Bear Necessities

Bears are among the most massive and powerful animals on earth. They are also very intelligent. They can use tools, they have a remarkably acute sense of smell, good eyesight and hearing, and they hibernate during inhospitable winters when the pickings are slim for food.

Hibernating brown bears will stay in their dens for up to seven months without eating or drinking. Somehow their bodies recycle waste without having to urinate or defecate. Their metabolism and heartbeat slow down considerably as they enter a not-quite-deep-sleep state known as “torpor” that enables a bear to sense environmental stimuli without becoming aroused. How is this possible?

Is CBD Better Than Delta-8 THC?

Since the 2018 Farm Bill, which made hemp legal in the United States, the CBD (Cannabidiol) market blew up. In 2019, the global cannabidiol market size was estimated at $7.1 billion, expected to hit $9.3 billion sometime in 2020, and forecasted to reach upwards of $23.6 billion by 2025. It’s safe to say that CBD definitely hit a boom and it has yet to peak. With this legalization of hemp, Delta 8 THC has also become a very popular cannabinoid as well but since it is a market that is still in its infancy, there hasn’t been any market forecasts released just yet.
