I never had used CBD before but the guy at the market asked if I had any pain “ yeah my foot “ gave me a pea size of the ointment put it on my foot and said” I’m walking to the end and if it helps I’ll be back” I literally took 3 steps turned around and bought the tin. My husband didn’t believe me til his knee was bothering him and he tried it now he uses it more than I do ������������

One thing to remember about CBD products is that it’s classified like the other herbal remedies sold at so-called health food stores. The amount of active ingredient listed on the label is not checked by the FDA. Your ointment with 2000 milligrams (that is, 2 grams) may actually have what it says on the bottle, while another brand right next to it that claims to have the same amount may actually have only 200 mg instead of 2000. Like all of these herbal remedies, some brands are consistently powerful and some, even though well-known brands, are not giving you what you pay for. This is a case where it helps to get the advice of those who use a specific product made by a specific brand that turns out to work and try that one.
I’ve tried it only once—when a friend gave me some CBD cream to rub on a pulled back muscle near my spine—and it took away the pain within a couple minutes. That lasted until I got home and could sleep away the muscle pull and relax. My girlfriend uses a specific brand of CBD gummies to help her sleep if she wakes in the middle of the night. (SunMed Hemp Supplement Peach and Watermelon Rings with a claimed 30 mg of hemp, though it admits that it might only be 25 mg. CBD you ingest doesn’t need to be nearly as strong as what gets soaked up through your skin, but it works differently. She uses SunMed Topical Cream to rub on her aching hands, no CBD content given, but that’s about $250 for four ounces, though as one uses a pea-sized amount, that probably works out to a couple dollars per use.)
