The COVID-19 pandemic has, in a matter of weeks, turned the world upside down for most of us. And as we wash our hands more frequently, maintain our social distancing and keep an eye on the news as we wait for things to return to normal, it’s natural to feel a heightened sense of stress. After all, none of us has ever been through anything like this before, so feelings of uncertainty and fear, plus having our normal routines completely upended, make a perfect recipe for higher levels of stress.

Fortunately, if you’re dealing with added stress these days, CBD products from Hemp Bombs may be able to help. Relying on our premium CBD products to help you keep calm and relieve stress can be useful in these trying times. Whether you’re trying to adjust to working from home full time or you still have to report to your usual workplace, whether you’re dealing with children stuck inside with an abundance of pent-up energy or are struggling to adjust to any of the other unexpected changes to daily life you may be going through, keeping your stress levels in check can only help.

But first, it’s important to understand what CBD is and how exactly it may help you relieve stress.

What Is CBD?

CBD stands for cannabidiol, a compound that occurs naturally in hemp and marijuana plants. CBD is often confused with THC, the cannabinoid in marijuana plants responsible for producing a psychoactive “high” feeling, but CBD is not intoxicating.

How Does CBD Work?

CBD is becoming increasingly popular in the health and wellness industry due to its many reported benefits, but how exactly does this compound work? The answer lies in the endocannabinoid system, or ECS, a biological network found in every human brain. Composed of receptors, endocannabinoids, and enzymes, the ECS is thought to be responsible for regulating a variety of important bodily functions, including mood, memory, pain sensation, appetite, circadian rhythm, and more. It is also responsible for maintaining homeostasis, which is the way your body regulates proper balance and function.

The ECS interacts with endocannabinoids produced naturally within the body, and early scientific studies have shown that CBD may work similarly with your ECS. Taking premium CBD supplements from a reputable manufacturer like Hemp Bombs may be a great way for you to boost the functionality of your ECS and take advantage of a number of potential health and wellness benefits.

How Can CBD Benefit Me?

The research is ongoing, but many people are turning to CBD as a natural, plant-based supplement and users commonly report that adding CBD to their regular regimen has helped promote:

  • Stress and anxiety relief – CBD has been shown to encourage calm and peace of mind to help provide relief from occasional stress and anxiety.
  • A good night’s rest – Whether you’ve always had problems falling – or staying – asleep, or if current events have caused you to become restless at night, CBD promotes a sense of relaxation and calm throughout the body that may help you get a better night of sleep.
  • Complete comfort – Many CBD users report that this compound helps them find an overall calm, relaxed state of body and mind. If you find yourself unable to de-stress of late, CBD may help ease your mind and relax your body.
  • A balanced lifestyle – CBD may be useful in promoting positivity and an enhanced sense of well-being, so no matter how the current situation has affected your mindset, CBD may help you find a better sense of balance.

Now that you know a little bit more about CBD, how it works, and the benefits it may offer, we’ve put together a list of our top five CBD products that may help you deal with the stress of the COVID-19 pandemic:

  • CBD Pain Freeze – Like many of us, you may be taking more walks around the neighborhood to get some fresh air, sunshine, and exercise while other activities are no longer available.

Why Hemp Bombs?

No matter which of our premium CBD products you choose to help relieve stress, you can trust in the quality of every Hemp Bombs product. That’s because we maintain control over the entire manufacturing process, from plant to product, in our more than 100,000 square feet of facility space.

We source our raw CBD from premium Industrial Hemp grown by federally licensed American farmers, and our raw CBD comes with full-panel Certificates of Analysis (COAs) ensuring that it is free of residual solvents, metals, mycotoxins, and pathogens. We then manufacture our products in-house following current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs) and thoroughly lab test every CBD product we make at multiple points along the way. This includes in-process tests, final product checks, and then third-party testing by an ISO-certified lab. This rigorous testing ensures that the CBD products you buy from Hemp Bombs are safe, potent, and contain less than 0.3% THC, which makes them federally legal. For maximum transparency, we publish our lab tests directly on our website, where you can easily look up the results based on the batch number printed on your product’s label.
