Apple Cider Vinegar Powder
Apple cider vinegar has become popular in the wellness world because of its benefits for digestive health. We’ve included powdered apple cider vinegar in our CBD Gummies so that you can enjoy ACV without the harsh acidic taste.
Ashwagandha
Civilizations have been using ashwagandha for well over 2,000 years. But why? Traditionally, ashwagandha was first put to holistic use in India. The root of this South Asian herb was used for a long list of wellness benefits, which western scientists have lately begun to research. While people use it for a variety of things, we like to include it in our Calming CBD Gummies for its relaxing and de-stressing qualities.
Beetroot Powder
Those beets that make such a colorful side dish also yield a mineral-rich powder that naturally gives edibles a deep red hue and improves their flavor profile.
Chamomile
Since Roman times this Mediterranean herb has been used to help people relax. Nowadays it’s a favorite ingredient in nighttime teas and supplements to help people get ready for bedtime.
Folic Acid
This is a type of vitamin B9 that is more readily absorbed into your body than the natural form (folate). It’s important to your body because the vitamin supports the creation of DNA and the metabolism of proteins.
GABA
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a neurotransmitter that your brain produces that helps regulate mood, among other things. Many people take it in supplements to help ease everyday stress.
L-Theanine
An amino acid that naturally occurs in green and black tea, L-theanine may be what makes tea so soothing despite its caffeine content. There’s evidence that it can also help you stay focused by supporting cognitive functions.
Lemon Balm
Despite its lemony scent, lemon balm is actually a type of mint, a family of plants that have long been used for wellness purposes along with their tangy flavors. Lemon balm in particular makes a relaxing ingredient in herbal teas and supplements, much like chamomile.
Melatonin
This is a hormone that your body naturally produces to signal that it’s getting towards bedtime, and which gradually diminishes over the course of the night until it’s time to wake up. So it’s crucial for managing healthy sleep cycles.
Melatonin is also found in plants, and plant-based melatonin is used as a supplement to aid sleep. It can be especially helpful when something disrupts your normal sleep cycle, like long-distance travel.
Pomegranate Juice Powder
This powder naturally provides both a red color and a sweet, tangy flavor to foods, along with vitamins and minerals.
Valerian
Like chamomile, this flowering herb has a long history of use in the Mediterranean world as an aid to relaxation and restful sleep. Its name comes from a Latin word meaning “strength, health,” which tells you something about its reputation.
Vitamin B12
This is an important nutrient for supporting blood and nerve cells. Since it tends to be concentrated in meat and dairy foods, B12 supplements can help vegetarians and vegans make sure that they get enough of it.
