“Many patients of mine have been inquiring about whether to try CBD Oil. They want to know about the safety and efficacy of CBD, what type to use, how much to take, and which of the hundreds of name brands are the most trustworthy. And now we have society looking for a safe, non-habit-forming alternative to narcotics and other pain medications.
My response is that based on my experience along with some of the studies we have seen thus far, CBD Oil is safe, non-addictive, and non-psychoactive- meaning, it won’t get you “high”. There is significant value in hemp-derived cannabinoids. There doesn’t seem to be any major or notable adverse side effects from CBD, other than possible drowsiness. It has also been reported that CBD may not interact well with certain cardiac medications- so of course, each patient should consult their physician before starting a CBD supplementation, just as they would with any other new regiment.
I also advise anyone considering taking CBD Oil to search for a company who discloses complete, multi-stage, independent lab results, and is compliant with current U.S. laws and regulations. The brand that I have seen to be the most credible and that I recommend is Omega Leaf CBD. Their company offers a 6-page Certificate of Analysis on all of their CBD Oils, and I’ve personally seen and heard of several successful stories from patients who use Omega Leaf CBD.
It is important to treat taking CBD Oil like you would many other alternative therapeutic or medicinal regiments- start slow and gradually build your way up to a point that seems to be most beneficial for you. Much like proper diet and exercise, you’ll benefit most from taking CBD Oil regularly and consistently- that way, it can have the greatest effect on the body’s own ECS (endocannabinoid system).
Omega Leaf is a company that offers a myriad of flavor and strength level options, making it easy to acquire the most helpful solution for your individual needs. Along with their credibility and commitment to quality, Omega Leaf CBD is the brand that I trust and recommend most.”
