Three More CBD Myths, Busted

Even as it’s growing in popularity and becoming more mainstream, CBD is a complex topic. That means there’s plenty of misconceptions and misinformation surrounding our favorite hemp-derived compound, so we’re on a mission to dispel all of that and debunk some CBD myths, such as... 

CBD doesn't belong in my daily supplement stack. 

Unlike many over-the-counter products and supplements, CBD isn't a "band-aid fix" that masks the symptoms; it addresses the root cause of the wellness issue you're trying to address. Because of the way CBD interacts with your body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), it can take up to 7-14 days for you to start feeling the results you're seeking.

In fact, in a 2019 CBDistillery customer survey, daily users reported feeling the effects of CBD sooner, and found their CBD use more effective, than those who used it on an as-needed basis. Consistent use ensures your body has cannabinoids on hand to help support your wellness.

CBD is only for relaxation.

While CBD definitely does offer relaxation as one of its benefits, it's not the only one! CBDistillery customers use our hemp-derived remedies for all kinds of benefits, including:

• Falling asleep faster and staying asleep longer;
• Increased focus;
• Mental clarity;
• Easing discomfort after physical activity;
• Soothing distressed skin (with our range of CBD topicals).

If you're looking to address one of the above issues, CBD might be the solution you need!

CBD is just a fad.

We hope you're sitting down for this one! While CBD has become increasingly popular over the past decade as a wellness supplement, people have been using the byproducts of the hemp plant for thousands of years. Some of its uses include rope, textiles, clothing, shoes, food, paper, bioplastics, insulation, and biofuel. Pioneering car manufacturer Henry Ford even once made an automobile made from a composite of hemp fiber and resin and marketed it under the motto: "ten times stronger than steel."
