School is out and the weather is great. It is time to enjoy the great outdoors and go camping!

Dig the tent out of the garage and gather up the sleeping bags and fishing poles. Don’t forget to put pure CBD on your checklist of necessary gear. Here are five reasons you should take CBD on your next camping trip.

Bug Bites

There are over 3,500 different species of pesky little mosquitoes worldwide. Approximately 175  of these are located just in North America. When a mosquito bites the skin, insect saliva penetrates the epidermal layer and the body identifies this saliva as a foreign substance. Thus inciting an inflammatory response. Some studies have shown effective use of CBD drops on the site of the bug bite, but an application of Receptra Targeted Topical may have longer-lasting effects. 

Cool Sun Burns

No one wants to end up with a painful sunburn, but sometimes the excitement of the outdoors can cause us to forget the UV protection. The pressure, heat, swelling and increased sensitivity caused by a sunburn can really make your camping trip uncomfortable. CBD is known to interact with endocannabinoid receptors located underneath the skin to inhibit enzymes that block the production of the pain inhibiting molecule “anandamide.” Even better, Receptra Body Butter also includes aloe vera as its first ingredient. The combination of CBD and aloe vera may be exactly what your skin needs. This may also be helpful if a flaming marshmallow flies in your direction!

Get More Restful Sleep 

Between the bumpy ground, outside temperature, snoring of your camping companions and the subconscious threat of a sasquatch encounter, it can sometimes be difficult to fall asleep. The sounds of nature can be soothing, but still quite distracting. Receptra CBD oil taken sublingually before bed may give you that extra nudge of calmness that you need to get some rest. Pure CBD oil will not make you groggy. So hypothetically, if Bigfoot did wander into your camping space you would wake up fast enough to respond (i.e., panic!). 

Soothe Muscle Soreness

Unless you are camping in a fully-stocked cabin that you drove to, there is a good chance that hiking, fishing or tent pitching may be part of your adventure. All of these physical activities could leave your muscles exhausted. After the adrenaline wears off, you may start to feel the fatigue as well as the bruising from that log you tripped over. Using Receptra CBD oil sublingually and Receptra Targeted Topical on your sore spots may be just what you need to naturally restore balance and promote recovery.

Keep Your Energy Up

Though it can have calming properties, CBD actually interacts with some of the same receptors as caffeine. Many people find that starting their day with pure CBD oil gives them an extra boost of focus and puts some pep in their step. After a long night of singing around the campfire, CBD could help you get going again and ready for another day of adventures!

Chill Out

The prep work necessary to create the perfect camping trip can be extremely stressful. There are so many things to remember when far away from the comforts of your own home and a grocery store. Just relax. CBD may be able to help, and honestly, if you forget the graham crackers, marshmallows and chocolate are still going to taste awesome.

Camping is always a great adventure. Camping with pure CBD oil could make it an even better adventure!
