In the world of CBD, there seems to be a new product or brand every week. The search for CBD products that can aid migraine sufferers continues here at The Bluntness. We put our sweet tooth to the test, hoping that a piece of chocolate a day could keep the doctor away! 

What we found is that due to the way CBD chocolate is packaged, you’re unlikely to digest enough per piece for it to be effective, especially if you’re looking for any type of relief. With that said, if you’re looking for a new way to enjoy sweet treats, we’ve got some good recommendations below. 

Vital Leaf Classic Dark CBD Chocolate Bar

  • Dosage: 200mg per 10 bar serving. 
  • Taste: Dark chocolate is a hit or miss for migraine sufferers. It can help or it can cause our migraines. With that said, it’s worth the bite either way.
  • Packaging: Creative and luxurious. Vital Leaf has a variety of chocolate flavors and they’ve altered the packaging slightly to match the flavor. Super cute.
  • Price: $15. Packaged as a chocolate bar.

Vena Full Spectrum Milk Chocolate CBD

  • Dosage: 2MG THC per piece. 10 pieces of milk chocolate per bag. 
  • Taste: Delish. Because it’s milk chocolate, its taste is mild enough that it's easy to combine it with your other favorite chocolate treats… say, peanut butter cups? 
  • Packaging: Pretty enough to be a present. Each piece of 10 is wrapped in rose gold and comes in a resealable bag. 
  • Price: $39.95 for 10 individually wrapped pieces

Sugar & Kush Cookies N Cream Chocolate Bar

  • Dosage: 250mg per 12 bar serving. THC-free. 
  • Taste: Decadent. Smooth, rich, and creamy. 2-3 squares from this bar is enough to give you a sugar rush. 
  • Packaging: Old-school chocolate bar wrapper. Pretty, attractive branding. 
  • Price: $7.99 per bar or $19.99 for a variety pack. Packaged as individual chocolate bars. 

The Bluntness Breakdown: CBD chocolates are a nice treat that may mellow you out ever so slightly – if your body is not already acclimated to THC. For me, CBD chocolate just didn’t make the cut to add to our migraine-relief toolkit. If you personally have had a different experience, we’d love to hear from you. Find us on social media and send us note! In the meantime, get out there and test, test, test. Find out what works for your body.

What is mushroom tea?

Mushroom tea is exactly what it sounds like: a tea infused with psilocybin.

Weed Makes Me Introspective: When Cannabis Causes Us to Reconsider Our Life Choices

Pot Prompts Self-Reflection

Being stoned comes with a wealth of side effects – some of which are just part of the fun, while others have been known to get smeared all over a person’s psyche, causing them to gawk out the window every thirty seconds to see if the cops are coming up the stairs.

Perhaps the least discussed byproduct of the bud, however, is its uncanny ability to send the user into a maddening state of introspection. Cannabis can make individuals more attuned to their bodily sensations, emotions, and inner thoughts, which can contribute to this introspective state. Weed can often inspire the high-minded to start questioning their life choices, setting them on a path of self-doubt, self-loathing, and self-destruction.

Aging & Cannabis: New Findings

For decades, cannabis has been widely regarded as a substance with potential cognitive risks, particularly when used over long periods. Governments across the globe have classified it as a controlled substance, citing concerns about the effects of marijuana use, including memory loss, diminished executive function, and long-term neurological impact. But new research is challenging this long-standing assumption, suggesting that cannabis use may not be linked to age-related cognitive decline—and might even be associated with better cognitive preservation over time.

A recent study published in PubMed (NIH, 2024) followed over 5,000 men for more than four decades to analyze the long-term cognitive effects of cannabis use. The results? Men with a history of cannabis use experienced less cognitive decline from early adulthood to late midlife compared to those who never used cannabis.
