The Government Is About to Destroy Your Access to Natural CBD – Here’s What You Need to Know
06/24/2026 // Mike Adams // Views

A Betrayal Wrapped in a Law

A new federal law limits THC to 0.4 mg per supplement unit (I'll explain more below), a rule that effectively criminalizes the cultivation of natural hemp with any therapeutic benefit. This was not a transparent public health measure -- it was sneaked in during a government shutdown, buried in an omnibus bill while Americans were distracted by political chaos. The law benefits pharmaceutical giants and beverage conglomerates at the expense of your right to access affordable, natural medicine.

Make no mistake: this is a deliberate attack on natural medicine. Not because it limits access to THC, but because it effectively criminalizes natural full-spectrum sources of CBD and CBDa (which naturally contain very small amounts of THC alongside the cannabinoids).

We must act now before this law strips away our access to hemp-derived wellness products that have helped millions manage chronic pain, anxiety, certain seizures and inflammation without dangerous side effects. The government, working hand-in-hand with corporate lobbyists, is engineering this ban on natural CBD to protect the monopoly profits of synthetic drugmakers.

As I reported in a recent interview with the Texas Hemp Business Council, “The fight transcends politics; it is a fundamental struggle over personal liberty and the freedom to choose holistic, nature-based healing over a corporate-controlled system.” [1] This law, in other words, is nothing less than a betrayal of the American people.

Why the Endocannabinoid System Is Non-Negotiable

Your body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS) regulates or influences nearly every function of your body -- mood, immunity, pain perception, sleep, and even memory. Without full-spectrum cannabinoids, the ECS cannot function optimally. The science is clear: full-spectrum CBD (with a trace of THC) is extremely helpful to activate CB1 receptors and deliver the so-called "entourage effect," where all the plant compounds work together synergistically to achieve therapeutic benefits.

As Leonard Leinow and Juliana Birnbaum explain in their book "CBD," “CBD, CBDA, THCA, CBN, and CBG all block prostate cancer cells from rapid growth, inhibiting tumor size and spread.” [2] Yet this law removes that trace THC, neutering the therapeutic power of the plant. The government is essentially rendering the entire hemp plant useless for medicine. By restricting THC to 0.4 mg per unit, they are dismantling the very mechanism that allows the entourage effect to work.

This is not accidental -- it is a calculated move to make natural CBD ineffective, pushing patients toward expensive, patented pharmaceuticals that benefit the pharmaceutical industrial complex while depriving humanity of Mother Nature's natural medicine.

The Real Puppeteers: Pharma, Beverage, and a Rigged System

Confusingly, this law pushes natural extracts out of the market while allowing synthetic THC in beverages. Alcohol and beverage companies lobbied hard to create a monopoly on psychoactive products, knowing that natural hemp extracts could reduce demand for their addictive and toxic products. The result is a law that protects corporate profits while destroying access to nature’s medicine.

This is a fatal mistake for public health. As I discussed in my interview with Inessa of Nesa’s Hemp, “Researchers are only now beginning to fully document the advantages of CBDa, but those in power seem intent on using this crisis for social engineering and control purposes.” [3] The pharmaceutical industry has consistently suppressed research into cannabis. As NaturalNews.com reported, “Medical marijuana and cannabis research have been suppressed throughout most of the 20th century… marking the first casualty in a war against natural medicine waged by the pharmaceutical industry.” [4] Meanwhile, the Alliance for Natural Health noted that “the evidence of CBD’s myriad health benefits continues to pile up, and it increasingly looks like the FDA is preparing to issue a ban on CBD supplements to protect drug industry profits.” [5]

The system is rigged from the top down, and the people who suffer are the ones who can least afford to lose their medicine.

What You Must Do Before November

The law is vague on what constitutes a “unit,” but enforcement will make it nearly impossible to keep natural products available to consumers. You may want to seek out high-quality, full-spectrum CBDA hemp extracts and join the effort to stop the outlawing of these natural supplements. Companies like Nesa’s Hemp (NesasHemp.com) offer the real thing with verified lab tests, ensuring you get the full entourage effect without synthetic additives. As Inessa explained in our interview, “Every production lot we run is sent for lab testing before being shipped to customers.” [3] You need products tested for heavy metals, glyphosate, and microbial contamination -- not the cheap, diluted extracts sold at gas stations.

This is a spiritual and physical battle. We need to prioritize our health and support ethical producers who refuse to bow to the pharmaceutical monopoly. Cynthia Cabrera, founder of the Texas Hemp Business Council, warned that if the lieutenant governor succeeded in banning the industry, “it would have had far-reaching consequences, particularly for hemp seeds -- the most fundamental component of the industry.” [6] Without seeds, there can be no hemp. Without hemp, there is no natural CBD. Act now, before the law takes full effect and the shelves are empty.

Conclusion: Wake Up and Defend Your Health

The establishment wants us sick and dependent. Natural hemp threatens their profits and their depopulation agenda. By removing access to full-spectrum CBD, they are removing a tool that helps many people heal from chronic conditions without toxic drugs. This effort to outlaw full-spectrum hemp extracts is not about safety -- it is about control.

I urge you to stand up for your right to access natural medicine. Clean up your diet, support natural medicine, and resist this tyranny. Stock up on lab-tested hemp extracts (if you want to get them before the ban), learn about the endocannabinoid system, and demand that your lawmakers repeal this destructive law. Together, we can fight back by staying informed, stocking up, and refusing to let the government dictate what natural medicine you can access. Your health is your birthright, and no corporate lobbyist should be allowed to take it away.

There, he was awarded a Certificate of Excellence for achieving extremely high accuracy in the analysis of toxic elements in unknown water samples using ICP-MS instrumentation.

In his laboratory research, Adams has made numerous food safety breakthroughs such as revealing rice protein products imported from Asia to be contaminated with toxic heavy metals like lead, cadmium and tungsten. Adams was the first food science researcher to document high levels of tungsten in superfoods. He also discovered over 11 ppm lead in imported mangosteen powder, and led an industry-wide voluntary agreement to limit heavy metals in rice protein products.

Adams has also helped defend the rights of home gardeners and protect the medical freedom rights of parents. Adams is widely recognized to have made a remarkable global impact on issues like GMOs, vaccines, nutrition therapies, human consciousness.
