What I use it for: Managing pain and boosting mood
Pros: Eases my most severe pain (migraines, menstrual cramps, etc.) relatively quickly, and provides a noticeable mood boost without impairment. Plus, all Humboldt Apothecary products go through third-party lab testing.
Cons: The bottle cap design isn’t great—this oil will leak if you’re not careful. Also, this option is currently only available in California.
Overall: All of the tinctures featured in this list are likely to help relieve pain, but Humboldt Apothecary Uplift CBD is hands down the best option for managing pain and boosting mood. When I recently woke up with a migraine, one 0.5ml dose of this stuff took all of my pain away in about 60 to 90 minutes. This is also my go-to pain reliever when I’m suffering from menstrual cramps. Since it’s a 1:1, I also enjoy taking this tincture for fun on some nights and weekends, or when I’m feeling blue.
