If you are anything like me then sweets and candies and chocolates are your weak point. Now I’m not proud of it or saying it is right to enjoy them to the extent that I do, but if I had to choose between mains or desserts as a last meal on earth, it would be cake all the way.
I am aware it’s the sugary goodness that is piling onto my hips and eating away at my pearly whites or the rainbow colors that seem to taste as good as they look, but as of late I have noticed a change in the way my body reacts to it all. It may be that I am reaching 40 and things are shifting into gear for the next chapter of my life, or my body has just had enough.

Most of the time the problem comes right back and usually worse than before, and the dosage you need begins to increase. It was never for me.
What am I referring to you I hear you muttering? CBD oil, CBD products, and more specifically what came to me like a tornado from my friend’s kitchen cupboard, CBD gummies.
They look like regular gummy bears and drops you’d buy at the grocery store, but with a hidden gem.
