Yes, CBD that is the new highly concentrated derivative from hemp plants genetically modified and patented (plants)— is the coming thing. And also, some people really do need opiods because of their end-stage or extreme pain indices.
Am taking some heat on this thread, with people saying I’m making crap up about big Tobacco backing “legalization” of marijuana for medical reasons (because marijuana is a narcotic,and CBD cannabidiol is not), positioning themselves to monopolize production of pot cigarettes and of the “growers” as well. They as an industry have to power to do so.
Here’s some irony— you know who just became the head lobbyist for the “cannabis” “industry”— John “hiccup” Boehner (whose daughter is married to a Rastafarian Jamaican former posse member— imagine that kind of gangnam pressure on him, he with his considerable addiction problems of his own).
But yeah-— CBD oil can be vaped, or rubbed on sore joints topically. It is an amazing breakthrough, and many neurologist friends are excited at it’s potential for epileptic seizure control in tumor patients. A medical assistance sorely needed.
Therefore if there's no relief why wouldn't you try something that has little if any side affects? People sure go from one pain med to another hoping something will work!
Further most all medications come from one or a mixture of "plants" to begin with....or do people just think they're designed in a test tube out of thin air?
I can say if I was in unbearable pain or having seizures I'd be finding myself a physician fast who would be open to the use of CBDS and Marijuana...etc.....
