So quick update, I was having some neck and shoulder pain today (maybe from stress of the 3 year old deciding she is going to be a true threenager and do everything opposite of what i asked her to do!) so I applied the cream to that area. Interestingly, there was the same heat sensation from when I first applied the cream I hadn't felt since the first application. I wonder if your body gets used to it then if you don't use it for a few days you get the heat sensation back? Anyone else having a similar experience?

With any type of heat sensation creams (IcyHot, menthol type creams etc) I always get accustomed when I am using daily. When I take breaks is when I get that sensation back (which I enjoy). Not sure how strong this one is as I do not have it but if it is a mild sensation I would become accustomed pretty quickly (maybe 2 days of use).

Question for you fellas. If you need pain relief only, in certain areas, would you use the cream or take a soft gel/gummie?

I would definitely go cream for immediate relief.  The cream for me is almost a numbing sensation and almost instant relief.  That being said, i do usually follow up with the oil later on. But the cream itself I've been pretty happy with.  But like TR1PTIK said, depending on the severity, you'd be better off with a combination at least. Either way, gummies I've been using primarily at night as I don't really notice a difference in myself taking them during the day.  Everyone metabolism/digestion is different so you may see different results on that front however.

 

I feel like i rambled on that. Long story short, I'd say use cream on site first, and follow up with oil for best results from what I've experienced.

I'd use the cream. It depends on the type of pain you're experiencing though. A quick Google search indicates that at least one test has shown CBD to help with various types of pain, but the research is still new on the subject and results will vary. Here's the article I found discussing CBD and pain relief: https://www.healthline.com/health/cbd-oil-for-pain.

I'm currently experiencing some bad neck pain and used the topical cream last night with only mild results. I may try the oil today just to see if I notice any sort of difference.

Thanks guys. I guess I'll try the cream/salve first on my various spots.

I've been using the cream for targeted relief. Sore muscles, aches, etc. I haven't noticed as significant feelings of relief from the gummies or tincture. I have been taking a gummy before runs if I'm sore at the start and I do feel that after my workout muscles feel less achy/inflamed. I typically follow up with the cream.

For sure the cream. Not sure how the gummies actually help but I am taking one daily. Most likely acts as a booster of sorts to keep the levels in your system? My buddy who is on my team for an upcoming friendly tournament has been out of commission due to a backsprain. I  recommended the Kanibi to him so will have to follow up on what he does.

Makes sense. Prob why i felt the heat again.

Quick suggested use for the testers that I do personally. I'll add 1ml of the full spectrum oil (750mg unflavored) to my second cup of coffee as I'm sitting down at my desk to start work. Combo seems to help me be alert and not edgy for the flood of web conference calls I'm dealing with.

Interesting. I have the choco mint but the flavor is pretty mild so might not taste it. I only drink about a cup of coffee a day at most so itll be on my first cup. Also, wife finally gave me the green light to go as long as i bring along the 3 year old so first round back soon!

I'm really enjoying the products by Kanibi. I know I can physically feel a difference with the Full Spectrum Tincture and the Gummies. But, I'm not really sure how much the CBD is coming into play with the Enhanced Sports Cream. That's going to be a big factor for me going into the final stretch of the review.

[Lacassem]

Good stuff guys enjoying this thread. Thank you for mixing and matching the tincture to see where and best time of day.

Alright so first round back since the new baby and I definitely notice the difference in playing weekly and taking 2 weeks off. Swing is still pretty much there but needs some tuning up. I won't post the scorecard as I did not have a great round and shot 100. However, what I did notice is that I was definitely not as nervous or jittery as I thought I would be getting back after 2 weeks. I took a full dose of the tincture before leaving home which was about 1 hour before the tee time. Warmed up a bit at the range and then headed out with my group. Even through out the round as I was hitting shots I would normally make, I was noticeable calm about it (even having my 3 year old with me on the course!). I hit a great 299 yard drive and one of my playing partners said it was the most relaxed swing he has seen me make! Of course I pulled it into the greenside bunker next shot but I managed to get out in 1 and get a par save for up and down.

Now for the morning after report. I noticed some cramps in my legs at night ( I took another full dose of the tincture before bed, had a gummy, and applied the cream to my lower back and knees). Woke me up about 2 times during the night but I was able to stretch it out and go back to bed. Sometimes these leg cramps I have in my calves can take a while to stretch out but I noticed I was able to recover quickly from the cramps though not sure if it was due to oil. Hypothesis is that the CBD is helping to manage the pain from the cramps so I can power through and stretch them out. Usually I just have trouble stretching out the cramp due to the pain! As I write this now, no soreness in the lower back but some in the shoulders and the upper back. Could be the extra bucket I hit after my round but with a friendly tournament coming up in 3 weeks I need the practice! I have 2 more rounds scheduled over the next 2 weeks and will continue to update.

Just a quick little update from me.  Haven't posted in a while. After taking the gummies at night daily for a little over a week, I can say I'm pretty sure it's helping me sleep better.  I'd been on a long stretch of waking up a couple times a night going into this test.  I didn't see the results right away, but I feel like over time using it (as well as the tincture) it built up in my system and the gummy at the end of the night gives it a little boost to a relaxing nights sleep.  

I can say I've gone from pretty skeptical about the gummies, to finally seeing some results from them that I'm happy with. Starting to organize my final review. Didn't think I'd have much material, but turns out, I have a good bit to share.

For the tincture and sleeping better. Does anyone have "sleep apnea" or snoring issues? I typically do not but this time of year I get congested and tend to snore. Anyone see a difference with tincture if you have the same issues?

I don't have sleep apnea but I know I do snore most nights when I sleep. Can't say if the tincture is helping much with the snoring. I will ask my wife to monitor my sleeping with the tincture at night lol. We have been sleeping in separate rooms lately because of the newborn so at least one of us is getting good sleep.

Just an off the wall question and normally I do not have issues but this time of year I do only reason I am thinking of it. They say CBD does all this and more so just curious.

I tend to snore quite a bit, I'll ask the SO what she thinks about my snoring after the gummies.

[beelzeberto]

She noticed no difference lol

I assume so. I notice myself snoring right as I am about to fall asleep. I believe the snoring has something to do with our nasal passages. Nothing CBD can do about that.

Minor research has been done and helps with some things. Snoring has many reasons behind it not just congestion

Hmm reduce REM during sleep? Aren't we supposed to have REM sleep for deeper sleep? Sounds interesting though. Will have to research more.

I will absolutely preface my response by saying that I am not a medical expert in anyway whatsoever.....

Generally speaking yes, but based on the little bit of research I've done there's a lot more nuance to that answer.

There are 4 stages of sleep: 1) Awake, 2) Light Sleep, 3) REM, 4) SWS or Deep Sleep.

REM is the state of sleep in which we typically have very vivid dreams, and is often accompanied by rapid eye movement (REM), increases in heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure. It is also suggested that this is the portion of sleep when memories and learning are stored. Many people will lay motionless during this phase of sleep, but there are plenty of others who physically act out their dreams during REM which is not so great.

Slow wave sleep (SWS), or deep sleep as it is more commonly referred, is the portion of sleep when we are hardest to wake and can become disoriented if suddenly awoken during this phase. SWS sleep is the physically restorative stage of sleep and can be accompanied by dreaming as well though not as intense as in REM.

For those who exhibit the sleeping disorder associated with REM in which they physically act out their dreams, CBD can be beneficial as it may help them achieve a more peaceful sleep.
