It has also been proven to treat epilepsy, seizures disorders, and many others.
Some claim that it helps manage the effect of their cancer treatments. Studies show that it may give some relief to anxiety, PTSD, and addiction. CBD contains an amino acid called L-Thiamine. This compound regulates the body’s responses, which is also found in green tea; it helps reduce stress.
