I've Tried A Lot Of CBD, But I Keep Coming Back To This One (+ Save 20%)

I was first introduced to Beam through an Instagram ad about five years ago—but what really drew me in was the company's focus on recovery. When I learned CBD was being used by athletes to help with inflammatory pathways, resilience, and performance1, my interest was officially piqued.*

In fact, Beam's The One tincture was the first CBD product I ever tried. And while I've tested dozens of brands since, I can't stop coming back to Beam.

Beam focuses on broad-spectrum CBD products, which retain the many beneficial compounds found in the hemp plant but remove any traces of THC. The brand also opts for nano hemp, with smaller particles for better absorption.

I have to say, I felt the impact the very first time I tested it.* I tried one serving of Beam's CBD on the morning of a big meeting at work, and I was shocked by how at ease I felt throughout the day.*

I soon grew accustomed to this sense of calm; it's not that I was a moody person before, but I swear Beam's CBD oil helped me feel less bothered by little stresses during the workday.*

From a training perspective, I realized I was bouncing back much faster after tough workouts and long runs.* The impact was so significant that I even decided to take a dropper of Beam before running the New York City Marathon—and I shaved nearly 10 minutes off my personal record.

Personally, I prefer to consume CBD during the daytime for better focus and at night to help with sleep.*

Beam's CBD oil comes in four strengths (500 mg, 1,000 mg, 1,500 mg, and 2,000 mg) and two flavors (natural and peppermint). I loved that the dropper has labeled measurements, making it incredibly easy to find the right dose.

Initially, I opted for the 500 mg peppermint oil, using it the way most brands advise: taking a single serving under my tongue and holding it there for about 30 seconds before swallowing. As I grew more comfortable including CBD in my routine, I upped my strength to 1,500 mg.

Now, I'll often put the CBD oil directly in my morning coffee or matcha. I love the minty taste it adds, turning my decaf lattes into a better-for-you flavored beverage (which, by the way, Beam also offers).

The brand's bestselling dream powder is like a healthier hot chocolate with incredible sleep-supporting benefits.* The dream powder is also 20% off with a subsctiption—and, since my boyfriend now drinks it nightly, I'll absolutely be signing up.
