Prominent Studies in 2017 Part 1

 

Leafly came out with a year end top 2017 studies in reference to cannabidiol and that got us thinking and wanted to compile our own list.  We have used some of the studies that they highlighted as well as some studies of our own.  We hope that you find these informative, and it is great with the continued ability to study cannabinoids that we are able to discover more therapeutic uses as well as how cannabinoids specifically cannabidiol are able to help our bodies naturally treat a variety of conditions.
