Not all that long ago, no one had ever heard of CBD. Now it's exploded across the health-conscious world as more and more people have embraced it to treat everything from inflammation to depression to seizures. As CBD's popularity has grown, the number of CBD products on the market has expanded so rapidly that it can be difficult to know what's of good quality and what isn't. That's where we can help. Here you'll find The Manual's awards for the best CBD products, including CBD oils, CBD gummies, CBD pills and capsules, CBD cream, and more.
Aspen Green Full Spectrum CBD Oil
Best CBD oil
While Aspen Green's Full-Spectrum CBD Oil is a bit pricier than some other brands, you get what you pay for. It's made using only the highest-quality ingredients, and you can choose your potency from 1,000 to 3,000mg. What's more, each flavor option — original, citrus, and mint — is super tasty.
Flyers Cocktail Company
Best CBD drink
CBD drinks have emerged in a variety of formats, from sodas to teas to mocktails. Our favorite is among the latter group. Flyers Cocktail Company provides a unique menu of flavors in its alcohol-free, low-calorie beverages designed to help you chill out after a long day.
cbdMD CBD Gummies
Best CBD gummies
Sometimes you want something fun and tasty to deliver CBD health benefits. That's where CBD gummies come in. We think the best gummies are made by cbdMD because they come in an array of delicious flavors (strawberry, raspberry, orange, and tropical fruit), but each flavor is also offered in a range of potencies: 10mg, 25mg, and 50mg.
Lazarus Naturals Full-Spectrum High-Potency Sleep Tincture
Best CBD for sleep
One of the most common reasons people use CBD is as a sleep aid, and we think there's no better option than the sleep tinctures from Lazarus Naturals. This is because the company leverages the "entourage effect" by which CBD's benefits are supported by the additional cannabinoids CBG and CBN, both of which support sleep.
CBDistillery Broad Spectrum CBD Softgels
Best CBD capsules
Whether you call them CBD capsules or CBD pills, potency tends to be the most important quality. We like CBDistillery's Broad-Spectrum CBD Softgels because they offer high potency (30mg per capsule) in a format that is flavorless and easy to swallow.
Extract Labs Muscle Cream
Best CBD cream
CBD creams and lotions vary widely in terms of their intended applications, scents, and other characteristics, but we think the best on all fronts is the CBD Muscle Cream from Extract Labs. Full spectrum and highly potent, this cream is specifically intended for easing sore muscles. Still, we think its minty arnica scent is fantastic in any circumstance.
