We have a small store in town. I know the owner so hopefully she will not steer me wrong. I'm not sure about THC content. I don't have to worry about passing a drug test, but not sure if i want to go with it or w/o. So more reading...

You can get broad spectrum without the THC and still get the benefits.

Hey gang.

I've personally never tried CBD. I'm wondering if anyone out there uses or has used it? What did you think? Did it help? 

Here's a link to an article which I found interesting.

I’m still on three drops per day. I’m not sure it does much. I sleep well now but that’s a matter of not snoring anymore.

After a month of using it I saw no help on my glucose levels. Also no help on arthritic pain in my hands. It helped me sleep I think, about the same as a Jack N Coke. Sitting around the fire pit is more fun that so I think I'm done with this experiment.

I have tried it, but did not see or feel any benefits.

Maybe those that haven’t seen any benefits aren’t using a strong enough version or you bought a cheap knock off. Nobody says what brand, concentration level, or form. If you are using a balm or cream to lower your stress you most likely won’t see any benefits. Just like if you used drops for a sore neck you won’t get anything. Just like with any product there are good products and inferior. If you grab a CBD oil from 7-11 you wasted your money. Good stuff ain’t cheap. You should be ready to drop between $50 and $80 or more for the good stuff.

HealXSoothe Balm - 250mg Hemp Derived CBD Uses: Topical...

I presume you were somewhat referring to my post above yours in that I didn't do research or used ineffective products. These are the products I used for arthritis in my right ankle. Like I said, I really didn't notice any difference at all in pain relief.

I wasn’t singling you out. Pretty much everybody that says they tried it or are trying it hasn’t posted any info on what they are using or the result they are looking for. For you I would recommend ditching the hemp oil and getting either a broad or full spectrum cbd product. If you are worried about THC in any way get broad. If you have no issues with THC then get the full. I’m pretty sure you would see some benefit.  Green Roads is a good brand that I am familiar with. I have no vested interest in them or get anything if you buy something.

Well the CR is a full spectrum hemp extract, but lacks THC . Also, 900 mg bottle is a significant dosage, I know they make higher dosages like 3000 mg, but 900 mg full spectrum is significant. I appreciate your help.

Yea it is full spectrum hemp. CBD full spectrum is different. That 900mg isn’t the same as a 900mg CBD because CBD is more potent than hemp naturally due to it using more than just the seeds. So it’s not really apples to apples.

Anyone tried Phi Mickelsons Vytalyze CBD? Getting big reviews and high marks. Big pharma is angry with Phil.

All that CBD has done for me is lighten my wallet.


(edited)

I've tried CBD (not Phil's) for inflammation.  I probably need to be more consistent for a longer period of time but it's hard to be motivated when I'm not noticing any benefit.  For me it seems to be about the same as taking vitamins, like vitamins I'm not sure it's doing me any good.

CBD products have done nothing for me, except take my money.

    • Good advice.  When you see a golfer taking short steps, looking down at the ground, it's probably checking for temporary water.  There are plenty of cases were just hitting it from the bad lie is better than where you would drop it. Like hitting of a cart path.   
    • Yea I find it ridiculous people having an issue that he could drop in the fairway. Every relief situation is its own instance. You re-assess after a drop. Sometimes the drop is in your favor or not.  Too many scramble only golfers commenting on golf rulings. Usually scrambles you need to maintain the same lie if you hit with in a club length of the ball. 😉  
    • MSN J. J. Spaun relief from sprinkler head under fire for not being in the spirit of the game. While I understand the advantage he gains by dropping a ball that ended up in rough in the fairway doesn't seem to kosher in lot of people's eyes, but I suspect this happens more often than lot of people realize and players take the entitled relief every time when the opportunity present itself. Not fair to call him out as a person of 'no integrity' IMO.  A lot of people do not know that both fairway and rough are part of the same general area and ROG does not distinguish them as far as relief is concerned.
    • Jack played in 7 tournaments in 1986. He was on his way out. He was not training or trying to be the best in the world. Honestly, he just caught some good golf at the right time.  Who says Jack wasn't battling injuries at that time either? A lot of stuff wasn't reported on until post 2000 in terms of covering athletes.  At what capacity? He can play, but he can't compete at any sort of level for the PGA or Senior Tour.  Yes, most of them walk away.
