Why Every Mom Needs CBD

Why Every Mom Needs CBD

OK, moms, this one is for you!

Let’s just start by acknowledging there is nothing more rewarding than raising a happy and healthy human being. But can we also recognize that motherhood can sometimes be challenging and hard work? (And all the tired, stressed moms said, “Amen!”). 

If we’re talking to you, keep reading for our daily hack to get through the busy days, restless nights, and endless struggles to keep up with our children.

And, yes, that hack is CBD! If you’ve considered it, but haven’t tried it yet, here are some reasons why you can benefit from introducing CBD into your daily routines. 

But first, let’s get some of the concerns out of the way when it comes to CBD! 

  1. Yes, CBD comes from the same plant as THC (marijuana), but it is different. Think lemons and oranges, they’re both from a citrus plant but completely different!
  2. No, CBD does not have psychoactive effects (that “high” feeling), as THC-dominant products have.
  3. Yes, CBD is safe for daily use. However, the quality of CBD products varies greatly. It is important to know where your CBD comes from. Always look for third-party testing results (What's a COA and Why You Should Care?). 
  4. Yes, CBD is legal. Thank you, 2018 Farm Bill. (Is CBD Legal?)

Now, that’s out of the way, let’s get into the benefits moms can see from using CBD:

Stress Management

As moms, dealing with stress is a common occurrence. CBD has been shown to help provide a calming effect, which may help reduce anxiety and promote relaxation [1].

  

 

 

Improved Sleep Quality

Quality sleep is essential for moms to recharge and stay energized. CBD has been praised for its potential to improve sleep quality and duration [1]. Here’s everything you need to know about CBD and Sleep.

 

 

Pain Relief

From carrying toddlers to managing household chores, moms often experience. CBD's anti-inflammatory properties may help provide relief from chronic pain and soreness [2].

 

   

 

Enhanced Mood

Maintaining a positive mood is crucial for moms' overall well-being. CBD has been linked to mood enhancement and may help lift your spirits when you need it most [3].

 

  

 

Skin Health

CBD's anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties make it beneficial for skin health. Moms can use CBD-infused skincare products to help soothe irritation, reduce redness, and promote overall skin wellness [4]. Read more about CBD and Your Skin.

 

 

Digestive Support 

Digestive issues can be common among moms due to stress and dietary changes (meaning not actually eating a whole-balanced meal, but your kids’ leftovers!). CBD may help offer digestive support by reducing inflammation in the gut and promoting overall digestive health [5].

 

Immune System Boost

Maintaining a strong immune system is crucial, especially for busy moms. Kids seem to be germ magnets and moms can’t do anything without kids around! CBD's anti-inflammatory properties may help support immune function [6].

 

 

 

CBD may help provide numerous potential benefits supporting moms' daily lives. From stress management to immune system support, CBD may help promote overall well-being.
