Wow. I knew I liked you. THC is a preventative for Alzheimer's, and maybe cancer.

I'm not in a state where THC is legal, so if it's still not available in a year or so, I'll have to move. I'm not about to risk my freedom, and illegal product here is not controlled, and may have harmful substances in it. And they are trying to get it legalized but I don't want to die, waiting for them to get their act together.

Yeah, I wouldn't risk a drug bust at my age.

I thought it was some sort of shady rip-off. It's not; they're clearly legit. There are even YouTube videos about using it. And it's for sale on Amazon, though I'm ordering from Bluebird.

I hope it works for me. Anyone know if this is effective?
No form of CBD edibles or oil or salve 200- 1000mg has ever done one thing for me.
But, that's just ME, understand.
However, I can take one Tylenol or some aspirin and pain is incredibly gone with , say, a sprained ankle.
so I feel I am effected by small amts of things, personally.

If I cook with 1/2 tsp of MMJ oil or butter i could be regretfully high for 6 hrs....I am in a legal state...
I quit that nonsense!

To give you my sensitivity background, is all.
Every single person's body is SO different!
Hope it works for you.

I do 3 Gelcaps of Ibu before bedtime, but had to discontinue during the day because of tinnitus, which developed a few months ago. When I stopped the Ibu, the tinnitus went away. So very weird. But would love to get off the Ibu entirely.

Have you seen this, ganja yoga classes:

Ganja Yoga Classes & Events ~~ Twisted Sister Colorado

O M G. Now I've officially seen everything.

We now have walk in stores in LA for TCH for medical and recreational uses....I can't afford the prices...and don't want to eat brownies and cookies laced with TCH...so for me the Ibu works...I will occasionally get some ringing but mostly not. I think the grape seed ex keeps my circulation working in my body including ears. Reading some info sites on ringing and grape seed ex and more magnesium are helping with this issue. I take good doses of both every day.

Yes. I plan to start the grape seed ex and magnesium but didn't want to confuse affects with the CBD oil. So, one thing at a time.

I have a hard time relating to the phrase "and don't want to eat brownies and cookies laced with TCH.." But I'm an aging hippie (albeit a well-behaved, hard working one who practiced the violin three hours a day from childhood), and sounds yummy to me.

Unless I misunderstand, big pharma is very worried about cannabis, which will cost them billions. I never trusted their chemical concoctions and refused to take them.

I just don't want to eat those sweets, I've changed so much of what I put in my body in the last couple yrs. And don't want to pay for those priced brownies. I had an old bf who really overdid the brownie MJ experience as he had a group of friends who munched on these all the time, they made their own.

BTW: grape seed ex does work to reduce amyloid plaque in the brain. I believe I've posted about it in Alt Med.

Yeah, I couldn't eat them, either, unless they were vegan (no eggs or dairy). I substitute ground flax seeds soaked in a little water in the fridge for a few hours.

I've been doing intermittent fasting and it feels great; no food from noon or 2:00 at the latest until 5 or 6 the following morning, a 16 hour fast. Some people do a 23-1 once in a while, only one meal a day. Sometimes I do that. Brownies are really not on the menu. Rich food on an empty stomach: yikes!!

Need to be very very careful with Ibupropen especially taking it every day. I loved loved it for my DDD, my scoliosis, my headaches from neck injury, and after a few years of dosing myself, I ended up with ulcers and Barretts Esophogas. Now, I cannot touch it unless absolutely necessary. Have to use Tylenol only which isn't quite doing it for me. The CBD is still in the cabinet. Still thinking about it but was just in the ER with diverticulitis, so not now.

ALL pain meds come with side effects, Tylenol too. I don't like taking ibu but live with a lot of OA pain and mostly now from a sloppy hip replacement from the medical world.

I ended up with an ulcer back in the 80's from a pharma anti inflammatory.

It would be great if CBD really did the job.

Try green mountain 100% CBD oil. It’s different than Charlottes Web (which is the whole plant) and honestly after trying both I find that the Green Mountain brand worked amazing for pain.
