CBD OIL

Extracted from hemp, CBD oil contains natural compounds called cannabidiols (CBD) which are known to bestow health benefits.

The oil also contains a small amount (less than 0.3%) of THC, a psychoactive and generally illegal compound. Since the legal limit for THC is O.3%, the oil is completely legal.

HEALTH BENEFITS

I took an interest in CBD Oil because of its sleep promoting properties.

HOW I USE CBD OIL

As a woman with Multiple Sclerosis (MS),I use CBD Oil to help with sleep issues and manage my MS. When I discovered that inflammation can cause MS relapses, with relapses being the worsening of current or creation of new MS symptoms, I incorporated CBD Oil into my life as a natural remedy to help with sleep issues, like sleep deprivation, that can cause inflammation. Therefore, CBD Oil helps me manage inflammation.

And managing inflammation helps manage my MS.

PREFERENCES

I prefer to use CBD Gummies, which are gummies infused with CBD Oil.

HAS CBD OIL HELPED ME?

Yes. I have found CBD Gummies that have helped me sleep, as well as, helped with daytime aches and pains, menopause symptoms, and Candidiasis.

CAUTION

Due to the ever possible occurrence of product contamination, I always double check my sources and check ingredient lists before trying a new item.

Allergic reactions can happen to anyone, so I do my research and keep my eyes open to any potentially dangerous reactions, especially drug interactions, when I try anything new. While I was investigating CBD Gummies, I discovered that THC suppresses the immune system. Since I’m sensitive to immunosuppressants, I sought out and successfully found Gummies without THC, that help me with my sleep.

Ingesting large amounts of anything can be harmful, so I always consume in moderation.
