    I recently started using it for back pain and related insomnia and it seems to be helping. What is it you want to use it for?
    I've seen a lot of wild claims about how it cures everything including cancer, which I ignore but there is *some *evidence that it might help some conditions. Be aware that if you're on other medications it can interact

    I haven't tried it internally, but as a rub for fibro and arthritis, it's amazing! I've used the other kind (THC ?) As edible melts for sleeping, but they really didn't help.me fall asleep faster, just stay out a bit longer. I don't smoke and absolutely hate the smell, so those are my only close up experiances with tje stuff.

    I've used 500 mg CBD oil, did nothing but make me feel tired. I ordered 1000 mg CBD oil recently, and am hoping the extra strength will help with anxiety and back pain. I vape it, which is the fastest relief possible.

    Check the ingredients.
    Many CBD oil products also contain melatonin. Melatonin is the sleep aid component.
    Pure CBD can help with some things like Crohn's.

    We're using it with with my son to help with anxiety while we're waiting for a doctor's appointment. It helps him focus a bit with concentration while he's doing school (we homeschool). It seems to help.

    I've heard that the connections to cancer are related to it as a digestive aid (like with Crohn's) since chemo often results in nausea and loss of appetite. So it's not that it cures cancer, it's that it makes the treatment more tolerable.
