CBD Oil any advice

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

Ordered some 35% CBD oil and 15% vape juice. Read some great reviews from people regarding helping with anxiety (and no these people didn't mention brands or try and sell anything) so going to give it a go. If it's shite, it's shite, but it's worth a try. Should be here tomorrow! I was going to buy the vape pen anyway to stop smoking when I drink. It's the last step i can't kick.

It might be a placebo but since I've been doing Keto (Not long I'll grant you) but my back pain has decreased significantly.

I've been thinking about doing paleo or back to keto, partly due to the decrease in inflammatory response associated with little to no refined carbs. This might explain your situation.

 

Note: Been listening to an audiobook "Wired to eat" and it's quite interesting. This and any reading I've done on keto previously are my only sources of information so not even close to "knowing" what I'm talking about. Just regurgitating some vague models and concepts I've picked up.

That's the reason I tried it, to reduce inflammation which seems to be working. I find Keto very limiting but if it decreases pain it's worth it, with the added benefit of getting lean as fuck.

Been on the oil for about two weeks now -- definitely has helped with lower back(sciatica) and sleep.

Must be just me then. I’m like a cockroach, nothing can kill me so this stuff has no effect.

CBD oil and vape juice arrived today. Could be placebo but there's significantly less worry chatter knocking about my noggin. Will update over time. Planning on taking one drop under my tongue 2-3 times a day, and the occasional vape 50/50 CBD vape juice/vape flavoured juice.

Got it from a guy my mate set me up with on wicker. He also sells ecigs with THC etc. My mates were fucked in two hits they other night. Some stuff. I couldn't try it thought. Would make me literally insane.

 

It was £80 for 10ml if 35% full spectrum CBD - 3500mg CBD total.

How much do you use per go? 10ml doesn't seem a lot for 80 notes

A drop is about 0.05ml so there's 200 drops. I'm using 2-3 drops a day so should last 2 months. Time will tell if it's any use.

It is pretty expensive compared to a vitamin for instance

Keto will reduce inflammation; however, over a longer period of time, assuming a much higher dietary fat content, some people on Keto become susceptible to gall stones, because the gall bladder struggles to process higher fat diets. A low fat whole food plant based diet also reduces inflammation, but w/o the risk to the gall bladder.

Yeah it's not perfect.

 

I couldn't become vegan though, I work with  women who had bad arthritis in her hands and veganism has completely fixed that but it's incredibly hard to follow.

The CBD oil didn't seem to affect me much over time. Maybe placebo at first.

 

Since then bought some CBD flower after trying it at a mates. None of the instant paranoia of weed, but with the lovely smell, ritual of smoking, and the definite body relaxation sensation. Early days but I quote like this. And bonus: I could see it easing the immediate craving for smoking I get after a few drinks. I'm sure smoking hemp isn't "healthy" but if I only used it occasionally and used it to replace drunken cigarettes, probably a net benefit?

As this is an oil and used for pain relief,can't you just swallow a drop or two when needed rather than smoking it?

She used the drops under the tongue for a few months but it wasn’t massively effective, the oil supposedly gets into the system much quicker via vape.

Ordered a tub of these to help my sleep as it's been crap again lately just getting a bit stressed and over-thinking things I know can be resolved. Just had one. I'll report back tomorrow. Badly need a good nights kip. I'm not a weed smoker, it's never really agreed with me so I am a bit sceptical but her mate recommended these.

A quid per sweet and only 15 in the pack and dosage is multiple sweets per day? 

 

Seems expensive, can you still get flims of rocky?
