Beauty is only skin deep,but CBD gets even deeper…
The Greater Coconut Council or GCC was a once proud and powerful guild that controlled all coconuts as far away as Thailand. It had it’s hand in everything coconut related and even employed the brightest minds on Madison Avenue to put the good word on the street about coconuts. It managed to even get a picture of a lone coconut sitting on a beach chair to grace the cover of Sports Illustrated. (Let us also forget about the short lived Coconut Council mascot, “Koko the Coconut” – a poorly conceived and ultimately racist stereotype of a Polynesian aboriginal whose sole purpose in life was to eat coconuts.)
The high life soon came to a crashing halt once the lawsuits came pouring in. Nice old couples vacationing from Indiana were getting clonked on the head by errant coconuts in alarming numbers. The glory days had come to a close and now the once dominant GCC has been relegated to a back office inside a San Fernando Valley dental building.
Then one day in walks this slow talking fella’ from the hills of Humboldt. Talking about how CBD is the next big thing in pain relief and freedom from anxiety. A couple of the coconut suits perked their heads up and decided it was time for a great meeting of the minds. A revival!
From that Coconut CBD Topicals was born, combining the exotic and purifying elements of the majestic coconut along with the anti-inflammatory properties of non-psychoactive CBD. Kindred spirits in the war on pain and monotony. Better late than never.
