HEMP 101

If you missed our event in June, here's another chance to learn everything you need to know about Hemp. Dave has a new presentation you're going to love. Admittance is free. Just as your body has a digestive system, a nervous system, and a circulatory system, it also has an endocannabinoid system. The discovery of the endocannabinoid system is still relatively new, and there is much yet to discover as to the role it plays in health and wellness. Hemp oil is extracted from the hemp plant, a member of the cannabis genus, but without the psychoactive substance THC that produces a "high." Hemp oil is also known as cannabidiol, or CBD for short. Research is finding that CBD may be effective in treating conditions such as chronic pain, PTSD, and anxiety. Cannabidiol may also have benefits as a neuroprotectant for persons with such conditions as autism and Parkinson's. Should you be taking hemp oil? If so, how much? How can you be sure you are getting a quality product? Is vaping safe? What do we already know about the endocannabinoid system, and what new breakthroughs are on the horizon?
