Your morning cup of joe is about to be your “best bud”

What are the benefits of CBD coffee? 

Caffeine and Cannabis are the Bonnie and Clyde of all up-and-coming coffee houses in legalized states, bringing you, your soulmate, and best bud together all in one cup. 

Whether you’re for it or against it, science hashed this out as a healthy relationship.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychotropic compound found in the cannabis plant. CBD and coffee independently offer numerous health benefits, but together as CBD-infused coffee, they work even stronger to combat various health problems. Important to note: CBD won’t make you high, but you'll still reap the benefits it has to offer, like making you more relaxed and aiding in chronic pain relief. Talk about a match made in heaven.

Here’s how a little dab of CBD in your daily coffee could benefit you:

1. Natural therapy.

General pain relief is probably the single most common reason people use CBD. However, it is also proven to be extremely effective for psychological conditions like anxiety and depression, as well as for chronic seizures/epilepsy, diabetes, migraines, neurodegenerative diseases, various cancers and more. 

2. CBD is energizing and boosts mood.

Low-dose CBD seemingly has an energizing effect. This means you can feel stimulated and awake with less overall caffeine, rather than reaching for that fifth cup by noon. Both coffee and CBD also have mood-lifting properties, proven to lessen the chance of developing depression. Combining the two will make a healthier and happier you!

3. Powerful antioxidants.

Both CBD and caffeine are superfoods. Coffee is considered the largest source of antioxidants in the Western Diet. Antioxidants protect cells and DNA from damage caused by free radicals, which supports healing and offers significant protection against aging. CBD is also a powerful antioxidant that is particularly helpful for recovery from major brain events such as trauma or stroke.

If you don’t fancy a highly caffeinated brew, you’ll be pleased to hear there is also a decaffeinated version that is infused with 60mg of CBD, as well as a lower-dose 30mg caffeinated bean. While a majority of the world is running on strong coffee in the morning anyway, why not add a little somethin’ somethin’ to make the benefits even stronger?
