8 CBD Edibles to Balance Your High
Frequently overwhelmed by the strength of THC in edibles, today’s new cannabis users are turning to low-dose products, as well as to items rich in cannabidiol (CBD). A non-psychoactive compound, CBD balances the effects of THC, providing anxiety relief that takes the edge off an intense high. Adding CBD to your diet can aid sleep, boost athletic recovery and elevate your mood, allowing you to truly thrive.
Look for varying ratios of CBD and THC when buying cannabis products. A 1:1 ratio means there’s an equal amount of both cannabinoids. Some people prefer edibles with much more CBD than THC—and in the modern cannabis marketplace, there’s an option that’s right for everyone.
1. Espresso Dark Chocolate – Kiva Confections
60 mg CBD / 60 mg THC
This espresso-flavored bar is smooth and silky, with no discernible cannabis taste. Four segments contain 15 mg each of CBD and THC for your low-dose pleasure. Kiva also has a Ginger Dark Chocolate bar with 120 mg of both CBD and THC for those who need a more potent medicine.
2. Ginger Snaps – Sow Eden Organics
