Hope for Many Conditions
CBD shows a lot of promise for many health conditions, including:
PTSD
Reduce Side Effects of Some Cancer Treatments
Heart Conditions
Diabetes
Substance Abuse
CBD is an appealing option for many because unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol, the psychoactive component in marijuana), it doesn’t make you high, and studies show that it doesn’t give you the negative side effects that you get with pharmaceuticals.
