CBD: The Multipurpose Healer
CBD: The Multipurpose Healer
CBD better known in the scientific world as (Cannabidiol) is a naturally occurring compound found in the resinous flower of the cannabis plant, better known in our world as Marijuana, pot, weed, reefer, grass, ganja, well you get the picture. There are many articles about this plant online and all of them are good to read and very detailed, but if you really want to get the in-depth of the plant, just go online and type CBD or Hemp. I’m only going to keep this brief with some knowledge to perk your interest.
CBD doesn’t get you high because this part of the plant is the healing side of it and NOT the THC. I’ll explain more of this below. The THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) is the part that’s extracted out of the plant because if it wasn’t, you’ll still be getting high from it and that would defeat the purpose, well for at least for some. Besides, I don’t think you would want your kids high all the time either.
Brief History
Cannabidiol is a phytocannabinoid that was discovered in 1940. It is one of some 113 identified cannabinoids in cannabis plants, accounting for up to 40% of the plant’s extract. As of 2018, preliminary clinical research on cannabidiol included studies of anxiety, cognition, movement disorders, and chronic pain. It is now confirmed that it can relief these systems as well as many others like depression and help to treat certain types of cancer. It’s like the miracle cure that we all have been looking for.
There are hundreds of topics on this plant healer like I mentioned and the things it can do and provide and it’s becoming more and more proven of its results. So why have we outlawed it for over 70 years. I guess you can say the technology on knowing how to extract the compounds weren’t around until now or the fact that it had been outlawed and no one ever thought to try and see if this plant really could provide any healing properties. Maybe they were just afraid of getting arrested.
The legalization of Marijuana in recent years in those states may have taken a big part in this discovery. At least we all know it won’t kill brain cells or destroy your liver or even start fights at your local Pub, but that stuff is legal to consume. Let’s take a deeper look into this miracle drug if that’s what you want to call it.
The Biblical side
When I first got started in CBD, I ask the locals on what they thought about this. A course, most of them haven’t heard of the product at that time and those who did were skeptical of what it could do. Now I don’t usually go into the religious side of things, but I had someone tell me that it was mentioned in the Bible. Thinking real hard about what they were saying and wondering what they were referring to and where they were going with it, so I continued to listen. They went on to tell me that all plants and air breathing animals where put here on earth for us to survive on and to 
find healing within some of these plants and animals. So what did I do, yep, went on line like any other computer nerd to see what they were talking about. Now I will admit I’m not one to read the Bible, but I was simple amazed on what I discovered and guess what, they were right. In fact, what I read was Christians believed that the Bible supports using the drug or, at the least, marijuana is no more sinful than the use of other drugs that Christians imbibe, such as tobacco, coffee, and alcohol.
I also found and read the different scriptures about this plant and many other plants described within the scriptures. I was over whelmed with the information on what I was reading and never realized these things would have been printed in the big book. I think I’ll leave it up to you on that part of the research as well and what you think and believe in.
How does it work?
CBD (Cannabidiol) is a compound found in the Cannabis plant mentioned above. It can be used in several different ways including vaping, tinctures, capsules, and edibles. It’s also been developed for usage in coffee and creamer products as well. Unlike its close relative, THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD is completely non-psychoactive. This allows us to benefit from the many health properties of the Cannabis plant without the negative side effects of 
“yep I said it before – getting high.”
Because of this, CBD became a very popular option for those seeking a natural alternative to treat conditions such as chronic pain, multiple sclerosis, PTSD, epilepsy and other mental disorders.
At first, many were skeptical, thinking that a natural compound, let alone a Cannabis-compound, could effectively treat such a wide range of conditions. But as medical researchers learned more, and the stories from tens of thousands of people began to stack up, the truth was undeniable. CBD works.
But how exactly does it work?
For starters, CBD inherits many of the medicinal properties of Cannabis such as being anti-inflammatory and anti-anxiolytic. This allows it to provide natural stress, anxiety and pain relief like I mentioned before.
But this alone isn’t what allows CBD to benefit so many conditions.
What allows it to effectively treat so many conditions, and maintain health and wellness in the body, is how the cannabinoids found in CBD interact with receptors throughout our body. One of the main ways they impact us is by mimicking and augmenting the effects of the compounds in our bodies called “endogenous cannabinoids” – so named because of their similarity to the compounds found in the cannabis plant. These “endocannabinoids” are part of a regulatory system called the “endocannabinoid system”.
The discovery of the endocannabinoid system has significantly advanced our understanding of health and disease. It has major implications for nearly every area of medical science and helps to explain how and why CBD and THC are such versatile compounds – and why cannabis is such a widely consumed mood-altering plant, despite its illegal status.

Is CBD Legal to Use?
So this is obviously a very important question for new users, but there isn’t exactly a one-size-fits-all answer. Every country has its own laws governing Cannabis and its compounds. In America, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has deemed CBD as federally illegal; while, at the state level, each state has its own laws on the matter, which is in one state CBD may be completely legal, while being illegal in another. Some US States even have different laws if the CBD is derived from hemp oil or medical marijuana.
The ongoing debate regarding the use of marijuana has heated up considerably in recent years. This has caused individual states to decriminalize the use of marijuana. There are many political, medical, and scientific responses to this change in the acceptance of pot, but the evidence is still strongly against such usage. With that being said, there isn’t a general answer to this question completely “Is it Legal to Use CBD?”, but I can tell you that it is now legal in about 30 different states and in time, I mean a short time all states will have legalized it. The march to legalize CBD is extremely strong due to the fact of its healing properties.
Now, thankfully, the general opinion is starting to shift in a more positive direction, but there has still been a lasting impact on society, including our governing laws. Hemp-extracted CBD products are deemed legal by the federal government as long as they are produced using industrial hemp. Pretty Confusing.
Does CBD show up in Drug Test?
I’m really not saying if it does or if it doesn’t, so I’ve included some articles for you to go check out. One of the articles is written by Forbes. Here’s the link to it: FORBES
There are many articles and blogs on this subject so I want to give you one more to look up. This is by Leafy: Click Here
Most of the articles I read really don’t make it clear on how the test are totally ran, but at least you’ll know if you are taking any type of CBD and have to apply for a job that does do a drug test. This way you’ll have a more clear understanding.
Can you sale CBD?
The answer to that is “YES” with a number of store fronts opening up and online businesses, you can sell it. For those who are affiliate marketers, newbie’s, or those looking for a new niche? This is the place to start.
By becoming an online CBD oil distributor, you can cater to those who prefer to purchase CBD oil from the comfort of their own home. If CBD oil is not accepted near your place of residence or if you do not think CBD oil will sell well in your area, you still have access to other customers nationwide who are seeking CBD products. I’m sure in time CBD will be like buying Alcohol in your local drug store. They’re already predicting this will be a multibillion dollar industry in just a few more years. Forbes reported that CBD products are expected to be a $2.2 billion industry by 2020. Even now it’s starting to explode. So if you’re interested in purchasing the product for yourself and or would like to buy and sell it, please read on.
One of the online products I Prefer is CTFO (Changing the Future Outcome). They have a number of products and a great back office to work from. It’s free to sign up and to get started. Watch the video I provided.
Conclusion
In my opinion, CBD will be the next snake oil (not the old western type) and yes it may even have some kind of healing properties like the experts are printing. I’m not saying to go right out and buy some unless you want to try it and I’m not saying it will work for you, but most studies and testimonials are applying it helps with your day to day routine among other things. For the online affiliates that may want to join a company and make a little income or even purchase some of the products and try for yourself watch the video. But most of all, be an expert in the field of CBD if you make it your niche. All I can say research it and make your own conclusion, I did
