The bad news:

• Americans consume 80% of the world’s opioids, yet comprise only 5% of the world’s population.
• The opiate problem in the USA is lethal and growing.
• Prescription opioid abuse is worse than heroin abuse; it is a bigger problem and it starts in the doctor’s office.
• In the United States, nearly 50 percent of people who take opioids for more than 30 days in the first year continue to use opioids for three years or longer.
• Nearly 60 percent of USA patients are taking opiates with other drugs that are known to make the opioids more dangerous, to make an overdose more likely.
• In Maine, in one year, sixty-nine percent of drug overdose deaths were caused by prescribed opioids.
• Nearly 80 percent of heroin users in the United States reported using prescription opioids before initiating heroin use.

  When a doctor is face-to-face with a chronic pain patient who says, “My pain is worse, the opioids aren’t working, I need more. If I don’t get them I’m not going to be able to go to work, I’m not going to be able to support my family, I’m not going to be able to function”—it’s hard for that clinician to say no.[1]

The good news:

• There is significant scientific and clinical data highlighting the potential of Cannabis as a lifesaving treatment for opiate addiction.
• Hemp is legal in all 50 states and CBD oil derived from hemp provides the same beneficial cannabidiol compounds as medical marijuana.
• Taking CBD oil derived from hemp can provide profound help to those struggling with opioid addiction.
• The best CBD oil delivers the full spectrum components of the cannabis plant without the THC since hemp contains less than 0.3% THC. There are no adverse side effects from CBD oil and it can provide lifesaving treatment for opiate addiction. CBD oil can be a first line treatment for opioid addiction, not a last resort.

Many people are finding the benefits of this natural plant which fit exactly with our endocannabinoid system. A unique plant and a unique design.
