Yea, that particular sentence is clunky and ambiguous. My takeaway is that CBD oil is made from cannabis Flowers (buds/colas) and Hemp oil is made from Hemp seeds.
All three articles point out that A bunch of hemp vendors (owned by the same shady hemp company) are trying to pass off their CBD oil as legal cannabis oil and it is not really what people are looking for. It is not keeping epileptic babies alive. Hemp oil is good for you. It will help with inflammation and immune function but it's not medical oil and DEFINITELY not R.Simpson oil. Currently there is no fully legal CBD oil that can easily be purchased over the net. If you think you are buying Simpson oil or Cannabis oil legally in a prohibited state, you are either buying ineffective medicine that's better off on your salads than anywhere else, or you can expect a knock on your door from some unhappy cops.
Do not get ripped off. Hemp oil should be fairly cheap and not passed off as meds. And BE CAREFUL. This is still an illicit drug that can carry major consequences if precautions aren't taken. And sometimes even if they are.

Faithful777,
When you say that you are in remission. Did the Cannabis Oil put your Lyme into Remission, or are you using the CO as a therapy to keep you in remission?
What THC/CBD ratio does your LLMD think is best for Lyme and Co-infections?
I am leaning towards a higher THC oil( based on what i have researched so far).
What dosage per day does your LLMD think the killing starts at?
I have done a fair amount of research on all of this and getting ready to go down the CO path.
Lots of stuff out there on CO killing cancer cells and eliminating tumors. If it can kill cancer then i would think it is worth a shot of using it for Lyme and Cos.
When i smoke it really helps my symptoms, so i am thinking the oil being so much stronger and concentrated will kill what needs to be killed.
I 100% agree with the above, hemp oil will not do anything near what we need done. Has to be from the actual Cannabis plant........

I always thought hemp was cannabis.
I guess I was wrong.

Technically yes, but hemp is grown more for the use of stalk/seeds and does not produce the actual flower/bud part of the plant.
The flower/bud part is where you get the THC/CBD from. Hemp will also produce CBD and small amounts of THC, but in a much lower concentration vs getting it from the actual flower/bud.
Another way to think about it would be Hemp would be the male plant, and Cannabis would be the female plant. In order to get the flower/bud you need a female plant.

quote:Originally posted by lymeboy: Hemp oil is NOT the same as CBD oil. Nor can CBD oil be extracted from hemp seeds. Hemp oil will contain a low amount of CBD, and is very good for you regardless of that. But be aware CBD oil is not legal without a medical card in medical states (except for in the newly legal states where anyone may buy it).
Hemp oil comes from Hemp seeds. CBD oil comes from the big buds of a marijuana plant.
Completely agree. I tried hemp seed oil (a friend's) and although it is not nearly the same thing as CBD oil, it still helped me, perhaps because I'm sensitive. I slept better when I used it and it also took away that nasty fight or flight mode that I've been in for years. I can't wait to get my hands on the real deal.
Everyone in every single state should petition for mj to be legal. It's insane that it's not. It helps people way more than alcohol.
