Mission C is the brand on a mission to help people contrast stress, a common cause of many concerns, with a unique CBD range for your complete well-being.
How Can CBD Help Managing Stress?
During the past two years in the UK, more and more people have turned to CBD oil as a form of stress management. CBD is a naturally occurring cannabinoid of the hemp plant which is known to alleviate symptoms of anxiety and stress.
Stress is primarily a physical response to a situation and it can affect us in many ways: from a poor night’s sleep, brain fog and periods of anxiety to physical pain, inflammation and skin irritations. If we experience stress for prolonged periods, it can become seriously detrimental to well-being, with raised cortisol levels leading to high blood sugar and blood pressure.
CBD is capable of influencing your stress levels by interacting with your endocannabinoid system – a complex biological system that is responsible for regulating mood, appetite, sleep, metabolism and many more physiological and neurological processes. Research has shown that CBD’s interaction with endocannabinoid receptors can result in the uptake of serotonin, known as the ‘happy hormone’ since it is linked to feelings of happiness, contentment and general wellness.
About Mission C
MISSION C is an independent start-up business based in Manchester with a unique CBD range and the goal of educating and debunking misconceptions about the use of CBD oil and CBD-based products. Mission C has three lifestyle ranges – skincare, health, and sport – developed by combining leading scientific research and careful consultation with scientists and healthcare specialists, natural ingredients and world-class quality. All Mission C products are designed to slip effortlessly into your routine to target everyday stress, no matter your lifestyle. Mission C products are vegan-friendly, cruelty-free, and THC-free, and have been triple lab-tested to guarantee the highest level of purity.
With a lack of awareness and education remaining a problem in the industry, the UK-based start-up is leading a movement to inspire others to share their positive experiences from using the products and in turn, help educate others. Mission C Founder, Qes Hussain, said: “The initial concept for Mission C was inspired by a close family member of mine who experienced a positive impact of using CBD products to help soften and calm their symptoms of dementia. It surprised me that CBD was so widely misunderstood and carried with it a wave of misconceptions around its legality and also the mental and physical benefits it can have."
About Mission C CBD Ranges
Mission C has chosen botanically sourced ingredients for their holistic healing and anti-stress qualities including hemp and carrier oil. Hemp is a variety of cannabis sativa plant species and possesses natural ingredients that can help improve sleep and focus and reduce pain. CBD oil is a herbal remedy that helps boost energy levels, focus and mood.
Natural herbs, roots, and mushrooms such as ashwagandha, echinacea, turmeric, and passionflower act as natural biological regulators that help improve our overall mental and physical capacity. The skincare herbs and fragrances included in the formulas nourish and heal the skin, as well as relieve pain and anxiety. Mission C also included soothing natural ingredients such as aloe vera, lavender, rosehip and peppermint from various regions around the world in the development of its ranges.
All these combine to create a collection of products developed to pamper you on the inside and out, helping you to lead a healthier and happier lifestyle.
Staying true to its natural ingredients list, the packaging has also been developed with renewable materials and is 100% recyclable. The design has been given a touch of rawness to showcase its closeness to nature and purchasers will see an “Create Change” message when they open the box to offer a note of positivity.
