So, CBD and caffeine. At first blush, the combo may seem unnatural, like Kim Kardashian dating Pete Davidson (they’ll probably be broken up by the time you read this anyway!)...but it’s actually not a weird idea at all. Here’s why.
Caffeine: Friend or Foe?
Fans of caffeinated tea and coffee have several reasons to enjoy a few cups every day. Moderate consumption of caffeine has several well-documented short-term benefits, including:
For many, coffee’s aroma is so appealing that just smelling it provides a feeling of calm and reduces stress. Even people who don’t like how coffee tastes often say that they enjoy the aroma. That’s one powerful whiff!
However, as most everyone knows, caffeine’s downside is that depending on your body chemistry and other factors, after one, two or more cups, you can start to feel jittery and anxious. That’s where CBD comes in!
CBD Can Be Caffeine’s New BFF
Adding CBD to your daily cups of tea or coffee can actually help counter the negative effects of caffeine. The all-natural properties of CBD that help you feel calm and relaxed can have the same effect on caffeine. Think of it as a mellower, more laidback side of caffeine. You can still enjoy the benefits of your favorite cuppa tea or joe, but turn down the volume on those jitters. It’s like telling caffeine to use its inside voice!
When you think about it, the combo of CBD and caffeine can really be a twofer: you get the benefits of caffeine while reducing the downside, and at the same time you get all the good stuff that CBD has to offer. We offer several ways for you to incorporate this dynamic duo into your day.
1. CBD Teas. We offer several caffeinated teas that contain various levels of CBD. Choose the flavor and CBD level you want!
3. CBD Tinctures. Finally, you can add CBD to any of your favorite caffeinated beverages, including soft drinks, with a few drops of CBD tincture. Choose from 1200mg or 3600mg to adjust the CBD to your perfect level. These full-spectrum tinctures are virtually aroma-free and flavorless, making them perfect to add to the beverage of your choice without affecting the flavor.
As always, if you have a history of high blood pressure, are pregnant or have other medical concerns, consult with a physician before incorporating caffeine or CBD into your diet.
