Be.ful CBD Bath Bombs | Take Your Relaxation To The Next Level!


We all know that taking a nice hot bath is a great way to unwind and destress, but add some CBD bath bombs into the mix and you've just taken total relaxation to a whole other level!

I recently tested out Be.ful CBD infused bath bombs. Each bomb contains up to 50mg of active CBD compound, made with full spectrum CBD. They are also non-GMO, Paraben-free, Vegan, and cruelty-free.

The 4 pack of bath bombs include Eucalyptus, Lavender, Vanilla, and Peach.

This is the first time that I've accepted bath bombs to test for review consideration. That's because I've never liked the ingredients in most bath bombs. I find that a lot of them contain cheap, toxic and often harmful chemicals that I'm not comfortable using in my bath. After reading the ingredient list for Be.ful CBD bath bombs, I finally found a bath bomb that I felt comfortable using! These bombs are clean! Nothing toxic about them.


From Be.ful:

What is CBD (CANNABIDIOL)?

Cannabidiol (CBD) is a cannabinoid, one of hundreds of chemical compounds found on both marijuana plants and hemp plants, which has shown potential for having benefits ranging from pain relief to epilepsy treatment. Unlike THC, which is known for its psychoactive nature, CBD doesn't get you high. 


CBD is being used medicinally for:

  • Relieving stress
  • Anxiety and depression
  • Reducing chronic pain
  • Preventing diabetes
  • Balanced blood pressure
  • Reducing acne
  • Fighting epilepsy & MS
  • Increasing heart health
  • Reducing depression
  • Sleep disorders
  • Mental wellness
  • Inflammation
  • Fighting obesity
  • Reducing cancer risk

Be.ful's CBD Infused Bath Bombs use premium aromatics, and a proprietary blend of natural oils and herbs, they harness the relaxation powers of, Lavender, Eucalyptus, Vanilla and Jasmine.



INGREDIENTS:

1. Each bath bomb is infused with up to 50mg of CBD

2. Fragrances from Essential Oils - All Natural ingredients - Eucalyptus, Lavender, Vanilla, Peach

3. Base Ingredients before Fragrance:
Sodium Bicarbonate
Citric Acid
Zea Mays (Corn) Starch
Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil
Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Oil
Magnesium Sulfate
Cannabidiol (CBD)
Water (Aqua/Eau)

I found that I only needed 1/2 a bomb for each bath to get the relaxation that was right for me, so I broke the bombs into smaller pieces and used them that way. This also makes them more affordable. 😊

The scents of the bath bombs are divine. The only one that I wasn't a fan of was the eucalyptus, but that's just a personal preference. After using the bath bombs, I not only left each bath feeling more relaxed and refreshed, but I found the oils in the bomb very hydrating, so I didn't even have to moisturize after my bath. I'm so thrilled to have finally found bath bombs that contain ingredients that I'm comfortable using in my bath!

Each bath bomb kit contains 4 bath bombs. Currently, they are on sale for $39.99.

Flora 4-Stress Herbal Supplement Review | #trynatural


Flora 4-Stress 60 Capsules

I was thrilled when I received Flora's 4-Stress herbal supplement from Social Nature! Who couldn't use a little stress support these days!?

This is a really effective composition for stress relief. I am big on supplements and I have been taking Rhodiola, one of the main ingredients in this supplement for years. I can be reactive and sensitive to many herbs and supplements so I pay close attention when I try something new.

I have tried many different compositions for stress and sleep and many didn't work or caused adverse effects. It's a matter of finding the right mix of herbs that works for you. I feel lucky as this mix of herbs agrees with me completely. I noticed a difference in the way I felt after the first dose. I didn't feel sleepy or groggy, I just felt more relaxed overall, and I didn't have any adverse effects at all.

I only take one capsule a day as I already know that 100 mg of Rhodiola a day is the right dose for me, and that is the dose in just one of these capsules. I found that I slept better overall and felt more relaxed during the day. This turned out to be the right mix of herbs for me.

Highlights
  • Helps to temporarily relieve the symptoms of stress
  • Supports cognitive health, mental focus and working memory
  • Helps relieve mental fatigue and the sensation of weakness
  • Assists in maintaining a healthy immune system
  • Aids digestion in cases of stress
  • Recyclable amber glass bottle

Rhoziva | The Benefits of Rhodiola

Rhoziva


Most people that know me or my blog know that I'm really into health products. I follow Canadian makers of the health supplement Rhoziva on Twitter. They are some generous folks, I'll tell you. I wound up being "fan of the month" for June, and they sent me a beautiful box full of health and beauty goodies. Included in my package was their Rhoziva supplement that contains the adaptogenic herb, Rhodiola, as well as other beneficial vitamins and minerals.

I have been a strong believer and user of the herb Rhodiola (rhodiola rosea), the main ingredient in their Rhoziva supplement, for years now. Rhodiola is an adaptogen. Adaptogens help our bodies deal with (adapt) to stressors.

Dr. Axe on Rhodiola:
"Rhodiola rosea contains a phytochemical known as salisdroside. This component helps relieve anxiety and combat aging. Rhodiola suppresses the production of cortisol and increases levels of stress-resistant proteins."

Rhoziva Blister Packs


I like that Rhoziva comes in blister packs so they are perfect to take with you on-the-go or for travel.

What is Rhoziva: 
" Rhoziva is a proprietary herbal blend utilizing the powerful Rhodiola Rosea root that has been proven to fight fatigue, promote mental focus and clarity, enhance memory, increase physical endurance during periods of physical exertion and help support physical and mental stamina during times of increased stress."

You can find much more info on Rhodiola on Rhoziva's website (linked here) or on the web.

Reported Benefits:
  • Energy
  • Reduces stress and anxiety
  • Prevents fatigue
  • Increases stamina
  • Boosts physical energy
  • Improves mood and well-being
  • Increases memory and focus
  • Improves athletic performance
  • Promotes physical recovery
  • Cortisol reduction
  • Normalizes stress hormones
These are just some of the benefits of this wonder herb.

Ingredients: 
Per capsule:
100 mg Rhodiola Rosea root (extract) (3% Total Rosavins)
Other Active ingredients include: Salidroside, Tyrosol, Rosiridin, Kaempferol, Gallic acid and Cinnamic acid.
3.6 AT [8IU] Vitamin E (dl-alpha-tocopheryl acetate)
5 mcg [200IU] Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol)
12.5 mg Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic acid)
2.5 mg Pyridoxine (Pyridoxine hydrochloride)
2.5 mcg Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin)
7.5 mg Zinc (Zinc oxide)
37.5 mg Magnesium (Magnesium glycinate)
100 mcg Folic Acid (Folate)

100% Vegetarian, gluten free, and no artificial flavours or colours.


Suggested Usage: Adults (age 18+): take one capsule in the morning and one in the early afternoon, OR take two capsules in the morning. For best results, take 20 to 30 minutes before breakfast or lunch. If you take it past the first half of your day, you find yourself too over-energized before bedtime. Store in a cool, dry place.
Warnings: Consult a healthcare practitioner prior to use. Do not use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. For periodic use only. Consult a health care practitioner regarding use beyond 4 consecutive months. Store away from children.

My Experience:
The main benefits that I have noticed from my use of Rhodiola are stress reduction, regulation of  my menstrual cycle, and help with insomnia (specifically, preventing early morning awakenings).

I think this supplement can benefit most people, and it's good for so many ailments. Even those just needing some extra stamina in this world that seems to be on constant hyper-speed could benefit.

If you are interested in trying Rhoziva, it retails for $34.99 for 60 capsules. You can purchase it on their website linked here or at many health food retailers.

Rhoziva is formulated in Canada by Nanton Nutraceuticals, and their products go through stringent testing before going to market.

Thank you again to the super-generous folks at Rhoziva/ Nanton Nutraceuticals. If you're not following them on Twitter, you should consider it... You could become their next fan of the month!

You can find more information on Rhoziva's website.

Note: Remember to always check with your Doctor before beginning any new supplements.
