I've been sampling CBD oil from a few different sources the past few months. I just received a bottle from Bluebird Botanicals (as the author did). Their website warns you before purchase about the taste, and after sampling three other products, I just ignored the warning. I received it yesterday and WOW it tastes AWFUL. It's really bad.
I recommend mixing it with honey! My favorite drink with it is CBD + honey + matcha green tea + ice.

Get a salve made with cannabis and other plants. Something like: http://www.papaandbarkley.com/product/releaf-balm/
Can you link to some medical evidence of the efficacy of that?

#73OK, this article is trying so hard to sound cool. > The oil was the brownish color of a stagnant pond, and tasted like old bong water with a hint of lemon. It sounds like they haven't actually tried bong water, unless the CBD tincture they had was actually incredibly poorly made. Bong water is... not something you just drop on your tongue. It's hard for me to illustrate but it's very disgusting, unpalatable. > After…

#74Anecdotally, as someone with moderate bipolar depression and severe anxiety, a 1:1 THC/CBD tincture has been a miracle cure for me. I’ve spent my whole life going through every SSRI and mood stabilizer in the book, and the side effects have always been worse than just going unmedicated. This is the only thing that has ever truly helped me. Cannabinoids seem to be highly synergistic, where THC can ease the depression…

What type would you like? Do you think doctors would recommend such products and patients would continue to buy such products if they didn't work/help?
Doctors and patients both benefit from the placebo effect - if it solves the problem, great, doctor and patient are happy and continue to do it.
I have health issues no one knows how to treat, and I have had doctors (qualified medical experts with decades of experience) recommend things there was little to no reliable evidence for currently, just in case they worked (didn't for me).
I (and lawmakers - CBD etc. are illegal where I am) want to know if things actually work.

You replied to someone complaining about medically ineffective doses with an evidenceless recommendation of another low-dose product.

The key here, though, is that formulation contains THC (and extracts from other plants) and is derived from marijuana cannabis plants, instead of just hemp-derived CBD.

How long have you been using this approach? (Curious to know if it remains effective over several years).

#78I have the start of arthritis in my hands. I just spent $50 on a topical salve with hemp-derived CBD oil after reading a lot of reviews about how effective it is. The next day I checked if there was any research on its efficacy. Due to the volume of pages touting the benefits of CBD, finding the actual research was difficult. Most of the search results were either vendors or medical mj boosters. The best I found was…

#80For those subject to random drug testing, can legal CBD use trigger a postive result for marijuana?
