CBD Usage Trends During the Coronavirus Pandemic
In a year of uncertainty with a life-threatening pandemic and a turbulent presidential election, it is no surprise that stress levels have peaked for most Americans.
To deal with elevated levels of stress and anxiety, a Chicago based research firm found that 20% of US consumers are utilizing CBD products as a direct result of Covis-19. The results of the study were published in Hemp Industry Daily and demonstrate how both new and current CBD consumers are integrating CBD into their mental health and wellness regiments.
Across the study group of nearly 3,000 multi state consumers the research group found that 1 in 5 consumers indicated they are purchasing more CBD products during the pandemic and spend an average of $900 per year on CBD products. They also revealed they plan to continue CBD usage post pandemic.
