Anyone out there using CBD products? I'm currently trying one with good results...I think..I actually think so.
Anyone have experience with any of the applications that are available?

This is a touchy subject. For those that don’t know what it is it comes from a plant that also produces THC. My wife used CBD with wonderful results before she passed away. Being legal in Washington was a Godsend for her.

She was able to get pain relief and not get high. Think of it as taking aspirin and not “doing drugs”. It comes in a tenure form and works within seconds and she would stop vomiting in about one minute.

My son gave me a half-used bottle of the water-soluble variety of CBD oil to try out on my chronic hip pain (arthritis? I dunno.) and it has worked wonders. No side effects, and seems to attack the inflammation quickly and the benefits seem to be cumulative, as I'm taking it less frequently and still having less pain.

I've since visited the local CBD store and, from what I was told, there are even more "efficient" products available in terms of getting into your system, so I'll take the plunge and buy a bottle.

From a person who is strongly against Marijuana (other than true Medicinal purposes) as well as other drugs, so far I don't see anything wrong with CBD and know that it has been very beneficial to many out there.

I deal with chronic hip and lower back pain and would love to give it a try, but not sure if it's legal here in Minnesoooota.

Didn't know it was an issue up there. This may or may not help, as I didn't dig into it...

As strict as Virginia is, I believe it is legal here now. I would check with your local Health Dept.

I've heard from a couple people that their Dr even recommended it.

As unlikely as it seems, you can buy CBD products in grocery stores in Missouri. The medical community is digging in and getting serious about studying it, and there's certainly more science to be discovered, quantified and verified, but, based on my own experience, the sooner it becomes more mainstream, the better, as that will bring more competition to the marketplace and prices will tend to drop over time.

Great point Evan. One would think competition would result in lower prices. There are, however, many dispensaries around here, but price point has not yet changed...give it time I guess. :)
