This year VA legalized CBD and I’ve recently had the opportunity to try many forms (tinctures, sublingual, lotions, edibles, etc.) in what I KNOW are legit because I bought them at CVS, Wegmans, etc. haha
Anyway, what I found really surprising was how effective the topical preparations are, in comparison with how underwhelming the oral forms are, as far as my pain goes (a combination of neuropathic and traditional injury). I would encourage anyone with chronic pain and access to CBD supplements (particularly if you can just pick them up at the grocery store) to try out as many forms as possible, from
what I understand, everyone responds differently, and in my case I never would have guessed that a topical balm would prove superior to orally ingested or even sublingual supplements.
*mileage may vary, in my case the topical balm maybe takes a solid 1.0 off the 1-10 pain scale, when applied to my lower back, for several hours per application, but every bit helps, right?*
