24: Hemp Your Hormones with Hemplily

"Consider natural alternatives; your body wants to heal." - Terri Long

For years Terri Long suffered from chronic pain and fatigue that left her struggling to function in everyday life. She bounced from doctor to doctor before finally being given a fibromyalgia diagnosis. But even with the medication she received, she still felt horrible.

Eventually, fed up with being stuck and believing her body could heal itself given the right circumstances and environment, Terri decided to take matters into her own hands. Her research started her natural healing journey and led to her discovery of the benefits of cannabis and hemp products. In 2017, Terri founded Hemplily with the mission of helping people get to rid of their pain and balance their minds and bodies.

Today Terri is joining us to dispel a lot of the misinformation about hemp and CBD products. Since CBD hit the mainstream, tons of new products hit the market, and many bad players have come out with low-quality products sold under misleading labels. Unfortunately, that left many people with a negative impression of CBD.

In this conversation, Terri and I talk about how hemp extracts have been integral on her healing journey, what you need to look for in a high-quality product, the pros and cons of different formats, how you can get started, and more. In my practice, I've prescribed it for issues like menstrual cramps, migraines, fibromyalgia, insomnia, and anxiety. I encourage you to be open to exploring natural alternatives and how the right hemp extracts could be helpful for you.
