Impact Naturals, Socati Join Forces for Line of Wellness Products
Socati and Impact Naturals are teaming up to launch a line of CBD products that combine CBD and other cannabinoids. The companies said the products are designed for better and faster absorption into the bloodstream.
“Our commitment is to create the next generation of CBD products using a sciencebased approach. By creating products that are able to naturally boost cannabinoid absorption in the human body, we’re able to deliver products that are new and different in the wellness space,” said Impact Naturals CEO Vassili Kotlov. “By collaborating with Socati, the leader in CBD formulations, we’ve been able to achieve something very special with these products and are incredibly excited for people to use them.”
The Revive, Restore and Rest products offer CBD capsules formulated with broad-spectrum, high-absorption Chylosoma CBD, as well as the cannabinoids cannabigerol, or CBG, and cannabinol, or CBN.
“Using our proprietary lipid-absorption technology, Impact Naturals’ products allow cannabinoids to take advantage of the body’s existing lipid transport system, boosting absorption and delivery throughout the body,” said Dr. James Lowder, chief medical officer at Impact Naturals. The company said independent study data has shown the products to deliver improved CBD absorption and a quicker onset.
Rest offers a combination of CBD and CBN with melatonin, designed to help users fall and stay asleep. Restore is billed as a product for soothing body and mind with a combination of CBD and CBG. Revive also combines CBD and CBG, as well as American ginseng and ginkgo biloba, in a product meant to offer clarity, energy and focus. Each is sold in 30-count jars of vegan capsules that are free of THC.
“It’s a privilege to work with so many progressive CBD brands like Impact Naturals who are dedicated to creating innovative products for customers that are passionate about improving their own health and well-being,” Socati chief revenue officer Mark Elfenbein said.
Good Hemp Wellness Rolls Out CBD Softgels
Good Hemp, a subsidiary of Good Hemp Wellness, is bringing a CBD softgel to market with the U.S. Hemp Authority’s seal of approval and a CBD formulation meant to maximize absorption.
The Cornelius, N.C.-based company partnered with dietary supplement producer Barlean to produce the softgels, each of which contains 25 mg of CBD. Good Hemp Wellness said the CBD in the softgels uses a selfemulsifying formulation that Barlean’s internal studies have shown increase absorption into the bloodstream by as much as 200%.
Good Hemp Wellness’ CBD Softgel is launching with certification from the U.S. Hemp Authority. The certification, established In 2018, is meant to ensure that a hemp producer adheres to the highest standards and best practices to supply the best possible hemp and CBD products to consumers.
“We are very excited to help providers across the country educate their patients about the value of hemp-derived products,” said Jason Minsky, managing partner of the Good Hemp Wellness division. “Our Good Hemp Wellness CBD Softgels are uniquely blended to be fast-acting and self-emulsifying, which provides an overall greater positive physiological effect for the consumer.”
The product is sold in 30-count bottles that offer a total of 750 mg of CBD.
Fam Organics Launching CBN, CBG Products
Fam Organics, an Austin, Texas-based maker of CBD oils and topicals, is bringing two popular cannabinoids to its products. The company is launching two CBD + Cannabinoid blends — GoodDay Elixir with cannabigerol, or CBG, and GoodNight Elixir with cannabinol, or CBN.
The elixirs, set for an early fall launch, combine these cannabinoid isolates with the company’s USDA Certified Organic full-spectrum hemp oil. The GoodDay Elixir contains 2,400 mg of CBG, with the goal of supporting consumers with chronic pain. Fam Organics said CBG is thought to work with the body’s endocannabinoid system to improve gut health by reducing intestinal inflammation, aid in muscle recovery and reduce symptoms of nausea. It also is thought to help alleviate brain fog and anxiety.
GoodNight Elixir is designed to support falling asleep and getting a restful night’s sleep. The company said CBN is thought of as the “relaxation cannabinoid,” helping users fall asleep.
“Combining CBG and CBN with our full-spectrum hemp oil gives each elixir maximum benefits,” Marissa Davis, Fam Organics founder, said.
The new products will join Fam Organics’ existing lineup of CBD oils in various strengths, its Peppermint Joy oil and its CBD Rescue Cream.
NuLeaf Naturals is bringing a blend of various cannabinoids to market with its latest product. NuLeaf Naturals Multicannabinoid, offered in oil and softgels, contains a blend of cannabinoids, including CBD; cannabigerol, or CBG; cannabinol, or CBD; cannabichromene, or CBC; and Delta 8 THC.
The company said Multicannabinoid is focused on combining the different properties of these cannabinoids to best engage the body’s endocannabinoid system.
“NuLeaf Naturals has always been positioned to capitalize on the growing cannabinoid supplement market,” said CEO Ian Kelly. “From the day the company was first founded, our mission remains to help people and their loved ones live a happier and healthier life.”
NuLeaf Naturals said the combination of cannabinoids leads to what is called the “entourage effect,” allowing them to work synergistically to be more effective than when they are isolated. “Recent breakthroughs in the extraction and production of cannabinoids have allowed us, for the first time, to be able to market and distribute these products consistently at scale,” Kelly said. “Our cGMP certified facilities enable us to manufacture groundbreaking cannabinoid formulations while exceeding the highest levels of regulatory requirements.”

The union will see Jones and JustCBD working together to promote existing products and develop new ones, as well as consumer activations, fight ticket contests and product giveaways.
JustCBD offers a range of products that includes gummies, topicals, bath bombs and pet treats. Jones will be promoting several of these offerings, including the Ultra Pain Relief Gel, CBD Gummies and CBD coconut oil.

Rya Organics Revamps Nexus Relief Formulation
CBD and plant-based wellness and beauty brand Rya Organics by Cymbiotika is rolling out a reformulated version of its Nexus Relief supplement. The product now contains 600 mg of full-spectrum CBD per bottle — double its former amount.
The new formulation also includes evening primrose oil as a source of gamma-linolenic acid, which the company said acts as an antioxidant and has painrelieving effects.
“If you are desiring a potent CBD formula, something you can tangibly feel, then Nexus Relief is your solution,” said Chervin Jafarieh, founder of Cymbiotika. “Our full-spectrum CBD is minimally processed and provides a much stronger effect than other forms of CBD. Nexus contains a variety of compounds, including phytocannabinoids, terpenes and flavonoids, producing the well-known entourage effect. At 20 mg of CBD per serving, we are confident we got the dosage perfect.”
Nexus Relief is designed to help the body’s endocannabinoid system continue producing cannabinoids on its own. Besides the fullspectrum, CO2-extracted cannabinoids in the full-spectrum extract, the product contains TetraHydroCurcumin, or C3, and Boswellia sacra. “As we continue to develop the most advanced, bioavailable products, we are not only looking at creating new formulations, but advancing existing products,” said Cymbiotika CEO and managing partner Shahab Elmi. “Our customers will find that the Nexus Relief they love is better than ever and still one of the most superior products on the market.” Rya Organics Nexus Relief is sold on the company’s website for $88 for a single bottle, or $79.20 with a monthly subscription.
