Healist Naturals is a wellness company with one main focus: CBD. They combine U.S. grown organic CBD with clinically backed active natural ingredients activate different states — Relief, Calm, Sleep, and Well-Being. Healist products come in a range of formats — from gummies to drops to patches — that help activate those states in the best possible way for you.
For those in the outdoor world who are not familiar with CBD, there are a few key traits to take note of.
First, CBD comes from industrial hemp, which was legalized for production and consumption in 2018. The extraction process of hemp results in two varieties of CBD: Broad Spectrum and Full Spectrum. The former contains no THC (the psychoactive element in cannabis), while the latter contains a small amount, typically under 3%.
Healist Naturals’ line of CBD is Broad Spectrum, contains 0.0% THC, and causes no high.
Second, CBD is one of the fastest growing industries in the U.S., especially for the outdoor market. This is because CBD has medicinal properties that help people to fall asleep faster, cope with stress, and soothe sore muscles* — which are also reasons we love the outdoors. CBD is great for highly active people, especially during (and after) a long weekend in the backcountry.
Healist Naturals Makes Quality CBD
Finally, quality is key. When ingesting something — from beer to protein bars to freeze-dried backpacking food — quality matters. A high quality product will help your body go farther, faster, and feel better.
Healist Naturals uses 100% organic broad spectrum hemp extract from Minnesota, and triple lab tests everything in an independent, ISO-accredited pharmaceutical GMP lab to ensure quality. They use the industry-leading C02 extraction process to create their hemp extract, an eco-friendly practice that preserves the natural components of the plants.
With the rise of CBD in grocery stores, it is important to know the quality of what you’re buying. The lab testing, use of organic products, and industry-leading extraction techniques are key to determining quality, all of which Healist Naturals has gone to great lengths to ensure.
Healist Naturals CBD Products
Healist Naturals has taken their base ingredient — CBD — and created multiple Benefit categories to help provide specific types of relief. They blend the CBD with other organic ingredients, like essential oils, roots, and extracts. Below we highlight our favorite Healist products from these categories, specifically for outdoor recreation.
Healist has also provided our readers with 30% off your purchase — use the code BACKPACKERS30 at checkout.
Healist Naturals Relief Infused Patch – $27.99 (30% Off)
The first product, and arguably the best for backpacking, is the Healist Naturals Relief Infused Patch. We find it ideal for the moment you’ve set up camp after a grueling trek.
The Relief Infused Patches are extremely lightweight — take them out of the box and they weigh just a few ounces — and can be shared with the group. They provide targeted, 24-hour relief for sore muscles and tired joints*. Lower back, shoulders, and legs are all quite tired after a long hike and are great spots to stick a patch on.
Each Relief Infused patch contains 10 milligrams of CBD and contains Menthol, Arnica Extract, Coenzyme Q10, Vitamin B6, and Black Pepper Extract — a host of ingredients designed to aid in muscle and joint relief. The box comes with four patches.

Healist Naturals Sleep Drops – $48.99 (30% Off)
The Healist Naturals Sleep Drops combine two of our favorite aspects of CBD — the liquid drop form and the benefits of a solid night’s rest.
Drops are typically the most natural form of CBD, unlike gummies that have other ingredients to make them, well, gummies. Drops are dose specific, so you can take exactly how much you need. Many of us get outdoors to help calm the mind and get solid, quiet, unbroken rest. The Healist Naturals Sleep Drops aid that sleep* in the outdoors, or at home.
Healist Naturals Sleep Drops combine CBD with botanical essential oils like lavender and lemon, and a custom terpene blend. Terpenes are aromatic oils naturally found in the cannabis plant. They come in two strengths — 20 milligrams per millimeter or 40 milligrams per millimeter — and two flavors — citrus or peppermint.

Healist Naturals Calm Chews – $59.49 (30% Off)
The Calm Chews are CBD gummies designed to help you cope with stress and unease*. Gummies are one of the most popular ways to take CBD. Each Calm Chew has 20 milligrams of CBD.
The Calm Chews contain a number of calming ingredients beyond CBD, like Ashwagandha Extract and L-Theanine, which add to the overall Calm effect.
Much like a solid dose of nature, the Calm Chews are great for relaxation, around the campfire or at home. There are 46 chews per container.

Healist Naturals Body Relief Lotion – $27.99 (30% Off)
One of the most popular forms of CBD is lotion. Much like arnica gel or menthol-based lotion, Healist Naturals Body Relief Lotion was created to soothe your sore muscles and joints*. The Lotion can be rubbed in anywhere and has a cooling and heating sensation on your skin and muscles.
In addition to the CBD, the Healist Naturals Body Relief Lotion uses menthol, camphor, arnica, ginger, boswellia, aloe, shea butter, peppermint, and hemp seed oils to enhance the relief. The lotion comes in a 2.8-ounce package, perfect for international travel, and contains a total of 150 milligrams of CBD.

Healist Naturals Well-being Drops – $48.99 (30% Off)
Healist Naturals’ last Benefit category is Well-being, and the Drops aim to create an overall sense of ease in your body and mind*. CBD has both mental and physical relief, and the Well-being Drops aim to aid both of these realms. We find this is perfect for a hike or trail run.
These Drops are very similar to the Sleep Drops, but have a different group of Terpenes and oils so as to not be sleeping inducing. These include orange, pine, lemongrass and lemon terpenes, peppermint essential oil, and Stevia Leaf Extract. They come in two strengths — 20 milligrams per millimeter or 40 milligrams per millimeter — and two flavors — citrus or peppermint.
