๐ŸŒฟ Green Compass vs. Store-Bought CBD: What You Need to Know


Let’s talk about something I really wish more people knew…


Not all CBD is created equal.


I didn’t realize this when I first started exploring natural wellness. I figured CBD was CBD—right? But after doing my research, trying a few products that didn’t do much, and eventually finding Green Compass, I realized just how big the difference can be.


If you’ve ever tried store-bought CBD and felt disappointed or unsure if it was “working,” this post is for you.


๐Ÿšซ Store-Bought CBD: What You Might Be Getting


Let’s break it down. Most CBD products you find on the shelves of convenience stores, gas stations, or big box retailers are:

Low-quality or untraceable hemp – Often not organic, and sourced without transparency

No third-party testing – Which means no guarantee of purity or potency

Misleading labels – Some don’t even contain the amount of CBD they claim

Fillers and artificial ingredients – Added sugars, dyes, synthetic flavoring, and more

Unregulated production – Many aren’t made in FDA-inspected facilities


So when someone tells me “CBD didn’t work for me,” my first question is always:

What kind did you try—and where did it come from?


✅ Why I Chose Green Compass


After months of researching, comparing, and trying products, I found Green Compass—and everything changed.


Here’s what makes it different:

๐ŸŒฑ USDA Certified Organic hemp grown in North Carolina

๐ŸŒฟ Seed-to-shelf transparency so you know exactly what’s in your product

๐Ÿงช Third-party lab testing on every batch (results are available to you!)

No artificial fillers, dyes, or synthetic junk—just pure, clean wellness

๐Ÿ’š Formulated for real results—and I feel it


This is CBD I trust not just for myself, but for my family—and I wouldn’t be sharing it if I didn’t genuinely believe in the quality.


๐Ÿ’ฌ Why It Matters


Your wellness is worth more than gas station gummies.

You deserve to know what you’re putting in your body.

And if you’re using CBD to manage stress, anxiety, sleep, or cravings—you deserve a product that’s designed to help.

๐ŸŒฟ CBD and Hormones: What Every Woman Should Know

  Posted in The Wellness Den | June 14, 2025 Let’s be real: being a woman comes with a lot of hormonal ups and downs. Mood swings. Fatigue. Bloating. Brain fog. Anxiety. Sleep issues. And don’t even get me started on the perimenopause rollercoaster. Whether you’re in your 20s or late 40s (like me!), hormones influence everything —your energy, mood, digestion, skin, cycle, and emotional balance. But here’s something most women don’t hear enough: CBD can help. Not as a magic pill or miracle cure—but as a powerful tool that supports your body’s natural rhythms and helps bring balance when everything feels off. ๐Ÿ’› What Happens When Hormones Are Out of Whack? When estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, or thyroid hormones get thrown off, you may feel: Anxious or irritable Wired but tired Struggling with sleep or concentration Sluggish digestion or metabolism Cravings, mood dips, and PMS from another planet Sound familiar?
