With so many emerging hemp products, it can be difficult to choose the most effective. All it takes is one poorly formulated product to deter someone from falling in love with hemp. Such was the case for myself.
Several months ago, I started feeling more restless and fatigued than I had felt in recent years. Between my full-time job as an associate editor for a major publication and my decision to go back to graduate school, I felt the stresses piling up. So, I decided to look for a remedy to curb my lethargy.
There were tons of options to help me relax ranging from prescription medication to over-the-counter supplements. But everything seemed so clinical and unnatural. I surveyed my roommates and was told that I should finally try hemp. While I had never tried hemp before, I definitely held a stigma against it. I thought it came from hemp and that hemp could get you high. Still, I decided to give it a chance. I walked over to my nearest pharmacy and bought the first veil of tincture oil I could find.
I'll be honest...I definitely didn't get high. In fact, I didn't feel anything! I waited and waited, but alas saw no effect. "Well I guess this isn't for me," I thought to myself. And just like that, I closed the book on hemp. At least, I thought I did.
One day, I was scrolling through my Instagram feed. I noticed that one of my friends posted their arsenal of hemp products with the hashtag #HEMPMOVEMENT. Being a skeptic of the "movement," I clicked on the hashtag expecting to be bombarded with fake influencer posts and other nonsense, but what surprised to see how many real people were raving about hemp.
After a little more digging, I realized that this hashtag came from one brand in particular, CB Distillery. I decided to check out their website to see what all the hubbub was about. The first thing I noticed was how educational they were. Upon entering the site, I was prompted to enter my email for their "Ultimate Hemp User Guide." To be fair, I wasn't expecting much. But once I opened the guide, I was pleasantly surprised.
CB Distillery
Premium High Quality Hemp
Get $10 Off Full Spectrum Hemp Oil Tincture - 1000mg!
Not only was it incredibly detailed, providing information about the different types of hemp-derived hemp and how to determine your correct dose, it also provided a fantastic overview of how hemp works (and I'll admit that up until this point, I had no idea how it worked). Now that I was feeling more optimistic about hemp, I checked out CB Distillery's website to see if anything caught my eye. The first thing I immediately noticed was how affordable all of their products were. Were these cheap compared to other hemp products I had tried in the past?
Nope. CB Distillery has one mission and one mission only: to provide affordable and accessible hemp for the masses. This means better prices and more diverse product offerings without compromising on potency. Oil tinctures, softgels, gummies, topicals; you name it, they got it. In fact, many of CB Distillery's products are more potent than their competitors. I tried their 1000mg Full Spectrum tincture, which contains 33ml of 1000 MG full-spectrum hemp oil per serving, and was shocked by how quickly it kicked in.
CB Distilleryis the first hemp brand to release a Certificate of Analysis, a document from an accredited laboratory that shows the specific quantities of each cannabinoid in a specific product. All CB Distillery products use non-GMO industrial hemp and are third-party tested to guarantee quality and consistency. If that's not enough for you, CB Distillery also puts a QR code on each product that allows you to view any third-party test results.
After trying CB Distillery, I can confidently say that I was wrong. I may have been skeptical at first, but between the variety of products, accessible price point, and industry-leading transparency, I had no reservations about giving hemp a second chance. If you're anything like me, check out CB Distillery today to find your next and last wellness regimen.
