formulations. From the outset, they knew they would use only the very best; meaning the purest and highest potency CBD available. All products contain active CBD from either 99% pure CBD isolate or broad-spectrum hemp oil distillate. Green Stem products are also created in the UK and adhere to strict guidelines on quality and purity.
March 2019 saw the UK’s first industry Hemp & CBD expo and awards, and though the brothers were not yet ready, they decided to create a small run of products for the event. They submitted seven entries out of 11 categories, and were thrilled and overwhelmed to win five of them – in a field of more than 110 exhibitors. The awards were for Best CBD Oil, Best Inhalable, Best Cosmetic, Best Packaging and Best Exhibition Stand.
After meeting representatives from Boots that same day, they were later invited to be part of the store’s new CBD product range in its ‘Store of the Future.’ Last month, Green Stem products went on sale in 350 Boots stores.
Wellbeing pioneers Green Stem CBD have proudly scooped another set of high-profile national awards, adding to a phenomenal tally this year. Triumphing at the recent UK Hemp & CBD Show, the Surrey-based company walked away with the coveted honour of ‘Best Oil’ for its 300mg Black Cherry-flavoured CBD oral drops. The oil was singled out by judges for its clean, light taste with just a hint of fresh cherry, as well as its effective delivery of health-promoting CBD. As if that weren’t enough, Green Stem CBD also notched up major wins in the ‘Best Packaging’ and ‘Best Inhalable’ categories.

The latest accolades are the perfect companion to the five awards that Green Stem CBD won earlier this year at the inaugural UK Hemp & CBD Show. There, it won the top prize for its Seville Orange-flavoured CBD oil, plus its natural lip balm and apple and raspberry vape liquid, as well as in the packaging and display stand categories.
With its products attracting such widespread recognition and acclaim, Green Stem CBD’s presence on the UK high street has increased dramatically in recent months, with several items now available at Boots stores nationwide – including its CBD drops in three flavours, luxury bath bombs and soothing lip balms. The full range, which now extends to edibles, drinks and vape kits, is also available online.
Extracted from hemp plants, CBD – or cannabidiol – is renowned for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and pain-relieving qualities. It is also said to ease anxiety and insomnia and bring other wide-ranging benefits to the skin and body. All Green Stem CBD products are free from THC, which is the psychoactive ingredient of cannabis that causes the ‘high’. Safe and legal to use, every product is rigorously tested, so that all the potential benefits of cannabis can be enjoyed, without any negative effects.
Brett Horth, CEO of Green Stem CBD said: “We’ve put a huge amount of work into creating and perfecting our range, so we’re over the moon about receiving these latest awards. The recognition of these events reflects the quality of our products, and also shows that Green Stem CBD is leading the way in the wellness sector right now. It’s an exciting place to be, and we believe this is just the beginning.”

Read MoreWinter was waning in the D.C. adjacent border community of Silver Spring, Maryland on Tuesday, March 5th. While most offices on the East Coast were getting ready to wind down for the day, the office of the Federal Drug Administration had a national spotlight drawn on it. In a press release, FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb announced his resignation. A stormy path had been navigated by Gottlieb, often running afoul of both sides of the vaping debate. But his departure left the vapor industry in a state of flux. As Gottlieb exited his position at the FDA, new draft guidance was issued moving the Premarket Tobacco Authorization (PMTA) period for vape up from August 8th, 2022 to 2021 – and more importantly – proposed ending its tolerance of flavored vape juices.
Further complicating this news was the appointment of Acting Commissioner Norman Sharpless, whom has publicly expressed support for Gottlieb’s approach to regulating vapor products. The FDA’s approach was thrown yet again into deeper chaos in May when a Federal Judge struck down the FDA’s proposed date of August 8th, 2021 for enforcing PMTA applications and demanded they begin reviewing applications immediately. While the FDA has yet to appeal this ruling, it points to a continuing trend of combative governmental oversight of the vapor industry.
This all comes at a critical juncture for the vapor industry. As challenges to vapor packaging emerge from the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), external pressure has been pushing on a vape industry trying to quietly continue doing business. Thousands of companies, brands and shops have been struggling to make sense of an increasingly grey visage of the near future. Historically, despite offering compliance deadlines and requirements, the FDA has been loath to stick to any guidance it has issued. Other than letters and incidences of public shaming, the FDA has – seemingly arbitrarily – shift compliance deadlines and failed to enforce any of its proposed policies across the vapor industry. This lackadaisical approach to regulation has left many in the vapor industry frustrated as they sought to comply with the FDA’s exacting standards and expectations for regulatory filings and compliance deadlines.
A natural response to these actions by the vapor industry has seen many vape companies expanding beyond the vapor industry. The passing of the 2019 Farm Bill opened up the opportunity for the sale of cannabidiol (CBD). While this is still very much a legal grey area until outright legalization of hemp and cannabis is codified into Federal law, it has spurred a confidence in vape companies to diversify outside of the vape industry and into CBD. This isn’t possible for every vape company financially, but entrepreneurs in the vape space are in search of stability the vape industry looks increasingly unable to afford. The vape industry however isn’t all doom and gloom however.
The vapor market has continued to expand among traditional vape businesses, with the American vapor industry pulling in over $13 billion annually. New shops continue to open and the array of products continue to innovate. But that innovation has been disproportionately fueled by the advent of pod systems. The JUUL from JUUL Labs has become a juggernaut in the vaping world. After investment from Altria, JUUL is expected to account for over a 1/5 of the vape market by itself as it is forecasted to hit $3.4 billion in sales. While this performance is impressive, the impact that JUUL has left on the market has been mixed. The modern teen vaping epidemic has been fueled, in no small part, by illegal acquisition of JUUL devices and pods by underage vapers. The rise of the verb “JUULing” has become the most familiar term to consumers outside the vapor industry for vaping. For many, it is the only term they will ever know when it comes to the vapor industry. The public outcry following reporting and studies on the vapor epidemic have done immeasurable harm to the public perception of the vapor industry, with parents and public health groups aggressively conflating the vapor industry as a whole with JUUL’s pod device. It becomes incredibly difficult to see a path forward to reclaiming the public image of vaping as a vanguard for good or a product for smokers looking to transition away from combustible tobacco. This negative public perception may not be the albatross on the neck of the vapor industry it may seem. A central tenet to the vapor industry’s ideology since its inception has always been to appeal to smokers. A public perception of pod systems being a negative force could allow traditional vape companies to focus on converting smokers moving forward.
The nature of vaping looking to convert smokers has long been a successful market strategy. Despite acknowledgements by the FDA regarding the necessity of flavors in vape juices to stop them from returning to smoking, draft guidance was still issued to propose eliminating flavors. While it seems obvious that these fights will be tied up in the courts long past the August 8th, 2021 deadline, there still exists a salient public conversation to be had about traditional vaping and smokers. Those solutions will most likely have to be pursued legislatively and advance action by companies like JUUL doesn’t paint the most optimistic of pictures. Late in 2018, JUUL pulled its flavored pods from retail stores, a proactive action most likely aimed at getting ahead of an expected FDA decision to ban flavors from stores, but likely also a means to tamp down on both governmental and public perception that their selling of flavors in retail stores – particularly convenience and drug stores – was contributing to the perception of JUUL as being a driving force in the teen vaping epidemic. But, even a company as large as JUUL can be bamboozled by the workings of the FDA. Half a year later and no action has been taken by the FDA on the regulation of flavors, nor has the FDA begun to implement any actions on PMTA filings.
The requirements of filings for the PMTA is a testy subject in the vape industry. The reality is that very few vape companies have the expendable capital to explore the process of properly submitting a PMTA. While there is no conclusive literature supporting the material cost of an e-cigarette being accepted by the PMTA process, it is estimated that the process could easily reach into the millions of dollars for all of the requisite lab testing, toxicology reports, registration fees and supporting literature to bring through a successful application for each individual SKU that a company produces. Practically speaking, you could submit a SKU for vapor product for a PMTA for $20,000, but your chances of getting your product accepted are virtually non-existent thanks to the FDA’s ludicrously high standards of the acceptance of what they deem as tobacco products.
All of this leaves an obvious picture of the future if the FDA sticks to its guns. As vaping companies shut down or transition away from vape into other industries, pod systems supported by the major tobacco manufacturers – colloquially referred to as Big Tobacco – will slowly become the vaping industry in America. The irony of this situation should be lost on no one as the aggressive efforts to regulate the vapor industry to address products that may be unsafe or a potential threat to the public well-being vis-à-vis the teenage vaping epidemic, would ultimately result in the very devices at the center of these controversies becoming the only thing available on the market.
It should come as no surprise to anyone that only multi-billion dollar juggernauts like Altria and JUUL Labs will end up being able to get their products through the expensive and time-consuming PMTA process. As they pare down their product offerings in preparation for future industry changes, they will be able to easily convert their products into FDA approved devices as the country complains about teens “JUULing” well into the 2020s, 2030s and beyond. While this may look grim in the United States, it doesn’t present a fatal outlook of the technology itself. Losing America as a market is a brutal hit for any industry, but the vapor industry remains strong abroad in Europe, Japan and China with markets rapidly growing in countries like Australia, South Africa and South Korea.
As vaping is explored scientifically into the future, additional large markets are primed and ready to open for legal sales in the Middle East (UAE) and Africa (Western Africa and Kenya). Vaping is not on a downswing by any measure globally. Investment in globally focused brands will keep companies founded in America operating internationally for many years to come. But it is hard not to lament the overly aggressive regulatory strategy, that seems almost market-tailored for Big Tobacco’s dominance to enter into the vape space. Vape was founded as a way to migrate society away from combustible tobacco. It was a cultural force for years before being hijacked and branded by the teen vaping epidemic. It seems profoundly sad that an industry born and developed in America could see itself become snuffed out by people rushing to judgements based off of one crisis while simultaneously doing everything but addressing the underlying issues with the crisis itself. But this isn’t to cast a shadow of gloom over the vapor industry. As has been said before, we’ll see the vapor industry continue to thrive for many years to come through legal challenges and protracted court battles from the traditional vaping industry’s largest juggernauts.
The future of vaping remains uncertain, but the genie is already outside of the lamp and vaping will forever remain a globally dominant market-force.
It’s strange to think that just a few years ago, vaping was pretty uncommon. Now, it’s hard to get away from e-cigarettes. And the people who vape are passionate about it! Vapers are always looking for vape juices and gadgets to improve their experience. If you’re one of those people, you’ll be pleased to know about the exciting vaping innovations that are happening in 2019. Here are some of the hottest vaping trends right now!
Vaping is a great option if you want to stop smoking. But if you’re using e-juice that contains nicotine, you’re just furthering your nicotine dependence. It’s no wonder that nicotine-free vape juices are on the rise in 2019. If you use e-juice without nicotine, you still experience a sensation that is similar to smoking but without the negative long-term effects of nicotine. This year, expect to see more vape juices with zero nicotine.
Vape mods are nothing new, but in 2019 expect to see more vape pens that are compatible with modifications. This year mods will become more widely available to the average consumer. Some of these mods include ways to change your vape’s temperature and ways to make vaping even safer. Check out Moon Mountain’s store for some cool vape mods to take your vaping experience to the next level!
As vaping becomes more common, people are more open to vaping in public around others. Because of this, the demand for smaller vaping pens that are easy to use on-the-go has increased. In 2019, expect to keep seeing smaller vaping pens that lend themselves portability.
One of the major reasons people love vaping so much is the great-tasting flavors. Vegetable glycerin (VG) is one vape juice ingredient you can expect to see more of in 2019. The substance is non-toxic and produces more vapor. It’s usually made from soybean, coconut, or palm oils. VG is a common ingredient in sweeteners. When it’s in your vape juice, you can expect to taste a little extra sweetness. In addition, vegetable glycerin is thick, which makes it more soothing on your throat than most PG vape juices.
The longer that any product is the around, the more time there is to work out any kinks in its design. The same is true of vaping! As more and more people try and enjoy vaping, not only is the quantity of vaping devices going up but so is the quality of vaping products. The standard for what makes a good vape pen continues to rise. People want more out of their vape pens. They want vape pens that last longer and are more efficient.

Read MoreRheumatoid Arthritis (RA) has seriously inhibited my life. Since I was diagnosed at the age of 8, I’ve been dealing with its symptoms for decades. Swollen joints all over, eventual TMJ in the jaw, restless legs and brain fog, among many others. I’ve also been given a large variety of medications over the years and have seen specialist after specialist in search of some way to ease my symptoms.
Because there is currently no cure for RA, you have to resort to managing the symptoms that come with it. Regardless of which medication I’ve taken to do so, there always seems to be some sort of downside that occurs. Whether it’s mood swings, painful injections, or simply liver toxicity as a result, treating RA has always seemed to require some type of exchange for feeling a semblance of relief.
This is why I was completely surprised when I was visiting California last year and decided to try some CBD oil that a friend was using. Though I had heard it could help with anti-inflammation, it had never actually crossed my mind to try it out.
A few drops of CBD oil later, though, and I was seriously impressed. It felt as though my symptoms went away entirely, like the tin man once he oiled up his joints!
However, having success one time wasn’t enough for me to be sure that it was actually the CBD. After all, how many times have I had the same reaction to other medications, only to find out that it didn’t work any of the times after?
This was the reason as to why I needed to investigate more and see whether or not CBD oil is actually helpful for Rheumatoid Arthritis. I’m here to share my findings with you, so let’s get right into it!
Before I begin this article, it’s important to note that you should always consult a medical professional before introducing any type of substance or supplement into your diet. Because CBD oil can affect everyone differently and because everyone’s body is different, you should get the approval of your doctor before seeking out CBD. It also might not be legal where you live, so it’s always important to check!
Cannabidiol (known colloquially as CBD) is a compound typically sourced from cannabis or hemp plants. It is often referred to as a part of the plant that has no psychoactive effects, giving you a gentle sensation of calmness instead. It works by satisfying your body’s cannabidioid receptors which are naturally producing cannabidioids, giving the user neurological and physical effects.
Due to CBD’s legality in many US states, it has become somewhat of a trend recently, with many people beginning to use it in a variety of foods and health products. However, despite it being a trend, there are a handful of healthy benefits to using CBD, namely for it potentially being able to ease the symptoms that typically come with RA.
CBD is often administered in a variety of different ways, whether you want to take an edible gummy incorporate it into your vaporizer routine, or just use a tincture to take the oil. However, it’s worth noting that taking CBD oil is one of the most cost-effective and popular ways to take it, making the oil one of the best methods for anybody looking to try it out. I’ll be talking about CBD oil in this article because I find it to be the most effective method and a personal preference.
Whether or not CBD oil works for you depends on the circumstance and which type of product you’re taking. This is what I found out when researching CBD oils, as oftentimes many products aren’t regulated by the FDA and therefore don’t have accurate measurements listed on their labels. This is the most crucial part of the process as without a good product you will be wasting both your time and money, something that took me a long time to figure out. If you have a doctor who can recommend you to a medical program that allows you to get government distributed CBD, that is a great option too.
However, if you do your research and are able to find a product that works for many people, then you’re able to move onto the next step of the process: taking it. Taking CBD oil is typically just a matter of having a dropper (otherwise known as a tincture) that you administer directly to your mouth. You put anywhere between 1-3 drops underneath your tongue (specific measurement depends on the product) and wait 30 seconds to a minute before swallowing.
How long the CBD then takes to reach your system depends on your personal reaction to the substance. For my first time using CBD, I was able to feel noticeable results within 30 minutes, but sometimes it also took an hour.
After the CBD is absorbed into your system, you will likely start noticing many benefits. For example, it decreases inflammation very well on top of also decreasing your brain’s overall reception to pain. So, not only will you be feeling less pain overall, but you’ll also be having less pain to begin with.
Many people who have RA also enjoy using CBD due to it also being great for anxiety. As someone who deals with an anxiety disorder and RA, I appreciated being able to use one medication for both of my conditions. However, it’s worth noting that if you take too much CBD oil, you might feel a bit drowsy, so it’s important to familiarize yourself with a specific dose before you start using it regularly.
Another benefit that I love about using CBD oil is that it really helps reduce any restless leg symptoms I have. Having restless leg syndrome as a result of RA makes it incredibly difficult for me to go to sleep sometimes, making CBD a perfect solution to many different problems I deal with.
However, something I want to say about CBD is that it doesn’t work for everyone. Some people with high pain thresholds will not feel any effect when using CBD, while others will notice that it only helps temper their symptoms about half of the time. If you’ve done your research and think that it’s right for you (with the approval of a medical professional), it’s definitely worth looking into, but your mileage may vary.
Another thing to mention about CBD products is that it can be quite expensive if you’re paying out of pocket. Even if you were to get a medical card, it’s important to note that it is not covered under health insurance, so you’ll still have to pay out of pocket. That being said, if it’s a medication that works for you, it’s definitely worth the price, but this is why you should experiment with different brands and see if you can find one that doesn’t put too much of a strain on your wallet.
In Conclusion
Having Rheumatoid Arthritis is not a remotely pleasant illness. This is why so many patients with the condition spend years looking for effective ways to manage their symptoms, often never finding something that doesn’t have some sort of trade off.
For many people, CBD oil has profoundly helpful effects on managing Rheumatoid Arthritis symptoms, making it ideal for those who are looking for a natural medication that doesn’t have any negative downsides. However, like I stated at the beginning of this article, you should always get the opinion of a medical professional before looking into using CBD oil. This is because not all treatments work the same and it might not be the best choice for you.
That being said, CBD oil has greatly helped me as somebody living with RA and I believe that it is definitely worth looking into and perhaps taking if you’re somebody still looking for a substance that actually works. If you’re somebody who deals with RA pain, look into CBD oil today to see if it’s right for you!
Read MoreCan CBD Improve Your Sex Life? Here’s the Advice from the Owner of The Good Budz
When founding a start-up, it has been difficult for me to find time to eat, sleep, keep fit, maintain a social life or relationship. If things hadn’t worked out the way they did, I would’ve been in a position where I’d tell you not to ask me about treating myself to a sex life. I would likely given up trying to enjoy it due to stress and exhaustion
I imagine comparing this stage of my life to the stress of taking exams in high school, writing a dissertation in university or possibly even having children. Any all-consuming experience where 99% of your life unknowingly takes the backseat with faith that it will all be worth it one day. Unfortunately, time is only thing that can’t be mustered up by magic when more is needed and that means basic human needs are neglected.
My story begins a few years back when I lived in the states, I experimented like all students do and became a big fan of Marijuana. I would smoke or vape with my friends regularly and it became a staple part of my life during those years. During this period, many things improved in my life but something I hadn’t expected was just how much my sex life would develop. A consequence of this experimenting came a new outlook on my sex life – where my usual expectation of disappointment flipped, and now sex held a great potential.
The thing about the weed that I smoked was that it was high in THC, and this was all we looked for – flowers with the highest THC for the least money. We believed the best highs were those where the weed was the strongest, and for the most part I guess that was true. To us, high THC content meant that any activity you partake in would be much more enjoyable, hilarious and satisfying. The main reason being the psychoactive effects of THC created a subtlety different outlook on the world.
I would look out for the strains which people had linked to amazing sex and funnily enough, the strains that were known for enabling great sex didn’t always have high THC content but I thought no further about it at the time and just got on with it.
Skip forward to my move home to England when I started my first real job and very quickly realised that my new found smoking habbits were not going to last long in the world of corporate working! This meant that the expectations of my sex life reverted back to being that of disappointment. Combine that with the stress and anxiety of my new job and my diminishing youth and poof, I believed the best times had passed and my sex life was gone forever.
CBD weed, marijuana light, hemp flowers, or whatever variation you would like to call it… Essentially, it’s legal, doesn’t get you ‘high’ but it still makes you relaxed, confident, horny and it most definitely brought back the amazing sex life I wanted to maintain!
I happened to stumble across this as I was living with someone who worked for a CBD company. He found out I used to smoke a lot and suggested if I wanted to try something that wasn’t street weed, he could definitely get me something. After being pretty sceptical, I gave it a go and soon realised the good feeling was back.
I felt motivation to tell everyone I knew that something LEGAL can create such an amazing improvement to their lives. What I’d been introduced to is actually called Hemp and it is not what people know as marijuana – it’s a totally different plant!
I did my research and realised that Hemp isn’t a new thing – it is sold globally in other industries, pharmaceutical, industrial and it’s actually such a strong material that they use it to make rope! Hemp happens to have high CBD content and trace amounts of THC. This discovery meant that many companies could get hold of hemp and create concentrates of CBD for other products! Mind blown, I decided to try everything I could – CBD oils, CBD vape juice, CBD sweets and I continued to find more and more interesting CBD flower strains.
I soon realised that CBD was the answer to many peoples life problems – from consumers reporting health and well being improvements from CBD fixing general anxiety to CBD replacing morphine for pain management. I knew there was something to look into here and got excited by the prospect of starting my own company and spreading the message!
After getting involved in the industry through my company, The Good Budz (where I began selling natural hemp flowers rich in CBD, CBG, CBC), I started engaging more with the community. I found many people had searched for ways to improve general well-being using CBD. I found that most commonly, consumers purchase CBD oil and pop a few drops under their tongue each day!
The simplicity of dropping a couple drops of oil under your tongue to relieve daily stress/anxiety was too good to be true to me. Unfortunately, I’ve heard that companies are selling ‘CBD oils’ which are actually just hemp seed oil and although the name sounds convincing, it doesn’t actually contain any cannabinoids. Due to lack of regulation or testing, no one is questioning it… Even Holland and Barrett are rumoured to sell CBD oil which has barely any Cannabinoid content. Crazy, I know.
The idea of this simple and effective CBD miracle drove me crazy and I wanted to create a product I could trust… so I decided to use the high quality CBD hemp flowers that The Good Budz already sold and create a high quality CBD Oil which I knew the exact content of and could see if the effects as great as promised. They were.
My company, The Good Budz, now sell this CBD oil in three different strengths to cater for peoples tolerance levels and we are super proud to say that we share our content on each bottle so everyone knows what cannabinoids they are getting. Funnily enough, the other cannabinoids – CBC, CBG and CBN are each as valuable as CBD
Associated with anxiety & pain relief, linked to improving acne, insomnia and symptoms of menopause and cancer.
Could as as an anti-inflammatory and pain relief. Potential to contribute to the regeneration of brain cells, positively impacting treatments of multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, dementia, alzheimer and other related conditions
Shows potential to prevent nerve degeneration, as well as having antioxidant, antibacterial and antifungal properties.
It seems a no-brainer that cannabinoids enhance lifestyles and have potential to take a disappointing sex life and turn it into something amazing. I think there is still this stigma around the word cannabinoids and this is slowly changing in the UK as people become more familiarised and aware of the benefits.
I know that the full spectrum oils and natural hemp flowers that we sell is reaching others and helping to change this perception. We have also just launched our amazing cannabinoid edible range and feedback of people ‘indulging’ in CBD edibles prior to sex is really what makes it worth all the effort.
Everyone has heard that a woman needs to feel relaxed and comfortable in order to enjoy sex… somewhat of a skill in today’s society. A quick solution could be the use of cannabinoids to take away self-doubt or anxieties and finally relax and enjoy the moment. A few drops of CBD oil has allowed me to feel exactly like my usual self but without self-doubt and anxiety and for me CBD is the key to realising and maintaining your sexual potential, both alone and with partners.
Try it for yourself, I promise it’s worth it <3
Read MoreIf you have been looking for a natural treatment with CBD, you may have seen a huge number of various hemp CBD products available today.
While it is certainly not a bad thing in itself, and is, in fact, a confirmation of the therapeutic benefits of hemp CBD, the abundance of choice can make one’s head spin.
Here’s a concise overview to help you make an informed decision about the health products you are going to select.
This is the most popular form of supplementing with CBD. Available in bottles, water or oil-based, to be taken in the form of drops in the morning and evening in the comfort of your own bathroom.
Oils and tinctures are used sublingually, which allows for fast absorption. Their greatest advantage is purity. They normally do not require any preservatives or additives, though some manufacturers use taste flavourings. If you opt to take CBD in liquid form, make sure there are no unnecessary artificial ingredients. Preservatives and chemicals can compromise the whole point of using supplements for perfect health.
CBD extract can be made with a number of oils as a base, including coconut oil, grapeseed oil and hemp seed oil. CBD extract diluted with hemp seed oil is the most synergistic and potent formula. This formula creates a powerful entourage effect. Studies have found that the hempseed oil is by far the best agent for CBD, as it increases its bio-availability by protecting it from being broken down by stomach acids. Furthermore, hemp seed oil has been dubbed “Nature’s most perfectly balanced oil” due to the fact that it contains the perfectly balanced 3:1 ratio of essential fatty acids (EFAs) Omega 3 : Omega 6 for long term human consumption.
Another aspect to consider is the method of extraction, which was used to get CBD from the plant material. Often less expensive hemp CBD oils may use harsh solvents such as butane or propane. While this makes extraction process cheaper, the question is do you really want to compromise the health benefits of your hemp CBD oil with products that may contain residuals of the toxic substances. Supercritical CO2 extraction is proven to be the best method for creating hemp CBD oil. This method involves using carbon dioxide under high pressure to isolate over 100 cannabinoids from the raw hemp botanical material. Reputable manufacturers employ CO2 extraction and are proud to mention it.
To compare different products, express CBD concentration in percentage terms by dividing the CBD amount in milligrams by the total amount of liquid in the bottle. A 10 ml bottle is 10,000 mg. Thus, 500 mg of CBD per 10 ml bottle equals 500/10,000*100=5%.
While higher doses of CBD will have a more pronounced effect, it is best to start with a low entry-level concentration of 5%.
Observe the effects over the course of several days and make adjustments if needed. If you do not see the desired effects after 5-7 days, start gradually working your dose up.
Note, that as a natural holistic remedy, CBD oil/tinctures may not necessarily produce desired effects immediately after taking as pharmaceutical drugs do. Most pharmaceutical drugs act chemically in a very targeted way with the purpose of alleviating symptoms rather than mobilizing internal resources and gradually helping the body to heal.
It is observed that it takes the body at least one week to start accumulating and using hemp CBD active ingredients in an optimal manner.
This is the second most popular form to take CBD. Softgels and gummies are most convenient for taking throughout the day on the go.
Other active ingredients, such as e.g. tumeric or melatonin can be mixed into capsules to generate synergistic effects when taken for specific conditions.
For those who enjoy the process vaping, CBD can be delivered through the lungs. Generally, vaping allows very fast delivery of CBD into the bloodstream. This form is also best for tackling conditions related to the chest area.
One thing to be aware of with regards to CBD vape liquid is that CBD oil can be too thick and viscous for vaporizers, and thus companies use chemically-based thinning agents, some of which can be harmful especially with long-term regular use. Read labels carefully, and research ingredients you do not understand.
This is yet somewhat of an innovative product in the market. Usually, these drinks contain caffeine, which gives energy, but CBD takes the edge off, so there are no jitters, and one just feels good, has more energy and can focus more clearly. It is a very promising form to supplement with CBD for college students and office workers.
CBD balms are usually used in conjunction with other CBD products to provide a more pronounced topical relief to e.g. joint aches. The concentration of cannabinoids is highest at the place where they are applied, and thus balms can greatly amplify the positive effects of oral CBD use.
Having discovered the amazing benefits of hemp CBD, humans extended them to pets. Interestingly, while some people may not feel much when taking CBD, pets, and especially dogs, are very sensitive to it. Even older, arthritis-ridden dogs become very playful and start jumping around the house. As one specialised company puts it, “We are yet to hear about a dog who did not see an amazing result with using CBD treats”. CBD treats also works miracles for dogs with separation anxiety.
This is a new trend in the CBD market, and undoubtedly, a major one. Skin is known to contain a huge number of CBD receptors, and protective anti-cancer benefits of CBD bode well for all sorts of anti-age creams and sunscreens. And here, let me suggest you try something unorthodox: instead of going for chemically-loaded cosmetics formulas, try to use for at least 3-4 weeks a 100% simple all-natural plant CBD extract oil. Why? Because CBD is a wholesome remedy and works by modulating and harnessing internal body resources to generate optimum balance, and all the “alien” chemicals may actually interfere and weaken the ingenious effect.
To conclude, let me leave you with this one thought. The research findings on CBD published in the past few years look nothing short of miraculous. With no significant side-effects reported, what can possibly hold you back from giving a go to the amazing natural medicine to see what it can do to improve your health and wellbeing?
This short guide intends to equip you with the most essential information about CBD, including how it works on the human body, the legality of CBD, whether or not it causes a high and how to choose the right CBD oil.
If you are looking to improve your health and overall well being, hemp CBD extract may well be the most important supplement for you to take.
While many herbs can be effective for a wide variety of conditions, hemp CBD extract is in a league of its own.
According to a list compiled from hundreds of peer-reviewed articles in scientific journals and PubMed (an online service of the U.S. National Library of Medicine), hemp CBD has been found therapeutic for more than 50(!) conditions ranging from acne and insomnia to epilepsy and seizures.
This is thanks to the plant’s numerous – over 100 – active compounds called cannabinoids.
In fact, our bodies also produce cannabinoids. And we call them endocannabinoids, from ‘endo’ meaning ‘‘internal’ in Greek.
Hemp phytocannabinoids discharge their beneficial action via the Human Endocannabinoid System (HES), which was discovered back in the 1990s.
The discovery of HES is arguably the most important discovery in human physiology in the late 20th century.
Scientists have found HES to be of the paramount importance in our bodies. Its receptors (called CB1 and CB2) are ubiquitous and are found in every organ of the body. It is responsible for maintaining and controlling homeostasis, or balanced regulation of each and every system in the body. HES regulates a wide array of bodily functions, from appetite to sleep patterns, moods, metabolism, immune response, the lifespan of cells and much much more.
Scientists still need to understand a lot about HES, but as of today HES appears to be the system behind all the other body systems, thus, it sort of holds the key to overall health and well-being.
Already back in 2001, the theory of clinical endocannabinoid deficiency (CED) was put forward by Dr. Ethan Russo, neurologist and medical scientist.
Now imagine for a moment what would happen if you never took vitamin C in your entire life because the government made it illegal? Surely, after a while, all kind of problems and disbalances would arise due to vitamin C deficiency.
Luckily for us, the wave of hemp legalization, which has started a few years ago is rolling across the globe at full speed, with more and more countries are legalizing hemp for medical use and for research purposes.
Already in his 2016 research update, Dr. Ethan Russo defined criteria for the evidence of cannabinoid deficiency:
Without sufficient cannabinoids in our diet, the HES operates at less than optimum efficiency, resulting in a general decline in overall health. Supplementing our diets with full spectrum phytocannabinoids by consuming CBD oil may be an essential component to achieving optimal health and regeneration.
Some doctors go as far as to claim that “More people will be saved by the manipulation of the endocannabinoid system than are currently saved by surgery.”
As scientists are just starting to make sense of clinical endocannabinoid deficiency, we cannot help but ask: What modern diseases could vanish altogether once the endocannabinoid system is better understood?
The legalisation of medical marijuana has caused a lot of confusion, and the current CBD market can be compared to the Wild West. There are no real rules or regulations as to what medical CBD oil is and what it can be called. There is a lot of misinformation floating around.
One of the main points of confusion comes from the fact that the media often uses the term marijuana to refer to hemp and vice versa. This raises other issues, the most common of which are the legality of CBD oil and whether or not it causes a high. Now let’s set the record straight as to what is meant by hemp, marijuana, cannabis, cannabidiol, medical CBD oil, THC and hemp seed oil.
Cannabis is the Latin, or scientific name, for the entire plant family. Marijuana is a colloquial name for the cannabis plants but is mainly used in reference to cannabis strains which cause a psychoactive effect, euphoria, a so-called “high”. What is generally referred to as hemp plant, on the other hand, is completely non-psychoactive and has been used for centuries for to make a variety of commercial and industrial products including rope, textiles, paper, etc.
In the UK, Europe and USA, psychoactive marijuana is a controlled substance. However, as of the end of 2018, UK, Europe and all of the US states have instituted legislation to regulate the cultivation of non-psychoactive hemp and allow its use as medicine. Some US states, as well as Canada, have also legalized marijuana for recreational use.
Marijuana is high in the psychoactive compound THC, or delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol, the compound that causes a euphoric feeling. Hemp, on the other hand, has negligible amounts of THC. In fact, in order to be legally cultivated, hemp must contain less than 0.2% THC.
Medical CBD oil, aka cannabidiol, is a natural essential oil, which is extracted from the flowers and leaves of the hemp plant. As with hemp, in order to be legally sold, it must contain less than 0.2% of the psychoactive component, THC. Thus, CBD does not cause a feeling of being “high” or “stoned”.
Another important distinction to be made is that hemp seed oil and CBD oil are not the same product.
Hemp seed oil, sometimes referred to as hemp oil, is harvested by cold-pressing hemp seeds. Hemp seed oil is generally used for cooking and as a dietary supplement as it is a good source of polyunsaturated and essential fatty acids. Hemp seed oil does not contain any CBD or other cannabinoids.
Medical CBD oil, on the other hand, is made by extracting the essential oils from the plant’s flower clusters and contains cannabinoids, terpenes, and other active compounds.
Now that you are convinced or at the very least curious about the paramount importance of hemp CBD for your health, the question arises – how to choose the right CBD oil for your condition or improving general well-being.
Note that, it is not about choosing the right hemp CBD oil to treat a specific condition. The oil works holistically on the whole body and can universally treat all conditions via the human endocannabinoid system. It is rather about choosing good quality hemp CBD oil.
While all bottles in the industry may be labelled “CBD”, not all hemp CBD oil is created equal. Here are the 8 most important things you need to consider to avoid disappointment and make an informed decision about the health product you are going to select.
The Journal of the American Medical Association has published a study which revealed that nearly 70%(!) of hemp CBD oil products sold online were mislabeled. “Only 30 percent of CBD products purchased contained an actual CBD content…” stated in the press release about the JAMA study. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reported similar findings about the hemp CBD products in 2015.
Given the overwhelming degree of misinformation in the new unregulated industry, look for independent third party test certificates to ensure that the hemp CBD products contain what they claim to.
Hemp is known to be one of the most highly-absorbent plants. It means that contaminants such as pesticides, chemicals, metals, etc. may ultimately end up in your hemp CBD oil.
The best course of action is to select a hemp CBD oil, which was grown and manufactured in the EU. European regulations regarding hemp are very strict and ensure the highest-quality organic farming standards.
Reputable manufacturers usually state clearly where their hemp CBD oil is sourced from. And again, look for third-party lab test results, which is an indication that the manufacturer takes its quality standards seriously and guarantees that the product is free from contaminants.
Often less expensive hemp CBD oils may use harmful solvents such as butane or propane. While this extraction process is cheaper, the question is do you really want to compromise the health benefits of your hemp CBD oil with products that may contain residuals of the toxic substances.
Supercritical CO2 extraction is proven to be the best method for creating hemp CBD oil. This method involves using carbon dioxide under high pressure to isolate over 100 cannabinoids from the raw hemp botanical material. Reputable manufacturers employ CO2 extraction and are proud to mention it.
Raw hemp material can be put through a series of filtration and distillation processes to extract only one cannabinoid compound (out of over 100), namely the CBD. This extract is then called CBD isolate. In its pure form at room temperature, it looks like solid crystals almost without any smell and colour. CBD isolate is devoid of the benefits of other cannabinoids and active ingredients present in the plant.
Full-spectrum CBD is an extraction of all the active compounds present in the plant and contains all the naturally occurring cannabinoids found in hemp. The evidence is mounting that other cannabinoids naturally contained in the plant provide a host of additional benefits not seen in isolates, thus making full-spectrum CBD hemp oil the best choice. These compounds seem to work in synergy with CBD, creating a powerful entourage effect.
Another type of oil is broad-spectrum hemp CBD. Broad spectrum is made by combining CBD isolate and other isolated cannabinoids and active ingredients. Oftentimes, broad-spectrum oils are less expensive to produce, but they lack the intelligence of the original nature-intended synergistic balance.
And finally, there is synthetically-produced CBD. While it may be the cheapest type of CBD, it is also the least effective and can produce unwanted side-effects.
Hemp CBD oil is available in various concentrations, which are expressed in milligrams (mg) or percentage terms. To compare different products, express CBD concentration in percentage terms by dividing the CBD amount in milligrams by the total amount of liquid in the bottle. A 10 ml bottle is 10,000 mg. Thus, 500 mg of CBD per 10 ml bottle equals 500/10,000*100=5%.
While higher doses of CBD will have a more pronounced effect, it is best to start with a low entry-level concentration of 5%.
Observe the effects over the course of several days and make adjustments if needed. If you do not see the desired effects after 5-7 days, start gradually working your dose up.
Note, that as a natural holistic remedy, CBD oil/tinctures may not necessarily produce desired effects immediately after taking as pharmaceutical drugs do. Most pharmaceutical drugs act chemically in a very targeted way with the purpose of alleviating symptoms rather than mobilizing internal resources and gradually helping the body to heal.
It is observed that it takes the body at least one week to start accumulating and using hemp CBD active ingredients in an optimal manner.
THC is one of the active compounds of cannabis, the one that gives a feeling of euphoria and a high. As of the beginning of 2019, only products with less than 0.2% THC are illegal. 0.2% is an extremely low dosage and does not generate any psychoactive effects. Check the packaging to make sure that there is no unnecessary THC in the product.
CBD oil can be made with a number of oils as a base, including coconut oil, grapeseed oil or hemp seed oil. Studies have found that the hempseed oil is the by far best agent for CBD, as it increases its bio-availability by protecting it from being broken down by stomach acids. Furthermore, hemp seed oil has been dubbed “Nature’s most perfectly balanced oil” due to the fact that it contains the perfectly balanced 3:1 ratio of essential fatty acids (EFAs) Omega 3 : Omega 6 for long term human consumption.
In its original form, hemp CBD oil has a grassy, astringent taste, which some people may find unpleasant. Companies try to mask it with the use of artificial flavourings. Ask yourself, if you would like to get a dose of potentially harmful ingredients every time you use your hemp oil supplement to improve your health and well being.
Bear in mind these 8 points and you will be able to make a good choice of your hemp CBD oil.
To conclude, let me leave you with this one thought. The research findings on CBD published in the past few years look nothing short of miraculous. With no significant side-effects reported, what can possibly hold you back from giving a go to the amazing natural medicine to see what it can do to improve your health and wellbeing?
