It turns out that some ailments may benefit from CBD, but not all of the ailments that are now claimed to be treatable. For example, it is unclear whether CBD can treat cancer. Studies have shown that CBD can help relieve sleep problems, fibromyalgia, muscle cramps and anxiety associated with MS. Clearly, more investigation is necessary.

Some users have found that oral CBD can reduce anxiety and pain and improve sleep quality. The plethora of CBD products on the market today, especially those applied to the skin, may not have the same effect. Therefore, it is currently impossible to say whether they have any clinical value.

Based on testing, many products do not contain the ingredients stated on the label. It's possible that they don't have as much CBD as they claim. Therefore, customers should proceed with caution.

What is the best place to buy CBD products?

In states where marijuana dispensaries are legal, you should go and see if it's something you're interested in. In order for customers to know exactly how much CBD is in a product and whether it also contains THC, products sold in pharmacies must be clearly labeled. If you see small amounts of THC in CBD products, there is no need to panic. Those who want to drive after ingesting larger amounts run the risk of getting "high," which can be dangerous.

It is important to remember that CBD products are not uniformly produced. Therefore, their potency will vary. As long as you keep a journal, it's easy to remember what CBD product and dosage you used and how your body responded to it. So, based on this information, you can track what works for your condition and what doesn't.

Is CBD safe to eat?

CBD tablets, chewables, or tinctures are the safest way to ingest it. Avoid any illegally available synthetic CBD products, often referred to as "bath salts" or "spice," and instead opt for legally grown and harvested natural CBD products. These drugs have been associated with psychiatric side effects in some users, and their use poses a significant risk to a person's health.

CBD appears to be a relatively safe substance when taken by healthy adults. Negative effects of CBD include but are not limited to nausea, fatigue and irritability. Always speak with your doctor before using this product to make sure it does not interact with anything else you are taking.

However, for young people under the age of 21, the situation is different. The amount of CBD that children can safely take has not been established.

As cannabis products such as CBD are legalized for medical and recreational purposes in some jurisdictions, current research is collecting data on cannabidiol. After 5 to 10 years, more information will be available, including whether there are unknown dangers associated with long-term use.
