Jelly Belly creator injects jelly beans with 10 milligrams of cannabidiol (CBD)
This Easter will come with a little dose of CBD!
Move over CBD Gummies…CBD Jellies are here!
David Klein, the maker of uniquely flavored Jelly Belly jelly beans, is now infusing candy with cannabidiol (CBD). Unlike THC the CBD cannabis compound is non-psychoactive and does not get users high. Jelly beans are joining the popular cannabis candy market of gummies, chocolates and fruit snacks.
Klein was inspired to create CBD jelly beans after learning about the compound’s reported health benefits. Currently, Jelly Belly offers CBD jelly beans in 38 assorted flavors like cinnamon, spicy licorice, strawberry cheesecake and mango. Each containing 10 mg of CBD each, and are said to be coated with sugar to mask any CBD flavor.
Studies have also shown that CBD can help patients that suffer from digestive diseases like inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome. Doctors have warned, however, that there’s not enough research to determine a safe dosage of CBD oil, particularly in food.
The Future of the CBD Market
The CBD market is projected to hit $2.1 billion in sales by 2020, up 700% since 2016, with $450 million of those sales from hemp-based sources, according to The Hemp Business Journal.
With the FDA giving the whole industry push back, it is unknown if these projections will come into fruition. One thing is clear CBD offers amazing health benefits and the public is all for it!
