Letter From The Editor Summer is in full swing and we are loving it! Some of my best memories were made in the summertime: Fourth of July family gatherings, sticky fingers from popsicle making, watching drive-in movies and, of course, summer vacations to the beach. This summer we are so thankful for the opportunity to be outdoors and socializing again. Nothing beats hanging out with friends while dining outdoors at your favorite local restaurant. (We’ve mentioned a few of our go-to places in this issue.) And don’t forget to hydrate this summer! Summer’s intense heat saps moisture from plants, the earth, and our bodies. That’s why we’ve listed the benefits of IV therapy in our Nourishment section. Being outdoors more often can put us at risk for dehydration, skin sensitivities, and vitamin and mineral deficiencies. The simple solution is to eat seasonal fruits as their nutrition is at its peak. Here at FIT405 Magazine, our team loves a good fruit and Acai bowl so we’ve included a recipe on how to build your own or where to find one locally. Make sure to tag us on social media if you love the recipe. Whether it’s sipping a cooling beverage in your own backyard or traveling afar, don’t leave home without finishing this issue, and especially take a peek at the Summer Favorites that we can’t live without.

ACAI BOWLS Acai bowls have taken the world by storm over the past year, becoming one of the biggest food trends of the decade. The Acai berry is a super fruit native to South and Central America regions and grows naturally in the Amazon rainforest. More than just a fun, customizable smoothie bowl, this antioxidant-rich superfood aids in heart and skin health, reduces digestive upset and irritation, and provides an energy boost. Another reason we love these bowls is because of their versatility. Whether you’re wanting a fruit forward breakfast; A sweet, crunchy snack; Or frozen dessert, Acai Bowls are a great fit for any meal of the day.

Oh hi - The Seltzer That
Nourishes
BY MEGAN FORD
A NEW SELTZER HAS ENTERED THE CHAT
Oklahoma fully submerged itself into the seltzer scene, but all seltzers in the metro seemed to be missing one beneficial ingredient, cannabis. Oh Hi made its entrance as the first THC seltzer in Oklahoma after a group of OKC natives discovered the Colorado brand and immediately decided to collaborate with the creators to bring it back to Oklahoma, doing so a short six months later. The product was born in Durango but brewed in Oklahoma from start to finish of the canning process. “The brand isn’t limited to one type of consumer, Nader Nassar, Director of Sales, says. “It ranges from a person in their 30s that doesn’t want to drink alcohol anymore but can’t consume THC products in public to patients in their 80s who have chronic pain and are looking for a less intrusive way to ingest a THC product.” Oh Hi created the product using a Nano-emulsified THC distillate. It’s a water-soluble THC that allows the drink to enter the bloodstream sublingually. It’s fast-acting with a 15 – 25-minute reaction time before you feel the effects, whereas most edibles are fat-soluble and take longer to feel. You hit your peak absorption at about 60 minutes but don’t feel the effects drag on like many edibles that last for hours. The water-soluble products allow you to have a few drinks throughout the day or night if your tolerance allows it. “The best part of the drinks is that they have a resealable childproof lid that you can put back into refrigeration where it keeps the carbonation,” Nassar says. “It’s a great intro level to people who want to be functionally high,” Tucker Cason, Oh Hi Partner, says. “It was created with the active person in mind.”
The drinks include twelve all-natural terpenes, each with a different flavor profile and can help with anti-inflammatory, anxiety, including sedative qualities that allow for better sleep. Benefits to drinking the seltzers in moderation also include pain relief and managing anxiety and depression. Keep an eye out on their Instagram page as they post recipes shared by customers used in mocktails and other beverages. If you’d prefer to enjoy the drinkables while you’re out, you can find CBD versions of certain cocktails mixed with Oh Hi at The Jones Assembly.

There are currently four flavors, three of which are 10 mg per can and one of which is a 1:1 ratio of 5 mg of TCH and 5 mg of CBD. The flavors are crisp, clean, and subtle, making them a great addition to a beverage. The flavors in the 10 mg category are pomegranate, lemon-lime, and grapefruit. The ginger basil limeade is a blend of THC and CBD. The next step for Oh Hi is to release the same line of flavors at a higher dosage, including 25 mg and a 15 mg CBD and 15 mg combination offering.
Cason says there is no distillate aftertaste, an important factor they considered going into creating the beverage. He goes on to say, “It’s light in calories at an amount of 20 per drink and only 5g of sugar. The flavor profiles helped the brand earn Cannabis Cup Winner in Colorado for the pomegranate flavor.”
