Global drinks giant Coca-Cola may be ‘thinking’ of entering the cannabis market with a ‘wellness beverage’ but Love Hemp Water has already beaten them to it.
Love Hemp Water launched its cannabidiol (CBD) infused drink earlier this year.
The brand, which sold a record number of bottles this summer, is stocked in Holland & Barrett, Ocado and online at www.cbdoilsuk.com
Each 500ml bottle of Love Hemp Water is sugar free, contains 2mg of CBD and is certified 0.0% THC, meaning it does not have any psychoactive effect when consumed.
It is the first functional spring water in Europe to be infused with cannabidiol, a natural constituent of hemp.
Tony Calamita, co-founder of Love Hemp Water, said: “There’s a growing understanding of the wide ranging benefits of cannabis oil to health and well-being which is why we launched our own trailblazing Love Hemp Water drink.
“We are interested that Coca-Cola is closely watching the growth of CBD as an ingredient in functional wellness beverages and may wish to follow in our footsteps.”
The number of people using cannabidiol (CBD) oil in Britain has rocketed from 125,000 to 250,000 in the past 12 months, according to the Cannabis Trades Association UK.
Cannabis oil has been subject to extensive scientific studies, most recently by the World Health Organisation, where it was found to offer a wide variety of health benefits.
The WHO report revealed that CBD oils – completely natural supplements sourced from low-level THC Cannabis Sativa hemp – have benefits for Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, MS, pain, anxiety, depression, cancer and diabetic complications.
