Thread: CBD oil

  1. #1

    CBD oil

    CBD oil is starting to trend among my friends who have service related physical and mental conditions. Almost all of them have moved away from anxiety based meds before, stating that they made them almost feel like zombies or a completely different person. Many are reporting that CBD oil (no thc in this so you do not get high) has made a real impact on their quality of life, sleep, and mood.

    Anyone else seeing this being used for mental or physical conditions?

    My dad has some severe pain issues and it’s been recommended to him. Of course he’s not interested because damn hippies think pot is the answer for everything (paraphrasing). Interested what others have to say.

    It’s huge in the pro musician community, because everyone’s hands are shot to hell from years of repetitive wear and tear. Definitely something to it, from what everyone says. I’m probably going to be jumping on the bandwagon myself within the decade, since I’m getting older and creakier all the time.

    Myself and a few of my friends suffer from diabetic neuropathy (nerve pain). We're all taking CBD oil from various sources. In my case it's https://www.diamondcbd.com/collections/oil.

    We're all getting relief but it varies from one to another. Since it comes in different strengths, finding the dosage that suits you is the key. I recommend it.

    Hmmm. Limited studies and no regulation for purity or dosage. Sounds like health food store snake oil to me.

    I've had surgery on both of my elbows, more days than not, they just effing ache. My wife got me some of this Lord Jones CBD lotion and it absolutely works for me.

    The topicals won't flag on a urine test, but any of the ingested CBDs will absolutely show as cannabis, if that matters in your employment.

    Quite the opposite. I just don't believe fairy tales, sea stories, or patent medicine claims.

    I never heard of the stuff until it was featured on Bull earlier this week. (That's Agent DiNozzo's new show.)

    There are few if any clinical studies that establish a benefit for C0Q10, yet my doctor recommends that I take it with my cholesterol medication.

    OTOH, there are all kinds of allegedly famous people on the TeeVee telling that putting copper in my underoos will make the pain go away, too. Or magnets.
