CBD protein powder combines CBD (cannabidiol) extracted from hemp plants with traditional protein powder. These protein powders only contain CBD, meaning there is no THC, so users will not experience any psychoactive effects. The protein powders can be made from whey, soy, peas, hemp, or other sources such as brown rice or eggs.
A major benefit CBD could add to your gym session is increased muscle bulk. CBD helps many people achieve greater levels of REM sleep, which is the time of the sleep cycle when your cortisol levels are at their lowest. When cortisol levels are low, protein synthesis occurs and builds muscle tissue.

- Balanced natural digestion
