The essential book on CBD as medicine This practical, accessible guide to using CBD-dominant cannabis contains a wealth of information for both first-time explorers and experienced patients who want to know more about safely treating a number of health conditions with remarkable results and low to no psychoactivity or negative side effects. CBD (cannabidiol) is a component of cannabis that can provide relief for conditions such as seizures, pain, inflammation, anxiety, depression, arthritis, and a number of other issues. This book offers guidance on various forms of the medicine such as oil infusions, alcohol-based tinctures, capsules, and CO2 concentrated extracts. The information is organized by health condition and also by recommended CBD-rich strains, which do not produce the "highs" associated with THC. With dosage suggestions, potential side effects and contraindications, and the pharmacology of the plant, this is an essential guide for both doctors and patients looking for a nontoxic alternative to opiate-based pain medications and other pharmaceuticals. While cannabis has been used for medicinal and recreational purposes for thousands of years, only in the last fifty years have scientists begun to shed light on the chemistry of the plant and its interactions with the human body. Research has led to the discovery of a whole new system in the body, the endocannabinoid system, which plays a role in mediating functions such as appetite, immunity, mood, pain response, and memory. The authors present case studies, interviews with doctors who prescribe cannabidiol products, and the latest research regarding other active phytocannabinoids and terpenoids present in cannabis that are being studied for medical use. They also address the difference between CBD products derived from industrial hemp or in a lab, versus those made from medical marijuana using the whole plant. In addition to offering the most up-to-date and comprehensive information on CBD-dominant cannabis therapy for humans, this book is the first to offer guidance for using the medicine for animals, with suggestions for dosage and delivery and useful forms and strains for common health issues in pets. Finally, the authors take a look at the future of cannabis medicine, charting trends in the legalization movement and suggesting how CBD might be used to fight the opioid epidemic.

The Essential Guide to CBD is an authoritative but user-friendly primer on CBD. CBD has splashed across the nation’s headlines, taken the country by storm, and has everyone from Coca-Cola to Starbucks considering adding this new “miracle supplement” to their drinks. But the FDA has only approved it for use in treating epilepsy in children. What is CBD, anyway? What’s the difference between CBD, THC, cannabis, hemp, and marijuana? Can CBD help me lose weight? How much CBD do I need to take to help my condition? What do I look for when buying CBD? Is it better to take CBD oil or gummies or what? The Essential Guide to CBD will answer all of these questions and much more, including both first-person anecdotes of real people’s experiences with CBD and straightforward reporting about what studies have actually been done and what they show. Written in part by the experts at Project CBD, the book will separate fact from fiction, hype from reality.

The Perfect Guide for Beginner CBD/Hemp Users! Have you been looking for a healthy and easy way to de-stress, relieve anxiety, and achieve relaxation? Marijuana is a go-to for many in this situation, but what if you wanted all of these elements without the high? Enter CBD and hemp products. Maybe you’re on the fence about trying CBD and hemp. Maybe you’re nervous about its effects, or maybe you just don’t know what to do with the products once you buy them. Did you know that most CBD that people purchase off the shelf at grocers or retail stores is strictly a hemp product? Often, these products also contains hemp seed oil, which is a culinary product that has been available on the shelf for many years. Many other retail consumer products contain hemp seed oil only and no CBD at all, actually. But that's okay, because both hemp seed oil and CBD oil have their own therapeutic or culinary value. Sandra Hinchliffe—creator of PosyandKettle.com, contributor to High Times, and author of three books about cannabis and CBD—can guide you through the types of products available to you in mainstream stores and how to use each one. Hinchliffe introduces the beginner CBD/hemp user to 75 different ways they can use the products they’ve purchased—no cannabis farming, dispensary visits, or DIY involved. These include: Smoothies Bowls Beverage Snacks and treats CBD spa products aromatherapy and more!
