CBD oil gained a LOT of momentum recently and for a good reason.
Research shows that it has a wide array of health benefits – from pain relief to fighting inflammation and mood improvement.
With such big promises, it definitely sparked my interest and made me dig deeper into the topic.
It didn’t take long until we ordered our first bottle and 6 months later I want to share my CBD oil experience with you.
Of course, as with most supplements on the market, you better do your research first and make sure you get the highest quality product you can with the least amount of filler ingredients.
But let me give you some more information first.
What is CBD?
Cannabidiol (better known as CBD) is one of the over 100 cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant.
Is CBD psychoactive?
Unlike Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is the main psychoactive cannabinoid found in the plant (which makes you feel “high”), CBD isn’t psychoactive.
How is CBD oil made?
It’s made by extracting CBD from the cannabis plant and diluting it with a carrier oil like coconut or hemp seed oil.
My CBD Oil Experience
CBD oil and sleep
I’ve never been great with sleep so, naturally, the promise of improved sleep quality was the biggest selling point for me.
It would usually take me forever to fall asleep (sometimes hours) and once I did, it would be a very light sleep and I would wake up from the smallest disturbance.
After all, I read about CBD oil my hopes were running high and fortunately I was not disappointed.
I believe it took me just a few nights to notice that not only was I falling asleep much faster and easier, but I also slept deeper.
I would sleep for the same amount of hours but wake up fresher and more rested than before.
Getting good quality sleep on a regular basis leads to better concentration, more energy throughout the day, stable hormone balance, less junk food cravings, and faster (athletic) recovery.
I experienced all that first-hand and it’s no exaggeration to say that it’s truly life-changing.
In fact, Rafael and I were so happy with it, that we actually supplied both of our families with a bottle of CBD oil.
They all had a similar CBD oil experience – deeper and more restful sleep.

CBD oil and recovery
In all honesty, I can’t really testify to how big of a change CBD oil made on its own regarding athletic recovery.
It’s hard to judge the contribution factor given that recovery has rapidly climbed up the importance ladder for me and I’ve made quite a few changes in my routines.
But related to my previous point – just the fact that I sleep so much better now thanks to it, made one of the biggest differences in my energy levels and overall well-being.
As for Rafael, he is firm of the opinion that since taking CBD oil he is recovering faster.

CBD oil and anxiety/stress
Having a peaceful mind is priceless, especially in today’s world. It seems like almost everyone I talk to now experiences anxiety (since anxiety comes in many shapes and forms) at one point or another.
I include myself here.
Nothing worse than a constant stream of worry-filled thoughts that either don’t let you fall asleep or just frustrate you to the point that you can’t do anything productive anymore.
Now, managing and dealing with stress and anxiety is a VERY extensive topic and there are SO many ways to tackle it,
I wrote more about it HERE.
But to be specific and stay on topic – CBD oil definitely helped me get rid of irrational thinking patterns and reduce all the negative effects of stress.

Final thoughts
I think by now it’s clear that I would wholeheartedly recommend JIBE CBD.
We started out with a German CDB oil company but switched and have been using it for a little over 6 months now and loved it so much that we even got our parents and siblings using it.

If you are still not convinced if you should give CBD oil a try, ask yourself this:

If you answered any of the above questions with YES, then CBD oil might be just the solution you’re looking for.
