Gundry MD protein shake: Hemp ingredient

Well, that was your first mistake.

 

I’m allergic to protein so I get wanting to try something else but what are the benefits from it? Stronger? Faster? Smarter? Bigger bank account for them selling it? I’m sure it’s gotta be one of those.

 

Don't trust strange products on the internet.

 

Well, I do agree a driver shouldn't be looking into these kinds of treatments, and I'm not advocating this in any way, but in Colorado, they take the cannabis health industry very seriously. Not the stuff that gets you high. It's highly regulated and watched very carefully. Anytime products are sold to the public, there's a lot of hoops to go through. Perhaps it's in peoples minds, but they claim it's for "pain management" and who is to say? Gramps took a nip of gin now and then, and eased the pain, it's nothing new. The world is an ugly place when one is in pain, and most will throw all caution to the wind in search of relief, and with the roller coaster of modern medicine today, people have no choice but to try anything, within reason, of course, that's not all bad. And,,it just might put a crimp in doctors runaway health care costs for once.

 

Let’s see -

Fly by night company you’ve never heard of? Check.

Making sketchy health claims with no proof other than vague claims about the magic of cannabis? Check.

Ads on all the major networks, er, on Youtube? Check.

Traditionally, what happens is you pee hot then say, “You promised your product had no THC”. They’ll claim you’re just trying to blame them for your marijuana addiction. You take them to court and after a few years and a thousands of dollars in legal fees win in court. You collect the lint under the sofa cushions in their lobby because that’s what their net assets are worth.

Ask yourself, what happens if this goes sideways and I lose my CDL? What’s your plan B? What benefits would you gain from this product that would make losing your CDL worth it?

 

I would like to see more people educate themselves on the topic. Hemp seeds by themselves are not going to make you fail a drug test. They contain almost no THC or CBDs. Industrial hemp already has such a low THC content, that it would be virtually impossible to contaminate the exterior of the seeds through contact with the parts of the plant that contain the cannabinoids. Hemp protein is processed from the seeds. For plant based diets, it's one of the few complete proteins and a good source of Omega fatty acids. There are people who consume this stuff almost every day that do not fail drug tests. They've been selling this stuff for years in the US, even before states started legalizing cannabis. This is not a magical medicinal remedy, it's a nutritional supplement.

 

The people that use every imaginable and created nutritional supplement think everyone would be better off if they also took the full-time job of listening to snake-oil claims and worshiping at the altar of "all natural." The nutritional supplement business is exempt from almost all rules (DHSEA) that regulate food or drugs. The industry is a hotbed of fraud and fantasy. The same company can sell sawdust capsules to "support your body's natural hair-growing ability" or to "support your body's natural fat-burning ability." As long as the company doesn't claim this product cures disease A, by only saying "this product supports your body's ability to fight X, they can suggests it does anything from contraception to predicting next week's lottery numbers. There is no requirement that the product contain what is printed on the side of the container. With China making drugs and supplements so cheaply sometimes it's cheaper to sell a generic pharmaceutical as an herbal remedy. It's as unregulated as buying a ziploc of pills from a stranger on the street. It's all placebo effect.The discussion by the "witch-doctors" is just to enforce in the minds of the customers what is supposed to happen. One of the most effective tricks is to "strongly warn" the customer to not take too much of this ancient Chinese secret. This is translated in the mind of the victim as "this stuff must be really powerful or they wouldn't warn me." Testimonials are your first sign the "all-natural" thing is likely a hoax.

 

No . hemp doesnt have any thc in it.

 

Using no hemp products is even more effective and certain in avoiding a false-positve drug screen. If you fail the drug test nobody is getting their CDL back by saying "but the hippy in that RV at the truck stop said this had ALMOST NO THC in it.
