Meet Battle Buddy

Battle Buddy is a product that not only fits with the company’s passion, and its mission, it’s deeply connected with personal history. Having served in the Oklahoma National Guard, CEO Nathan Richter is committed to supporting those who have served our country and who are coping with the invisible scars of war and the associated trauma that comes with it. “People with PTSD often describe the feeling as a storm,” explains Richter. “When PTSD is triggered, a storm feels like it is brewing inside and when it bubbles to the surface, you snap – sometimes emotionally and sometimes physically. Studies have shown that the use of CBD combined with low doses of THC by PTSD survivors increases naturally occurring levels of anandamide – a cannabinoid produced inside the body commonly referred to as the ‘bliss molecule.’”

In response to his personal experience with PTSD as well as that of his fellow soldiers, Richter developed Nature’s Keys signature Battle Buddy product with the help of a physician. “When I am faced with the triggers of PTSD and can feel the storm brewing, I will often consume a CBD product to start the process of homoeostasis in my body. In every instance, within 30 minutes, I feel ‘normal’ again.”

Nature’s Key is committed to fostering honest and transparent relationships with its consumers.

By utilizing third-party testing, Nature’s Key provides consistent dosing and verified potency with every product, every time. Since its founding in 2017, Nature’s Key has invested in people who care deeply about enhancing the lives of others by embracing wellness in all they do.

"Get your mind right soldier, get your mind right."
I am still thankful for that drill sergeant’s phrase and repeat it to myself, my children, and my leaders often. It means taking control of your thoughts. While our minds are incredible and complex, they are also very simple. Orient your mind to start each day. When you orient your mind, you stay mentally connected to your focus and purpose.
