“Are CBD sex products actually worth it?”
Hey bae! CBD is also known as Cannabidiol and is very helpful for relaxation. Naturally, its growing popularity always makes people wonder whether these products are just a fad or beneficial. Overall, experts are mixed on the effectiveness of CBD. Scientifically, research supports its ability to aid in relaxation and sleep, while some skeptics believe CBD is simply THC-lite, and not worth the cop.
In my experience, CBD sexual wellness products have been very beneficial for stimulation and relaxation. From antidepressants absolutely destroying my sex drive to needing a physical boost, CBD products have aided with arousal when my mind and body struggled to get “in the game.” Most people fail to realize that pleasure is a mind-body experience so being “hot and ready” all the time isn’t possible for some people.
For me, enhancing that connection looks like opting for a CBD-infused sex oil. These make my cl-t more sensitive and “tingly” for lack of a better term. This makes it easier for me to feel stimulation, which leads to enhanced arousal and that leg-shaking feeling we all know and love.
As a Sex & Dating Editor I’ve sampled an unreal amount of stimulating oils and two have my heart.
