ONE13 CBD Lotion – $40
Growing more popular with athletes and gym rats along with cancer patients and the elderly, CBD is gaining prominence as a pain reliever. ONE13, a CBD-infused lotion produced in Phoenix, promises pain relief for sore joints and muscles. While derived from the cannabis plant, CBD doesn’t produce the same psychoactive effects that THC does, so users won’t get high. No medical card or prescription is needed.
