CBDs.news covers the latest science and policy on cannabis, CBDs and plant medicines

July 16, 2018 -

But not everything you read about cannabis is correct -- especially if its coming from the pharmaceutical industry. Like other plant medicines, Big Pharma is out to crush its competition by promoting their synthetic versions over the real thing. Many people are finding success in treating conditions like cancer, chronic pain or seizure disorders with cannabis or whole plant CBD extract -- but their stories of health and healing with whole plant medicine are often disregarded by ...

The chemistry behind cannabinoids explains how CBDs are saving lives

March 06, 2017 -

The breakthrough came with the discovery of the body's endocannabinoid system, a biological system based around signaling molecules highly similar to many of the phytocannabinoid (plant-based cannabinoid) compounds found in marijuana (cannabis). Cannabinoid receptors are found on nearly every cell in the body, enabling the endocannabinoid system to play a key role in regulating everything from sleep and metabolism, to appetite and immune function.

BREAKING: Health food stores raided for CBDs, police ridiculously claim they’re narcotics

May 16, 2017 -

According to a spokesperson from Terry's, they demanded that the owners remove the CBD oil products from their stores' shelves, but did not confiscate the items -- and in fact, the narcotics officers actually purchased some of the oil for testing. The shop owners were reportedly told to stop selling CBD products until the police were able to wrap up their investigation.  Officers will be testing their hemp-derived CBD oil for the presence of two key cannabinoids, THC and CBD.

According to senior author Dr. Robert Dellavalle, Associate Professor of Dermatology at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, the compound's most promising effect is addressing severe itch. The senior author cited one study where eight out of 21 patients who used a cannabinoid cream twice daily for three weeks were able to completely cure severe itching or pruritus. According to the study, cannabinoids helped relieve dry skin, which triggers itch in patients.

Cannabidiol may soon be used in the emergency room to fight effects of stroke and cardiac emergencies

February 21, 2017 -

Chinese researchers from the Fudan University in Shanghai have found a way to protect against this oxidative damage and prevent the neurons from dying off. For the first time, researchers have shown that cannabidiol (CBDs) can protect against brain ischemia/reperfusion injury. Cannabidiol is one of the many cannabinoids found in the controversial cannabis sativa plant. An extract of cannabis contains at least 40 percent cannabidiol. This active ingredient may soon ...

Young boy replaces 20 different epilepsy pills with cannabis oil

February 28, 2017 -

His parents could only think of one thing: to consult doctors and specialists. Instead of investigating the cause, the doctors, with their sincere, good intentions, tried to find ways to suppress the baby's symptoms with their prescribing power. Thus began a long, dark and winding road of shoving new pills down little Jayden David's throat.

But even doctors' good intentions could not overpower the ruthless, failed pharmaceutical science and philosophy they were dishing ...

Cannabis oil helps autistic boy finally speak after only 2 days of use

October 20, 2016 -

Unfortunately for them, the facts don't support their ridiculous claims. In fact, they completely disregard them.

Consider Kalel Santiago -- a three-year-old boy in Puerto Rico suffering from severe autism. After years of not speaking, Kalel was given CBD oil, and after just two days of use, began talking to his parents. The Free Thought Project reports, "Kalel’s parents knew very little about autism at the time, and sought out a way to ensure that their child would ...

FDA bans natural substance manufactured by the body itself

June 12, 2017 -

The FDA recently went after picamilon, a natural combination of Vitamin B3 and a substance made in the body that crosses the blood-brain barrier known as GABA. This natural substance has been so useful as a neuroprotector in boosting brain functioning that Eli Lilly decided to use it as the basis for an Alzheimer’s drug called Solanezumab. At that point, longstanding natural supplements that contain picamilon became a threat to the $7.6 billion the drug company was expected to ...

Contraindication: Taking CBD can multiply the negative effects of acetaminophen-induced liver damage

February 12, 2020 -

CBDs and acetaminophen don't mix

Now a new study published in the journal Molecules finds that acetaminophen-induced liver damage can be made worse when combined with a common supplement that is also used to manage pain. Acetaminophen-induced liver damage is made worse when CBD (cannabidiol) and acetaminophen molecules interact. One of the most important active ingredients of cannabis may exacerbate liver damage in the presence of acetaminophen.

The study, led ...

CBD Bombshell: Cannabis approved by the FDA for treatment of brain and spinal cord glioma cancer tumors

U.S. Government recognizes scientific proof CBD heals cancer – the tide is finally turning for natural cures in the USA

The same tired argument always ensues in America when a natural remedy cures too many humans of disease and disorder – the allopathic clowns claim there's no scientific proof (because pharma doesn't like the competition). Now the scientific evidence is strong for the real therapeutic potential of CBD oils to treat some of the most dangerous and lethal forms ...

Supplement alert: Beware of CBD gummies made with GMO corn syrup and toxic artificial colors

January 16, 2019 -

These toxic ingredients are being blended into gummy shapes to create "CBD gummies" that are being sold as colorful supplements by incredibly stupid retailers who obviously have no interest in natural health. Even offering CBD gummies with artificial colors is an admission of nutritional illiteracy and an insult to consumers.

Notably, none of these CBD gummies we've seen so far have any lab testing to confirm their CBD content. We also know that fraud is rampant across ...

Leonardo DiCaprio’s war on carbon is actually a war against all plants, rainforests and ecosystems on the entire planet, warns new video

May 16, 2017 -

We have been told that CO2 is the villain wreaking havoc on all life on earth. Some climate alarmists such as Al Gore and Leonardo DiCaprio even started a war on CO2 to make the world a better, greener place. Though we have been told that the science is clear and the climate debate is over, scientific proof of this hypothesis in non-existent.

To the contrary, a world without CO2 is a goner. CO2 is partially made from carbon. Without carbon, life doesn’t exist. Our body, ...

Beautiful skin, naturally: A unique herbal mixture shows promise in treating inflammatory skin disorders

May 10, 2019 -

In their study, the researchers used parts of all five plants to make an herbal mixture they called C2RLP. They used murine, rat, and human cells to evaluate its effects in vitro and purchased five-week old mice for their in vivo studies because they found using mouse models more convenient and cost-effective.

The in vitro study involved measuring the nitric oxide (NO) and PGE2 (prostaglandin E2) production of cells before and after treatment with C2RLP. They used a spectrophotometer ...

Instead of paying farmers subsidies to grow unprofitable crops, wouldn’t it make more sense to legalize hemp agriculture and unleash billions in profit potential?

August 02, 2018 -

Keeping American farmers in business is a top priority, no doubt. But many are wondering why this administration hasn't tried to shift focus onto a more profitable plant for farmers: hemp. It was recently revealed that the Senate's 2018 Farm Bill included legislation which would legalize the cultivation of hemp here in the U.S. If passed, the bill would allow for hemp to be sold as an agricultural commodity and remove it from the list of federally controlled substances.

Further, Senate ...

Legality means overregulation in California: The state is placing even MORE limits on CBD products such as edibles

December 19, 2017 -

The new limits will also be applied to medical marijuana products, according to a report on the new regulations. To be more specific, their potency will have to be limited to just 100mg. This means that stronger products that exceed the 100mg limit will need to be taken off the market. Medical marijuana dispensaries have until July 1, 2018 to do so.

The new rules also dictate that all cannabis edibles that can be bought from adult-use dispensaries need to be divided ...

Holistic health practitioner Inesa Ponomariovaite tells Kerri Rivera: People need to be educated about hemp – Brighteon.TV

April 14, 2022 -

"I think we need to start with the bases first, especially if you're trying to educate the majority of the people that have been stereotyped to criminalize this plant. Since the industry is not regulated, there's a lot of bad things happening in the market and I'm not gonna lie. That's the reason why Nesa's Hemp was born because of seeing all these devastating things, what business owners do to take advantage of this," said Ponomariovaite, founder and CEO of Nesa's Hemp.

Health Ranger to announce lab verification and product certification service for CBD oils and non-THC hemp extracts

November 02, 2017 -

One of the issues we're seeing today in the hemp extract industry is very high saturation of pesticides and fungicides in hemp-related products. That problem stems from the almost unbelievable lack of regulation of hemp agricultural methods in states where hemp production has been legalized. Toxic solvents are also frequently used in many hemp extracts -- such as hexane, methanol, IPA, etc. -- leaving potentially dangerous chemical residues in final products (some of which ...
