(Satin Widow)<\/p>\n<p>Born in St.  Thomas, US Virgin Islands, Browning had long experienced the benefits of CBD and hemp products, long before things took off in the states.<\/p>\n<p>I had used hemp and its natural antioxidants for skin care for years.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve been using it for a while,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>She was also particularly familiar with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getsunmed.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SunMed<\/a> line of premium products, treating everything from skin conditions to anxiety and sleep disorders.  There&#8217;s even a pet line.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough my research, I realized there were no My CBD locations (that sell SunMed) in all of Suffolk County,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<p>However, by then, there were already 22 in nearby Connecticut.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We went to Connecticut and the stores were beautiful,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>After a trip to the SunMed headquarters in Florida, meet the owners and the hours spent combing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getsunmed.com\/labreports.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">independent laboratory reports<\/a>Browning was convinced that this company was the best.<\/p>\n<p>She was full.  His education and training began in early 2021.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This company was founded by a woman, a mother who suffered from various health ailments, who found relief and decided she wanted to do this for other people,&#8221; Browning said.  &#8220;And with so much CBD on the market, I knew what we wanted to put on our shelves had to be consistent.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Consistency, which he cited as the biggest concern in the crowded CBD landscape, and therefore results, is what keeps his customers coming back.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;One of the pillars of the company is sampling,&#8221; he said.  &#8220;People can try it, because if you&#8217;re going to take this health journey with us, we want to find the right product for you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Customers are also encouraged to contact their physicians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are a CBD store;  we&#8217;re not doctors,&#8221; he said. &#8220;So whatever you do, talk to your doctor if you have any questions.  All our products also have QR codes for lab reports.  Everyone has to be on the same page.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This July, Your CBD Store Port Jeff celebrates its first year in business.<\/p>\n<p>Browning said the numbers show her store is helping the community, which she said has welcomed the business with open arms, from local chambers to health care professionals.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have a 75 percent return rate&#8221; for customers, he said.  &#8220;And even for the 25 percent, one of the things we offer at all franchise stores is a 30-day money-back guarantee.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But he says &#8220;delivery makes all the difference&#8221; when it comes to results.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So let&#8217;s figure out what&#8217;s the best method for you,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-if-you-go\">if you go<\/h2>\n<p>Your CBD Store is located at 590 Patchogue Road in Port Jefferson Station at the intersection of Terryville Road.  click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/Your+CBD+Store+-+Port+Jefferson+Station,+NY\/@40.9289035,-73.0516598,15z\/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x826a9058e07c53dc?sa=X&#038;ved=2ahUKEwj2x66CqOf4AhUgjIkEHeLmBEQQ_BJ6BAhIEAU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a> for a Google Map.
