Actually I use the real stuff, but many of the types also have CBD in them. I have not noticed any analgesic properties to it myself. (don't worry about me tallking stuff that ight be illegal, alohol is illegal in some countries and we talk about that, plus I am not afraid of them anyway, and it is legal here, on this side of the property line, and it is probsbly legal for a good portion of the members here, as the world seems to be waking up that WE WANT THIS)
One thing to watch when selecting a brand and type is to see if it has vitamin E in it. Some brainiac figured it wouldbe a good idea to put that in and didn't know that after the smoking process, or evaporation whatever, it becomes destructive to the lungs. I am pretty sure of my stuff, many give a % and when it is like 94% there ain't much room for anything else.
Some years ago there was a study and it found that some people had a certain type of receptor set in their brain that is matched to THC. The research didn't go too far (like WHY ?) but I think it would go far to explain why some addictives choose one drug or another. By addictives I mean the people with thaat mindset, that type will find SOMETHING. Foof whatever. Like in the tune by The Godz - Gotta Keep a Running'", "there's money junkies, dope junkies, sex junkies". (one I forgot) Could food.
BUT, if there are brain receptors matched to the CBD that would make it very desirable for the user. Maybe like copping a rush. (ask old hippies).
What I have noticed with pot and beer is pain is still there, just at a certain point you don't care. This is good because I believe pain is the body signaling the brain for help and it should not be silenced. This has to be better than those chemicals that kill more people than illegal drugs every year - legal drugs. (over the years I have been amazed at how many people didn't know that)
The bottom line here though is that I have heard that CBD does not work on some people, a significant some people. I guess the only way to find out is to try it.
Anyone who wants to try, my vape pen was $27. Adjustable heat, and one heluva battery. It lasts weeks and I USE it. Charges with USB just like a phone, and not a big one. (yeh, those chargers are not equal, same plug and everything and my big phone won't charge right except from the black box one from the wall, it WILL in a pinch but it does not seem to last aslong witout tht big charger, I DO NOT use that one on the pen)
So I bet you can get one about $20 or maybe a hair less.
You only live once.
