437: CBD for Pain & Sleep with Mary Clifton

CBD for Pain & Sleep with Mary Clifton   Marijuana is quickly becoming legal or at least decriminalized in most states. Billions of dollars of previously criminal revenue is suddenly on-the-books and taxable, and hundreds of products are flooding the market including everything from skincare to nutritional supplements. But what does it all mean for you?  CBD (cannabidiol) is just one of dozens of cannabinoids in marijuana, and it’s of particular interest for pain, anxiety, and sleep.

On this week’s podcast, you’ll meet a medical doctor whose work focused around the safe and effective medicinal use of this once-illicit plant. .  Listen & Learn:  How to choose an effective dose  How much it will cost   Hemp-derived vs. cannabis derived CBD   Will I get stoned  When to add THC (psychoactive) to a CBD dose Links & Resources Mary’s site  ABOUT OUR GUEST Mary Clifton, M.D. is a board-certified, licensed, internal medicine doctor.
