CBD is one of many Cannabanoids present in Cannabis, dating back to when it was discovered in 1940, Cannabidiol (CBD) to this day is still actively being studied in relation to; anxiety, movements disorders, pain disorders, etc. The list can go on about what the many effects of CBD can help or worsen, but what it does to an average every day person is a more common question.

Sure everyone has heard a CBD miracle story regarding Parkinsons disease or Epilepsy, but how many people actually use CBD daily for general pain, headaches, anxiety, mild joint pain, according to a survey conducted in 2020 about 64% of adults in the United States said they were familiar with CBD, as of 2020 there was 329.5 million people in the united states, thats 210.5 MILLION PEOPLE that are familiar with CBD.

With the many evolving ways to ingest CBD the most common I've found is via Gummies or Honey Sticks (pictured above) not only is its visually similar to the candies everybody ate growing up, it tastes like these well known candies too, CBD when ingested has many beneficial qualities, while candy isn't for everybody there are always more options when ingesting CBD. Hemp Flower that can be smoked just like Marijuana, Oils and Lotions that can be massaged into the skin, similar to lidocain cream has beneficial qualities.

The Bong.

Originating from China, The water pipe, commonly known now a days as a "bong" was used during the late 16th century as a smoking device for tobacco. To this day the "Bong" is now more commonly used for the use of marijuana, with its limitless amount of designs here is what you should know.

If you're and avid smoker and haven't gotten the chance to check these bad boys out, it's totally OK, we get it, they're scary looking and look easily breakable. Not every device has to be scary like this one might seem, here is the plus side to "Bongs".

1. Less inhalation of ash, or as some would call "Scooby Snacks"

- We all know what its like to hit a glass pipe, you get a nice hit then suddenly hear that nice ~snap~ that is a nice hot piece of ash flying at mach speeds to your mouth. OUCH. Well with "Bongs" they have this nice area at the bottom that is slightly filled with water that catches all of the ash that may fly from your bowl piece.

2. Percalators!

- This might be my personal favorite due to the face this is what I feel makes "Bongs" look scary, The Percolator. Everybody has a personal preference as to what Perc (Percolator) might be the best, Honeycomb, Tree Perc, Matrix, Showerhead, the list goes on. I'm here to help you find whats best for you and your lungs! However the Sole purpose of these terrifying glass monsters is actually very beneficial to your health, they're commonly used to filter out all the resin that builds up as well as the ash that is usually inhaled via other smoking devices. All smoke that is about to hit your lungs is filtered through the water and being cooled so its not as much of a pain when it is inhaled. (So its important to keep your glass clean!) Percolators can be a great addition to your "Bong".

3. The design

- Okay can we talk a minute about how some "Bongs" are pretty cool looking? If you think about it the first original waterpipe was in the Ming Dynasty when they didn't have even remotely close to the technology and glass blowing skill that we have today and the industry itself is ever changing.
