I thought it was common knowledge by now that CBD does nothing? You need the real thing if you want the effects.
Yes.CBD has uses but is WAY over-hyped and through my research it can perform it's duties just by being present. Meaning increasing the dose of it is basically a waste? But having some cbd is crucial for some benefits to occur.
Such as with neurogenesis. It is the THC that dose dependently increases it but SOME CBD needs to be present for it to occur. But like my nerve pain can only get a small reduction regardless of whether I use a 10-30 mg or take a whole gram of isolate in. Add THC and the more you add the lower the pain.
Doesn't CBD being present prevent this overload from occurring?
In my reference to the neurogenesis the most in depth study I saw showed that at some point the THC quit being neuroprotective and started being somewhat neurotoxic. ANY amount of cbd ceased the toxicity and changed it to a dose dependent genesis? Hell of a time refinding this study but I generally retain information extremely well.
Are you in the USA?I am tempted just to get my dad to try the real thing. It's cheap and easy to get and saves all the hassle of paying $100 for a bottle of something that may not do anything.
Are you in the USA?
If you would be in the USA I would send you one bottle of the HempCell free of charge.No I live in Europe. I have never properly checked as my dad lives in the UK and me outside of the EU. Although I think it's legal for products to be sold containing 1% tetrahydrocannabinol where I live. Either way I am not too bothered but will have to check one the the shops when they reopen to find out details.

For me personally I wasn't after some dramatic effect (well it would have been nice) but again I wanted to feel something. Yes I don't feel most of my supplements but you see changes in blood markers and of course hope for the best in certain cases. But for the price I paid for this stuff I was hoping I would get some benefit in regards to anxiety, mood , lower back etc. For my dad I was hoping it would mainly help with pain. For certain other benefits (which I didn't get either) I can just use fish oil or extra virgin olive oil etc which I use anyway and they are much cheaper.

HEMP BOMBS is a company I have had success with and believe they operate in EU as well. They have oils, vape, edible gummys. I like the night time gummies CBD+melatonin and l-theanine (I think) they also had some capsules that were really strong I had a good effect with during the day. Listed as 25mg cbd but with a prop blend of 600+mgs and CBD was the first ingredient in the blend. Had success with the vape product as well but a capsule in the morning and a couple gummies at night helped my pain significantly.
Yes as with anything sometimes making your own is better than buying it separately but again as with anything:Thanks. The website looks really good. I will probably try something and my dad vapes so I can get him one of those as well. Although I notice many of their products contain some other ingredients that would definitely hit you. Melatonin appears in many of the relaxing ones and in others I see GABA which can hit you really hard. I actually plan to buy some GABA for when I use Eq so I don't mind that addition at all. I see the price variance is quite high between products, meaning it's better just buying one of their higher dosed products (without melatonin) and buying melatonin separate compared to buying one of their lower dosed products with melatonin in. I can get good melatonin at 10mg for 120 tabs for $8 a tub from iherb.
There’s a pretty big hemp company, Hemptown USA, they have a online store, I tried their Calm blend, which is capsules, CBD/CBG blend, that was really good. Snagged a # of samples at the Vegas Hemp and MMJ Expo back in December. They also have a sleep blend I wanted to try, but never did.I am tempted just to get my dad to try the real thing. It's cheap and easy to get and saves all the hassle of paying $100 for a bottle of something that may not do anything.

if you can afford it - why not?
if you can't - make your own
But like I said ALL product I tried through them were good, I vaped, used capsules, and gummies. All seemed legit to me. Never tried the oil but have no reason to doubt that company.
IF USA get some HEMPCELL I take one every morning and then I smoke mj throughout the day and use a humanofort + hemp flower at night. Works for me.
