The doctor you spoke with may have made the suggestion based on your needs.\n\nOne major difference between cannabis-derived CBD and hemp-derived CBD is the extraction process. When CBD oil is extracted from cannabis, it's typically derived from the leaves and flowers of the plant, containing some THC. \nWhen CBD oil is extracted from hemp, it's made from hemp seeds or stalks of the plant, but it naturally never contains more than 0.3% THC. \n\nCheck out this article below that you may find helpful in breaking down the differences between CBD oil and Hemp Oil. \n\nI hope this information helps! :-) \n\nVeronicaB","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_12064-markdown","title":"What does high CBD mean for my health, I have joint pain.","slug":"what-does-high-cbd-mean-for-my-health-i-have-joint-pain","content":"\n_____________________\nHello,\nSeveral studies suggest that cannabis can help alleviate the pain of arthritis. And while cannabis research has historically focused  on THC, synthetic cannabinoids, or our own naturally occurring   cannabinoids, there is an evergrowing body of  research regarding the potential medicinal benefits of CBD.\n\nIn  a study with performed on mice with artificially induced arthritis, researchers concluded that \"CBD, through its combined immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory actions, has a potent anti-arthritic effect\" which may even \"block the   progression of arthritis.\"\nhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10920191\n\nResearchers in a different study concluded that \"topical CBD application  has therapeutic potential for relief of arthritis  pain and  inflammation\"\nhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4851925/\n\n\ndrkim\n_____________________\nHello there!\nTHC  temporarily increases blood pressure and heart rate,  so it should be  taken cautiously if you have significant  cardiovascular risk factors.\nHowever,  studies suggest that prolonged administration of THC, in both humans  and  experimental  animals, lowers both blood   pressure and heart  rate. Animal studies suggest that this may be due to   a reduction in  adrenergic tone, which is also how beta-blockers, such   as metoprolol, work as anti-hypertensives. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2228270/#R\n\nAlso,  a study published last year found that a 600mg dose of CBD reduced   blood  pressure while resting, as well as when under physical or mental    stress.https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5470879/#B7\n\nWhile  there are no clinical studies addressing the dosing of cannabis for  hypertension, I would likely recommend a high CBD vs low THC containing  product, such as a 20:1 edible, oil or spray -- dosing of 10mg of CBD  three times per day. You should keep a log to see if the addition of the  CBD:THC has had a positive effect on your blood pressure. \nHope this helps!\n\n\n\ndrkim\n_____________________\nHi there!\n CBD, through it's combined immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory actions, has a potent anti-arthritic effect which may even block the progression of arthritis.\nhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10920191\nAlso, a very recently published study concluded that \"topical CBD  application   has therapeutic potential for relief of arthritis  pain-related   behaviors and inflammation without evident side-effects.\" \nhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4851925/\nPerhaps most interesting, human synovial fluid (fluid in the joints  which  reduces friction) from osteoarthritis and rheumatoid joints  -- but not  from healthy joints -- contained the endocannabinoids  2-ag and   anandamine, which suggests that endocannabinoids are produced at the site of tissue injury to reduce inflammation. \nhttps://arthritis-research.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/ar2401\n\ndrkim\n_____________________\nOne of CBD's defining therapuetic qualities is that it reduces inflammation.

Unfortunately though, results from clinical studies have been  inconclusive and conflicting. However, \"an open-label  observational study assessing the clinical effect of cannabis on motor  and non-motor symptoms of PD revealed significant improvement after  treatment in tremor (P < 0.001), rigidity(P = 0.004), and   bradykinesia (P < 0.001).\"\nhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24614667\n\nAlso, typical neuropathological features of Parkinson's include  degeneration of dopaminergic neurons--several studies suggest that cannabis has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and other properties that could be  neuroprotective, which may explain some of the positive results some studies have show regarding cannabis and Parkinson's.\nhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4926438/\n\n\ndrkim\n_____________________\nAnd although the research regarding cannabis and motor symptoms of PD has  been conflicting, cannabis has been shown to mitigate many of the non-motor symptoms which often accompany Parkinson's, such as insomnia, pain, anxiety and depression.\n\nAltogether, I consider cannabis as a valuable adjunctive medicine for the treatment of Parkinson's, which should improve the quality of life for most patients afflicted with Parkinson's disease and may even slow the progression of the disease and reduce motor symptoms.\n\nHigher  concentrations of CBD vs THC, such as 20CBD:1THC, will lessen, or even  eliminate psychoactive effects, while still providing pain relief.  However, products with similar levels of CBD and  THC, such as 1:1, are more effective at treating pain, insomnia and  anxiety.  So, for most people, it takes some trial and error before  finding a compromise that provides noticeable relief, while also  avoiding unwanted side effects.\nAs an example:\nFor pain and PD treatment-\nhttps://www.cbd.org/cbd-soft-gels-41 - take one capsule every three to four hours. Each pill should contain 2.5mg of THC, which will likely cause mild psychoactive effects. \nIf you'd like to avoid any psychoactive effects, I'd recommend a product, such as https://www.cbd.org/products/chocolates/18-1-chocolate, also taken every three to four hours\nFor sleep and PD treatment-\nhttps://www.cbd.org/products/chocolates/1-1-chocolate - take one piece one to two hours before bedtime.\nHope this helps!\n\n\ndrkim","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_12044-markdown","title":"How many mg’s Of CBD are contained within this product?","slug":"how-many-mg-s-of-cbd-are-contained-within-this-product","content":"\n_____________________\nAccording to Basic Jane, the Relieve cream was specifically formulated to target pain.  It contains 0.6% menthol and approximately 90 mg of CBD per 2 ounce container.\n\nKevin P.","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_12038-markdown","title":" i am currently taking cbd tincture at 15 mg sublingual twiv","slug":"i-am-currently-taking-cbd-tincture-at-15-mg-sublingual-twiv","content":"","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_12028-markdown","title":"is CBD oil good for Type 2 diabetes?","slug":"is-cbd-oil-good-for-type-2-diabetes","content":"\n_____________________\nHello and thank you for the great question, \nDiabetes  is associated with high levels of fasting insulin and insulin  resistance, as well as low levels of HDL (good cholesterol). In 2013,  the results of a five-year study into the effects of cannabis on fasting  insulin and insulin resistance were published in the American Journal  of Medicine.\nThe researchers found that current users of cannabis had \n16% lower fasting insulin levels than respondents who had never used cannabis, and\n17% lower levels of insulin resistance and higher levels of HDL. \nRespondents  who had used cannabis in their lifetime but were not current users  showed similar but less pronounced associations, indicating that the  protective effect of cannabis fades with time.\nThe  researchers also ran analyses on the data that excluded individuals  diagnosed with diabetes. Even after excluding diabetics, current  cannabis users were found to exhibit reduced fasting insulin and insulin  resistance levels, indicating that cannabis can help prevent the  occurrence of diabetes as well as alleviate symptoms in diagnosed cases.\nhttps://www.amjmed.com/article/S0002-9343(13)00200-3/fulltext\n\ndrkim\n_____________________\nThere have also been a few preclinical studies showing promising results, which may help explain the above results.\nhttps://www.projectcbd.org/diabetes.\n\"We now report that CBD treatment significantly reduces the incidence of  diabetes...from an incidence of 86% in non-treated-control mice to an incidence of 30% in CBD-treated mice...possibly through an immunomodulatory mechanism\"\nhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16698671\n\nResearches  conducting a similar study found that only 32% of CBD-treated mice in the early stages of diabetes progressed to overt diabetes, whereas 100%  of the non-CBD-treated mice did progress to overt diabetes.
