Stirling CBD Discusses Different Cannabinoid Compounds in the Hemp Plant – What Benefits Can Be Gained From It?
What medical uses can chiropractors get from cannabinoid compounds?

CARY, N.C. - November 18, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Stirling CBD, the leader in all natural and the most potent CBD markets available, discusses the myriad of health advantages and other potential medical gains from cannabinoids and its compounds.  

In 1942, American chemist Roger Adams made a breakthrough by discovering cannabinoids in the cannabis plant. Since then, more than 115-plus cannabinoids have been identified in cannabis. 

The large number of cannabinoids begs the question: "How can people benefit from them?

CBD (Cannabidiol)

CBD is the second most prevalent compound in cannabis sativa plants, which includes the federally legal industrial hemp. CBD is found in many products sold in the market, with numerous research studies conducted on its efficiency. 

Two prescription drugs based on CBD have been developed after rigorous clinical trials. Other possible benefits of CBD include reducing anxiety, pain, inflammation, and nausea. 

CBN (Cannabinol) 

CBN is a rare cannabinoid. It originates from the THC compound, which degrades into CBN due to environmental exposure. Clinical trials on CBN showed its probable effectiveness in aiding sleep and pain relief. 

Additional studies are being conducted to test CBN's antibiotic properties, which show neuroprotective abilities.

CBG (Cannabigerol)

Mature hemp plants contain no more than 1% of CBG. Despite the low quantities of CBG compounds in industrial hemp, CBG is vital. It starts as Cannabigerolic acid and then converts into CBG.

CBGA then breaks down further into THCA and CBDA, the precursors of THC and CBD. 

Among the many medical uses of CBG, it has been known to boost appetite and reduce inflammation. It can also improve gastrointestinal issues. Work as a neuroprotectant while having antibacterial properties

CBGA (Cannabigerolic Acid)
Also known as the mother of all cannabinoids, it starts as the first compound created by the cannabis plant via photosynthesis. After enzyme exposure, CBGA is broken down into CBDA, THCA, and other secondary metabolites. Clinical studies show that CBGA shows promising results in the medical field. Though further research is needed to ascertain its benefits to human health.

Aside from the benefits mentioned, CBGA has anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antibacterial properties.

CBDA (Cannabidiolic Acid)

As CBGA is exposed to enzymatic activity, it turns into CBDA, THCA, and CBCA. CBDA is the precursor of the well-researched CBD. Like CBD, CBDA does not cause intoxication; it is also non-impairing. Over the last decade, scientists have done research on the effects of CBDA. 

They've found that CBDA can slow down overactive brain activity. It also relieves inflammation, prevents nausea, and slows down too rapid cell growth.

With all the incredible properties cannabinoids offer to the human body, it's no surprise that people want to incorporate cannabinoids into their lives. Products like CBD gummies, CBGA capsules, CBD lotions, and many others have made it easier for people to reap the benefits of cannabinoids.

Founded in 2014 in Santa Cruz, California, as a premium cannabis flower company, Stirling launched its first CBD products in 2018. Stirling continues to lead in new product innovation and quality and sells a full lineup of Hemp-Based CBD, Delta 8 THC, and Delta 9 THC Products.

Federal Lawsuit Funded by We The Patriots USA Filed Against Takeda Pharmaceuticals

Federal Lawsuit Funded by We The Patriots USA Filed Against Takeda Pharmaceuticals
Employees allege firing after religious exemptions to covid shot mandate were denied

BOSTON - November 18, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

A federal lawsuit was filed today in the U.S. District Court of Massachusetts against Takeda Pharmaceuticals, alleging religious discrimination. A group of employees who claim they were fired for religious discrimination brought the lawsuit filed by the law firms Pattis and Smith and Mendenhall Law Group, alleging that the pharma giant unlawfully denied their requests for a religious exemption to the company's covid shot mandate, in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The lawsuit details how each of the employees (who are all Christians) requested to be exempt from the mandate on religious grounds and, after a series of questions from a company representative regarding the sincerity of their beliefs, had their accommodation requests denied. Each of the employees was subsequently terminated.

According to the complaint, the company denied the religious exemption requests either because it doubted the sincerity of the employee's beliefs, or because it would purportedly work an "undue hardship" on the company to accommodate the employees. The complaint claims that Takeda asserted that to accommodate the employee-plaintiffs who worked in the field directly with clients would place the company at a particular disadvantage as compared to its competitors, since to grant the accommodation would mean that the employees would have to work remotely, rather than face-to-face with clients. However, the complaint also alleges that Takeda's industry competitors widely granted religious exemptions to similarly-situated employees, calling into question Takeda's claim of undue hardship. Moreover, the complaint contends that Takeda did grant medical exemptions to employees, further undermining its position that granting religious exemptions would be harmful to its business interests.

We The Patriots USA, Inc., a nonprofit public interest law firm, funded the litigation and released a statement late Thursday: "Our fervent hope is that this lawsuit brings to light the fact that so many people continue to suffer as a result of the decisions that were made during the last two years. For them, the covid crisis is far from over. We are confident that we will obtain a victory for religious freedom that will ensure that discrimination against those with religious beliefs opposed to certain vaccinations is never justified in the eyes of the law." We The Patriots USA is requesting donations to help defray the cost of this lawsuit and its other litigation efforts, and is also asking its supporters to sign the petition to make discrimination based on vaccination status illegal.

Northwestern Mutual: 7 Ways to Use a Bonus

Northwestern Mutual: 7 Ways to Use a Bonus
MILWAUKEE - November 17, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Employees who just received a bonus at work might be wondering how to spend (or save) it. Here are a few options to consider when deciding what to do with funds from a bonus payment:

1. Save it

A bonus is a great opportunity to pad a savings account or build out an emergency fund. Bonus recipients may also see this as a chance to sock the money away and start saving for something big; this could mean saving more for retirement or another long-term financial goal like a down payment on a house or a car. 

2. Invest it

A bonus can also be an opportunity for savers to put more in their 401(k), IRA, or other retirement investments. Investors who have already maxed out their 401(k) contributions for the year or who just want to explore other avenues for investments may also want to invest the money outside of their retirement accounts. If investors are working with an advisor, the financial advisor may be able to assist in choosing stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or other assets. 

3. Use it to pay down debt

A cash infusion can be a good occasion to pay off any outstanding debts. It may be enough to pay off the last of student loan debt or the rest of a car loan. People with high-interest debt, like credit card debt, can use their bonus to pay it down and save money on interest in the long run.

5. Make a down payment on a big purchase

A bonus could help someone reach a big financial goal they've been saving for. If a bonus is big enough, and the buyer will be able to consistently afford the monthly payments after the down payment, it could be a good time to make a down payment on a big purchase like a house or a car. 

6. Take a vacation

Anyone who has been working hard and hasn't had a chance to take a break might see a bonus as a chance to fund a relaxing vacation. Whether this is a dream vacation or a quick weekend trip to somewhere local, this is an opportunity to take time to recharge and come back to work refreshed and ready to take on new challenges.

7. Engage in lifelong learning

One of the most important things anyone can do with a bonus is invest in themselves. This could mean using the bonus to pay for lifelong learning, such as classes, seminars, or conferences. Doing this can lead to learning new skills, staying up-to-date in an industry, and meeting new people. Plus, it's a great way to network.

Here’s Why Quality Sleepwear is Important for Good Sleep

Here’s Why Quality Sleepwear is Important for Good Sleep
Sleepwear can significantly enhance the quality of sleep of a person, with breathable fabrics promoting relaxation and regulating the body temperature throughout the night.

MELBOURNE, Australia - November 18, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Leading a healthy lifestyle doesn't just involve eating right, exercising and reducing stress. Insufficient or poor-quality sleep can result in long-term health consequences. According to Gingerlilly, designer of luxurious women's sleepwear, the right pyjamas can be a game-changer when it comes to getting a good night's sleep. 

Gingerlilly says the key to good sleep is comfort, and pyjama fabric is an important consideration. Choosing breathable, natural fabrics that are soft and naturally cooling will help to regulate body temperature throughout the night. 

Luxurious fabrics such as silk and linen are super soft and breathable, explains Gingerlilly. These natural fabrics have heat and moisture-wicking properties, making them ideal for hot sleepers. 

Breathable fabrics are also important for preventing irritation and bacteria build-up, as well as overall discomfort. Bamboo is a surprisingly soft, naturally cooling fabric that is also hypoallergenic with antibacterial and anti-fungal properties, plus this eco-friendly material is also gorgeously soft to wear, says Gingerlilly.

Some other quality fabrics ideal for inducing a good night's sleep include modal, which is made from the pulp from Beech trees and has a super soft, luxurious feel, while viscose is sustainable and great at absorbing sweat. Sustainable and good for the planet, these highly breathable fabrics keep sleepers cool, dry and comfortable, explains Gingerlilly. 

The designer, who ships luxurious women's pyjamas Australia-wide, says there are a few things people should avoid wearing to bed if they want to get a quality sleep. Tight clothing, elastic that's too tight and bras can cause discomfort and trap body heat. 

Dead skin cells are shed while sleeping, which, combined with sweat and the body's natural oils, can irritate the skin, disrupting sleep. Gingerlilly points out the importance of regularly washing PJs and steering clear of fragrant detergents and fabric softeners that can trigger allergies or rashes, interfering with sleep. 

Known for designing luxurious, chic sleepwear and loungewear, Gingerlilly products are made using sustainable fabrics that provide ultimate comfort for sleeping. To discover the best range of pyjamas Australia-wide, visit Gingerlilly online.

Award-Winning Volans Tequila Launches Its First Limited-Edition 6-Year Extra Añejo

Award-Winning Volans Tequila Launches Its First Limited-Edition 6-Year Extra Añejo
Master crafted by renowned Tequila distiller Felipe Camarena, the first-ever Limited-Edition 6-year Extra Añejo Tequila from award-winning Volans Tequila is making its sought-after debut in select shops, restaurants, and bars beginning November 2022.

GUADALAJARA, Mexico - November 17, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

An exquisite spirit born in partnership with famed Jalisco highlands distillery El Pandillo, crafted from select 100% Blue Weber agaves estate ripened in the rich red soils of Jesús Maria. "Felipe's innovative approach and time-honored traditions aligned perfectly in the Tequila's crafting and aging process," explained Volans co-owner Chad Allen. "We are excited to release this truly exceptional 6-year Extra Añejo Tequila." 

Volans Tequila worked with renowned Mexican artist Eduardo Mejia to create a captivating image representing time and family legacy, bringing together the story of their family roots with the iconic El Pandillo Distillery. 

Barreled in 2016 and originally earmarked for aging five years in American White Oak ex-Bourbon casks, master distiller Felipe Camarena declared after a 2021 tasting, "I am not sure when, but this Tequila will become an aged masterpiece." Felipe decided to extend the aging process, a consequential decision, as each year of aging means less Tequila due to evaporation of the angel's share. "In early Spring 2022, after six years in barrels, our masterpiece was born," said Volans co-owner Cristina Allen.  

It is described as having an enticing light caramel color, revealing a complex body and lavish layers of floral, red fruit, berries, citrus, baking spices, creme brulee, and subtle butterscotch flavors balanced with mineral and cask notes. 

A first sip awakens the palate with fruit notes, a second sip warms the soul with rounded heat and luscious flavors, and a third sip settles the mind with a long-lasting, elegant finish steeped in terroir.   

The newest star in the Volans collection, the 6-year Extra Añejo was bottled at 43% ABV and is presented in a 700ml bottle and unique gift box. This limited edition has only 1,960 bottles in the U.S. with a target shelf price of $499 and is now available in select markets just in time for the holidays.

About Volans Tequila

Born in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, Volans Tequila is handcrafted by master distiller Felipe J. Camarena at El Pandillo Distillery NOM-1579. The Camarena family, along with the Allen family, founders of Volans Tequila and Idaho's Three Rivers Ranch, are fourth-generation family-owned businesses dedicated to making the best 100% Blue Weber Agave Tequila in Mexico. Volans Tequila is confirmed additive-free and made with pride using historical and traditional methods that embrace innovation and sustainability. Volans Tequila is available at fine shops, restaurants, bars, and resorts in the United States, Mexico, and Australia.

Gifting Brands Joins Fashion Impact Fund for #FASHIONGIVES Campaign on GivingTuesday
Leveraging Fashion for the Greater Good


Gifting Brands

Gifting Brands is joining the Fashion Impact Fund to support the #FASHIONGIVES campaign as part of GivingTuesday.

DALLAS - November 17, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

A pioneering new way to shop by combining philanthropy with luxury and designer brands online, Gifting Brands is joining the Fashion Impact Fund to support the #FASHIONGIVES campaign as part of the global GivingTuesday movement on Nov. 29. 

Gifting Brands' founder and CEO Jeannie Barsam left the corporate world in 2016 after executive roles in Fortune 500 retailers, including Gap Inc., Michaels, Talbot's and Signet Jewelers. Inspired to create more than just a fashion business, Gifting Brands was born out of a passion for helping women, children and families in need with an innovative solution to an ongoing problem in the fashion world—excess inventory.

Brands partner with Gifting Brands to donate inventory, consumers shop, and proceeds go directly to causes that empower and support women and children.

Barsam said partnering with Fashion Impact Fund and the #FASHIONGIVES campaign was another opportunity to live out the organization's mission and continue to drive a positive impact.

"While Gifting Brands may seem like a regular e-commerce website, our mission is to give all of the profits from our sales to charity. We use fashion as a force for good—and team up with nonprofits to make our world better," said Barsam. "Partnering with the #FASHIONGIVES was the perfect fit for us."

#FASHIONGIVES supports the Fashion Impact Fund's mission to provide grants to female founders, leading sustainable solutions in fashion. Women's Philanthropy Institute found that only 1.9% of charitable giving in the U.S. goes to women's and girls' organizations. #FASHIONGIVES is committed to empowering female founders that are transforming fashion as a force for good.

"GivingTuesday inspires people all around the world to embrace their power to drive progress around the causes they care about, not just on one day but throughout the year," said Asha Curran, GivingTuesday's CEO, and co-founder. "With country and community leaders, millions of organizations, and countless givers of all kinds, GivingTuesday is creating a shared space where we can see the radical implications of a more generous world."

Since Gifting Brands' launch in 2020, the organization has raised over $80,000 for nonprofits focused on supporting women and children through clean water, education, housing and safety from domestic violence and trafficking.

Gifting Brands has also partnered with Market.Live to create a new live show called "Giving Tuesday Live" with the purpose of giving charities, brands, and consumers a platform to come together to make an impact and raise money for charities that are making a difference in the world.

"Knowing that your purchases help others in need is a special way of shopping. It's like superfood for your soul," said Barsam. "GivingTuesday is a way to start helping others through sustainable and charitable shopping."
