CBD is good BUT because the FDA is still pretty uptight about the whole association with cannabis I’m not even sure if there’s
1) regulations in place to ensure consistency of potency across companies and the CBD they use
2) any real in depth peer reviewed studies. I could be wrong here but how would they test it on human subjects thoroughly if it was considered a Schedule 1 drug
I personally use the CBD gummies and isolate pills sold on InfiniteCBD. Not a plug or anything but I found that it has been the most effective one in my sampling journey. Wife also loves it too due to the fact it helps her sleep very well. We dose about 12.5mg and tend to not exceed that.
You might wanna consider inquiring on this CBD shop in KC, they are very knowledgable about the products and can give you good suggestions on what product and dosage you should take depending on your needs and not very pushy on selling too
The cheapest way is to but CBD isolate and mix your own tincture. It’s easy and there are guides out there, I’ll try to find one of the better ones and link it here.
I would not recommend THC, it can cause anxiety, paranoia, the munchies etc. CBD is said to be soothing. However concentrations in commercial products vary widely from claimed values.
Sometimes joint pain (no pun intended) can be cured or reduced using exercises. I have had painful knees for 15 years. Yoga style exercises are working wonders. The idea is that muscle imbalance can cause joints to misalign causing pain. Strengthen the muscles, and the pain goes.
Or grasp a stinging nettle. Seriously. I believe formic acid relieves arthritis.
I just googled stinging nettles and it sounds interesting. Creams containing it my help arthritis. Currently using Arnica rub. Next up is Joint Flex. I will give it a try next after them. All cheaper than CBD at this point. Maybe when it becomes more common, CBD will come down in price. Currently about $50-$60 a month by my calculations.
And you find it helpful for pain? Soon Amazon will be on the CBD bandwagon. Not sure why they keep skirting around the issue. Supposedly it is legal to ship to all 50 states at the federal level. Maybe state and local laws are holding them back.
ME. I wear a 25? Fentanyl patch. Take Targin pills and used to carry Endone (morphine) in my pocket for when I do things.
To control the pain.
The gov’t has a name for us consistent medical drug users.
Arthritis.
My Missus 73 yesterday.
She has it in back, Hips, and knees.
The best thing we’ve found (for her) Is to keep moving. Heat packs to suit when sitting
and in bed.
and a 32deg 8x4 pool in back yard.
The look on her face after 10 min’s in there. Is a sight to behold.
PURE RELIEF……
I had a stand alone SPA. under deck b4 the pool.
Temp,. set on 38deg.
That was a good cheaper version of relief for anybody
with Arthritis…
People should try one.
Reduces the drug dependency by around 70%.
Although. if you have it in my generation 78yrs.
The imminent coffin effect does a better job.
PERMANENT…. Pain relief. Yep? Chuckle.
