According to Dr. Raphael Mechoulam in his renowned research on Cannabis and CBD Products, the use of CBD goes back to Ancient Syria, where people used it for all the benefits that the cannabis plant offers.
In the research mentioned above, Dr. Mechoulam says how Cannabis was also used medicinally for Queen Elizabeth to help her cope with her menstrual cycle and painful migraines.
So, how did CBD end up in chewy candies, and what are CBD Gummies?
More than likely, you know what a gummy is, so perhaps the best resource for you would be our article on, What is CBD?
Otherwise, CBD gummies are cannabis-derived, gelatin-based CBD edibles sold in many different shapes, sizes, colors, and CBD potencies. For transparency’s sake, CBD gummies are traditional gummies that are either sprayed, soaked, or infused with Cannabidiol (CBD).
CBD product manufacturers extract Cannabidiol from marijuana and hemp plants; however, the CBD potency in hemp plants is much higher than that in marijuana plants, making it the preferred and legal plant of choice.
Here is a list of the most common misspellings of CBD gummies that you will find online:
Outside of these typos, Cannabidiol gummies have also accumulated the following three aliases.
First and foremost, gummies are gummies; we’re here to clarify the similarities and differences between CBD, Hemp, and Cannabis.
Here are the facts:
In layman’s terms, CBD is a Cannabinoid, Hemp is a plant, and Cannabis is the genus name of the plant species.
CBD expert, Christopher Visser, stated that CBD and Hemp Gummies are more than likely the same product as neither CBD nor Hemp products will get you high.
In 2018, the FDA passed a bill that made CBD illegal unless the CBD came from industrial hemp plants.
Thus, the substitute use of the name “hemp” in replacement for the word “CBD” became increasingly common as CBD brands wanted to ensure that everyone knew their CBD products were Hemp-derived.
Cannabis Gummies, however, are a little trickier to understand as the word “Cannabis” is the parent name for both Marijuana plants (federally illegal) and Cannabis-Sativa plants (federally legal).
While it isn’t a fact set in stone, industry experts know that when someone says “cannabis gummies,” more often than not, they’re referring to marijuana gummies or THC gummies, and these types of products will get you high.
Besides the fact that edible hemp gummies come in different shapes, sizes, flavors, and colors like OTC candies, there are four specific types of CBD products that you must consider before purchasing.
When doing an online Google search for “CBD gummies” on May 25, 2022, we found that typically, gummies infused with CBD contain between 10mg and 25mg per gummy. According to TheHealthy.com, the ranges of CBD gummies vary from five milligrams to hundreds of milligrams.
With that said, CBD gummies, 25mg per piece, seem the most popular and the go-to standard of CBD gummy potency that CBD brands offer for daily health and wellness purposes.
Here is a body-weight based dosing guide that shows you how many CBD gummies you should take when daily health and wellness is the goal.
QUESTION: Do people turn to CBD for daily health and wellness or something direr?
In our experience, people willing to try CBD for the first time seek relief from more severe health concerns.
If this is the case for you, the above photo is NOT for you.
And here’s why.
The standard recommendation provided by the only FDA-approved CBD product, Epidolex, is 100mg of CBD per dose. Epidolex is used to treat a form of Epilepsy.
If you still are unclear on how many CBD gummies you should take, here are three great resources and advice to consider:
All cannabinoids are highly hydrophobic and lipophilic; they do not dissolve in water.
So, unless you’re consuming water-soluble CBD gummies, you should take them with fatty-rich meals, MCTs preferably.
It is best to consume CBD before a meal or with a fatty-rich meal.
CBD gets ingested and absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract.
Furthermore, according to Drugbank.com, CBD is metabolized in the liver by several cytochrome P450 isoenzymes.
Here’s why this is important:
Our Recommendation:
Eat CBD gummies when you wake up and follow it with a healthy protein and fatty-rich meal.
“If you WIN the morning, you WIN the day.” – Tim Ferriss.
Organic hemp extracts contain beneficial cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids, omegas, and fatty acids; each offering added nutritional value or support for biological functions within our body’s Endocannabinoid System.
Besides the potential wellness benefits, which we cover below, here is a list of CBD gummy benefits:
Here is a quote from the Journal of Cellular Physiology, Volume 234, Issue 6.
According to HealthEuropa.eu, CBD is believed to be a healing agent – proven to have cured Epilepsy and Depression in animals from research by Dr. Mechoulam.
People consume gummies for the same reason as other CBD products – relief from pain, stress, anxiety, sleeplessness, and other psychological issues such as Migraines. However, most studies showing the benefits of CBD were on animals, not humans.
According to Project CBD, CBD gummies have a longer-lasting effect, making them more suitable for many chronic conditions. Also, from Project CBD, in a 2019 study, there was a significant improvement in pains and moods of people without any underlying medical conditions.
Incorporating cannabidiol hemp oil gummies into your everyday routine might help support various aspects of a healthy and active lifestyle. Due to its natural interaction with our Endocannabinoid System, daily use of CBD-infused gummies could provide you with a wide range of health benefits.
Here is a shortlist of the possible health benefits might experience:
Improved stress management
Reduced discomfort and fatigue
Support for post-exercise recovery
Overall feelings of relaxation
Enhanced mental clarity and balance
Due to its calming properties and no evidence insinuating safety issues, CBD might also be beneficial for sleep support at night. While CBD might seem like the go-to cannabinoid for sleep, we recommend checking out CBN gummies.
According to a study published on the NIH (National Institutes of Health) website, CBD has so much potential for many different health issues.
In the research and medical world, “potential” cannot be misconstrued for “fact.” According to the majority of all published CBD research study conclusions, more research is needed to determine the true efficacy of CBD in order to determine, specifically, what CBD can and cannot treat.
Today, CBD is present in every imaginable product possible, specifically in the form of edibles. Here are the three most common ways to make the highest-quality cannabinoid gummies:
Gummies produced in this way incorporate one of the extraction methods into a water or oil-based adhesive concoction that will stick and dry on gummies.
This option is the most common, cost-effective, and straightforward way to spike the CBD potency of already hemp-infused gummies for an extra kick. This manufacturing option gets commonly paired with the “Tossed” option below.
Gummies tossed in CBD isolate. This name describes the method used by CBD manufacturers. This method can also be called, Tossed CBD Gummies or Rolled CBD Gummies.
Generally, these gummies get tossed in a premeasured amount of CBD isolate mixed with a few other hand-picked ingredients that stick directly to the outside of the hemp gummy.
These delicious hemp gummy delights get infused with CBD at the ingredient mixing stage. They may contain CBD oil or CBD powder within the mixture before production.
Infused gummies may have an herb or plant-like taste, often sweetened or enhanced for a more natural feel and integrity.
If you are considering making your own CBD gummies, please make sure you understand the laws and regulations in your area.
According to a bill passed in the USA, the H.R.2 – Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, AKA “Farm Bill of 2018”, only CBD products derived from industrial hemp plants that contain a THC percentage of 0.3% THC or less on a dry-weight basis are legal.
CBD derived from Marijuana plants is considered illegal at the federal level.

Product Innovations – We worked with an Herbalist to create a proprietary formula of nutraceutical botanical ingredients to enhance further the efficacy and effectiveness of our gummies that goes beyond consumer-reported benefits of CBD.
Certificate of Analysis – All products and online orders come with a third-party lab report indicating the individual cannabinoid potencies found in each CBD gummy. In addition, Full Panel Lab Testing further verifies that no heavy metals or harmful pesticides are within the final product.
