Good news about CBD oil

I have just been informed by my daughter who lives in Auckland and works at one of the major hospitals in Auckland that CBD oil is now being prescribed and recommended by the hospital doctors. How wonderful to make this product legal in New Zealand, hopefully it soon comes to Australia as it works so well for me in helping to control symptoms of RLS.

CBD oil is already legally available in Australia. You just need to find someone to prescribe it. My sleep specialist prescribes it as do the numerous cannabis clinics across Australia.

Yes, CBD oil is legally prescribed by some GPs., and in my area where I live (regional) there is little chance of seeing the prescriber due to demand on him. It is a big leap from that to having hospital doctors promoting the oil in their outpatient letters back to the patient's GP. Just shows, CBD oil is not the enemy it has been thought to be in the past. Obviously more research into the product has produced favourable results.
