Not too long ago, regulations on CBD changed in Germany leading to a plethora of products containing it. As someone who occasionally needs pain medication, I tried some of the products to avoid regular pain killers (ibu). Especially on days with lighter pain, I wished for an alternative to the sledgehammer meds. But I was left standing in the rain. I didn't feel any effect. That's why I would love to hear from your experiments and experience.

Only with CBD products bought at a marijuana dispensary. The crap they have at gas stations and the like does absolutely nothing.

My favorite has been Mary Jane's subliminal tincture. It's CBD oil in a 1:16 ratio of THC and unlike the other subliminals I've tried, they put some flavor in it so it's like butterscotch and not gross fish oil like flavor that gives me heartburn.

There's been some research and basically those products are unregulated and a good amount of them have zero or negligible actual CBD in them.

Some claim like, grams of CBD and they have zero in them it's just oil. It's basically homeopathic CBD.
