nationally recognized consumer cannabidiol (CBD) brand (NYSE
American: YCBD), is pleased to announce that their CBD PM
and CBD Freeze products have been voted the winner of the
prestigious 2020 Product of the Year award in the CBD Sleep

innovation, as 40,000 voters participated in an online study
organized by independent research firm Kantar Media Group. cbdMD
