FUNKY FARMS VITAMIN DRINK
BY VICTORIA SMITH
25mg hemp extract plus
1000mg Vitamin C per pack
It’s well known around the office that I’m the one to come to if
you need a vitamin or remedy of some kind. I’ve got an entire
drawer full of everything from paracetamol down to magnesium
effervescent. So, when I was asked to try out this vitamin sachet
by Funky Farms I wanted to see how it differed from regular
effervescent supplements. I tend to buy the orange flavour
usually, but this was a citrus blend.
My initial thoughts of the sachet were that it looked like it could
fit in well in any health food store. When pouring it into the
glass I noticed it was a fine powder with orange grains. It has
the same vitamin profile as Berocca, with the added extra of
25mg of hemp extract. The citrus flavour works well against the
hemp notes but is slightly overpowering and it does linger after
finishing the drink. Still, not much more than a regular vitamin
drink would.
HUGS PICK ME UP
BY RÓISÍN DELANEY
12.5mg CBD + 75mg caffeine per sachet
Fast acting, zero THC and packed with caffeine. A box of five
sachets, not to be used every day, rather for when you have that
lull before a workout, or if you’re struggling with jetlag. I actually
found a glass of water with one sachet to be really effective in
making me more aware and awake on a late work night, when I
couldn’t bring myself to drink another coffee or down a Red Bull.
CBD has been shown to counteract those jitters we often
associate with drinking too much coffee, so it works well in
balancing the effects of 75mg worth of caffeine. The CBD
used by Hugs in this product is also water soluble, increasing
bioavailability.
