"I have known the benefits of cannabis for many years. The CBD chemical itself was something I really wanted to get out to the public."
Entrepreneurs are seeking to educate the public on the benefits of CBD through every day products.
Pharmacist Dr Craig Leivent is one of them and has founded Flower Power Coffee Company.
“I’m a pharmacist, and I hand out medicine all day that’s shown to help people greatly,” Dr. Leivent told Fox News. “I have known the benefits of cannabis for many years. The CBD chemical itself was something I really wanted to get out to the public.”
He believes the best way to prevent forgetful people from skipping their CBD dose in the morning is to have it in their coffee.
“80 percent of the population drinks coffee. You won’t leave your house without your cup of coffee. You might forget your vitamins, you might forget to water you plants, but you won’t forget your coffee.”
“Flower Power Coffee is infused with CBD or Cannabidiol, which is the non-psychoactive component of cannabis. CBD-infused coffee won’t get you high, you won’t fail a drug test, and it does have a lot of medical and health benefits.”
Leivent’s mission to make CBD mainstream shouldn’t be that difficult either with the ever growing popularity of the chemical across the country and the recent FDA approval of a CBD based drug.
“You can buy hemp seeds in Costco right now, so if you can hemp seed in Costco, eventually you’re going to buy CBD products,” he said.
Leivant, who said his company is planning to expand into areas where CBD is legal, believes CBD-products are headed for mainstream production.
