From time to time a new product comes to the consumer’s attention. CBD is a product that claims to help relieve us of some our common physical ailments and mental stresses and anxieties. There is a lot of information and misinformation about CBD and it can be hard to tell fact from fiction. Many folks are left questioning, “Does it actually work?”

I’m a CBD user, but I realize it should never be enough to take one person’s word as to how effective a product can be. That being said, I recently I had the opportunity to sit down with husband and wife CBD users Ray and Lori and ask them some questions about their experiences with cannabidiol.

-Start of Interview-

Me: What occurred in your life to make you want try CBD?

Lori: I had insomnia and herniation in my low back so I had a lot of pain.

Ray: Knee and foot pain as well as intense family stress.

Me: Interesting, I won’t ask you to go into detail. I’m sure we can all understand the pressure of dealing with family issues and physical pain, but I would like to follow up with this question: Who first introduced you to using CBD?

Ray and Lori: Dr. Sanjay Gupta’s special on medical marijuana and the benefits of CBD.

Me: What type of CBD products have you tried?

Lori: The Elite Hemp products: sour gummies, cookies and lidocaine cream. I also tried the concentrated oral liquid and chocolate.

Ray: I’ve tried the CBD cream with lidocaine, the concentrated oil and the 200mg meringue,  chocolate, sprinkles and amaretto cookies.

Me: Has there been a significant change in your physical and mental health since you started using CBD?

Ray: Yes, the lidocaine cream was very effective at helping back and joint pain. The cookies did help with my overall pain and stress.

Lori: I swear by the lidocaine cream and gummy bears. They have helped my pain, relaxation, and sleep.

Me: How often do you use CBD?

Lori: A couple times a week.

Ray: As needed. Usually 1 or two times a week.

Me: Would you, or have you, recommended CBD to others?

Lori: I’ve recommended CBD products (especially the CBD with lidocaine) to family, friends, coworkers and associates.  Pretty much anyone dealing with pain. So, I guess yes!

Ray: I’ve recommended CBD products to many friends and family.

Me: Thank you both so much for your time, and for allowing me to ask you some questions about your CBD experience. I hope whomever reads this will understand the changes it can make in a person’s life.
