Is CBD oil legal in Mexico?
CBD is available in Mexico and online, and is legal. Medical marijuana has been decriminalized, there is no penalty or action for 5 grams of any substance in Mexico, it is not recommended that you use the substances in public. But CBD is a medical treatment and you can buy it online.

Can you take CBD into Mexico?
Short answer: Yes, it's legal. As long as your CBD oil is derived from hemp, it's perfectly legal to carry your CBD oil across state lines, regardless of whether or not marijuana is legal in that state.Sep 26, 2018

Thanks KQ!
Got most of that from my own google search too.
Still, I'd hate to be the guy who got caught trying to smuggle weed (CBD) INTO Mexico. :rolleyes2

If it’s cream just put it in a Jergens or Vaseline container.

If edibles I mix candies in with a pack of IceBreakers or something.

I'll be breaking it down into 1 oz. and 2 oz. jars I'll sell for $30-$35 to beat my competitors' wholesale prices with a more effective product.

How long would a 4.7 oz jar last using it strictly on arthritic hands?
Asking for my mother in law.
She is struggling to find something that works right now and is open to using CBD cream if its cost effective.

At least a month, TWINS. I just talked to a woman this morning who was developing trigger finger in one finger on her left hand. She was also developing a knot on her hand where that finger met the palm. I guess it's a tendon thing. She said at one week she could straighten her finger and she's now working on the knot. I had one friend with arthritis who applied it once and said it never bothers him since. That's all I have to go by between my own shoulder healing experience and what other people, like schwerty, tell me. I got the best herbs I know, along with the cbd, being delievered via dmso, which has been used for joint pain for a long time. Precautionarily, I need to say that because dmso is a solvent, anyone using it, after applying to body, should rinse their hands with warm water, no soap, and wipe them off on a clean towel. You don't want to absorb everything you touch with it on your hands

Thankyou for the thorough response Pat.
I have used DMSO before and remember the strong garlic smell that happened while using it. Is that still a issue?

My gf said my breath smelled like garlic the other day. I didn't notice myself. Small trade-off.

I'm ready to try some of this to help with shitty sleep and recovery from athletic pursuits in my mid 40s...but want capsules and not tinctures. What's some good reliable choices? Ive seen Floyd's, Hammer Nutrition, Hemp Daddys.....

Where are you and do you have to stick to hemp derived CBD or can you go with cannabis?

Being in Washington all I can do is online research and post links (which I do so well much to the consternation of many. LOL!). Hopefully someone from your area an weigh in with actual experience with local products. In the meantime I would recommend looking for products that are cannabis derived with some THC content. Bonus points for products that give you terpene profiles (also here) and add herbal extracts. ++ for "seed to shelf" companies who keep it all in-house and can tell you what strains they are using.

Here is a Yelp review of some local shops. You may know them but I like that people reviewed staff knowledge and helpfulness. Nothing worse than going into a shop and having it staffed by a bunch of stoners that can't talk about products.

If you decided you want to try something other than capsules, maybe an oil that you can ingest consider Sour Tsunami if you can find it. It is one of my very favorites. More high CBD cannabis strains to look for can be found here:

You could always go the route of Bobby and a couple others on here who decarb their own flower and make capsules so you get exactly what you want without having to hunt and search for strains in the form you want. I find often that I can get flower but not the concentrate I want which is frustrating.

This decarb product has received good reviews and I think there are a few here who have it (LOL! You can buy it at Wal-Mart!):

Splat,

Your cream works, my elbow hasn't felt this good for a while.

Thanks, Mang!!!!! Love to hear the feedback. After 13 months of agony and two months of the cream, I hardly even need it anymore on my shoulder. Now that the pain is gone there, other aches are taking the place of the shoulder as my predominant pain focus. Moving on to my knee and hip now. If it does the same miraculous whatever on those joints, I'll be the happiest guy on the planet!

How's your GF healing up?

how often do y'all apply the cream to aching/chronic (heh) areas? 1x day, 2x day, what?

Any more than 2x per day, you should see a doctor, or have a serious talk with the wife.

Amazing. Really. She's so fukking healthy, she ate vicodin for only two days after surgery. After that, it was my cream only. That's it. Fukking unreal. She's a week away from weight bearing and just said she expects some tibial plateau pain when she walks again and asked me for some more. Given that she had five breaks in the plateau plus a bone graft, if she does as well with walking as she has with healing to date, I'll pretty much shit myself.

I did it prolly 3x a day for five weeks when I first made it because my shoulder had been killin' me for a year.
Shoulder is now fine now, though minus a lot of muscle and fucked up tendons. But it's prolly 80%. Now I'm on my knee which, because it doesn't hurt as bad, I hit with the cream prolly twice a day, sometimes not at all.
I say if it hurts, put the cream on it.

For my lower back it's once a day if needed. For my one arthritic knuckle I put it on before bed since I'm usually washing my hands throughout the day. I don't find I need it every day but then I do take oral CBD daily.

I find tropicals work better (or feel like the work better) out of the shower when my skin is warm and pores are open. For my hand I wash it in warm water before applying.

Another shout out for Splat’s cream. It is really helping me with my tendonitis while ramping up mileage for trail running this spring and summer. I usually apply it twice a day, once in the morning, and before bed. If I’ve done a long run, I might put some on after I get home and stretch.

Great to hear 2bjenny!

I think that is the million dollar question.
https://www.projectcbd.org/how-to/cbd-dosage

My wife is using CBD from hemp. She uses a tincture, liquid capsule, and a salve every day. So far it seems to be helping her L5-S1 issue.

I take a combo THC-CBD in lower dosages. I have a tincture, edibles, and vape pen. I'm a believer in the 'entourage effect' using the whole plant, but the legality of it is an issue for most. And of course, the THC 'high' can pose an issue for some, although what I'm taking does not get me high in any way. The amount of THC is minimal which apparently offset by the CBD. Well, my tolerance to THC is also quite high, so I'm not really the one to say I guess.

So overdue to come off the schedule 1 listing. When are the stuffed suits going to make that happen?

LESS IS MORE
Perhaps the most striking conclusion of this study is the dramatic difference in doses for isolates compared to full spectrum CBD-rich oil extracts. The mean dosage for people using pure CBD was 25.3 mg/kg/day, but for CBD-rich extracts it was 6.0 mg/kg/day.

In other words, CBD in a whole plant extract was over 4 times more potent than isolated CBD. This result is a reflection of what’s known as the “entourage effect,” whereby the therapeutic impact of the whole plant is greater than a single compound or even the sum of the plant’s individual medicinal components.

We can say that “more research is needed” to fully understand the biochemical basis of the entourage effect in epilepsy, but we are well past the point of questioning its existence and importance.

I know this has been covered but —> CBD is CBD regardless of if it’s from hemp or MJ right? Or is it different?

As touted as the entourage effect is, when people ask me to put thc in their cream, my answer is always 'All you have to do is take a couple hits on a joint after applying the cream and it will kick in.' And it will.

Entourage you say... Here is a slide from a presentation made today at the annual meeting of American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians.

Yeah, but if you don't want to or cannot get high that does not work. Not using the same delivery vehicle may make a difference also...idk. So many unknowns. More science needed.

I've heard that several times now about hemp pulling in a lot of heavy metals from the soil IF it exists. Yet they don't mention Mary jane doing the same.

Thank you!

Well now I’m doubting the farmer we are partnering with even more.

First off he hasn’t produced the license I keep asking for.

Second he says the strain is 12-15%

Rethinking this whole test plot thing.

BOTOH we grew some Charlottes web last year that was supposed to be help and still test in the teens...

Thanks again

The first thing I've learned to ask is if isolate is from hemp or marijuana. There's a million people seliing isolate from hemp. You can get it out of Florida or anywhere.

Lulz. I ain’t letting him break ground till I get something in writing.

But chemically speaking there is no difference? It’s only that hemp has a higher risk of contamination due to the lower levels?

Is there not a way to get the impurities out?

Cream will be there in a couple days, ice.

Been using the creamy goodness on my repaired knee in this rainy weather. Helps

Thx Splat!
