Swagger Magazine is excited to present our latest feature taking a deep dive into everything CBD. We have sampled a wide selection of gummies, creams, cigars, skincare routines, male performance capsules, coffee, sprays, first aid, and roll-ons. You name it; we have tried it in order to bring you the best of every form of CBD imaginable. CBD has numerous health benefits to those who use it infrequently or as part of a wellness routine. CBD or cannabidiol is a molecular compound found in cannabis and hemp plants. Backed by scientific evidence, the benefits of CBD are numerous and widely renowned. CBD can relieve pain, anxiety, and depression, reduce acne and further studies are ongoing into helping to relieve symptoms of cancer and neurogenerative diseases such as Alzheimers. Research suggests that CBD modulates many physiological functions in the brain and body through the endocannabinoid system and other intrinsic mechanisms. Use CBD for health ailments and peace of mind. It is important to note if you are having any severe and recurring health problems, you should always speak with your doctor to find the root of the problem. Available to anyone now, CBD can be used safely and effectively as part of a long term treatment plan discussed with your doctor or your own at home natural wellness strategy. Read along for Swaggers top picks and information on CBD products to try.

You may find it nearly impossible to navigate the winding labyrinth of online information about CBD. Early research on the cannabis-derived substance points to a range of possible benefits. But some CBD disciples and unscrupulous companies twist this information into wild claims.From CBD oil tinctures and vape juices to drinks and snacks, its challenging to figure out where to start. To make matters worse, there are thousands of brands vying for your attention.But were going to make this easy for you. Start with these 300 mg CBD gummies from cbdMD perfect for beginners and experts.

There are endless CBD products to choose from, and many provide incredible wellness support. But gummies represent an easy and most pleasant way to start your CBD journey. Theyre convenient, they allow for adjustable serving sizes, and they make taking CBD a far more enjoyable experience than other methods. For instance, some of the biggest complaints consumers make about CBD oil tinctures center around undesirable flavors and oily consistency.But who doesnt like deliciously sweet gummies? cbdMDs CBD gummies are a favorite among CBD enthusiasts. They recently won the award for Best CBD Gummies in a poll of the largest CBD users group on Facebook.Its also worth mentioning that cbdMD offers CBD-infused gummies, while many other companies simply apply a CBD coating. Thats a crucial distinction since the CBD crystals can fall off of coated products.

CBD, short for cannabidiol, comes from various species and strains of cannabis. Its typically most abundant in hemp strains of Cannabis Sativa L.Not to be confused with marijuana, which is still illegal in the United States, hemp is legally defined as cannabis that contains 0.3 percent THC or less. THC is the compound in marijuana that causes its intoxicating effects.CBD is non-psychoactive and does not cause impairment.While many people tout CBD as a wonder in the everyday wellness space, its best to think of CBD as a way to support a healthy lifestyle as opposed to a cure-all for a wide range of health concerns. For instance, you wouldnt expect to experience muscle gains by taking protein supplements, but never working out and eating junk food. So if you follow a smart diet, exercise regularly, and engage in healthy sleep routines, youll get the most out of your CBD experience.Most experts also suggest a low and slow method for starting CBD. To find the correct serving for your individual needs, start with a small amount of CBD daily, then increase the serving size until you see optimal results.

cbdMD truly stands out among all of the other options out there.For one, their prices rank among the best in the industry, and many pro athletes have stepped forward to endorse cbdMD. But more importantly, theyre also committed to superior quality and safety. cbdMD has recently discovered it is one of only two CBD companies out there that have achieved independent registration for good manufacturing practices (GMP) through NSF International.And while that may sound like a bunch of industry nonsense, its incredibly important. It means that cbdMD meets or exceeds all federal GMP standards for dietary supplements, and they can prove it. Currently, thats a rare achievement in the CBD industry.

While adverse reactions to CBD are not commonly reported, its smart to speak with your doctor before using any wellness supplement. Its especially important to speak with a physician if you have underlying health problems or take prescription medication.

In botany, a calyx [kay-liks, noun] is the sepals of a flower forming a whorl that encloses the petals and creates a protective layer around a flower in the bud. We see a connection between the purpose of a calyx and the properties of the cannabidiol (CBD) molecule. At Calyx Wellness, they capture the essence of these qualities by doing the same for their community, being a trusted provider of hemp-derived CBD infused products that have been developed to harvest, maintain and protect good health. In paying homage to wellness, Calyx believes in the protection of wellness itself.

This application method provides convenient, on-the-go dosing with 6mg per spray, also providing flexibility to get a precise read on what dosage works for their unique body chemistry and bio-availability. CBD works within your endocannabinoid system to encourage homeostasis within the body, making it an effective natural treatment for a wide variety of ailments: mental health, pain management, and digestive safekeeping. CBD is a natural potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and neuroprotectant. This is holistic self-care, maintenance, and regeneration.

Wellness lives in the Calyx community. It is a complex and multilayered experience. There are dimensions to wellness social, emotional, spiritual, environmental, intellectual, and physical. Calyx believes hemp and CBD can touch upon all of these areas. Calyx Wellness consistently aims to be a channel for funneling the versatile benefits of hemp to our consumer circle. Amazing things are happening here, and Calyx wants to invite everyone to join in becoming part of it.

Joe Daddy Burt Burton was a leading Kentucky hemp farmer in the 1930s and 40s. He also ran a barge on the Kentucky River from Madison County to Woodford County, moving his and other farmers harvested hemp for processing near Versailles. Known for never cutting corners and always doing it right, Daddy Burt wascommissionedby the Governor of Kentucky to increase his operations and assist Kentucky farmers in growing hemp during the World War II Hemp for Victory campaign of 1942.

To continue his great-grandfathers legacy, Bob Estes founded Daddy Burt Hemp Co. in the Bluegrass State. It is of great importance that our products are derived from hemp grown in the sunshine of Kentucky, Estes said. The healing and wellness comments from our customers is gratifying to me personally. Bob Estes gives accolades to the Kentucky Department of Agriculture for initiating Kentuckys hemp program. Farmers from other states are coming into Kentucky to model our craft of cutting-edge genetics, cultivation, innovative harvesting, and rigorous product quality control program.

The voluntary certification program demonstrates a commitment to working with Congress, regulatory agencies, and law enforcement at a time when the Food and Drug Administration continues its evaluation of how
to handle hemp products.

Bob Estes is excited tocarry onhis great-grandfathers legacy of hemp production in a new era and to be on the front of the industry. Central Kentucky is the center of unprecedented growth in farming and manufacturing for this revived crop, he said. I believe Daddy Burt would be pleased with the quality we are producing. With great respect to Joe Daddy Burt Burton, Daddy Burt Hemp Co. stands committed to offer products of superior quality by never cutting corners and always doing it right.

At Swagger, we recommend you try the Daddy Burt Hemp Co Rejuvenating Lotion and Muscle and Joint Cream. Their smooth non-greasy and effective formulas make this company our choice for topical applications of CBD.

Acme 420 was created in 2009 by Andy Scheer and their family. Andy Scheer, the creator of the Magar (the Original Cannagar / Marijuana Cigar), was asked to produce Magars to be sold to the public when it became legal in Colorado to do so. Up till then, since 1973, the Magars were made and given as gifts only to close family and friends. By 2010 Acme 420 was producing Magars for sale to Medical Marijuana Patients at Lincoln Herbal Dispensary in Denver. Acme 420 snowballed by 2012. Magars were in dispensaries all over the state in approximately 100 locations. Speed forward to 2018, Acme 420 had created the fully legal Hemp Cigar version of the Magar under the name of Hegar through their sister company Acme Hemp Labs.

Acme Hemp Labs hemp cigars are 100% hemp-based cigars, meaning they are not a blunt, and they are not a wrap; they are also NOT a palm leaf knock off. Hegars are completely wrapped fully with hemp leaf around high CBD hemp flower, reaching up to 24%~. Hegars have gained a vast internet response and testimonials over the last couple of years. Testimonials like Cari Carmona from High Times saying this about Acme Hemp Labs Hegar:

thanks again for the Hemp Cigar! It was so great, and you wouldnt be able to tell the difference honestly if no one told you it wasnt THC. Wow-what an amazing product you have

Acme Hemp Labs has created a unique opportunity to socialize and medicate.
