CBD for Pain & Sleep

with Mary Clifton

Marijuana is quickly becoming legal or at least decriminalized in most states. Billions of dollars of previously criminal revenue is suddenly on-the-books and taxable, and hundreds of products are flooding the market including everything from skincare to nutritional supplements.

But what does it all mean for you?

CBD (cannabidiol) is just one of dozens of cannabinoids in marijuana, and it's of particular interest for pain, anxiety, and sleep. CBD is non-psychoactive, meaning you won't get paranoid or faceplant into the couch, so it can be a natural and safe alternative to prescription drugs.

On this week's podcast, you'll meet a medical doctor whose work focused around the safe and effective medicinal use of this once-illicit plant. .

Listen & Learn:

  • How to choose an effective dose
  • How much it will cost
  • Hemp-derived vs. cannabis derived CBD
  • Will I get stoned
  • When to add THC (psychoactive) to a CBD dose
