CBD

[Langeranger]

For many years I've been slowed by lumbar and hip area pain from osteoarthritis and a lifetime of minor sports injuries. I've recently become aware of the apparent salutary effect of CBD oil and/or gummies on my type of pain. I'm a bit concerned about how well regulated (if at all) the production of CBD products is. Anyone here know anything about it? Don

Think I’ll stick with Aspercream.

Check this out before you buy CBD products:

In a report to the U.S. House Committee on Appropriations and the U.S. Senate Committee on Appropriations, the FDA released findings from its sampling study on the current CBD marketplace and determined that many of the products tested were mislabeled, containing either less or more CBD than advertised.

Two hundred products were randomly chosen for testing this year, including tinctures, oils, capsules, edibles, drinks and pet products. Testing for cannabinoids was done for 147 of the 200 products and found that 49% contained some THC. Out of the 102 products that listed a specific amount of CBD, 18% of products contained significantly less than the amount indicated and 37% contained significantly more than indicated.

For the 20 edible and beverage products tested that had an amount of CBD marketed on their labels, five had less than 80% of the amount of CBD indicated and six had more than 120% of the CBD marketed on its label.
