Smell (Irrelevant to effects)
Opening this bottle of Comfort Leaf Comfort CBD Gummies (300mg) delivers a sudden rush of that sweet and tangy smell that many know and love. The smell, which is a tad more sour than sweet, instantly makes your mouth water in anticipation. Think of the smell of fresh squeezed lemonade on a hot day.
Taste (Irrelevant to effects)
These gummies taste like upgraded sour gummy worms. They feature the same sweet, powdery coating and sweet and tangy core as the corner store favorite. The bottle contains a range of assorted flavors, and nearly all of them mask the hempy flavor of the CBD entirely. Only the yellow gummy seemed to have any remnants of the hemp taste, but it was still pleasantly delicious among the tangy, citrusy flavor of the gummy itself. There’s no aftertaste, either so these gummies would be great for those who dislike the hempy taste of some CBD products.
Consistency
Although they are much like gas station gummy worms by taste, the texture far outweighs any competition. These gummies offer a chewy texture that can be described as “pillowy” and “delicate.” The delicious treat nearly dissolves in your mouth, goes down smooth, and leaves you eager for another.
Effects (Onset, Duration, Intensity)
These edible doses contain 10 mg of CBD each, and we started with only one gummy. Like most edible products, these were slow to kick in. After about 45 minutes, the supplement began to take effect, and it took a little over an hour for them to reach what seemed to be their “full intensity.” At first, the effects were mild, with a calming, almost euphoric effect that kicked in soon after. We noticed a prominent effect on stiff, swollen, sore muscles, which seemed to loosen soon after the effects peaked.
Upping the dose to two gummies had a similar onset, but offered a range of other effects. A 20-milligram dose of these delicious gummy bears provided relief from general anxiety all day long. Further, they seemed to have a positive, uplifting effect on overall mood. A two-gummy dose produced effects that lasted about 8 hours, which means there was no need to dose again throughout the day.
Best used for
These gummies don’t contain any targeted essential oils or other ingredients so they may be useful for managing any condition that responds to cannabidiol. According to research, the potential benefits are vast. Several studies have worked to identify the way CBD interacts with neuro-receptors to block signals of pain or reduce inflammation. Other research shows that Cannabidiol may house a range of potential benefits for neurological disorders, like managing the symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease or working as an antiepileptic medication.
Many people choose gummies for treating pain, like neuropathic pain, because the effects of edible products are often longer-lived than other CBD consumption methods. Further research shows that regular CBD doses may be useful for managing anxiety, and a few studies even highlight prominent effects against PTSD and concurring symptoms. These gummies make for a quick dosing option with lengthy effects that may be useful for any person who benefits from CBD.
