Assortment of CBD Chews
You may be busy, but you don’t have to be stressed. No matter how packed your schedule is with work, hobbies, and shuttling kids around, you can stay calm.
Of course, that’s easier said than done. If you don’t have time for a relaxation session every time you feel your blood pressure rising, consider stress-relieving supplements like CBD. But while CBD is a great way to manage anxiety, not all CBD products are as portable or long-lasting as on-the-go consumers need them to be.
If you’re looking for the right CBD snack for your busy lifestyle, try:
1. Gummies
CBD gummies are a great option for on-the-go relief. Their size allows them to be taken quickly and discreetly. Plus, those made with real fruit can deliver the CBD you want without blowing your diet’s carb or fat budget.
A common problem you can run into with gummies is with dosing. Beware that some gummies pack a large serving into a single chew, making it difficult to control exactly how much you’re getting. Our CBD gummies deliver a 25mg dose in each serving, or about six chews, making it far easier to manage your intake.
2. Chocolate bars
Sometimes it’s fun to splurge with your CBD snack. CBD-infused chocolate bars are a good way to get the dosage you want while also enjoying your treat. Just remember that chocolate contains caffeine, which can be too stimulating for some users.
The strong flavor of dark chocolate is particularly good at masking the flavor of the CBD it contains. You can also break up your CBD chocolate bars and mix them into yogurt, cereal, or fruit if you’re looking to liven up a snack. Chocolate bars’ versatility makes them a valuable part of your CBD arsenal, but they may melt in the summer heat.
3. Almonds
Given their high levels of fiber, protein, antioxidants, and vitamin E, Almonds are the ultimate health snack. When infused with CBD, they’re a guilt-free way to relax while traveling or on the way to work.
If you’re looking for something a little different, several companies offer products like salted caramel or dark chocolate CBD almonds for a more gourmet snack experience. Almonds are also easily combined with other foods, making them an ideal choice for a CBD-infused trail mix.
4. Dried fruit
Dried fruit is healthy, easily transportable, and has a natural sweetness that combines well with the flavor of CBD. Dried fruit also has a long shelf life — up to a year when stored at room temperature — that makes it ideal for once-in-a-blue-moon consumption.
We think tropical fruits like pineapples, mangoes, papayas, and coconuts are especially good flavor pairings with CBD. Although citrus flavors are another strong choice, avoid grapefruit, which interacts with many drugs.
5. Granola
CBD-infused granola can mean a lot of different things. Some companies add CBD to the granola clusters, while others pump it into secondary ingredients like almonds or chocolate. You can also make your own CBD granola by taking normal granola and combining it with a topping like CBD-infused peanut butter or honey.
One advantage of granola is that it’s a chameleon food: You can take it along on a hike as a serenity-inducing snack, or you could have it for breakfast. There’s nothing wrong with packing CBD granola in your lunchbox or eating it as a late-night bite, either.
6. Protein bars
The marketing for protein bars is growing, and it’s easy to see why. With a hectic and unpredictable schedule, it’s not always easy to sit down and get a full meal when you need one. Protein bars are filling and have the macronutrients you need. Their dense composition covers CBD right up and makes it easier for your body to absorb.
Taking CBD on an empty stomach might mean you feel the effects sooner, but it also makes your consumption less efficient. Ingesting CBD with a hearty dose of protein, plus some fats and carbs for good measure, satisfies your appetite and maximizes the effects.
Living an active lifestyle can be a double-edged sword. The benefits of getting a lot done don’t always outweigh the stresses of never having time to relax. Portable CBD snacks can help counter that anxiety without making you sacrifice your schedule in the process.
