Yes - these guys are amazing, if a little late in delivering sometimes! It’s top quality stuff. One drop under the tongue, hold for 3 minutes.

I use blue for ADHD daytime focus

Green for fibro Pain daytime

Purple too daytime for pain if nec

White for sleep.

If you only have money for one, go with whichever you need most!

I also use one of these for additional pain puffs:

None of it gets you high as there’s no THC. Which is great!

Don’t get medipen stuff as it’s crap quality. You want chemically proven and regulated CBD extract which they can’t quite explain!

Also, don’t vape the CBD brothers’ oils: it’s for oral use only.

Good luck!

Not blue for kids because it’s energising: I have ME so need the energy with the focus. My husband also has ADHD and is knackered from work all the time so Blue is good for him too. Our 10-year old daughter with ADHD, not so much! She is currently taking purple during the day and white at night. It’s early days so I’m not sure how she’s doing yet. Got to be better for her than her Usual methylphenidate hydrochloride though (which she’s still taking at th same time til Christmas and we can monitor on the CBD her ourselves during the day)!

Below are some comments I’ve copied from another forum with regards to the excellent CBD Brothers and what to give kids with ADHD. They’re each from a different person on different threads, so it’s great they all agree!

- If you’re looking for a calming sensation I'd suggest white and purple products from cbd Brothers. The white, red, purple, and black oil are all from hybrid plants so these are the calming ones.

- I’d personally suggest the Purple edition Water Soluble product for children. Its probably the easiest for kids because it can be put into a drink and taken that way, so no battles over them taking their oils. And the purple is an indica hybrid which can be quite calming, which could be helpful for a child with ADHD and trouble concentrating because calm = more able to focus.

- Maybe purple caps in the day and then a drop or two of red at night would be a good start. Remember you always need to take it low and slow as their CBD receptors need to wake up and can’t be flooded or they’ll feel awful.

- Alternatively, if you need stronger than purple during the day and white at night, then try White during the day and Red at night.

^ All of these have had great results for kids with ADHD ^

Good luck!

Can it be used for fatigue and low energy? Or does it have a more calming effect?

Blue CBD Bros oil for fatigue and low energy. Green too - especially for extra pain.

If you suffer from bad anxiety then purple would be better.

(half a grain of paste or 1 drop oil. Doesn’t have to be oil, can be topical ointment or whatever. Look at the CBDBrothers.com website

Thankyou! It all looks a bit scary. Plus quite expensive for me, especially if it doesn't work :(. Will do some more research x

Abi-Abster profile image
Abi-Abster in reply toLillie23

Scary in what way?

If it’s because it’s made of hemp, then it’s a plant like any other. Imagine a basil oil or rosemary oil like you use for cooking. No different but with health properties. Like medication without side-effects - unlike many pharmaceuticals!

Doesn’t get you high, doesn’t change your psyche or make you feel drunk or weirded out. Just hits the pain where it hurts, elevates your mood and/ or helps you stay asleep depending on the oil you choose.

But yes, it’s definitely expensive but then with CBD oil you pay for what you get. Plus the ethos this company have is outstanding.

I would suggest buying samples if you’re not sure. They only release a limited amount for sale each day but the size is generous. Just keep checking back til there are some in stock:

Yes, I guess so. It's just I'm still so fatigued on my T3 and wondered if it would do anything or not. Thankyou, will check that out, just don't have much money due to being on ESA! X

Honey, I know that feeling.

The samples come on in the mornings and the evenings. Total luck. Just try every now and again and you’ll get there!

What if you have muscle pain, fatigue & anxiety? All 3 are my worst symptoms and I’ve been wanting to try CBD oil for a long time but wanted a good quality. Thanks

Abi-Abster in reply toMissFG

Purple :-)

Good luck!

Abi-Abster in reply toAbi-Abster

Also, ask for a green sample too, though don’t take green in the evening, and if you notice it makes you more anxious then def stick with Purple (which is a hybrid, so slightly different plant mix).

I’ve ordered the samples to try thank you! I’ve wanted this info for ages x

Abi-Abster in reply toMissFG

Yay!

Abi-Abster in reply toMissFG

Go low and slow - 1 drop 3 times a day. It’s not a case of more is more at all.

It’s accumulative so may take a fair few days to start seeing effects.

Also, they’ve always been brilliant to me but others have noted they can be a little slack in terms of dispatch/ postage/ etc. So do nudge them if you have any issues!

Thanks I’m used to low and slow with thyroid meds and immune suppressants so it won’t be a problem. Fingers crossed they don’t take too long :)
