The Mints

The 20 mg on the label refers to 20 mg of hemp extract (full‑spectrum) per mint — not 20 mg of pure CBD. The exact CBD amount per mint is shown on the third‑party lab report (COA) available via the QR code on the tin.

Yes — every package has a QR code that links to batch‑specific Certificates of Analysis, and those COAs report full cannabinoid potency/profile (including Total THC) and include contaminant panels for pesticides, heavy metals, microbials, mycotoxins and residual solvents. The COAs are from ISO 17025‑accredited third‑party labs (see our Lab Tests page and an example Mint batch COA such as Batch 25015A). [1][2]

We don’t recommend The Mints for people who must pass standard workplace urine THC tests. These are full‑spectrum hemp mints (listed at 20 mg hemp extract per mint) and can contain trace THC; with repeated use or individual variation in metabolism, THC metabolites can accumulate and trigger a positive urine screen. Batch third‑party lab results are available via the QR code on the tin if you need exact THC content for a specific purchase.

You’ll typically notice The Mints within about 20 minutes (many customers report feeling effects in under 20 minutes thanks to the liposomal delivery). Effects usually last a few hours — most users experience a benefit window roughly 2–4 hours, while edible-style products can run longer (sometimes 3–6 hours); individual factors (metabolism, food, dose) will change timing.

We formulate The Mints using “liposomal encapsulation” to speed absorption, but we do not publish the exact lipids/phospholipids, vesicle/particle size, or the third‑party liposome vendor/technology on the product page or COA — the QR code on packaging links to potency/contaminant lab results, not formulation analytics. There are independent, peer‑reviewed and pilot studies showing liposomal CBD preparations can produce higher blood levels and faster absorption than non‑liposomal oral CBD (small human crossover and animal PK studies), but Feals has not published a head‑to‑head pharmacokinetic/bioavailability study directly comparing The Mints to our standard oral tincture. If you need formulation certificates (phospholipid source, particle size, vendor) we can flag this request internally for further transparency.

We list only “mushroom mycelium” in The Mints’ ingredient panel — no species name (e.g., reishi, lion’s mane) or extract standard is specified on the product page or in our Help Center. [1][2] The mycelium’s stated role is organoleptic: it’s used to block bitter receptors on the tongue (to mask CBD’s bitterness), and the batch Certificate of Analysis likewise does not identify a mushroom species or extract standard.

We recommend starting with one mint (20 mg) and letting it dissolve, then checking in after ~20 minutes—if you need more, take one additional mint. For routine, over‑the‑counter use many adults stay between 1–3 mints (20–60 mg) per day and should count CBD from all other products toward that total; authoritative limits differ by jurisdiction (EFSA recently proposed a very low provisional level, and the UK FSA advises ~10 mg/day), so higher or therapeutic dosing should be done under medical supervision. CBD can interact with many prescription drugs and affect liver enzymes, so increase dose slowly (tolerance escalation by one mint at a time) and get clinical advice before stacking with other CBD or prescription medications.

This product is sweetened with xylitol and sorbitol and contains soluble corn fiber; for most people a single mint is unlikely to trigger symptoms, but sugar‑alcohols and fermentable fibers can cause gas, bloating or loose stools in sensitive people (especially IBS/low‑FODMAP sufferers). People typically start to see sorbitol symptoms around ~10–20 g/day and xylitol effects at higher doses (commonly reported in the ~25–50 g/day range), while soluble corn fiber can cause mild gas/bloating at multi‑gram daily intakes — so we recommend trying one mint first and waiting a few hours, and avoiding several mints at once if you know you’re sensitive.

We recommend storing The Mints in a cool (about 60–70°F / 15–21°C), dry, dark place and keeping the tin tightly closed—avoid leaving tins in hot cars or humid bathrooms to protect the liposomal delivery system and flavor. While Feals doesn’t publish a mint-specific expiry on the product page, similar sugar‑free mints are best-quality about 12–18 months unopened and liposomal formulations are temperature‑sensitive, so we recommend using unopened tins within ~12–18 months of manufacture and consuming an opened tin within about 2–3 months to help preserve potency and liposomal integrity; always follow the printed “best by” on the package and scan the QR code for batch lab info.
