CBD Cocktails: What Are the Best Recipes to Make at Home?
If there’s one product that has managed to seep into pop culture in just a few years, it’s cannabidiol, usually known as “CBD”.
More and more studies have been conducted and shown the positive effects cannabinoids can have on the body and how they affect the endocannabinoid system.
One of the benefits of CBD is that it doesn’t have the psychoactive effects we associate with regular cannabis use – CBD doesn’t cause hallucinations or induce a “high”, nor does it cause anxiety or paranoia.
This means we can benefit from stabilised mood, feeling more relaxed and happier or dealing with nausea whilst still being able to drive, work and do other tasks that you can’t do when you use regular cannabis.
And in more great news, CBD isn’t addictive, unlike many other products or medications that people take to relax, relieve and manage anxiety, promote sleep, etc.
At Down To Earth, we’re passionate about CBD. We’re also passionate about ensuring you have the most positive experience using our CBD products – we reckon we have the best CBD Australia has (check out all our rave reviews!). That’s why we’re getting creative with how you can enjoy our CBD products.
