I started taking a hemp-based CDB oil in August.

I was having specific joint pains in my right knee, right shoulder (tore labrum in the second half of the VT/BC game in 2004), left second metatarsal, and left first metatarsal. I also have recurring, chronic lower back pain.

I've also been popping a couple of curcumin gel caps a day for the last couple of years.

Since adding the CBD (THC-free) oil, I've noticed major relief from all of those pains. Sleeping has never been an issue for me, so that remains excellent. I'm up to four drops under my tongue in the morning and in the evening. That seems to be my "happy level".

I was recruited to start taking by my college/high school friend (who lurks around here). He starting taking it based on his wife's excellent results. He noted an incredible drop in his blood sugar levels.

So I can't tell you, scientifically, why it's worked for me, but it has worked for me. Shoot, it may all just be in my head, but that's okay. Lots of stuff wanders around inside my head.

Like you said, if it's working in your head or body, it's working! -- EDGEMAN 10/22/2019 09:59AM

...would never work for any outfit that would test for weed ** -- chumley 10/21/2019 5:11PM

I think one recruiting firm required one, even though the employer didn't. -- BG Hokie 10/21/2019 5:14PM

You shouldn't with most reputable, third party tested, brands. -- vthokieq 10/21/2019 1:07PM

Yes. Deeper sleep for sure, much less waking up for small noises -- HokieNoVA 10/21/2019 12:40PM

Most importantly, does that lead to feeling more well rested in the morning ** -- BG Hokie 10/21/2019 12:43PM

I'm chronically sleep deprived so I never wake up feeling overly rested -- HokieNoVA 10/21/2019 1:04PM

I don’t think so ** -- darnellm 10/21/2019 12:35PM

We'll know a lot more soon. Roughly 190 ongoing trials with CBD currently. -- BG Hokie 10/21/2019 12:34PM

Yep, I have amazing sleep whenever I take it. -- HokieAl 10/21/2019 12:23PM

Improves my sleep but then it doesn't... -- HokieDan95 10/21/2019 12:33PM
