At Goodrays, we pride ourselves on our great-tasting products. With a variety of flavours available, our customers are spoiled for choice. But the taste of CBD oil isn’t for everyone – and that’s okay. For those seeking a quicker, easier and tastier way to get their daily dose in, CBD gummies might be your best bet.
WHAT IS CBD?
Cannabidiol, better known as CBD, is a natural cannabinoid found in hemp – a type of cannabis plant. Despite the widely-believed myth that CBD can get you high, this is not the case. CBD is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid, so it’s completely safe and legal to drive and operate heavy machinery after using Goodrays CBD products.
In recent years, CBD has taken the wellness scene by storm. Due to its anti-stress and anti-inflammatory properties, many are turning to CBD to support both their mental and physical health and wellbeing.
There are countless products available. CBD oils are hugely popular, as are CBD drinks and CBD gummies. Each has its benefits, but it’s often hard to figure out which product is best for you.
Whether you’re looking to fight stress, improve your sleep, or want a new way to relax and unwind, CBD gummies are a great place to start. They can seamlessly slot into any routine, so they’re ideal for those with busy lives spent on the go.
CBD GUMMIES 101
Gummies are essentially chewy sweets infused with CBD. They offer all the same benefits to your wellbeing as other CBD products, but in a convenient and tasty form. Gummies are becoming an increasingly popular way to take CBD, and here’s why:
They’re convenient. CBD gummies can be taken at any time or anywhere. You may wish to add them to your morning supplement regime, alongside oral multivitamins. Or you could take them on the go; keep them at work to help you de-stress throughout the day, or eat one as a late-night sweet treat to help you drift off to sleep.
At Goodrays, we offer a wide range of flavours. Our mixed CBD gummies include a variety of mango, raspberry, lemon-lime, and strawberry – or you could opt for just one flavour if you have a favourite. Plus, our CBD gummies are made using all-natural ingredients, they’re vegan and they’re gluten-free, so you don’t need to worry about any nasty additives.
HOW TO DOSE CBD GUMMIES
Each of our gummies is packed with 25mg of the highest quality Colorado-grown CBD. This is much more than other edible CBD products on the market, making our gummies the most effective option out there.
Gummies also offer you control over your dosage. You may wish to double dose on days you need it most. What’s more, gummies can be effective for up to 12 hours, giving them an advantage over many other forms of CBD.
One thing to keep in mind about CBD gummies, though, is you should take them with food. Research shows that CBD, when administered orally, is much better absorbed when given with a meal or snack rich in healthy fats than on an empty stomach.
As well as this, gummies tend to take a little longer to have an effect than CBD oil. This is because they need to go through the digestive system, whereas CBD oil is absorbed sublingually (under the tongue). This is something to consider when working out when to take your daily dose.
