While the internet is still rife with weed entrepreneurs claiming that CBD extracts are legal in all 50 states, the DEA in December 2016 clarified that CBD oil and similar products are a Schedule I drug, just like marijuana itself. Adding to the confusion is the fact that hemp oil and CBD oil are not the same thing: Hemp oil is made from the seeds and stalk of the plant, not the flower which is where you get cannabis CBD oil.

Googling CBD will bring up sites that sell Hemp CBD oil not cannabis CBD. Your state has medical marijuana for very Specfic Debilitating Conditions. Website for qualifying illnesses.

While CBD oil is good for some ailments, it is not effective for COPD. With COPD, you need cannabis oil high in THC which is a brochodilator. I am using cannabis oil with good results. Look for a FB group called COPD and Cannabis A New Beginning. It's a good group to learn about what you need, how to use it, etc.

Not what you're looking for?
