— There are lots of reasons to use CBD oil. From pain and inflammation relief to help with conditions like insomnia or ADHD, it’s one of the closest things we’ve found to a miracle drug.
But it’s important to know how CBD oil works in order to buy the best quality.
Basically, cannabidiol (CBD) binds with various receptors in your body to work its magic. For example, CBD has a strong affinity to fatty acid binding proteins (FABP) that are responsible for chaperoning lipids to the cell interior. This delays adenosine uptake in the cell which is responsible for inflammation.
You don’t need to understand the science to get the takeaway: you’re putting something in your body that will affect your cells. Wouldn’t you only want the purest, highest-quality product if it’s basically becoming a part of you?
Valeria interviews Dawn Norby — She is the Founder of Budding Botanicals.
Dawn Norby’s son was diagnosed with idiopathic aplastic anemia in 2006. In 2011, he needed a bone marrow transplant. Make A Wish came to us and asked if they could grant him a wish before his transplant.
He chose to go to Scotland and golf at St. Andrew’s Golf Course.
Little did we know that this trip would be what got him through his pain of treatments before his transplant. It was then that Dawn decided to pay it forward and become a volunteer for Make A Wish. Before she could start her volunteering, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Going through the same types of treatments her son went through, she knew her mission was to find a way to help volunteer for others. Well, she was finally able to make that wish come true.
Her first Wish kiddo was dealing with Leukemia and was in much pain from the side effects of chemotherapy. Being able to relate to his pain, his mother asked if I could make something to help his son alleviate his pain. After speaking with his doctors, they recommended what ever I did make, be all-natural.
Off to study for Dawn. She finally decided Hemp isolate would be best as it is all-natural and THC free!
She made a salve and took it to him. After using it just once, he was able to play with his brother for the first time is months!
It was then that she knew she wanted to help people in pain find an all-natural pain relief that would help them also find relief.
A business was started!
Eleven years later and they still make everything in small batches with all-natural ingredients.
