Our Story

It started simply: Find a better way to feel better. Combining CBD with adaptogens back in 2017, our Founder stumbled on something unique, but that would only be the beginning of what turned out to be a much greater mission.

From the Founder

TONIC was born out of necessity. I was looking for a natural way to manage my anxiety and depression. Something that could help me like cannabis had, but would be workday-friendly.
My work as a personal trainer and health coach provided me with a pretty deep knowledge on herbal remedies. Adaptogens like ashwagandha were something I used myself and recommended to my clients.
When I learned about CBD, I decided to give what I honestly thought of as "fake weed" a shot. I was shocked at how well it actually worked, but the lightbulb moment didn't happen until I really took the time to understand how CBD and the Endocannabinoid System were actually working to provide these marked results.
I began combining CBD with ashwagandha root because I realized they have similar effects, but take different pathways to get there. The idea was that together they could cover more ground, doubling down on each other’s effects to create a stress-relieving, mood-boosting, adaptogenic powerhouse … and that’s exactly what happened.

“The results were lifechanging and that’s when I knew I had to share this with the world. That’s how the O.G. got its name – it was the original blend of CBD and ashwagandha that started it all”
