The CBD industry is thriving, and is predicted to bring in around $16 billion to the United States in the next three years. With such widespread popularity, it can become difficult to sift through the array of health claims and types of products available. To get you started on the right foot, we’ve rounded up some of the most popular CBD products and their health claims.
It can first be helpful to identify the key types of CBD that you’re likely to come across in CBD product claims.
CBD Oils
A popular option due to its versatility, CBD oils can be taken on their own as a tincture or mixed into a drink if you prefer. One of the most popular brands is Charlotte’s Web, which offers a full-spectrum hemp extract combined with a carrier oil and some natural flavors. The well-known brand is US based and uses US grown hemp to create their products. Charlotte’s Web boasts CBD claims such as: Supported focus, stress relief, improved sleep quality, and a reduction of exercise-induced inflammation.
CBD for topical use
Many people prefer to apply CBD topically as a remedy for sore joints or localized muscle pain. There are many products available including lotions and salves, but one of the most recognized brands is The CBDistillery. Their CBDol Topical Salve incorporates 500mg of full spectrum CBD with other natural ingredients such as botanical extracts and essential oils. Their CBD claims also include natural farming practices and non-GMO hemp.
CBD Gummies
Gummies are a great, approachable option for people dipping their toe in the CBD pool. CBD gummies by the brand Sunday Scaries are particularly popular, perhaps because of their benefits in people struggling with depression or anxiety. Sunday Scaries’ offers CBD product claims such as a manageable 10mg dose and added vitamin B12 and D3. The gummies are also available in traditional gelatine form, or in a vegan option.
