It’s a big job being a father. For those who are doing it all, taking care of their families, themselves and their relationships, a gift of CBD oil makes for a useful and pragmatic gift that will enhance and make everyday life better for Dad.“I believe the greatest benefit is helping me to sleep,” says Shawn Hermanson, CEO of Player Complete, a wellness company that serves as a conduit for professional athletes to enhance their focus, performance and recovery with hemp-derived products. “I used to be a very anxious sleeper, but now I take 2-3 drops of my CBD oil and I am out until the next morning, rested and ready to take on two young children, and my wife.”Hemp oil has been described as a “super-charger” for the body’s endocannabinoid system, a neural network present throughout the body with receptors throughout the body.“Prior to taking CBD I had tried various herbs, meditation, exercise, etcetera,” says Andrew Havens, the CEO and owner of Nganic.

“I’m a 37-year-old dad with two energetic kids, a 2-year-old girl and 5-year-old son, and I use our CBD oil to help with the anxiety that comes along with being taking care of children and a household with my wife, in addition to running a business. When I get to the end of my day, my adrenal fatigue seems nearly non-existent, and I am ready to retire to bed without any trouble.”Dr. Philip Blair is a physician and medical advisor who runs pre-clinical trials of CBD as a therapy for P.T.S.D.  He states that all nine veterans in his trial reported some sort of relief from their “repeated, disturbing memories of their stressful military experience” after three weeks of twice-daily 5mg servings of CBD oil. “From improving quality of sleep to decreasing feelings of pain, CBD Hemp Oil has shown to improve quality of life with no significant side effects,”

Dr. Blair asserts.Because CBD does not contain the intoxicating “high” associated with THC, analysts are projecting the market in the U.S. to grow to $2-3 billion by 2021. CBD-infused products are surging in popularity, and they could make your gift to Dad one he’ll remember for years to come.There really is no limit to the type of great Father’s Day gifts you’ll find. Bestselling author and yoga instructor Darrin “Yogi-D” Zeer (named “America’s Relaxation Expert” by CNN) uses CBD salve for his low-back pain and says he and his wife use CBD lube for lovemaking. “It’s the only way to go.”Here are some tried-and-true products any dad will love:
