CBD isolate, no terpenes - 2oz

This is probably the most important question that I answer. You must protect yourself, ask questions, ask to see lab reports, ask where hemp is grown and sourced. Any company producing a quality product will always have lab reports to back up their products. In these reports you can find things such as: CBD %, THC %, residual solvent content, heavy metals, etc. There are many products out there that have been tested privately revealing low levels to no CBD, higher than legal amounts of THC and all sorts of nasty things you do not want in your body. As with anything else in life, you get what you pay for. You are likely taking CBD for your mental and physical healthy, make sure it has nothing in it that will harm you and don't make a decision on CBD because it's cheap.

The FDA does not test CBD products. This means that you don't really know what's in the CBD product you're buying — just like supplements you purchase in a drugstore. The risks? First, the product may not have the expected amount of CBD in it, or any at all. Second, it may contain THC without your realizing it. "The THC content is concerning. If you don't know you're taking THC and get behind the wheel, your driving could be impaired," Dr. Grinspoon says. The safest approach is to purchase from trusted,  well known CBD companies like Yin Yang Infusions

Hemp-derived CBD and marijuana-derived CBD are widely available online, in retail stores, or in cannabis dispensaries, depending on your state's laws. Which type of CBD is best? "It certainly is safer to start with hemp-derived CBD, as there won't be the psychoactivity associated with THC," Dr. Grinspoon says. On the other hand, a small amount of THC added to marijuana-derived CBD may aid the CBD's effectiveness, even though it also increases the chance a person will become a little high and have problems functioning.

Only you and your doctor can decide if CBD is right for you. If you get a green light, Dr. Grinspoon recommends using products made from cannabis grown in the United States or in Canada (which both have stricter safety regulations than other countries) that list the amount of CBD and THC on the label, and do not make claims to cure anything.

Start with a low dose,. How much CBD you use depends on the delivery system (whether it's an edible, tincture, or pill, for example) and your individual needs. And of course, as with any new drug, try it first in a safe environment, when you know you'll be home and you'll have someone there to make sure you're okay. Write down side effects and report them to your doctor if they're concerning.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) notes there is some evidence that CBD helps reduce pain, anxiety, and symptoms of psychotic conditions (such as schizophrenia). However, the NIH points out that we don't yet have enough evidence to prove that CBD reduces anything except epileptic seizures. Most evidence comes from studies with lab animals. In his clinic, Dr. Grinspoon sees CBD making a difference for people with insomnia and anxiety. "It seems to take the edge off people's anxiety. And for insomnia, it seems to help you get to sleep and stay asleep," he says. But not everyone who uses CBD has success. "The feedback I am getting is mixed. I have one patient who feels the CBD cream she uses every day for her hands has gotten rid of the pain. Another said it did nothing," says Dr. Suzanne Salamon, associate chief of gerontology at Harvard-affiliated Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.

While the World Health Organization maintains CBD is considered generally safe and well tolerated, it's not clear yet what quantity of CBD is safe and for how long.
