In addition to others experience(s) be sure to research the subject.

It is an unregulated product offering, hence anybody can say anything they want on the container or advertising. They put what ever they want into the making of the product. There will no doubt be little or no consistency to allow comparing.

Then you can make an informed (right or wrong) decision.

There are a couple of stores in our area...one is near the Lady Lake Library, behind the Subway. The other store is near Cracker Barrel and Lowes off from 441/27. The people at either store can direct you to what you need. I use full spectrum. Everyone is different re: whether they feel it helps or not. I've used CBD for about 2 yrs. One thing I've found is I sleep better. Know this is NOT MMJ---many get confused.

I had level 9.9 arthritic pain in one knee. I rubbed on some CBD oil and 100% of the pain is gone. It starts coming back in 5 days and I just apply some more.

It is true that there are zillions of mom/pop manufacturers with uncertain ingredients.

The CBD product that works is made by Crystal Creek Organics. (Pain Relief Cream.)

I have been using CBD for a couple of years for my aching joints and it works for me. I used to take lots of ibuprofen and aleve but became concerned about the long term effects of daily use and gave CBD a try. I use a company called Green Roads and buy on-line. Green Roads products are hemp derived, contain only trace amounts of THC, are tested by a credited independent lab, and are totally legal. After trying different products I found what works for me. I take two 10 mg gummies per day.

BobnBev, what brand do you use, and where do you get it? It would be helpful for those wanting to try it to hear a brand name from someone who is having good results.

Hand and Stone Spa has 400 mg balm that works pretty good. I buy my oil at Amethyst Aromatherapy on SR 44 next to the closed Bob's Zip Mart. (North side of the road between Morse and Buena Vista) They have various blends to work on different ailments.

I've had the same or better results using Absorbine Veterinary Liniment (Gel) for my shoulder arthritis. It's much less expensive than CBD oil and available at Sparr and Rural King.
