    Simply not true and there is a standard. Less than 0.3% THC is considered THC free.

    Agreed. I was taking Bluebird botanical and they have a guaranteed thc free for cdl drivers. Should be no problems with reputable companies.

    Not to rain on your question, however, there has been a documented placebo effect of 50% on most drugs.

    Didn't do a thing for me. My my doc said that the studies never proved yes or no about CBD. I said it was probably the placebo effect that helped so many people. He replied that the placebo effect is very powerful. If it works for you, don't question it.

    Works great for what we use it for; aches and pains, anxiety, and my mom's hot flashes. So well that after finding the one that worked best for her she started selling it. My dad is a big CB supporter, and if anyone is interested i'm sure he could get a special CB coupon code for anyone who wants to try it at a steep discount. She even gives the dog treats to her dogs and chickens. The stuff she sells isn't as cheap as some of the garbage on the market, but it's all organic ingredients and THC free with the labs to back it up. If anyone is interested let me know and I'll get a coupon code from him and pass it along, if not no worries.

    Seems like it works for some, does nothing for others.

    I have arthritis in the tendon in my hand that causes the thumb to lift. It can make that thumb almost useless. As long as I rub CBD ointment on it daily it remains pretty much pain free. If I forget to use it for more than one day the pain returns with a vengeance.

    I took CBDs in every possible way it could be used for low back pain.
    I have severe arthritis in my low back.
    After having spent more money on CBDs than i care to talk about, they did me no good what so ever.
    My daughter had a large benign brain tumor removed 5 years ago.
    CBDs help her with seizures.
    A number of people I know say it helps them.
    It just never helped me.

    I never took it for pain but smoked my share when i was young. Ive suffered back pain (6 operations) for 15 years. Ill say this. If you tell me pot relieves pain ill tell you you dont know what pain really is. What you have is a little ache. Might let you sit in the chair eating doritos in a daze. No doubt works as a appetite increaser in people taking chemo but you will eat more and ive never seen where putting on more weight helped with muscle or bone related pain. Couple Tylenol or advil does much more then pot ever will to reduce pain. But if you want to get high go for it. Just dont bs me by claiming your doing it because of your pain. been there and done that and know better.

    CBD isn’t pot, and pain relief isn’t absolute. Quantitative easing is what you get.

    sorry but its a con job. Its kind of like i tell my wife about that bs pain factor crap on tv. They tell you relief in a week. Well most injurys that cause pain heal in that amount of time so people think there getting better because of snake oil. They could put cooking oil in a capsule and tell people it came from pot and some old hippys would say it was the best thing since white bread. Like i said. If that crap helps you then you dont know what real daily pain is. Maybe buy some relief factor, cbd, salon pas and wrap yourself in copper infused stretch material. You sure will make the sellers feel better.

    I have fibromyalgia, small fiber neuropathy, and im in 3rd stage renal failure.
    I can not move without something to keep the pain managable.

    We’ve had several people lose their jobs from cbd oil after losing their cdl.

    Well, there is NO government testing for this, (yeah, I know, but the FDA is pretty dang good for the most part. and a guarantee from a company that is making a NON Regulated product good enough for you when your livelihood is at risk?
    THERE have been folks fired over this that have a CDL. Only takes ONE bad batch...
    USE at YOUR own risk.

    CBD can be helpful for many people for a variety of conditions.

    But CBD products are currently sort of the Wild West. As stated, the Feds set THC limits, but not all of the companies peddling CBD products test sufficiently to guarantee compliance. It's also the case that many companies peddling CBD products are just in it for the cash and are selling crap that in some cases doesn't even have any CBD in it at all.

    So buyer beware. Do research and do your best to make sure you're dealing with somebody reputable. Topical (but NOT transdermal) products may be better as they don't really end up in the bloodstream. But if your job absolutely depends on a clean test, maybe it'd be best not to experiment at all...Just go get a script for Oxy from your Doc.

    Here in the retirement village there are three CBD stores and they all hand out free samples. Some old folks say snakeoil and some say works great. CBD has no effect on my arthritic hands at all. WD-40 works much better so I spray my hands when I shoot the Ruger. SWMBO says CBD's greatest thing ever. I suppose we are all wired a bit differently. YMMV.

    Yep, I believe that, but then that means the drugs actually work half the time?

    My Late Father used WD-40 for joint pain. I thought that was the craziest thing I ever heard (and honestly I still do), but he swore that it worked.

    Like you say, we are all wired a bit differently...or maybe better put, each person's pain has it's own roots. CBD is a known anti-inflammatory, so if a person's pain is due to inflammation, it may help...It sure helped mine...but it wasn't instant, it took a good two weeks to kick-in...and let me tell you, I was sure skeptical until it started working.

    CBD oil works for my wife and I just great.

    It in no way surprises me that those in this thread that have had success with CBD list and know the MG CBD content of the oil/cream/pills/capsules that they are ingesting!

    CBD is not new, CBD is a natural product that big pharmacy wants gone because there is no money in it for them!

    CBD helps level out blood sugar levels for diabetics, Both type 1 and 2.

    Your milage will vary if you are ignorant to the strength or MG percentage of CBD you are trying.

    One thing for sure is many of you add to your post counts daily!
