Holiday Gift Guide For The Healthful Cannabis Consumer
The industry has had a glorious year, and the holiday season has only amplified it. This year, Walmart (albeit briefly) released their “weed-themed Christmas” tree — complete with fake marijuana leaves — and cannabis advent calendars are flying off the shelves.
To help navigate the plethora of recreational and medical grade products, Marjuana.com (run by WeedMaps) released its top healthful holiday picks.
Here are a few ideas (which make great stocking stuffers) for the health-conscious consumer:
Vapes: CBD Drip’s e-juice — derived from organic hemp.
Alchemy Terpene Blended Vapes — these terpene-rich cartridges are available in different dosages and flavors.
For the bookworm: Cannabis Revealed by Dr Bonnie Goldstein — a book for those looking to understand medical marijuana
For the foodies: Kushy Punch CBD edibles — these ‘medibles’ are precisely dosed and non-psychoactive.
Venice Cookie Company Not So Virgin Coconut Oil — This extremely versatile, vegan-friendly infused oil makes baking, cooking, or topping food simple.
Topicals: Honey Pot Bear Balm — voted “best topical” at 2015 Jamaica World Cup, the balm is made from organic ingredients, and can be applied to skin to soothe aching muscles, rashes, or on chapped lips.
Happy Holidaze!
