What Are People Saying about CBD Oil? It's all over the internet and the talk of many healthcare professionals, massage therapists, yoga instructors, and chiropractors: CBD hemp oil has a wide variety of health benefits that have helped to support the overall well-being of people and pets of all ages. Because CBD hemp oil is a dietary supplement, it is regulated by the FDA. Companies are unable to make claims regarding specific results or health concerns that are positively impacted by cannabis oil – but verified users of the products can and do add independent reviews of their personal experience with the product. So, what is everyone saying? Helps Stabilize Moods On the public  review  page of Functional Remedies, "Cedar Kelly" wrote about her experience using CBD oil tinctures from Functional Remedies for two weeks.

CBD Oil & Herxing... feeling worse before feeling better

  CBD Oil & Herxing ...  feeling worse before feeling better   CBD Oil & Herxing... feeling worse before feeling better What is it? Also known as the "Herxheimer Reaction", this reaction occurs when the body tries to eliminate toxins at a faster rate than they can be properly disposed of. The more toxic one's bodily systems are, the more severe the detoxification, or healing crisis. It is characterized by a temporary increase in symptoms during the cleansing or detox process which may be mild or severe. You may feel worse and therefore conclude that the treatment is not working. But these reactions are instead signs that the treatment is working and that your body is going through the process of cleaning itself of impurities, toxins and imbalances. Such reactions are temporary and can occur immediately -- or within several days, or even several weeks, of a detox. Symptoms usually pass within 1-3 days, but on rare occasions can last several we

  US Patent 6-630-507 and  Why You Need to Know About This Posted at 18:33h  in  News by HempMeds In 1999, a group of researchers, including Nobel Laureate Julius Axelrod, filed a patent application on behalf of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) declaring that cannabis has medicinal value. Patent 6,630,507, “Cannabinoids as antioxidants and neuroprotectants”, was awarded 4 years later in 2003 to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Think about that for a moment. The U.S. Government, who refuses to acknowledge marijuana as having “any medicinal value”, and keeps it on the Schedule 1 drug list, applied for and owns a patent, on marijuana as a form of medicine. If that doesn’t fall under “say one thing then do something else”, we don’t know what does. It’s a baffling hypocrisy, isn’t it? Why would the government, and we’re talking about scientists, PhDs and M.D.s here, not politicians, keep valuable information about treating life-threatening and chronic

Here are five things you might not, but definitely should know about our favorite green plant, hemp.  1. Hemp cleans soil and air The Mighty Hemp comes to the rescue for soil who has been exposed to toxins. Through phytoremediation, the powerful plant pulls toxins up through its roots where it stores or transforms the pollutants. Most famously known for cleaning radioactive materials from the soil around the infamous nuclear reactor, Chernobyl, clearly the Mighty Hemp can clean up even the hottest (radioactive) mess. This is a key reason that hemp is awe-inspiring, but it’s an even bigger reason that anyone consuming hemp products should ask: Where does my hemp come from? You need to know that your hemp is grown in clean, tested and cared-for soil. Just like ours. We source our organically grown hemp from Industrial Hemp farms that produce some of the richest CBD Hemp in the USA. Our CBD is completely isolated through CO2 extraction and crystal precipitation and is of the h

Does CBD Show Up in Drug Tests Posted at 15:19h  in  Health by HempMeds Many who are interested in starting a CBD oil supplement routine are hesitant out of concern over whether or not CBD oil could cause them to fail a drug test. While there are many benefits to a CBD oil regimen, we understand that they aren’t worth risking the consequences of a failed drug test. Today, we explore CBD oil and drug tests and answer the question, “Will CBD oil make me fail my drug test?” WHAT IS A DRUG TEST? A drug test, also referred to as a drug screening, analyzes urine to detect the presence of illegal drugs or prescription medications. Different drug tests screen for different drugs, depending on the needs of those administering it. Drug tests can use urine, blood, hair, sweat, or saliva, with each providing its own advantages for screening, including time since use, minimum amount detected, and accuracy. Drug tests have now become a common condition before employment, but they are
