I'm not sure what snake oil was meant for,

It was meant for everything which seemingly applies to CBD oil. Just in this thread alone, it is beneficial for a wide range of ailments.

I got scammed(my fault, really) into buying some CBD oil about 6 months ago. It was one of those free bottles, but you pay like $5.99 for shipping so they need your credit card. Obviously, it was an automatic sign up deal if you don’t proactively cancel. And it was like $70/month. Well, I fricked around and didn’t cancel it for a month or so, but I didn’t open it, so thought I’d be good. Then when I finally started to really cancel it, they had the wrong 800 number on the package. Took me way longer than it should have to finally get the correct number. Called and cancelled and said I had 4 empty packages I’d like to send back to get my money back. They said no. I talked to 2 different supervisors before telling them to go frick themselves (knowing it was really my dumbass fault for not doing my due-diligence).

Anyway, the point of that was that when I finally opened it, I see it’s only 5 fricking mg per serving. 150 in the entire bottle. I was listening to Ben Greenfield or Peter Attia talking about taking like 100-150 mg at night before bed, I think. So, what’s the appropriate dosage? I want to take some orally for overall recovery, anxiety, sleep, whatever else it may aid. I also want to rub some on aching body parts. What’s the best brand and correct dosage?

anyone take garlic? I saw someone put a garlic clove in their ear like cotton and it helped with an ear ache.

Perfect example. So I went to the following websites that people listed here: CbdMD, CBD distillery, and Carolina Hemp. No where on either of those sites do they tell you what it does. No where. They are intentionally avoiding claims. Costs and products seem to vary quite a bit.

Now, I have shin splints and another more serious pain concern. I’d love to try some CBD and see if it works. How am I supposed to find out what to do based off this information? Any advice appreciated.

I wouldn't either with fear of getting sued from people like you. Geez, lighten up.

These are user claims and not manufacturer claims. So, as someone who would potentially consume these products, how am I to decide which one to get, in what form, in what dosage, etc, etc, etc when the manufacturers will not publish any guidelines or recommendations?

the FDA won't let them

For those that have taken / are taking this. Does the relief of anxiety and help sleeping come with any noticeable symptoms. For example to you feel drowsy , does it affect your daily work performance , etc?

I've been thinking of taking it to help with sleep and muscle soreness, but, don't know any results from actual people taking CBD oil.

My workouts have gotten a lot better, cause the inflammation is damn near gone and better quality sleep.

I buy mine from a cbd store in town.... heard too many horror stories about buying online..
Sunmed broad spectrum is what I use.
Just bought my second bottle today, I was skeptical till the second day, by the third and fourth day I was convinced.
Haven’t taken an ibuprofen or Aleve since I started.
