Kim is a women has a lot on her plate, including raising four childrens, studying for her bar exam, filming her reality TV show, and running multiple businesses including management SKIMS shapewear line.

The product: CBD stands for cannabidiol. It is the second most prevalent of the active ingredients of cannabis (marijuana), according to Harvard Medical School. Kim offered up CBD Oil at her last baby shower
The wife of Kanye West said: ‘How do I do it all? It is exhausting. I just say CBD. [laughs] But I do. It’s gotten me through a lot.’
CBD does not make users high, and Kim insists that while she loves trying all different types of CBD products, she is ‘not a weed smoker at all’.
She added: ‘That’s not my thing. I got into CBD a few months ago. It’s saved my life. Even to sleep at night. I like the gummies. I will just use a little bit and fall asleep [laughs].’

And Kim loves CBD products so much, she’s even managed to swap out her prescribed medication for the herbal option.
Speaking to People magazine, she said: ‘I don’t think I would take a Xanax or an Ambien again.’
Kim isn’t the only star to turn to CBD products lately, as Kardashian family friend Malika Haqq also recently revealed she’s shunned anxiety medication Xanax in favor of the oil.
She said: ‘A lot of anxiety is very much about the way you process things in your head.
‘So for me, I actually am processing that I’m doing better and feeling better because I’m doing something that’s better for myself.
‘It’s crazy, but the truth is it really does help. It honestly has done a world of difference for me where anxiety is concerned.
‘If you really do have a reason to be doing it, it is a game-changer.
‘I’ve become the girl who is literally dropping CBD oil into people’s hands. I feel like the fixer.’
