A friend brought me some CBD oil from Amsterdam. I checked with my doctors before trying it, and both gave a green light. They (independently) both said the same thing: about half their patients reports good results, the other half see no result at all. One doctor pondered whether the "placebo effect" could be part of the ones with positive reports.

I have tried it now 6 or 8 times. No noticeable effect. The friend who bought it for me has a family member in the medical field. She said it needs to "ramp up" in your system to be effective. But both of my doctors said no, that is not true.

Perhaps I need to mix it with some DMSO to super-charge it? :laughing:

My wife has severe osteo arthritis and lives with pain. She's used a variety of prescription and OTC pain killer ointments and pills (things like Voltaren) with modest results. She is now using a CBD cream legal in our state that has been much more effective and longer lasting. But she has friends with pain who've gotten very little relief with CBD. I've tried it with some tendonitis in my hands and it is some help, but not more than some other creams. So obviously it has better results with some people than others.

What ever happened to DMSO?

Good question California.

Below is an article with footnotes and comments. It has been years since I have used it. It seems to be an over the counter medicine labelled for animal usage.

I think the best CBD products are the ones with some THC in it. My friends doctors noted our bodies have THC and CBD receptors. To get the most benefit, both of those receptors need to be satisfied. I think my friend benefit the most because he was taking THC with the CBD.

This is nothing scientific, just an observation.

Yes we have the receptors because the body can produce these products. I to expect the full spectrum CBD oil may offer the best shot for pain management/gut microbiome health.
Four Types of Cannabinoid Receptors For Killing Pain and Stopping Inflammation

Cannabinoids produced in the human body have an anti-inflammatory effect.

I expect the body created receptors for CBD for a health reason. The same goes for like Vitamin D receptors that we have nearly 3000 receptor sites located in the human body.

CBD oil seems to be a part of something I only learned from through another patient in a doctor office a few weeks ago. He was telling about a friend that used CBD oil. That friend picked it up from Joe Tippens blog. Personally I find some brands of CBD oil does help my point pain but most what I read about it seems positive but there are too many people making is sound like magic for headaches to cancer. The lack of scientific research is overwhelmed by anecdotal stories about CBD oil usage that we have no way of easily knowing where to believe these stories.

On next Saturday 7 Mar 2020 872 acres of good farm land is up for an absolute auction that is in like 15 tracts. A firm raised a lot of funds for hemp production and purchased this land for $10,000 per acre from a guy that I know. A lot of money has been lost in the last year or two in KY trying to get rich off the CBD oil market.

Interesting. Clearly there's a lot of big-money speculation in hemp, CBD, marijuana. Your example sounds like the California gold mines story for the past 160 years - The real money is made by the promoters and they take out their profit from the investors before any production begins. Then most of the time the gold vein is discovered to be limited and the startup cost isn't recovered before the gold runs out. Promoters win, investors lose. Then re-name the mining corporation and start again with a new site, and new marks to fleece. Sounds like growing dope is the modern version of this.

And on the local front: I recently got a letter saying it was sent to all small-acreage parcels in my region asking if I wanted to allow a marijuana grow, on an acre of my orchard. (Its 11 acres overall, 8 in production). Oh H- no! We read of home-invasion robberies, illegals hidden as grow labor, all kinds of problems. No way!!! I didn't answer.

I think we are going to see the big tobacco companies take over growing marijuana, undercutting and replacing the stoner growers.
