  1. I wish he would have explained the studies (poorly done, one 2 credible ones with CBD and anxiety, one had TWELVE participants) instead of just site them.

  2. I just started taking CBD oil as a tincture in small doses a couple times a day and have noticed benefits very quickly. But it's important to do your research before you start taking it

  3. First we all need to educate our families on our human endocannabinoid system and then we can all understand why our bodies need these Cannabinoids and why they work in our body and eradicate toxic pharmaceutical pills and get our lives back fullstop 🌿🌏

  4. As a long time smoker, trying to stop cannabis for years has been difficult. I wonder the potential for CBD in regulating withdrawal symptoms from regular high thc cannabis use.

  5. It’s great stuff but like all supplements, sometimes you’re going to find a great one and sometimes you’re going to get a dud. It’s ok. Try different ones until you find something that works for you and look at the reviews. I hate getting high but I also don’t like having anxiety attacks. So, it really does take the edge off. I always say you should be the as self reliant as possible but CBD can calm you down enough to work on yourself better and getting back to normal.

  6. Good info. Wished he touched on the fact that although Hemp and Marijuana are both in the cannabis family, and look the same, they're two different plants.

  7. If you actually work for living you can't take CBD. Company pre hire drug tests or if you injure yourself most places automatically make you take a drug screen and you WILL fail if you take CBD. Don't do it.

  8. I doubt that cbd would have a negative affect over a long period of time.

    Cbd helps support the endocaboid system helping it to become more efficient and effective in its role to regulate alignments to do with stress, emotions, environment and etc.

    For example if we consume a lot of vegetables that are high in potassium, potassium helps support heart health and other parts of the body.

    We all need to eat the right foods daily to support the different bodly functions.

    Cbd oil is classed as a food supplement. It directly targets certain parts of the brain to help improve the endocaboid system.

    I could be wrong but this is what I am understanding from listening to this Ted talk.

    I have recently purchased cbd oil today as I have been suffering from anxiety and panic attacks.

    This reassures me that cbd could help strengthen my weaknesses around my anxiety.

    It will not cure it but hopefully will aid in my recovery.

    Stress is the biggest causes of inflammation and mental health problems and disease.

    Cbd seems to lower stress and improve the endocaboid system which in return helps you become stronger and more ressiliant in the long term.

  9. I smoke cbd joints. My cardiologist told me I have tachycardia, especially when i'm sleep. I've been smoking for one week, once a day and let me tell you it works. I still experience waking up with a pounding heart and sometimes anxiety but it's getting better and better. I don't wanna take the beta blockers because i know all what's happening to my heart and blood pressure is due to months of stress and anxiety. Waking up heart bpm is like 105, sometimes 130+. After doing deep breathing it's down to 95-92 and after smoking a few puffs of cbd joints 75-72bpm. Without deep breathing, the cbd brings my heart rate down to the 80's after a few minutes. I was skeptical but cbd works!! I'm about to incorporate the oil and more puffs during the day!!

  10. CBD works for me. Two blown discs in my spine, Painkillers dont touch it, CBD puts it in a padded box. Try it, give it a week and i bet you wot turn it down again.
