TROPICAL & BLACKBERRY FEEL BLISSED CHEWABLE LOZENGES
For me, edibles have consistently proven to be a useful tool for many situations - and keeping a toolkit of different edibles can help patients through good times and bad. This month, I was lucky enough to try The Feel Collection Chewable Lozenges in their blackberry and tropical flavors. These chewables are 10.03mg THC per piece and have 10 pieces in the pack, for a total of 100.3 mg THC.
DURING MY FIRST TRIAL, I TOOK TWO CHEWABLES IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET A SOLID NIGHT’S SLEEP.
I was able to fall asleep fast and stay asleep through the night - and due to having eaten no more than 20mg - I was not groggy in the morning. Sometimes edibles can be overwhelming, and dialing in that perfect dosage for a specific ailment is critical.
At approximately 10mg per chew, you can easily increase or decrease the dosage by small amounts to find that sweet spot.
Now armed with the knowledge that these would not make me groggy following an eight hour sleep, I decided to try them out for back pain. During the early day, I ate one of the chews to combat some lower back pain I was experiencing and felt relief within an hour of consumption - and the amount of Cannabis inhalation usually needed to curb my back pain was lowered.
Taste-wise, I really enjoyed the flavor of both varieties of these chews. The tropical flavor reminded me of drinking a fruit smoothie, with very little taste of Cannabis oil coming through. The same can be said for the blackberry flavor, making my toughest decision which flavor I liked more. Tropical takes the cake for me, but I would be just as happy with blackberry if my local dispensary only had one or the other.
The packaging is another plus, featuring an elegant and discreet design and including instructions for usage on the back. You can also take pride in knowing there are not a bunch of scary ingredients making up these chews! A big thank you for producing such high quality options for those patients who can’t medicate via inhalation - and for those who simply love edibles.
