    The problem is that a lot of focus has placed on increasing THC content but they do not pay attention to also increasing CBD content, this balance is necessary for the antipsychotic properties of the CBD to offset the THC.

    If you are dumb enough to risk you CDL on some hippies who promise their CBD has 0.0% THC you will have a lot of free time to wonder why you have "bad luck".

    I have wasted knees and would love to use CBD. Since I have a CDL and would like to keep it that is not an option for now.

    I appreciate the thought, however I am a night person, sleep will just have to take care of itself in 4 hour blocks. Thats one thing I do plenty of on bad days. Keeps the overall issues down. Im still active.

    The one palsy I get now and then is where the oil on the back of the hand calms it down three times a month or so. Restores my ability to use fingers for small tiny things. like screws inside of living computer cases replacing burned out parts. In the past Ive always thought that is from old iron in trucking and shaky is part of life. But these new things offer a oppertunity to fight that and make a better day without excessive drugs or doping up etc.

    We are very careful with it and frankly it could not be better. Ive got other problems with the body, but that will just have to take care of itself with very little medicine. I spent the last 10 years or so doped up and that did not work. So I gone the other way, strictly as needed and very little of it.

    Take a pee test and find out how legal CBD is.

    All you have is someone's word there is no THC in CBD products. Supplement rules & regulations are virtually non-existent. They are exempt from the rules for food and for even over-the-counter remedies. Buyer beware.
     
    Linte_Loco Thanks this.

    The feds have put out a warning to drivers about CBD products. The Food and Drug Administration does not currently certify the levels of THC in CBD products, so there is no federal oversight to ensure that the labels are accurate. And if the THC shows up in a random, you fail. Period.

    In several places where Hemp is grown for extracting CBD, you see signs outside the farms/green houses.
    “Hemp for CBD, only O.3% THC, this is not marijuana”

    In spite of what you think.

    CBd isn't legal for professions that require random drug tests. You will fail for thc.
