Researchers found significantly decreased cortisol levels suggesting that CBD acts as a sedative, providing a deeper and more restful night’s sleep.

So many standards from the American Songbook were written by George Gershwin.  Embraceable You, Our Love is Here to Stay and more.  So many contemporary artists are revisiting and recording new versions of the old standards like Willie Nelson, Diana Krall, Linda Ronstadt.  Why?  Because this music is so timeless.  And it’s great to dance to.  We will be dancing to new versions of the Gershwin standards.  Come join us at the Zoom Stardust Ballroom.  Well at least join me in my basement studio and we will have fun dancing to the Tunes of George Gershwin.

For Restorative Yoga, find some cushions, large books, yoga blocks, blankets, whatever you can use instead of bolsters and blocks.  We make it work.  For more information on Restorative yoga, check out my site, niawithlinda.com.  It is a lovely passive practice that gives the participant relaxation and calm. Who couldn’t use that right now.

GHP News has published the announcement that Herb Tech Pharma is one of  the winners of the 2020 Commercial Cannabis Awards.

See published article below.

Most Advanced Topical & Oral CBD Products Brand – USA

Based in Beverly, Massachusetts, Herb Tech Pharmaceuticals is a speciality pharmaceutical company focused on the development of Hemp CBD and other botanical extracts. Following its well-deserved success in the Commercial Cannabis Awards 2020, we got in touch with Laura Stephens to find out more.

With its consumer- based focus deriving from its unique history, Herb Tech Pharmaceuticals is committed to delivering superior topical and oral products. Going into further detail, Laura begins by providing us with a brief overview of the firm and offers more insight into its clientele.“The decision that a consumer makes to purchase a health and wellness product is an important one and one that we at Herb Tech Pharma do not take lightly. Naturally, we believe that the consumer is relying on us to produce a product that can safely and effectively address their health and wellness needs. Here at Herb Tech Pharma, our philosophy focuses on the core belief that the gastro-intestinal system is not the target area for the absorption of CBD or botanical extracts. As naturally derived ingredients, the gastro- intestinal system treats CBD and botanicals like food and destroys them. The little that remains must then be absorbed through the stomach lining, pass through the liver, and only then reach general circulation where they travel throughout the body looking for receptors.

“Using our topical phase change technology or oral micro mist technology can reduce the stomach issues that some consumers could realize from oral products. Typically, our superiority to others is based on our four pillars which includes advanced formulation science, purity and concentration of CBD and extracts, full panel independent validation to ensure of compliance and transparency, and lastly packaging that both protects the product and aids the consumer with proper dosing.At Herb Tech Pharma, we truly believe formulation science combined with our other product pillars helps ensure that the consumer has the best possible health and wellness experience from a brand that they can trust.”

When it comes to recruitment, the firm typically look for candidates who can demonstrate three key skills as Laura goes on to explain.“With our team culture evolving around subject matter expertise, innovation, and passion, we want all of our individual team members to be experts in their fields, to be able to demonstrate innovative problem-solving skills and show a passion for creating unique products.”

In such a very competitive industry, remaining at the forefront of emerging developments has proved to be a pivotal factor behind the firm’s success as Laura explains further. “By heavily investing in the development of our current science platforms as well as more advanced biochemical technologies for prescriptive drug applications, we believe this commitment has allowed us to forge our own path as we push the industry to focus more on product quality, innovation and consumer trust.”

The outbreak of COVID-19 has further highlighted the lack of understanding retailers and consumers have about white label products. In response to this, Herb Tech Pharma have launched a programs to educate the consumer and retailer on how to read a label as Laura points out.

“Since COVID-19 has heightened the public’s focus on health and wellness, consumers and retailers are asking more questions about their products which provides companies like Herb Tech Pharma with an opportunity to educate the consumer and retailer on what distinguishes product quality.

By completing our programs, consumers are able to make better, educated product purchasing decisions.”Bringing the interview to a close, Laura signs off by commenting on the firm’s future prospects as we look ahead to 2021 and beyond.“Here at Herb Tech Pharma, we continually invest in our formulation science platforms and intellectual property. In this regard, we have a number of unique and exciting programs under development that we believe will not only add to our product portfolio but also help further evolve the industry.

Moving forward, with such fierce competition in our industry, maintaining our current position will be challenging, but with the efforts of our team and our commitment to innovation there are plenty of reasons to be optimistic about our future.”

The New Glen T. MacLeod Cape Ann YMCA is OPEN! We are so excited to share this amazing new space with all of Cape Ann. Check our virtual tour and see the state-of-the-art amenities waiting for you! #strongYstrongcommunity #newGTMYMCA

Celebrities like Martha Stewart, Kim Kardashian, Gwyneth Paltrow, Whoopi Goldberg, John Legend and Rob Gronkowski are lending their names to various CBD brands.  Their fame is valuable for educating the public about the health benefits of CBD.When Jennifer Aniston says that low THC Hemp (less than 0.3%) won’t make you high, you remember.  People listen when Rob Gronkowski says that low THC Hemp was reclassified under the 2018 Farm Bill, so CBD products made from it now can be legally shipped to all 50 states. 

It’s good for the whole industry when Willie Nelson helps more people know that the FDA approved the use of Epidiolex®, a drug containing CBD, to treat forms of epilepsy.

Tens of millions of CBD users in the United States are already using CBD for relaxation, focus and recovering from exercise.  Celebrities from television, Montel Williams, to music, Melissa Etheridge, to sports, Mike Tyson and Megan Rapinoe, will help bring the benefits of CBD into the mainstream.

How Do You Select the Healthiest CBD Products?

At Northeast Kingdom Hemp, we welcome celebrity influencers and hope they will expand their educational efforts.  It is important that consumers understand the importance of being certified USDA Organic, and that the Healthiest CBD products contain a full range of cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids that work together with CBD for optimal response in the body.

How your CBD is grown, processed, and extracted affects how it works in your body.

Our family farm doesn’t have a celebrity marketing budget, but we know how to produce the Healthiest CBD oils.

What Should You Do?

Learn what you can from celebrities, but when selecting CBD products, make sure you’re getting the Healthiest.  That means finding a source that puts quality first in every step of the process.

How your CBD is grown, processed, and extracted affects how it works in your body.

Small family farms like Northeast Kingdom Hemp don’t compromise quality for profit.  They only make the Healthiest CBD oils.  Use a source you can trust.

About Northeast Kingdom Hemp

Northeast Kingdom Hemp is a family farm producing full-spectrum CBD oils and other hemp products in Barton, Vermont.  Four generations of family farmers – all born and raised in Vermont – lovingly tend all the hemp on our USDA Certified Organic farm.  We follow sustainable practices to grow pure and healthy hemp plants.  We do all the processing of our hemp, including small-batch supercritical CO2 extraction which preserves and captures the more than 80 active compounds naturally found in hemp.  The result is pure, great tasting, healthier CBD oils that are teeming with naturally occurring phytocannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids that are largely lost by more industrial extraction methods. Because we perform the entire process from planting to bottling right on the farm, we know that every step is done right to give you the purest and healthiest CBD oils. ANGEL WINGS WELLNESS carries the full line of North East Kingdom Hemp Products!
