CBD Review: ZenWorks CBD Softgel 300mg Capsules

Brand Overview: ZENWORKS

ZenWorks makes a plethora of CBD products for people and pets to help calm inflammation after a difficult workout or calm your anxious pup for when she freaks out after you leave for work. The company’s mint-flavored tinctures range from 250 mg of CBD to one thousand. ZenWorks started when the founder discovered he had stage 4 cancer. This led to a strenuous year of medical procedures. Al, the founder, discovered CBD during his recovery process and found that it helped with his sleep, appetite, pain, and mood. Al and his wife Sharon created ZenWorks with a mission to help suffering people with their high-quality CBD products. Everything they make is THC-free, meaning you won’t get high. A small portion of every sale goes to a charity like the American Cancer Society, the Cancer Research Institute, and the Make-a-Wish Foundation.

ZenWorks softgel capsules are each infused with 10 mg of CBD to help reduce stress, anxiety, and pain. Each bottle comes with thirty capsules for a total of 300 mg, but if you’re looking for a higher does, ZenWorks also makes a 25 mg softgel capsule. Taking capsules is a low calorie and smoke-free way to get your daily dose of CBD, and ZenWorks makes it simple with these easy-to-swallow gelcaps made with bovine-derived gelatin. They look almost identical to my Vitamin E capsules! These gelcaps are great for consumers on-the-go who need a quick, easy, and subtle way to take CBD. These capsules are made with water-soluble nanoemulsion technology and MCT oil which allows for the CBD to be absorbed faster and more effectively. You can take 1 – 4 of these capsules a day as needed, but don’t forget to take it with food to prevent any stomach aches.

My doctor prescribed me a medication called gabapentin which treats nerve pain I have from several injuries. My nerve pain is bad during the day, but at night it reaches a level of such extreme that I can’t sleep unless I’m medicated. It was, for this reason, my doctor recommended I take a double dose of gabapentin before bedtime. Unfortunately, despite reminding her twice to make the change to my prescription, it’s still at an amount that if I do double up my dose at night, I will run out of my prescription before I’m allowed to refill it. Right now, I’m at the end of the month and I’ve run out of my gabapentin. The pain during the day is so bad that I struggle to sit through my 2.5 hour-long French class. My sleep has been abysmal. While I wait until I can refill my medication and get in to see a different doctor, I’ve been using Ibuprofen, but it does nothing to help. I was interested in trying these ZenWork’s CBD-infused capsules to help relieve some of this pain and allow me to get some rest. I took two capsules in the morning for a total of 20 mg of CBD and another three before bedtime.
