I have been looking back this thread but can't see anyone asking anything about CBD oil.

What are people thoughts on this product?

Personally I tried one which is being sold at a very well know supplement store and found it didn't make any difference.

After doing a bit of research it seems the CBD oil from this store is not pure enough or something along these lines but the pure is very expensive.

Is anyone actually taking it and finding any sort of benefit?

My wife started recently, and it's worked wonders for anxiety. It was the Jacob Hooy stuff for H&B, which I presume is what you've referred to above- I guess it won't work for everyone, but in this instance, it's worked fantastically.

H&B sell an ok version, however some health food shops sell a much stronger %age vision which is more effective.
Some E-cig vape shops also sell a tapeable version, I've not tried it, but it is one of their best sellers.

That is great for your wife to get good results. I see they have a new 5% strength instead of the original 2.75%.

Mrs P has been using CBD oil and paste for about a year.

She found that the high street sellers tend to not work as well as some of the internet’s bigger sellers.

She swears by cbdbrothers.com

They do free samples so you can work out what’s best for you. Hers is for sciatica and she combines green paste with white oil.

It’s not cheap but she says you get what you pay for. Their customer service is great as well.

Will have to have another look.

So many appearing that it is hard to know which one is the best to go for.

£14.99 to hundreds of pounds is a huge difference.

I see eBay have many sellers now but it seems risky to chance them when you have no guarantee of quality.

Hi mate.

Thank you for that information. I have tried the H&B and also Charlotte's Web but both didn't help much.

Will have a look at cbd brothers as a free sample would be great to try. When it doesn't help you do start to wonder if it's worth the money.

Thank you for taking the time to post biggrin

Can recommend Dutch natural healing, from what I gather they’re one of the best.

Thank mate.

Many offer free trails which was mentioned above but each one from different companies are always sold out.

I will look up your suggestion.

The more I read the more it seems to be you need to pay at least £100 to get the pure full spectrum CBD Oil.

Obviously if you use it daily you might need one bottle a Month which is getting expensive.

Again thanks smile

The white oil is the 3rd most expensive from cbdbrothers, I think it’s about £45 for 10ml. That’ll last mrs p for a month. The green paste is about £15 for a 5ml syringe. It lasts about a month as well.

She got some red oil - the next most concentrated and she found it too strong. I guess different ailments need different strengths.

Great that 10 ml lasts a Month. That's pretty good going.

I think it's the ailments and how strong you need it is the difficult part. But it would just be a case of trial and error.

It's refreshing to hear someone who is not trying to sell you something giving an honest review.

Clearly it is help Mrs P which is great smile

I use the extra strength CBD capsules from health span. I take one a day which is a dose of 15mg.
Gives me better pain relief than from codeine and the other prescription painkillers I have tried.

That is impressive. Tablets are a nightmare for the body.

Have you had any side effects?

The H&B did nothing for me and the Charlotte's Web also didn't do much but that was the cheapest one at £40

Will check out the capsules.

Again great to hear your getting real help from taking CBD.

Not sure what you mean by tablets being a nightmare for the body.
The ones I use are just capsules containing the CBD oil in liquid form.

Sorry I was meaning painkillers are a nightmare not the CBD capsules.

My aunt was on heavy painkillers and then long term antibiotics which in the end made her nearly die with acute liver failure.

Very lucky she was able to be given a transplant.

This is one of the main reasons I am looking at trying something more natural than popping tablets daily.

Sorry to confuse smile

Mmmm, might give this CBD oil a try - I have 4 bulging discs (lumbar). Pain at the moment is confined to lower back and buttocks - some days it's there and other days it's gone - seems to depend on what activity I do to aggravate it. Do you just rub it all over your back and crack like you would suncream? I can see it costing a fortune!

The oil has a pipette and a drop goes under your tongue. The paste gets rubbed on your gums.

I had liver failure last year from antibiotics on top of prescription painkillers. Not a pleasant time.
You are right about the codeine etc. I am glad I am off them now, couldn’t be without the CBD oil though.

WOW mate. You have been having a rough time.

Have you had to have surgery?

It's amazing how you are being able to control the pain with CBD oil.

Must make such a difference to your life.
