Top Lies About Hemp Still Being Told in 2020

Everywhere you look, you can find all sorts of different CBD products. Whether it’s at your local health and wellness store or corner smoke shop, CBD is being advertised for all sorts of things. While the non-psychoactive compound may have some benefits, we simply do not have the research to support them yet. 

With how popular CBD and CBD products are in 2020, it is important to set straight some misconceptions--and some blatant lies--that are being told about the cannabinoid.

 

“It’s a cure!”

This is one of the most common and dangerous misconceptions about CBD out there. Because some studies have pointed towards the compound’s potential for certain things, companies have taken this information and have run with it. With many companies claiming that their CBD oils help with certain things, consumers are turning to CBD for the wrong reasons. Simply put, pure CBD cannot cure anything. There is little-to-no medical evidence surrounding the use of cannabidiol as a cure for ailments and illness. CBD cannot and should not ever be your sole form of treatment for any condition. 

“It is great for everybody!”

Even if CBD has completely changed your life, that doesn’t mean it will do the same for everybody else. Every person’s body is unique and different, meaning it will react differently to CBD. While some people require stronger doses of something than other people--same goes for CBD! 

Some people may place a few drops of CBD under their tongue and feel absolutely nothing at all. This doesn’t mean that something is wrong with you; rather, it just means that you may not have the highest quality CBD edible or are not using the right CBD dosage. Whether it is your metabolism or your genetics, there are various reasons why cannabidiol may not work for you the first time you try it. Just remember: you’re not the only one. Make sure to look for CBD lab reports to verify the quality of the CBD product.

“It’s totally safe--there aren’t negative effects at all.”

 

Though CBD is relatively safe--you definitely cannot overdose with it--this doesn’t mean there aren’t any negative effects, let alone drug interactions.

Thankfully, there have been zero deaths associated with the all-natural compound, and most don’t find many issues in enjoying it. However, CBD may interact with your prescription medications. Therefore, proper dosage is key when it comes to cannabidiol, and when you have more CBD than your body likes, you may experience discomfort in a few different forms. While these effects aren’t life-threatening, it is starkly a lie to say that adverse effects are not possible when consuming CBD.

Final Thoughts

In general, we need to know way more about cannabidiol before continuing to make such overarching generalizations. 

It is crucial to address that it isn’t the end-all cure that some are beginning to claim, as these falsities can lead to misinformation and uncomfortable experiences. So, before consuming CBD, be sure you conduct your own research beforehand to understand how it may affect you.
