Lots of reasons why, not really germane.
My experience, after a lot of homework and discussions with friends of mine who were using CBO's, has been fantastic. I have been able in the past eight months to get a walk/jog/elliptical in nearly everyday, started old guy pillow glove boxing training again and have lost the 30lbs I gained when the hip pain became too much.
I never took pain killers beyond the occasional Advil at night to sleep. The CBO is all I now use. BTW, CBD is not supposed to contain THC. I bought a small amount at CVS for goodness sake.
If it is the placebo effect I am onboard the Placebo Express.

I honestly hope CBD oil is the magic bullet of pain management. Since from what I hear, there is no "high" or mind altering effect, it should not impair driving or cognitive abilities.
It will likely be 20 years before a scientific double blind test is done and the results are published, and it will be as definitive at the studies on alcohol consumption. One study says alcohol is deadly and the next says it is a life saver. We all know that alcohol used just a little too much is not a good thing for drivers.
