Nutritional CBD oils are helping people sleep better, relieving anxiety, pain and in some cases having positive effects on diabetes, blood pressure and other aliments that are plaguing our society, especially those over 55 (of which I am one). After years of research and probing into the science behind cannabidiol – the parts of the hemp plant our bodies use naturally, I’ve come to believe it’s worth trying for a number of clients as well as myself.
Here’s a good description for starters:
“Cannabidiol (CBD) is a phytocannabinoid discovered in 1940. It is one of some 113 identified cannabinoids in cannabis plants and accounts for up to 40% of the plant’s extract. In 2018, clinical research on cannabidiol included preliminary studies of anxiety, cognition, movement disorders, and pain. Todays’ products that I’m using are made from Hemp, not marijuana, and contain NO THC, so there’s no “high” from the oil.
More to come as I see how my clients respond to this…so far results have been positive.
