The wide variety of CBD products now available in this country and around the world has happened for a reason. Medical studies have shown that taking CBD can relieve a host of serious health issues—from sleepless nights to high anxiety to chronic pain and the list goes on. The problem is that with so many companies jumping on the bandwagon of cashing in on CBD’s popularity, many of the CBD products out there may unfortunately be ineffective. Now, bestselling health author Dr. Earl Mindell has written a simple and concise guide to selecting the best CBD products that are available. By understanding what to look for when buying any CBD supplements, you can avoid being disappointed if the product doesn’t work. In addition, Dr. Mindell has included an A-to-Z guide to the many uses of CBD for various health conditions, from arthritis to cancer to depression to heart disease.
The book is divided into two sections. Part One provides a consumers’ guide to buying CBD. By knowing what to look for on the packing, as well as asking the right questions, you can quickly see if the product is up to pharmaceutical standards. It also details some of the most common product forms that CBD now comes in. Part Two looks at the many health disorders CBD helps to improve, overcome, and/or eliminate. Each disorder listed looks at the symptoms, the triggers and the conventional treatments. It then discusses how CBD works to improve the condition and what the recommended dosages to take.
Today, it’s common to hear people say “The CBD I am taking doesn’t seem to work.” Unfortunately, without knowing whether or not the CBD product they’ve purchased is powerful enough, the end result is anyone’s guess. With Dr. Earl Mindell's Guide to Healing with CBD in hand, you’ll learn quickly learn how to take the guesswork out of buying your next CBD product.
Earl Mindell, RPh, PhD, is a registered pharmacist, master herbalist, and college educator. He is also an award-winning author of over twenty best-selling books, including Earl Mindell's New Vitamin Bible, which has sold over 11 million copies worldwide. Dr. Mindell was inducted into the California Pharmacists Association’s Hall of Fame in 2007, and was awarded the President's Citation for Exemplary Service from Bastyr University in 2012. He is on the Board of Directors of the California College of Natural Medicine, and serves on the Dean's Professional Advisory Group, School of Pharmacy, Chapman University. In addition to being a highly sought-after lecturer, he has appeared on numerous TV shows such as Good Morning America and the Late Show with David Letterman. He and his wife reside in Beverly Hills, California.

Introduction
Imagine that researchers had found a naturally occurring substance that could effectively overcome dozens of health disorders without any serious side effects. Now imagine that the plant in which this substance was found had been banned in this country because, as a commercially grown crop, it threatened other competing “cash” crops. As new studies showed its many medical benefits, our laws continued to prevent farmers from planting an easy-to-grow crop that requires few, if any, pesticides or herbicides. If you think that sounds so crazy that it couldn’t be true, think again.For the last seventy years, the Federal government has prohibited farmers from commercially growing the hemp plant. In doing so, it has effectively prevented American companies from making available extracts with CBD—the very compound that science has found to be an amazing and versatile healer.
As it turns out, hemp is a relative of marijuana. Both are cannabis plants, as are many other plants. However, while marijuana is high in THC, the chemical compound that accounts for marijuana’s psychoactive effects, hemp contains too little of this chemical to get anyone high. On the other hand, while most available marijuana contains a relatively low level of the healing compound CBD, hemp is high in CBD—which has no psychoactive effects and is non-toxicating. Yet as you will discover in the chapters that follow, for decades, the hemp plant has been outlawed along with marijuana because the government has falsely classified it as a dangerous Schedule 1 drug. And while more and more states are legalizing the growth and sale of marijuana, hemp is still not permitted to be grown as a commercial crop.
