Another lovely review from Sandra who is enjoying our oil and balm. It's still such a buzz when we get alerted of a new review on our site 😍⁠
⁠

Saw this posted by Vera Twomy over the weekend and thought it was a timely reminder of why we actually got into the CBD business in the first place.⁠
⁠
It's definitely an uphill battle whilst we deal with a conservative centrist government but the genie is out of the bottle now⁠.
⁠
"CBD Plus THC medication. The result a happy smile. This is what pure medical cannabis does when I talk about pure I mean natural not a version of cannabis oils stripped of the goodness and made more palatable and acceptable for consultant who can discuss their clinical trials surrounding them but if the cannabis within those clinical trials is altered dramatically the effectiveness for any condition will not be long term. If you need real results you need the real deal no imitations.⁠
Pure is pure it is not an imitation."⁠
⁠

Katie-George Dunlevy and Eve McCrystal won their second gold medal of Tokyo 2020 during the treacherous 92.4km road race in brutal conditions today⁠
⁠
An amazing feat of human endurance and Dunlevy had these inspirational words during her euphoric interview after the race⁠
⁠
"I struggled at school, I found school really hard," she admitted. "I was diagnosed at 11 – I would have liked to have been able to say to my younger self then that everything is going to be OK – great things can happen.⁠
⁠
"Just believe in yourself and there are things you can do, and that is what I would tell someone young with sight issues at home watching this."⁠
⁠
A great example of overcoming adversity and becoming your best self !⁠

👨‍🎓👩‍🎓 The kids are all back in school 👨‍🎓👩‍🎓
⁠
it's an exciting time for most but also a very anxious time for some. Parents and kids alike are trying to re-adjust to post lockdown life and school can be a major flashpoint in houses across the country.⁠
⁠
Here's a review this week from a returning customer...⁠
⁠
"Found the one.⁠
If you've tried other CBD oils, you'll realize, from the moment you taste the drops, that this is a higher quality product than what you can find for similar prices. Highly recommended and have ordered again."⁠
⁠

Brilliant success over the weekend from team Ireland with medals for cycling duo Katie George Dunlevy and Eve McCrystal who broke a world record in their semi final only to have it beaten in the final to put them in silver medal spot. Amazing achievement 🥈 ⁠
⁠
Jason Smith, "the fastest paralympian on the planet" added to his incredible record of winning T13 100 metre gold at 4 consecutive olympic finals ! The 34 year old beat his Algerian rival by just .01 of a second demonstrating the finest of fine lines it can take to achieve ultimate success 🥇⁠
⁠
A really interesting quote we found was from one of our cycling coaches who pointed out that regardless of medals or positions - every single rider delivered a PB performance. Unbelievable to have a whole team go out and perform their best at the same time.⁠

The very best of luck to team Ireland as the Paralympic games get underway in Tokyo⁠
⁠
29 Athletes have qualified for the Games in 27 slots representing Ireland in 9 sports.⁠
⁠
Hopefully they can bring us home some medals but regardless of that, it's great to see us being represented on the world stage by athletes who've had to find a way to overcome more adversity than most of the population will ever dream of facing 💪⁠
⁠

Pretty big news for the CBD industry as a whole as the first TV ad goes out today starring Strictly host Claudia Winkleman.⁠
⁠
It'll be the first exposure to CBD for hundreds and thousands of people and will help small brands like ours get our message out there.⁠
⁠
If you haven't tried CBD yet - what are you waiting for 😃⁠

CBD bath bombs all round for the Mayo and Dublin panels as they battled through the rain yesterday in the All Ireland Semi Final.⁠
⁠
Mayo finally put Dublins incredible 6 year winning streak to an end as they advanced to the final vs either Kerry or Tyrone.⁠
⁠
Is this the catalyst to end the Mayo curse ? we'll find out on the 11th September !⁠
⁠

It's fair to say the FSAI are not the biggest fans of CBD. Most government bodies in Ireland would rather it just disappeared altogether but the genie is out of the bottle now and too many people are learning about its benefits.⁠
⁠
They've no problem at all selling ice cream to kids however, a harmless summer related treat ? Not always according to an article published this week...⁠
⁠
"Certain batches of Nestlé Milkybar Mini Multipack ice cream and Nuii Salted Caramel ice cream were found to contain the presence of ethylene oxide.⁠
⁠
This pesticide was identified in the batch of food additive locust bean gum (E410) used in the production of those ice-creams.⁠

The Milkybar Mini Multipack treats and the Nuii Salted Caramel ice-creams are both sold in several Irish supermarkets."⁠
⁠
Ethylene oxide and locust bean gum. hmmmm. We really must get rid of organic h**p products.⁠
