Interested in trying CBD but not sure where to start? Enter: CBD gummies. These fruity little chews are the easiest and most discreet way to get your daily dose of cannabidiol (CBD).
While many products look and taste like candy (warning: do not eat the whole bag in one sitting), CBD gummies might be a beneficial addition to your wellness routine if you struggle with anxiety, muscle inflammation and pain, or insomnia.
Similar to candy, there is a vast selection of flavors and brands to choose from when it comes to CBD gummies.
However, it is important to note that they are not all made the same. Full-spectrum CBD includes cannabinoids from the entire hemp plant, like terpenes, phytocannabinoids, and THC (up to the legal limit).
Broad-spectrum CBD goes through an additional process to eliminate THC from the oil extraction. Lastly, isolate CBD is pure CBD with no other cannabinoids.
Whether you are using CBD gummies to help reduce stress or increase rest, it is important to familiarize yourself with the ingredients and make sure they will not interact negatively with any of your existing medications or supplements.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the choices like a kid in a candy store, have no fear! Hold our hand and read on for a list of six CBD gummies you might want to try.
