Sparkling water. Caramels. Potato chips. Toothpaste. It can seem like there are a million different ways to get your CBD fix. But the truth is, the delivery method matters. Snacking on a CBD protein bar just won’t give you the same benefits as taking a tincture directly under your tongue.
But that doesn’t mean tinctures are your only option. Enter: The Mints. These CBD mints are easier and more discreet to take than a tincture—but quicker and more effective than a gummy or pill. How, you ask? Let’s dig in.
Edible forms of CBD (gummies, chocolates, capsules) have to travel through your digestive system before they hit your bloodstream. This not only means it takes more time for you to feel the effects, but it also makes the product a lot less effective, since much of the CBD gets broken down along the way.
The Mints, on the other hand, use liposomal encapsulation—a technology that mimics our cell membranes—to deliver CBD straight to your cells. Translation: Because mints dissolve in your mouth, they make it easier for your body to absorb more of the CBD, helping you feel the effects faster (more on that below).
Whether you’re gearing up for an interview or walking into a birthday party where you don’t know anyone, you don’t want to have to wait around for the CBD to kick in. Whereas it can take up to an hour to feel the effects of a gummy or capsule, you should start feeling relaxed within about 20 minutes of taking a CBD mint.
We love tinctures, but they’re not always the most convenient way to take CBD. (You’re not exactly going to break out a tincture in the middle of a happy hour meetup.) The Mints, on the other hand, look like you’re popping a breath mint. And, in fact, you are—The Mints have a pepperminty flavor that leaves your breath smelling (and feeling) fresh. But unlike Tic Tacs, CBD mints also usher in a sense of calm, helping your worries fade into the background so you can enjoy the moment.
Just throw The Mints in your pocket or bag and you’ll always have quick, easy relief right at your fingertips. No measuring out your dose. No worrying about spillage. Plus, The Mints are easy to share with a friend, should someone else need a dose of calm (or fresh breath).
As delicious as CBD gummies and chocolates can be, most of us are looking to reap the benefits of CBD, not eat a sweet treat. Whether you’re low-carb, keto, or just saving your sugar intake for ice cream and cupcakes, The Mints can be a great option. They’re sweetened with xylitol, an all-natural sweetener that has fewer calories, doesn’t spike your blood sugar, and has the added benefit of being good for your teeth (so, yeah, the opposite of sugar).
All the other ingredients in The Mints (only nine in total!) are also vegan, plant-based, and non-GMO. In other words, you’re not putting any unnecessary junk in your body—you’re just getting high-quality, full-spectrum CBD in a delicious, 100% sugar-free package.
