In 1899 Aspirin was released to humans and it relieved pain and inflammation yet the chemical reasons for how it worked were not understood for decades, because, well, science takes time. Here in the good old USofA, Senator Orrin Hatch of Utah made sure supplements were not covered by the Food and Drug administration in the same way Aspirin is as is Tylenol. This is the reason the packaged products of CBD can be misleading. AND there are many other chemicals that make up marijuana which are not in hemp. Anything we buy will be inhaled by Big Pharma. I never really smoked weed or considered CBD until I had rectal cancer, invasive. . . then I found out how to smoke weed, real stuff, at home. I actually like knowing what I am getting and yes, it’s illegal in many states still. . .it’s a felony for the Feds.

Shall we discuss what marijana has done to our African-American population, that it was considered evil because black folks smoked weed when it was legal in the 30's? No, we never go there.
