Get Started Product Benefits Science
We've all been there: a night out with friends, filled with laughter, a few drinks, and good times. But then the next morning comes, and you're left with a lingering headache and a feeling of dread known as hang-xiety. If you’re like us, you know that hang-xiety is a very real thing that seems to get worse as we get older. Gone are the days of all-nighters, but these days it seems that even 2-3 drinks, or just the wrong drink can lead to a combination of physical symptoms, such as dehydration and inflammation, and emotional symptoms, such as stress and anxiety that are collectively known as hang-xiety.
The good news is that there are ways to enjoy a night out without suffering the next morning. One of the most effective methods is to mix-up your go-to drink and indulge in some of the fantastic non-alcoholic cocktails, brews, and seltzers being crafted these days. Some of our personal favorites from our exploration into Dry January this year include: Wilderton Botanical NA Spirits, Athletic Brewing NA Beer, De Soi NA Aperitifs, For Bitter For Worse Spritz, and Pelican Hopped-Infused Sparkling Water.
Another way to combat hang-xiety is by integrating CBD into your night-out or morning-after routine. When you drink alcohol, your body releases cytokines, which are inflammatory molecules that can cause inflammation in your body. CBD can help to reduce the amount of cytokines your body produces, thereby reducing inflammation, anxiety, and other symptoms, and can help your body fight off the effects of hang-xiety before they start.
Here’s our guide on how to use Mendi CBD to sip without suffering on your next night out:
When beginning your night out, grab 1-2 CBD Gummies to enjoy before or between drinks. These gummies are not only a tasty and discreet treat, but will also kick-start an anti-inflammatory response within your body to fight off the inflammation typically caused by alcohol consumption.
Before the end of the night we recommend a 1/2 to Full dropper of the CBD Sleep Tincture. This product is specifically formulate to help you fall asleep faster, and more importantly, connect your sleep cycles and stay asleep through the night. This will help you combat those pesky midnight wake ups, dry mouth, and overheating that can occur after drinking. The CBD in the tincture will also combat inflammation throughout the night so you wake up feeling refreshed and like yourself.
If you wake up in the morning with feelings of hang-xiety, the best way to combat the symptoms and get back on track is with the CBD Stress Tablet. Drop one tablet into 8-12oz of water to help hydrate, destress, and start your day feeling focused. The Grapefruit lavender flavor is refreshing and calming at the same time.
If you’re in immediate need of relief, we recommend the CBD Stress Tincture, using a 1/2 to Full dropper under your tongue for 1 minute and you’ll get the relief you need from inflammation and stress within 15 minutes.
Hang-xiety is a real thing, but it's not something you have to suffer through. By drinking responsibly, mixing up your night with some NA options and using Mendi CBD products the night of and morning after, you can combat inflammation and anxiety and enjoy a night out without the negative consequences. Cheers to more fun evenings with the people we love!
