    And now, with the November 2020 election, four more states will be up for cannabis legalization: Arizona, New Jersey, South Dakota and Mississippi.

    CBD and sometimes with THC added is useful for the two main types of pain, muskuloskeletal pain and nerve pain. These include pain in muscles and joints, and nerve ending pain, such as headaches and arthritis, respectively.

    Yes, that\’s true, it is more common place in most states, and has the potential to ease the effects of serious conditions and illnesses, such as cancer and multiple sclerosis, to name just two of them. For brain tumors,for example, CBD can enhance the property of THC to inhibit the growth and multiplying of glioblastoma cells. It\’s the entourage effect again, of the two working together to help stop the growth and spread of the malignant cells.

    Yes, it\’s true that CBD can help the brain in different ways. It can help with the regrowth of brain cells, which is called neurogenesis.

    Good to know. CBD can also help with cluster headaches and migraines. These are common in people who experience anxiety and depression. It treats the symptoms, as well as the causes of those conditions, since it can help to restore balance in the brain, via the endocannabinoid system, and therefore promotes a better feeling of well being and relaxation.

    Yes, agreed. It is non-addictive, and produces no euphoric feeling without THC. According to a Gallup Poll, 66% of adults approve of its use. It is currently awaiting approval at the federal level. The House and some Republicans are likely to vote in favor of the bill.

    Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry\’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

    Why do we use it?
    It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using \’Content here, content here\’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for \’lorem ipsum\’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

    Where does it come from?
    Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of \”de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum\” (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, \”Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..\”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

    The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from \”de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum\” by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.

    Yes, it will be a priority, hopefully soon. That is due to the fact that Congress is expected to vote on a bill to declassify cannabis as a controlled substance. The House, more predominantly democratic, is more in favor of its legalization in all 50 states. There are also some Republicans who support this bill. Also, 66% of Americans overall, and 51% of Republicans, are in favor of cannabis use. The bill to legalize cannabis use at the federal level will potentially bring cities and states much-needed revenue during these economically tough times during the pandemic.

    It is good that CBD helps with your anxiety. I have taken one half, 1/2 of a dropper,and it helps my anxiety, too. Anxiety is so much more prevalent during this time of Covid-19. CBD can also help with sleep issues, like with insomnia and nightmares, such as those stemming from PTSD. It has helped my migraines, too. Sometimes,I take it in conjunction with an NSAID, such as Aleve. I only take one tablet of the Aleve, and CBD can interact with certain types of anxiety medications, such as the benzodiazepines, of which class Valium, Xanax, and Ativan belong.

    Yes, it is more common to use CBD now. In Pennsylvania, you can get a medical cannabis card for conditions like anxiety. I just read that use in PA is growing, due to anxiety from the corona virus, since the virus has been increasing fears, and people\’s anxiety. They also use it for pain, like for neuropathy and cancer pain. It is becoming the case more often that CBD can help pain and anxiety when prescription medications have not helped, or aren\’t wanted.

    The hippocampus is actually located in the Medial Temporal Lobe, or MTL. CBD can help with memory by increasing blood flow to the hippocampus, and this may be beneficial to memory impairments such as Alzheimer\’s and PTSD. But the mechanism is not clearly known yet.

    THC makes you feel more relaxed because it works primarily on the CB1receptors of the endocannabinoid system. These are located in the central nervous system, which are made up of the brain and spinal cord. The peripheral nervous system, which includes the other areas of the body, are where the CB2 receptor sites are located, and these areas are primarily influenced by CBD. This occurs because CBD is the cannabinoid known to reduce pain, swelling and inflammation, without altering mood.

    Yes, hemp oil is extracted from the seeds of the hemp plant. They don\’t actually contain any cannabidiol, or CBD.

    Yes, it is. The flavors enhance the taste, and the CBD can have wellness and alertness benefits. The same with tea. I think I will try it sometime, since it\’s a good way to get a mental boost.
