10 CBD Facts You Need To Know
#1: Key Ingredient
Cannabidiol is a key ingredient in cannabis, one of more than 60 compounds
unique to the plant and grouped under the umbrella term “cannabinoids.”
Cannabidiol, otherwise known as CBD, and THC are usually the most common
cannabinoids in the plant and are therefore the most widely studied.
#2: Won’t Get You High
CBD does not get you high like THC does. THC causes euphoria by binding to
special CB1 and CB2 nerve receptors in the brain. CBD does not bind to these
receptors, so cannabidiol does not get you stoned.
#3: CBD From Hemp is Legal
CBD can be made from medical marijuana plants or industrial hemp plants.
Marijuana is illegal under federal law but legal in some states. Industrial hemp
when grown in other countries can be imported legally into the United States,
making it easier for consumers to get CBD treatment without breaking the law.
#4: Cannabinoid Levels Vary
CBD and THC levels, known as cannabinoids, vary between plants. Marijuana
plants grown for recreational use tend to be high in THC and varying amounts of
CBD. Industrial hemp plants are very low in THC while medical marijuana plants
are typically high in CBD.
#5: No Prescription Needed
It is legal to order CBD made from industrial hemp plants online for use in any
state without a prescription. Individuals ordering CBD products made from
medical marijuana plants must live in a state where medical marijuana is legal
and have a prescription.
#6: Has Medical Value
Scientific studies show CBD provides therapeutic medicinal benefits. According
to a 2013 review published in the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology,
soothes nausea and vomiting, acts as an anti-oxidant to reduce free radicals that
cause neurodegenerative disorders, and works as an anti-inflammatory to reduce
swelling. CBD also stimulates appetite and relieves pain.
#7: Benefits the Mind
CBD also combats psychological issues, including working as an antipsychotic to
combat psychosis. Additionally, CBD works to reduce chronic anxiety and
depression disorders. These benefits of CBD are also helpful for patients
struggling with temporary anxiety and depression resulting from a more serious
medical condition.
#8: Combats Cancer Spread
CBD products may reduce the spread of some types of cancer cells.
The National Cancer Institute reviews several studies that show cannabidiol may
have a protective effect against cancer. This review includes research
investigating the benefits of CBD treatment for a variety of cancers, including
breast, colorectal, and lung cancers.
#9: Reduce THC Fallout
CBD counteracts the negative effects of THC. According to research published in
the British Journal of Psychiatry, CBD seems to prevent THC-induced memory
impairment. CBD may also ease paranoia and other negative side effects
commonly associated with THC.
#10: Helping Children with Seizures
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted University of
California at San Francisco researchers permission to study the effects of the
purified cannabidiol drug on children with uncontrolled seizures. Study
participants are all between the ages of 1 and 18 years, and all suffer symptoms
resistant to conventional treatments. Many participants have Dravet syndrome, a
condition that begins in early childhood and causes frequent, disabling seizures
on a daily basis. The FDA and Drug Enforcement Agency promise to monitor the
research closely. Pending FDA approval, more institutions will take up the study.
Didnt read whole thread so it might have been covered...
Any advice on cbd for an ol lab with bad hips. The wet/cold fall has really made him stiff. Oh and in utard so itd have to be zion approved
Bump
I was on Denver for work last week and picked up some Harlequin from a excellent dispensary. Only had the flower, (yeah, I know this is an oil thread). Was one of my favorite smokes. I have taken CBD oils orally and used a grip of topicals with only mild relief from injury pain. Some have have had a small amount of thc in them too. For whatever reason, when I combusted this strain, it worked significantly better. I don’t recall the CBD test level but the THC came in around 3%. Was pissed I had to leave it in CO!
Carry on with the oil chat. Interesting stuff. Can’t wait for it to go legal in WY! Although, I will probably be on an old folks home before that happens.
I only chose to title it "CBD Oil" because that was where I started and really it's still oil even in flower form, right? I have since tried vaping some CBD concentrates. I've tried Sour Tsunami which is nice and mellow but not overly sedative (couch lock) like Yummy Dancehall. Harlequin sounds interesting esp. since it is Sativa dominate. I LOL'd when I read it is a descendant of good ol'Columbia Gold.
From Leafly:
What is Harlequin?
Harlequin is a 75/25 sativa-dominant strain renowned for its reliable expression of CBD. A descendant of Colombian Gold, a Nepali indica, and Thai and Swiss landrace strains, you can depend on Harlequin to provide clear-headed, alert sativa effects. Unlike most high-CBD strains, Harlequin almost always develops a CBD:THC ratio of 5:2, making this strain one of the most effective out there for treatment of pain and anxiety, as CBD can counteract THC’s paranoia while amplifying its painkilling properties. Flavors can range from earthy musk to sweet mango, but without a doubt, what draws crowds to Harlequin is its ability to relax without sedation and to relieve without intoxication.
Given that strain a shot, KQ, if it’s around ya. If you don’t want to go the combustion route, The Mighty or Crafty from Storz and Bickel are both awesome flower vapes.
Had no idea what the origins of that strain were. Makes sense. Probably haven’t heard “Colombian Gold” since 1990 or so!
Harlequin is available in flower locally. I would prefer it in concentrate but could make an exception.
Sour Tsunami is really growing on me. I like that it provides relief without making me foggy or knocking me out. I'm also totally sold on CBD gummies.
The other day my back was bothering me from having bucked several tons of hay the day before so I had a Craft Elixers Pioneer Square CBD Pineapple Crush and followed-up with a couple hits of Sour Tsunami. Man alive it was amazing. Pain gone and I was clear headed able to focus on what I needed to get done. Later in the evening when I felt like my back and shoulders were tightening up again I had 4-5 hits of Sour Tsunami and was golden.
My son has eczema on his elbow that wouldn't go away. Tried all sorts of over the counter stuff. Nothing worked and it was getting worse.
He started putting Cbd lotion on it couple weeks ago and it's almost gone now. Started getting better immediately
Amazing!
I got some for my 15yo bitch and she’s damn near shed a couple years overnight. Recommend for old dog w sore joints and poor appetite.
This is the brand I use. I use the high test 'Heal'. My buddy uses the 'Metabolize' to help with weight loss.

I've also been using a balm on my fucked up shoulders. It works really well. My rotator cuffs are bad and I get minor pain and stiffness constantly. Helps a lot
That's what neighbors are for.
Just thought I'd also post this PSA here, as I did in the main weed thread.
PSA:
Diamond CBD and parent company PotNetwork Holdings adding cough syrup ingredients and melatonin to products and not listing them as ingredients. In some products, melatonin, not CBD was the majority ingredient. Synthetic cannabinoids were found (K2, Spice) when company advertises 100% natural, no synthetics used.

Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU), tested, published peer reviewed study.
I got some CBD gummies on a whim on a groupon. I think they might be questionable (contain questionable ingredients). Where might one inquire to have checked if one were so inclined? I guess VCU is an option, eh?
Funny, saw that add and read the reviews. Seems these are not very well received

Those of you who are not in Washington might be happy to hear that my favorite cannabis company, Fairwinds is rumored to be looking to expand into other states. Their products are really quite wonderful and they are one of the few if not the only in Washington that grows the cannabis that goes into their wide array of products. It's a closed system from beginning to end. They are quite serious about what they do and see themselves as a health and wellness company. They do good things.
Check out their FECO Complete
Fairwinds is proud to introduce Washington’s first Fully Extracted Cannabis Oil! Utilizing an innovative multi-phase extraction process, our laboratory has created a comprehensive whole-plant blend setting a new standard for cannabis concentrates. This ground-breaking production process captures a rich profile of essential cannabinoids, terpenes and organic compounds normally left out in typical RSO. The additional extraction process yields components such as alkaloids, flavonoids and polysaccharides commonly found in cannabis juicing. A single gram of our juice concentrate is equivalent to 200 grams of fresh whole cannabis plant! Leaving the old-school syringe in the past, the FECO now comes in an easy to use discrete pocket pen that guarantees a 25mg serving size with a simple click!
Fairwinds you say?
A little something I found under the tree this year.

Thanks again. You are my ad-free google. :D
Which one in particular? There are a ton on there. I guess honestly, what did I expect...cbd on groupon? The Goldline one may be ok, low dose, or nothing. I just haven't spent the time taking them and looking for results.
Another were these apple rings from Live Green Hemp that wouldn't be surprised if was more along the lines of cough med/spice something or other. Gave me a weird feeling that I didn't like. It was a higher content one so was wondering if that was it.
Only solid reliable sources from here on out. Too old to be a guinea pig.

I have seen those. I just don't know if we are at the point of mass produced cbd. And then quality goes out the window generally. Now that hemp is legal, I can see more growth once more growing happens.
Gonna keep it small and willing to pay a little extra for good stuff.
CBD Bitters for your holiday Manhattan anybody? I got this from the wife for Christmas. Giving them a solid test run tonight. She said the company was amazing to work with. http://mountainelixirs.com/#sip

CBD in everything bandwagon. When is too much? Suppositories anyone?
I’ve been doing some research, I want to see if CBD oil the helps with ADD and focus.
https://bluebirdbotanicals.com/produ...gory/extracts/
These guys looked good and came recommended
Any other refs for a basic oil to help with focus and old age pains.
I've wondered about this myself. Fairwinds makes some. Why? Not something I want to do myself but here's what the internet has to say about the reasons for taking suppositories:
Suppositories may not be the most pleasant product you’ll ever use. But they can make it easier to take medicine that you can't swallow or that your stomach or intestines wouldn't absorb well.
Types of Suppositories
Suppositories have a base made from substances like gelatin or cocoa butter that surrounds the drug. As the warmth of your body melts the outside, the drug slowly releases.
Different types of suppositories go into the rectum, vagina, or the duct that empties your bladder, called the urethra. Sometimes they treat the area where you put them in. Or the medicine absorbs into your blood and travels to other parts of your body.
Rectal suppositories go in your bottom. They are about an inch long and have a rounded or bullet-shaped tip. You might take them to treat:
Allergies
Anxiety
Asthma
Constipation
Fever
Hemorrhoids
Motion sickness
Nausea
Pain and itching
Mental health problems, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder
Why Use Them
You might need a suppository if:
The drug you’re taking would break down too quickly in your digestive tract if you took it as a pill or liquid.
You can’t swallow medicine.
You’re vomiting and can't keep a pill or liquid down.
The medicine tastes too bad to take by mouth.
and I think they left out that perhaps some people just like sticking things up their arse. :eek:
