Not too long ago, regulations on CBD changed in Germany leading to a plethora of products containing it. As someone who occasionally needs pain medication, I tried some of the products to avoid regular pain killers (ibu). Especially on days with lighter pain, I wished for an alternative to the sledgehammer meds. But I was left standing in the rain. I didn’t feel any effect. That’s why I would love to hear from your experiments and experience.

    Your body feels hungover because you were taking something that your body was using and then you stopped providing it. That’s not really a hangover so much as a previous source of nutrition that’s no longer being had!

    Taking CBD compounds helps start and regulate our endocannabinoid system which helps with chronic nerve pain, gastrointestinal issues, issues with insomnia, mood, and anxiety.

    Basically, it’s not like you were taking some acetaminophen for a headache to literally stop you from feeling its presence. It’s still there, regardless of the medication or not. It’s more like you were taking something that acted as a muscle relaxant, which removed the pressure from the thing preventing the headache from happening in the first place.

      Maybe, but ya know drugs affect everyone differently, and I can tell you it 100% felt like a hangover - like drinking, not like something I needed.
