Read on for a deeper dive into the world of broad-spectrum hemp, as well as a rundown of some of the best broad-spectrum hemp CBD products for a THC-free chill. The THC is typically removed during the extraction process, and batches are then third-party tested to ensure 0.0% THC, which is the defining quality of “broad-spectrum.” According to Gordon, if you’re unsure whether a product is full or broad-spectrum, it’s best to take a look at a product’s third-party test results—and definitely steer clear of any products that don’t share that information publicly on their website....

Also sometimes referred to as “worry work” or “cognitive labor,” the mental load is about not the physical tasks but rather the overseeing of those tasks. It’s being the one in charge of having the never-ending list of to-do items constantly running in your head, remembering what needs to get done and when, delegating all the tasks to respective family members, and making sure they actually get done.

Just make sure to always consult your doctor before making any changes to your treatment or medications. The best way to get the benefit of turmeric is to cook with it....

Finding a pair of running shoes that suit your feet, offer the right amount of cushion, and help elevate your stride makes all the difference in your run (trust me, as a health and fitness editor, I’ve tried a lot of sneakers). “You want to take time to find the right fit, as the shoe can help prevent injuries and improve your performance,” running coach Emily Fayette, CPT, previously shared with mbg....

Many of the best breakup guides tell the brokenhearted to lean on their friends. But what if you’re the friend they tap on, and you have no clue where to start? As a friend, you may feel a heart tug to help but you don’t know how. You may feel compelled to share comforting words but hesitate because you don’t want to say the wrong thing.
