CBD
Hello! How do you folks feel about CBD in early recovery? I have found a water-soluble product and am taking twice a day, which I believe is helping with pain, and it does not contain any of my known allergens. I'd love your input. Thanks! Karis

Thank you both for your responses!
Brenda, is yours a tincture? I can't have TCH either, but I'm wondering if I'd get more/different relief from a tincture rather than this water-soluble product I'm using. My mom uses one and swears by it, but it's the full spectrum, which I can't have.

I've been taking it for arthritis type symptoms and it works well. I get mine from here: https://www.purespectrumcbd.com/
I take the tincture and sometimes the isolate. It's a little more expensive, but the guy that owns this is from my hometown and I know the product I'm getting is pure. They've been running tests on them out there and it's a crap shoot. I won't buy from anywhere else.

CBD Oil
Hi Karis,
I believe the diagnosis of IBS/IBD (and my nutritionist/dietician says 'celiac') are included in the list of medical issues that actually qualify for medical marijuana scripts-- based on research, etc. on direct effects on gut and healing.
I've ONLY considered THC-free (non-full spectrum) CBD oil because I work in healthcare and will not risk testing + tests, etc.
I have not found a brand pure enough or strong enough that I feel comfortable using.... but continue to consider it based on the widespread positive effects of CBD, holistically, and also for GI issues.
I'd guess the right product would make a positive difference for anyone dealing with our issues, but then again we are all so different and sensitivities are wide-ranging and extremely delicate in early healing stages.
Welcome to the forum and best to you!
