We're going to talk today about probably besides you know, safety and being safe, right that the most important part, the feature of it CBD is the absorption ability to get our CBD into the body safer and faster. So it works very quickly and helps you with your health and wellness.

Yeah, and that's a big thing, because when I was researching it, or even beforehand, I was at a gym, right a really nice gym and I love this gym and they always were promoting a CBD right. And you've seen those CBD stuff right there. The ads are there and you're like, wow, everyone looks really fit and healthy. And so I didn't want to take anything in I didn't want to ingest anything. So I used a cream. Do you find that normal?

Yeah, absolutely. I mean, I think first time users, right, or even people have used CBD it didn't work for him before. Want to then try something that's a topical, because, you know, it's the soul safe and then taken and ingestible 100%

Yeah, so I'm, I'm looking at it. And I'm like, Wow, are I really, you know, I was in sort of an ex athlete, right? And so, but I still love to exercise. And I was like, Alright, let me try this. So I spent a lot of money, and I bought a cream for my knees. And I'm gonna let you figure out how well it worked. It said 300 MGS. And the guy across the who sold it to me told me that that was one of the highest you could get. What do you think about that?

Yeah, no, I think know. The

why No,

you know, because it's very, very common. And one of our previous episodes, Rob, we talked about approximately 85% of all the brands in the United States come from two companies in Colorado, that people just buy in, they put their label on their right and their brand. And what's that called again? So private labeling, right? So you know, all a lot of these cop not all but most have think about, it's just coming out, it's the same car coming off the assembly line, right? And you may throw a different bumper sticker on it. That's what these companies are doing. So when you see a 300 milligram roll on, for example, roll on cream, guys, it's the same 300 milligram roll on cream as eight and a 10 other products out there, think about that you're not getting anything special. There's no There's no technology, innovation,

and there was no way to tell if it was really 300 MGS coming through for me how it was produced or any of it. It was a couple of scribbles on the back. And I was really kind of frustrated because you're you. You wonder what you're putting in you're really not sure of CBD. Is it healthy? Is it good for you, you hear things, but there was no proof to back that up?

Yeah, absolutely. Like, again, a previous podcast, which is why you need to listen to every single one of ours is we talked about transparency, right, and honesty, right? And that our products, unlike many others have a QR code that you can actually scan with your smartphone and shows the full panel testing. And most important is the safety and then the potency of meaning how many milligrams of CBD you're getting in per serving basis or in the complete package, ie a tincture or a roll on

right. So there, so I ended up buying it almost $40 for a cream or 48 something and it was very small amount of the cream. And so I put it on my knees. And I was I used it and he said I'd use it for at least a month which I did. And it was I felt like I was it was snake oil. It was like oh yeah, there's magic stuff and you'll be able to do and there was nothing no difference at all. And it was a little frustrating but it I guess that's my first dive into the CBD world. I don't know if you see that.

Yeah, Rob I see often. I mean, it's a common thing you hear I tried CBD And in filling thing, you know, it's like well, it's more than likely because you tried a gas station or vanilla ice cream or a me to CBD product versus a product that's was science behind it that actually has been formulated to have a real effect. And it has a high milligram content. I mean, for example, you're a really good role on has the higher the milligram content, the more effective and more powerful that product can be doesn't always mean it is but it can

be so what is what is the differentiator and that

is the quality of the hemp CBD to begin with, right so quality of organically grown and harvested and cultivated and then processed correctly. So it's, it's able to be absorbed in your body. And it's also you know, the size of the molecule you'll hear a lot of out there the new buzzword and CBD is Nano, Nano, Nano, Nano. And all nano means really is something smaller than something else. Whereas, that's what it means. So it's this this latest buzz term and industry to help sell something, it doesn't matter if it's Nano, if it's still not the right size molecule, and not has not been formulated to be completely absorbed or digested into your body.

Right so I tried it you know 300 MGS it's not it's not that very there's not very potent not very strong and I just felt like there was nothing being absorbed. And there was no gain for me personally. So when I tried your product, I was shocked because you're like hey I have this new thing it's a nanotechnology which immediately I was like oh god please. But um it was the roll on a you know I did not want to take an ingestible at first and so I tried the roll on and you know most people take a CBD and they're like oh my gosh, I expect by tomorrow this is going to be great. And I noticed about three weeks later an enormous difference enormous difference in my running and no swelling in there no problems with the knees and that was like a huge thing. It was a huge and that was with the roll on. So why does the roll on work so well?

Well the roll on and all the indeed CBD products Rob that have your brand you know your name on them from the roll on to the inflammation body cream to the premium oil tinctures to the gourmet gummies they all utilize a technology and it isn't nanotechnology, but it's a my cell nano and my cell means pre digested digest. So it means we have in there's very very big pharmaceutical and beauty skin products. Like for example Revlon has a micelle type of product out now. My cell means pre digested so we are able with our technology through over a decade of science and working with the best partners in the world. I mean talking about Health Canada and Big Pharma and big nutraceutical companies. It's a micelle technologies where we take the cannabinoids which I mentioned comes from the plant it's like a plant vitamin cannabinoids a plant by we take a cannabinoid and we might realize it means we pre digest it and make it a much much much smaller particle size than it was before. So then when it comes into contact on your skin for like for like a subdermal application or an ingestible that it is up to 10 times faster absorption than other CBD products because of the size of the molecule and how it's been formulated to absorb immediately into your body

subdermal What do you mean sub Derma topical

so a topical roll on or topical creams is subdermal type of application

so in a DT we have to I believe, insanely incredible applications that way we have the roll on and the cream. Could you explain the difference between those

two? Yeah, absolutely. So the the roll on is a three ounce roll on. It's a 900 milligram roll on and the four ounce which is 25% more of the inflammation body cream is 1200 milligrams. Now we say pain relief, we actually have a pain relief claim on the roll on and then inflammation relief claim on the body cream which is which is amazing because it's very, very hard to do. And the roll on is again 900 milligrams of CBD and it's a pain relief where it works specifically on the CB one CB two receptors in your body where He had been known in Big Pharma has known this for years. Rob Right. Those are receptors that regulate your pain. So Tylenol for example, aspirin, even drugs over the counter drugs work on cb cb one CB two receptors, but so does our CBD cream. And that's what's so amazing because it's natural. It's from a plant.

So if I'm running, you know and enjoy running or other people that say they're like swimming or biking or any of that, what should they be looking to use? Right away? If you were to recommend something? Would it be more the roll on? Or would it be more their cream? What do you find most effective?

You know, Rob, honestly, the the honest truth is they're both highly effective. men seem to gravitate to the roll on more. Right. I think it's just you know, throughout the years, we've reviewed roll ons, you know, we use Ben gays and stuff like that before a rolling application. A Roman is a little more specific, right? It can be very specific to an elbow or to a knee, because because of the application. And it has a pain relief claim meaning it's formulated more for pain and inflammation. And there's a big difference between generalized pain Yeah, and specific inflammation because when you have inflammation, that's if you have a soreness, then it goes to inflammation, then inflammation manifests itself into arthritis,

right? So if you have that inflammation, you're the body its body way of protecting and healing itself. But that limits or restricts blood flow to the area. So it doesn't have that healing property as well. So what is the CBD do

so CBD is and you know, there's this is wide, widely known for the last five years, you know, CBD in general, especially when you have a mice analyzed advanced absorption technology like ours, right? It's for anxiety is for stress is for pain relief, inflammation relief, and just overall homeostasis for general wellness. Right, so though, that's how CBD again, plant vitamin, yeah, natural works in your body is for your stress, pain relief, inflammation, relief and anxiety, it works directly on those benefits in your body. And so when you have the roll on, and it's specific for pain, or inflammation you can put on and it will work within literally Oh, you'll feel a difference within minutes. Right? I mean, very quickly, because the absorption ability, and it lasts for you know, three to four hours.

Now, can it work on something like so we know, at least in my case, with the knees with the running with all the bit? How about for somebody with a back issue? What do you what do you like to do there with it?

Yeah, you know, for for a back issue, you just actually apply the roll on directly to this to the spot that sore or inflamed it, it helps relax the muscles, and it helps with the inflammation and the soreness and the pain. And you mean we've had 1000s of people been using these products that within minutes say that they feel a difference, the pains gone away because again of how quickly it works as formulated for advanced absorption. And that's the big deal doesn't matter how much of anything you put in your body if you can absorb it right and get the benefits quickly. It doesn't do you any good. Yeah, and that's the whole that is the secret sauce. That's what makes an entity CBD so different than other products is the safety and how powerful it is in the Quick absorbing absorption ability.

Yeah, I was I was out to eat the other night with a couple of members of the Philadelphia Eagles and they were talking about how hard it is you know their their trainings or OTAs or stuff you know you don't have to report you have to report if you want a job but they were talking about how hard it is on their body and that they sleep so much longer and that you know of course they want to you know try stuff with zero THC don't test positive for anything. And that's one of the few things that's a definitely a differentiator between us and someone else because we show that it won't test for anything

100% 00 THC and all of the indie rock Floyd CBD products and we prove that through our QR code, we prove it through our testing. We could never make that statement. You know if we did not have if that wasn't the truth and if we couldn't back that up.

Yeah, they were talking about one of the guys was saying that His back's been off and so he's been using the cream on his back and then ice and heat and ice and heat but leaving the cream on throughout that he found like that gave him a lot of movement reduces swelling and took away a lot of the pain. So that makes sense

ABS Willie I mean you know I love all of our products they're all formulae for specific you know ailments, health and wellness and different forms of absorption different forms of delivery, right because some people love subdermal topical skin applications Some people love underneath the tongue where it's absorbing into the into mucous membrane into your bloodstream. Some people love edibles. But what's really important to understand about the three ounce pain relief, prolong the four ounce inflammation, body cream is not just the, you know, almost immediate relief that they receive. But their recovery for athletes to recovery for anybody from a sore back to someone come through rehab to professional athlete to my son who's 17 playing football and soccer is the ability to recover quicker, naturally, Rob cm so important that for me understand the power of a natural plant that is safe and non addictive, non habit forming like a lot of these drugs, you know, one out of three Americans take an aspirin or Tylenol every single day. Wow, I didn't know that every single day, if you could take our app or roll on every single day for that same relief, without having to take a drug or something that's a side effect that's completely new, and has all these other wonderful, you know, health and wellness benefits. That's a huge win. And that's, that's, that's what we have the ability to offer people.

No, I love it. I think it's brilliant. And again, as you look at in a dt, and you're looking to try a CBD, I encourage you all to give it the try that I did use it in an area, use it topically and just see how it does for you. It is strong and as powerful, it is noticeable. And I've had huge, huge wins just from using it. So I know that I adore the product. And that's one of the biggest reasons I do

well, you know, we absolutely important for people to try to topical creams, again, you know, a lot of people a lot of women particularly like de France, by Ukraine because they can apply it, you know, over their body a lot more than just with a roll on application. So that's one of the reasons we formulate but it's important understand that we put you know synergistic ingredients along with our CBD, our advanced absorption CBD, we have menthol, we have eucalyptus, we have aloe vera, for example. That helped with all the other you know benefits for the pain and inflammation relief with the CBD. is truly two amazing topical creams that you can use anywhere from ages you know, we talked about safety Rob, we have people that are five you know putting five year old children because it is natural and safe. All the way up to 99 year old grandmas and grandpas that need you know that need the same healing and the health benefits from our topical creams.

Well, I love it and I encourage everyone to give it a shot you know, the best way to find this of course is the website and a DT Rob floyd.com and that is I n e di t and a dt. We also can be found on Instagram and Tiktok at Rob Floyd CBD and on YouTube on Rob Floyd. So you know I I love being here. I love doing this.
