Extracted from hemp, CBD oil contains natural compounds called cannabidiols (CBD) which are known to bestow health benefits.
For example, CBD is a cannabidiol that helps with inflammation and CBN is one that helps with sleep.
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 initially took an interest in CBD Oil because of its sleep promoting properties and decided to try it by ingesting CBD Gummies, which are gummies infused with CBD Oil. And while I did get help with my sleep, I also experienced an extremely painful Candidiasis rash. So, I did some research and discovered that the THC in the oil caused the rash because it suppressed my immune system.
Undeterred, I continued to investigate and found gummies infused with THC-Free CBD Oil (ie. THC-Free CBD Gummies). So, I gave them a try and did not experience a Candidiasis rash. I decided from then on to only use gummies infused with THC-Free CBD Oil.
HOW I USE THC-FREE CBD OIL
As a woman with Multiple Sclerosis (MS),I use THC-Free CBD Oil to help with sleep issues and to 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 THC-Free CBD Oil into my life as a natural remedy to help manage inflammation as well as help with sleep issues, like sleep deprivation, that can also cause inflammation. Therefore, THC-Free CBD Oil helps me manage inflammation.
And managing inflammation helps manage my MS.
PREFERENCES
I prefer to use CBD Gummies, rather just the oil. I ingest a THC-Free CBN Gummy every night, to help with sleep, and THC-Free CBD Gummies during the , to help with daytime aches and pains. I order them from Extract Labs. Note. I don’t do paid endorsements.
HAS THC-FREE CBD OIL HELPED ME?
Yes. It’s helped me with my sleep, as well as my daytime aches and pains, and helped lessen my menopause symptoms. I also discovered that the oil has anti-fungal properties, as other Candidiasis-related issues I’ve been struggling with for years started miraculously clearing up. So, not only does the oil not trigger Candidiasis, it helps prevent/manage it.
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.
Ingesting large amounts of anything can be harmful, so I always consume in moderation.
