What about CBD oil without any cannabis in it? My sister swears by it for pain, depression, anxiety etc without any of the effects of marijuana and it's legal in the USA

Good evening @queenofhearts921, I am trying to figure out your question. CBD is cannabis. So how do you get CBD oil without any cannabis or marijuana in it? Am I missing something? It is legal as long as there is no more than .05 percent THC. This can all be confusing. You can use Leafly to learn more about CBD. There is also a new site that has helpful dosing assistance.

Please let me know if you have experiences to share or questions looking for answers.

CBD oil is not known to do anything significant for pain, depression or anxiety. This is basically hype put out a sales pitch for products grown cheap with high retail. Can they work on some people? Maybe a little, could be more of a placebo effect. What may seem to help someone, may not help another at all. The price for these over the counter oils and salves is crazy. The only good thing is it is natural. Only CBD issues I know of is that it may interfere with blood thinners you are on, but it could do the same with certain drugs you need. Always confer with your Doctor before adding supplements to your routine. Nothing in life is harmless.
