We’re already well into 2023, but that’s no reason to give up on the mental and physical health goals you set for yourself at the beginning of the year. In fact, it’s a great idea to check back in with yourself now that it’s been a few months since you set those New Year’s resolutions.
To provide some encouragement to stay on track — or to help you hop back on the wagon, if necessary — we asked our resident health expert Nick Cannady to explain why adding CBD to your routine in 2023 can be a great wellness strategy.
Top 5 Reasons To Add CBD To Your Daily Routine
Our countdown is in order from least to most impactful, taking into account the benefits most users can expect from starting CBD.
5. CBD can complement your fitness-related goals.
“CBD is one of the most powerful anti-inflammatory compounds found in nature,” Nick says. “And so many people use it to combat post-workout soreness and inflammation.”
This strategy decreases the recovery time you need between exercise sessions, which means you can go harder and reach your fitness goals faster.
4. CBD will help reduce your anxiety.
One of the primary benefits of CBD is that it can ease anxious feelings and promote a soothing calm instead. This is great for anyone, of course, but someone who has been struggling with chronic or severe anxiety can especially benefit from trying CBD.
Nick explains, “There’s no potential for addiction with CBD, and you’re not going to have the same drug interactions you might with a prescription anti-anxiety medication. It really just helps people get through the day in a safe, soothing way.”
3. CBD is incredibly helpful for soothing chronic pain.
Lingering, chronic pain can be debilitating for people who can’t find relief, and prescription pain medications have so much potential for addiction and other problems that many pain patients want to stay away from these drugs as long as they can possibly stand it.
“CBD could be a great solution for many of these people,” Nick suggests. “It’s especially powerful at soothing pain related to inflammatory conditions. And while we can’t cure any medical conditions with CBD, we have several customers who use it for arthritis, irritable bowel disease, Crohn’s, ulcerative colitis, and other chronic pain or inflammation.”
2. CBD will help to improve your sleep.
“There’s no better time to start getting consistent, restful sleep than right now,” Nick says. “Bad sleep is such a pervasive problem in our society, and it’s not something that medicine is particularly good at treating.”
This is another area where CBD could offer relief for people wishing to alleviate their problems without turning to heavy-handed prescription drugs with numerous side effects, addictive qualities, and drug interactions.
“CBD won’t have any of those negative effects you associate with sleeping medications. Other than perhaps some drowsiness — but that’s kind of the point!”
1. You can restore your body to its naturally balanced state with CBD.
“The number one reason for adding CBD to your routine is to promote your overall health and well-being.”
CBD doesn’t just affect one factor or another, like many prescription drugs or even other natural supplements. CBD works within your endocannabinoid system to restore health and balance to your whole body.
“CBD doesn’t influence the body to do anything it wouldn’t naturally do,” Nick explains. “All CBD does is help to restore homeostasis. If something is out of balance, CBD can help to restore that balance and bring everything back toward its optimal state.”
He continues, “It almost doesn’t matter what ailment or lingering issue you’re having with your body. There’s a chance that, in some form or fashion, CBD can help you feel better. And that applies to everyone.”
Looking for the perfect CBD product for daily use?
While Butler Hemp Co. offers a range of products for different circumstances — the Sleep Blend is a great choice for nighttime routines, and the Freeze roll-on is perfect for on-the-go pain relief, for example — Nick says the product that will check all the boxes at once is the Extra Strength Full Spectrum oil.
He does warn, however, that users who will face a drug test should choose a THC-Free formula rather than a full-spectrum blend.
