SERVING SIZE: ONE RING

Gummiez Sugar-Free Peach Rings, $25 8.81mg THC-TOTAL • 0.20mg cbd-total 0.19mg CBG-TOTAL • 1.11mg cbn • 0.40mg cbc 9.53MG ACTIVATED-TOTAL

One of the best developing areas of the medibles

world are the easy to eat small sugar treats like gummies. They offer a lower calorie option to patients, and the ease of ingestion can’t be beat. Not everyone wants to smoke their medicine, and we appreciate this alternative. Unfortunately, with this particular option, the medicine doesn’t match with the levels being advertised on the packaging. At a $25 price point, there is little wiggle room for patients on a budget trying to find a consistent dosage of Cannabis. Our results found 9.53% activated total cannabinoid and 8.81mg THC-total against the 25mg claimed on the packaging. The product is a tough sell at the price point, and currently not a good value. Overall, this product is a great idea that is missing a little R&D on getting the medicine to bind to the gummy. Sugar-free options are becoming more and more important as dietary restrictions for patients become tougher, and we hope that the future brings a little more THC to the mix.

Cheeba Chews CBD Chocolate Taffy, $18 54.34mg thc-TOTAL • 2.04mg cbg-TOTAL 16.66mg CBD-TOTAL • 77.06mg ACTIVATED-TOTAL

This is a perfect example of a company develop-

ing a product that is both in-demand and quality. The demand for CBD products has exploded over the last two years, though production hasn’t always kept up with the market changes. The CBD chews blend a finely tuned dose of CBD and THC that allows both medicinal compounds to work together to provide consistent relief. A few of the many different applications for this blend include cancer treatment, pain management and as a potential opiate addiction treatment. While some might balk at the $18 price point, it is worth the cost for the potency of the medication. As long as the medication levels stay solid in this product we definitely recommend it.
