To date, there is no evidence of recreational use of CBD or any public health related problems associated with the use of pure CBD.
As of May 8, 2018, CBD products are legal to consumers over the age of 21 in 17 states including California.
Currently, in Canada CBD is not legally accessible, however, it will become legal once the federal Cannabis Act passes later this year. Until then, Marapharm will include organic hemp oil as the primary carrier oil and will announce the launch of its Canadian products imminently to Canadian consumers through its website www.maragoldstore.com.
Hemp oil itself is rich in gamma-linolenic acid, which promotes healthy hair, nails, and skin and can aid in the reduction of inflammation. It is a source of protein, polyunsaturated fatty acids, omega 3 & 6, tocopherols, Vitamin E antioxidants and includes minerals such as potassium, magnesium, iron, zinc, calcium, and phosphorus. Hemp oil can be used to counteract aging skin and when ingested can improve immunity and cardiovascular health. Several studies have shown that the linoleic acid present in hemp oil can slow down the aging process and fight psoriasis. http://www.hemp.com/hemp-education/uses-of-hemp/hemp-oil/hemp-oil-nutritional-information/
