Editor’s Note: Gee whiz…do you think this author is correct in her assumptions? Personally, I think the benefits of pot/CBD are far too overwhelming to be ignored and IS the reason why more and more legal availability for these substances is steadily growing.
Stay tuned as our growing sense of sovereignty will evidence itself with the legalization of truly effective use of pot/CBD, know that miracles are here in our NOW, and be…
InJoy!

The pharmaceutical industry has a reputation for being corrupt and putting their financial interests above all else.
They push drugs that cause more harm than good, bribe doctors to administer their prescriptions, and bury any evidence that may damage the public perception of their products.
Big pharma has proven time and time again that they are only interested in making money—nothing else.
This is why they have worked relentlessly to hide powerful natural remedies from the public. If everyone starts using natural remedies instead of prescriptions, pharmaceutical companies will lose billions of dollars in revenue.
By far one of the biggest threats to the pharmaceutical industry is CBD oil, a compound that is naturally extracted from hemp.
Big Pharma does not want you to know about CBD oil because it has a wide range of therapeutic benefits that can replace several different drugs highly profitable drugs.
Anti-Inflammatory Drugs
Over-the-counter drugs that alleviate pain like Ibuprofen, Aspirin, and Aleve, are one of the biggest cash-cows for big pharma with a net worth of over $130 billion.
These pain-killing drugs, also called NSAIDs, dull pain by temporarily soothing inflammation in the body. They work exceptionally well at modulating pain, but they come with a concerning list of negative side effects. This includes stomach ulcers, heartburn, and liver problems. Additionally, extended NSAID use has even been linked to an increased risk of heart failure.
CBD oil, on the other hand, is scientifically proven to provide substantial relief from pain and discomfort all without the nasty side effects that come with taking NSAIDs.
This is why people all over the world are beginning to use CBD oil for headaches, back pain, muscle soreness, and general pain.
Anti-Anxiety Drugs
Drugs that are designed to help anxiety are another immense money maker for the pharmaceutical industry.
The problem is, these drugs produce mixed results. Some people experience relief, whereas others continue to struggle with their inner demons.
Even if they do work, many people end up ditching their prescription due to the unpleasant side effects, including weight gain, increased heart rate, headaches, suicidal thoughts, dry mouth, increased blood pressure, and sexual dysfunction.
The good news is, research shows that CBD oil is tremendously effective for treating anxiety—all without the dangerous side effects that come with popular anti-anxiety medications.
One study published in the Brazilian Journal of Psychiatry, for example, found that CBD oil had a powerful therapeutic effect on several conditions related to anxiety including post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and social anxiety.
Sleeping Pills
Do you often struggle to fall asleep or stay asleep throughout the night?
If so, you are certainly not alone. Surveys have found that over 70% of Americans are not able to get enough quality sleep.
This epidemic of sleep deprivation has forced many people to find solace in pharmaceutical sleeping pills—be it over-the-counter or through a prescription. Like the other drugs mentioned, sleeping pills come with a frightening list of side effects and can be extremely addicting.
Thanks to the marketing tactics of big pharma, most people are completely unaware that CBD oil is a safer alternative for improving your sleep without creating an addiction.
Numerous studies have shown that CBD oil can specifically help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. In fact, CBD oil is so effective at improving your sleep that some scientists propose it could be used for the treatment of insomnia.
