Thank you, Social CBD, for sponsoring this post, Let's Get Social: CBD. I was selected for this opportunity by Social CBD with collaboration of Moms Meet; the content and opinions expressed here are all my own.
Unless you’ve been totally off the grid for the past few years, you’ve probably heard something about CBD at this point. I certainly have! It has generated quite the buzz in the health and wellness community, but until a year or two ago, I didn’t really know what it was or what it did.
My husband was really interested in it initially, hoping to find something to relax him in busy seasons of life and during large social events. These were his main times where he was looking for something so we could kick back and have fun, compared to him wanting to bail early in the evening. So we went out on an adventure to learn more about CBD.
Yet the more we learned and researched about CBD oil, we quickly realized that CBD was not a one-size-fits-all solution. There are different qualities out there, just like with essential oils, and we had to be careful as to what he used. We wanted a reputable brand, giving us the purest form of CBD. We also learned a ton about CBD as a whole.
Let's Discuss the Facts
First thing's first, there is some common misconceptions about CBD so I wanted to share some points that we have learned along the way, specifically around a great brand Social CBD:
- Cannabidiol, also known as CBD, is a compound that interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system. These series of receptors regulate pain, mood, the immune system, memory, appetite, stress, and other important functions.
- Unlike THC (the compound you'd find in marijuana), Social CBD's Broad Spectrum Drops do not get you high or create any psychoactive effect.
- All Social CBD products undergo extensive third party laboratory analysis to ensure maximum potency, without the risk of impurities. This is huge to ensure it is safe for you!
- Social CBD tests for 40 residual impurities, 60 pesticides, and proudly stands among the select few CBD-based products that achieve 0.0% THC. Each test result is available online and via the QR code on each box, which is so cool!
Why We Love Social CBD
We have been using Social CBD for awhile now and love all of the variation of forms of CBD from the company. Social CBD Broad Spectrum Drops come in four all-natural varieties: Unflavored, Pomegranate Tea, Meyer Lemon, and Vanilla Mint, which you can easily add into your favorite foods and drinks, or take it directly from the dropper. My husband loves using the dropper. He just holds it under his tongue for 30–60 seconds for the most effective absorption. My favorite is definitely the Vanilla Mint; it tastes good on its own and delightful in tea.
I mentioned earlier that not all CBD is created equally and CBD companies talk the talk, but only a handful actually walk the walk. I feel safe though with Social CBD. If you’re ever in doubt on their testing or products, just look to their boxes. Every box has a QR code and Batch ID. With that code, you can find the test results on their site for that specific batch of CBD. Let me repeat that—these aren’t general Social test results—these test results are unique to your product in your hand.
I notice him (and myself) being more calm during the holiday season, when you feel like you are pulling every which way and have too many things on your plate. We were able to enjoy our friends and family throughout the rush of the activities and truly felt relaxed when we had our Social CBD by our side. We also loved gel caps that they offer so we could easily have some on the go with us when we traveled.
How You Can Snag Social CBD for Yourself
CBD oil can run all over the board on cost, but I have learned that with most things, you get what you pay for. Our typical Social CBD Broad Spectrum Drops typically retails for $40 for a 375 mg bottle.
