  • The Best CBD Products for Disc Golfers

    Disc golf is a sport that combines physical skill with mental focus. While it's a fun and engaging activity, it can also be physically demanding and mentally taxing. Many disc golfers are turning to CBD products as an alternative way to support their game. Let’s explore why CBD products are a great fit for disc golf enthusiasts and highlight three of our products that are particularly beneficial. Why Disc Golfers Use CBD Products Physical Support: Disc golf involves a lot of walking, throwing, and, depending on the course, hiking through courses. This can lead to muscle fatigue and joint discomfort. CBD products like CBD balms, CBD creams, and CBD lotions are popular choices. Mental Focus: The game of disc golf requires concentration and mental clarity. There are a variety of CBD products that disc golfers may use such as CBD oils, water soluble nano-CBD, and CBD gummies. Recovery: After a long day on the course, recovery is key. CBD products such as CBD topicals, CBD oils, and nano-CBD are used by some as a part of their post-game routine. Top CBD Products for Disc Golfers CannaRelief: Convenience On the Course Our CannaRelief Pain Relieving Balm comes in a mess-free twist-up tube, making it incredibly easy to carry in your disc golf bag and apply while on the move. This CBD balm is designed for hassle-free use during disc golf rounds. Simply apply it to areas of discomfort before, during, or after your game. Its portable design means it fits easily in your disc golf bag. Daily Support CBD Chewables: Consistent Wellness These CBD chewables are formulated for daily use, helping you maintain a consistent wellness routine. Incorporate these chewables into your daily routine for ongoing support when off the course. Their great taste and ease of use make the chewables a favorite among active individuals like disc golfers. Water Soluble CBD Packets: Quick and Efficient Designed for high bioavailability, these water soluble nano-CBD packets are perfect for quick use when on the course. The water soluble CBD easily dissolves in liquids, making the nano packets an ideal on-the-go option for disc golfers. Mix a packet with your liquid of choice during the game for a convenient and efficient option. CBD Products for Disc Golfers For disc golfers looking for wellness support in their sport, CBD products offer a versatile and convenient option. Whether it's the ease of CannaRelief Pain Relieving Balm, the consistent support from our Daily Support CBD Chewables, or the quick efficiency of our Water Soluble packets, there’s a product to fit every need. Remember, the best way to determine what works for you is to try different methods and see how your body responds.

  • How to Use your CannaRelief Pain Relieving Balm

    Congratulations on the purchase of your new CannaRelief! Whether you're a first-time user or simply want to ensure you're getting the most out of your CBD topical, we're here to guide you through the best way to use your new pain relieving balm. Follow the steps below to experience the maximum benefits of your CannaRelief. Unboxing and Initial Inspection First things first – once you receive your CannaRelief, inspect the packaging to ensure it arrived in perfect condition. Our robust packaging ensures that your product reaches you in its best form. Getting Started To begin, simply take off the cap of the CannaRelief tube. This will reveal the balm inside. Twist and Apply Gently twist the bottom of the tube to expose a small portion of the stick. You don't need too much—just enough to liberally coat the area you want to target. Massage the Balm The CannaRelief balm is designed to warm up with the natural heat of your skin, making it easier to spread. Gently massage the balm onto your skin for about 10-30 seconds. Don't rush; allow the product to be fully absorbed by giving it a good rub. Let it Settle You might notice that the balm feels slightly greasy when you first apply it. Don't fret! This sensation is perfectly normal. The balm is formulated to absorb into your skin, and within about 15 minutes, that initial greasiness will disappear, leaving behind only comfort. Reapply As Needed Every individual is unique, and so is their need for relief. Depending on your requirements, you may need to reapply the CannaRelief balm multiple times throughout the day. Listen to your body and give it the relief it seeks. Extra Tips & Notes: Worry-Free Formula: One of the most outstanding features of our CannaRelief is that it's formulated with all-natural ingredients. This not only ensures its safety and efficacy but also means it won't stain your clothes. So, go ahead and apply it anytime and anywhere it is needed. Storage: For best results, store your CannaRelief in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Forgot it in your car during the heat? Leave the tube at room temperature and the stick will re-harden. We hope this guide helps you make the most out of your CannaRelief experience. Here's to finding relief, naturally!

  • How to Use CBD Topicals

    What are CBD Topicals? CBD topicals, encompassing products such as CBD balms, CBD creams, and CBD lotions, are designed for direct application to the skin. By applying these products directly to specific areas, users can achieve localized relief and attention to particular needs. Topicals often include other beneficial ingredients like menthol, salicylic acid, and allantoin, enhancing their effectiveness. How do CBD Topicals Work? When applied topically, CBD works by interacting with the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), which plays a crucial role in regulating various bodily functions, including pain sensation, immune response, and skin health. Unlike oral CBD products, topicals are designed for external application, offering a more focused approach. Upon application, CBD topicals penetrate the skin, reaching the ECS receptors located in the skin's subcutaneous layers. These receptors respond to the CBD, stimulating the ECS to work more efficiently. CBD Topical Uses CBD topicals have become increasingly popular due to their versatility in addressing a variety of physical concerns. They are commonly applied to areas such as the back, knees, neck, shoulders, and ankles, where they can provide targeted relief. This localized application makes them popularly used for managing discomfort from muscle soreness and joint pain. In addition to addressing muscle and joint concerns, CBD topicals are also used for troubled skin conditions. It is recommended to incorporate CBD topicals into your daily routine, not only for immediate relief when needed but also as a preventative measure. Regular use can help maintain skin health and comfort, reducing the likelihood of flare-ups in conditions like eczema and psoriasis, and keeping muscles and joints less prone to discomfort. Directions for Applying CBD Topicals Apply your CBD balm, CBD cream, or CBD lotion directly to the desired area, such as the back, knees, neck, shoulder, or ankle. Gently work the balm into your skin, which will aid in absorption and increase effectiveness. Apply a sufficient amount of your CBD topical to cover the area, adjusting based on your specific needs. CBD Topical Products Incorporating CBD topicals into your wellness routine is effortless with the premium range from Carolina Cannabis Creations. Our products are specifically designed to cater to a variety of needs, ensuring you get the most out of your experience. CannaRelief Pain Relieving Balm: Presented in a convenient twist-up tube, CannaRelief is ideal for those dealing with arthritis, joint pain, muscle soreness, strains, and sprains. Its easy-to-apply format ensures you can target the exact areas of discomfort quickly and efficiently. Healing Hand Cream: Specially formulated for arthritis and joint pain in the hands, our Healing Hand Cream offers soothing relief. Its nourishing properties also provide hydration and care, making it a dual-action product for both relief and skin health. Intensive Repair Lotion: For those with skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis, our Intensive Repair Lotion is an excellent choice. Its gentle yet effective formulation helps to soothe irritated skin, providing much-needed relief and support for healthier, more comfortable skin. FAQs About CBD Topicals

  • Medical Marijuana Bill moves forward in North Carolina Senate

    Senate Bill 3, the NC Compassionate Care Act The North Carolina Compassionate Care Act, which was struck down last year, is showing promise during its new 2023 round. As of February 28, 2023, Senate Bill 3 passed two readings by North Carolina's Senate committee and it will undergo a third reading next week. Governor Roy Cooper is likely to sign the bill if it reaches his desk, based on an interview he had with WXII 12 News in December 2022. What is Senate Bill 3? If passed, the bill would grant access to medical marijuana for individuals dealing with cancer and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Patients would have to apply for a card and, once approved, would be able to purchase from licensed suppliers. The state plans to grant 10 licenses, and each holder could have up to 8 dispensaries. North Carolina is one of the few states in the country that have yet to pass a medical marijuana bill. Will it Pass the House? If Senate Bill passes its third reading, it will go to the House to be voted on. Last year, this is where the bill, unfortunately, did not make it through. However, those following the bill's progress remain optimistic this time around. The bill would establish a Compassionate Use Advisory Board, to review whether conditions will be added to the bill. If it passes the House, it will head to Gov. Roy Cooper to sign into law.

  • Do CBD Products work without THC?

    THC-Free CBD Products: Their Effectiveness and What's Right for You Cannabidiol, or CBD, has gained immense popularity in recent years due to its potential therapeutic benefits. CBD is one of the many compounds found in the Cannabis sativa plant, commonly known as hemp. Unlike tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), CBD is not psychoactive and does not cause the "high" associated with marijuana use. This has led to a surge in demand for CBD products, but many people wonder if CBD works without THC. Do CBD Products Still Work Without THC? The short answer is yes, CBD can work without THC. In fact, many CBD products are made with little to no THC. CBD works by interacting with the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), which is responsible for regulating a wide range of physiological processes such as mood, appetite, pain, and inflammation. The ECS consists of cannabinoid receptors, endocannabinoids (naturally occurring compounds in the body that bind to these receptors), and enzymes that break down these compounds. CBD interacts with the ECS by inhibiting the enzymes that break down endocannabinoids, leading to increased levels of these compounds in the body. This, in turn, can have a wide range of therapeutic effects. That being said, there is some evidence to suggest that CBD may work better in the presence of THC. This is known as the entourage effect, which suggests that the various compounds in the cannabis plant work together synergistically to produce enhanced therapeutic effects. While THC is not necessary for CBD to be effective, some people may find that a combination of the two produces better results. The Differences Between Full and Broad Spectrum When it comes to CBD products, there are two main types: full spectrum and broad spectrum. Full spectrum CBD contains all of the compounds found in the cannabis plant, including THC, other cannabinoids, and terpenes. Broad spectrum CBD , on the other hand, contains all of the compounds found in the plant except for THC. The main difference between full spectrum and broad spectrum CBD is the presence of THC. While full spectrum CBD may provide enhanced therapeutic effects due to the entourage effect, it may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who are sensitive to THC or subject to drug testing. Broad spectrum CBD, which contains all of the other compounds found in the plant without the THC, may be a better option for those who want to avoid THC or find THC-free products more effective. Which CBD is Right for You? In conclusion, CBD can work without THC, but the presence of THC may enhance its therapeutic effects. When choosing a CBD product , it's important to consider whether you want the potential benefits of the entourage effect or if you want to avoid THC altogether. Full spectrum CBD products have the potential to be more effective, but broad spectrum CBD products may be a safer option for those who are sensitive to THC or subject to drug testing.

  • DEA States Delta-8 and -9 THCO are Schedule 1 Controlled Substances

    THC-O is Federally Illegal as a Schedule 1 Controlled Substance As of February 2023, the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has added delta-8 THCO (delta-8-THC acetate ester) and delta-9 THCO (delta-9-THC acetate ester) to the Schedule 1 list for controlled substances. The DEA regulates the distribution of substances with a potential for abuse and dependence, and Schedule 1 is the most restrictive category of controlled substances. This means that any company selling products containing these cannabinoids must immediately cease sales. Last year, North Carolina cannabis attorney Rod Kight inquired with the DEA on their stance with THCO’s legality. In response, the letter states “Delta-9-THCO and delta-8-THCO do not occur naturally in the cannabis plant and can only be obtained synthetically, and therefore do not fall under the definition of hemp”. Furthermore, Terrence L. Boos, Chief Drug & Chemical Evaluation Section, continued that “delta-9-THCO and delta-8-THCO meet the definition of “tetrahydrocannabinols,” and they… are controlled in schedule I by 21 U.S.C. § 812(c) Schedule I, and 21 CFR § 1308.11(d). Kight’s original email and the DEA’s response can be read here. How is THC-O Different from Other Naturally Occurring Cannabinoids? There are over 60 naturally occurring cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant, with the most commonly discussed being THC and CBD. On the other hand, Delta-8 THCO and Delta-9 THCO must be converted from other cannabinoids, which means they do not fall under the definition of hemp as they are not naturally occurring. Inhalation Safety Concerns There is a particular concern related to the manufacturing process of THC-O products. One of the most common methods of synthesizing THC-O involves using a chemical called acetic anhydride. Recently, a study published in the Journal of Medical Toxicology suggests there are potential safety concerns regarding THC-O inhalation. When THC-O acetate is vaporized and inhaled, it can condense into a harmful substance called acetic acid in the lungs. Acetic acid is highly corrosive and can cause severe damage to the lungs. This risk is compounded by the fact that these synthetic cannabinoids are often added to e-liquids and vape cartridges, which can be easily consumed by individuals who may not be aware of the risks. These risks, combined with the fact that Delta-8 THCO and Delta-9 THCO do not occur naturally in hemp, make their addition to the Schedule 1 list of controlled substances an important development for the cannabis industry. It underscores the need for strict regulation and oversight of products containing these substances. The Future of THC-O Companies that continue to sell Delta-8 THCO and Delta-9 THCO products risk facing legal consequences, as the DEA takes a strong stance on the distribution of controlled substances. The DEA has also indicated that it will be closely monitoring the manufacture, distribution, and marketing of these products in the coming months. In summary, the addition of Delta-8 THCO and Delta-9 THCO to the Schedule 1 list of controlled substances is a significant development for the cannabis industry. Companies must cease the sale of these products immediately, and consumers should exercise caution when using any products containing these cannabinoids. By promoting responsible use and safe production practices, we can help ensure that the benefits of cannabis are realized while minimizing potential harms.

  • CBG vs CBD

    The Differences Between CBG and CBD Cannabidiol (CBD) and Cannabigerol (CBG) are two of the many compounds found in the hemp plant. Both CBD and CBG have been the subject of recent research, but there are essential differences between the two cannabinoids. CBD is one of the most well-known and widely used compounds found in hemp. It is a non-psychoactive compound, meaning it does not produce the “high” commonly associated with the use of marijuana. CBD is believed to have therapeutic benefits for a wide range of conditions. CBG, on the other hand, is a lesser-known compound found in hemp. It is also non-psychoactive and may demonstrate therapeutic and antibacterial properties. CBD and CBG both come from the hemp plant, but they are produced from different precursors and have different origins. CBD is produced from cannabigerolic acid (CBGA), which is the parent molecule of all other cannabinoids found in hemp. CBGA is first produced in the hemp plant and then converted into either cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) or tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA) through a series of enzymatic reactions. These acids are then decarboxylated, resulting in the formation of CBD and THC, respectively. CBG, on the other hand, is produced from the breakdown of CBGA. As the hemp plant grows and matures, CBGA is converted into other cannabinoids, including CBD and THC. However, a small amount of CBGA remains in the plant and is converted into CBG through different enzymatic reactions. While both CBD and CBG come from the same plant and have some similarities, they have important differences that should be understood. CBD is more widely used and better known, while CBG is a newer and less well-known compound that is still the subject of ongoing research. Let us know in the comments what you think about CBG products. If you're looking for a new and exciting hemp-derived product, you might want to check out the new Mental Support Formula sublingual from Carolina Cannabis Creations . The tincture is made from high-quality hemp and is formulated to provide maximum benefits to users. Their new line of CBD oils is registered with the FDA, as well, so check out the link below to view the new formula.

  • THCA: The Next Big Thing in Hemp?

    The Science Behind THCa Is THCa a "New" Cannabinoid? Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCa) is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid that is quickly becoming one of the most talked-about compounds in the hemp and cannabis industry. Unlike other well-known cannabinoids like cannabidiol (CBD) and delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), THCa is not as well understood by the general public and even those in the cannabis industry. Despite its relative obscurity, THCa is a fascinating and complex compound that has the potential to change the way we think about hemp and cannabis. What is THCa? THCa is derived from the hemp plant and is the precursor to delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). In its raw form, THCa is non-psychoactive and does not produce the “high” associated with THC. THCa is produced by the cannabis plant in large amounts and is typically found in high concentrations in fresh, uncured flowers. When marijuana or hemp is exposed to heat through the process of decarboxylation, THCa is converted into THC, which is the compound responsible for the psychoactive effects of cannabis. Is THCa legal? When it comes to the legality of THCa, it is important to note that the hemp plant and its derivatives are legal in the United States under the 2018 Farm Bill. This means that hemp-derived THCa is legal and readily available to consumers in the states that allow it. However, the legal landscape surrounding THCa and other hemp derivatives is constantly evolving, and it is important to stay informed about the latest laws and regulations in your area. THCa products may be available to purchase in your state, but your neighboring state may not. In recent years, THCa has gained a lot of attention in the hemp and cannabis communities due to its non-psychoactive nature and potential therapeutic benefits. Whether you're a researcher, a farmer, or a consumer, THCa is a compound that is worth paying attention to as the industry continues to evolve.

  • CBN vs CBD

    Comparing the Differences: CBN and CBD Cannabidiol (CBD) and Cannabinol (CBN) are two of the many compounds found in the hemp plant. While they come from the same source, they have different chemical properties and effects on the human body. CBD is one of the most abundant cannabinoids in hemp and is responsible for many of the plant's therapeutic effects. It's produced through the decarboxylation of cannabidiolic acid (CBDA). CBN, on the other hand, is a lesser-known compound that is produced as delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) ages. It is a degradation product of THC, meaning that it is formed when THC is exposed to light and heat. This is a process that can be accelerated by the drying and curing of the hemp plant. CBN has similar properties to CBD but is believed to have a more substantial sedative effect, making it a topic recently among sleep disorders.
