As parents and people in this world, so many of you want to know about the safety of CBD oil, as well you should!
CBD, especially compared to the drugs and even supplements you might take instead, has been shown in studies to be extremely safe.
As stated, chronic use of up to 1500 mg per day (a whole bottle of our most potent formula!) is consistently well tolerated.
Side effects to watch for tend to be very minor and don’t last long, such as: dry mouth, diarrhea, and a foggy feeling. The foggy feeling can be fixed usually by eating or drinking a little something.
Drug Interactions
Harvard conducted an extremely thorough study examining hundreds of medications for CBD drug interactions. It did not find many. However, what we did learn is that CBD uses the same pathway for its metabolism as many pharmaceuticals. Therefore, it can slow down the metabolism of those drugs, causing them to act with more strength, time, and effectiveness in your body. Sometimes it is possible and even necessary to lower your pharmaceutical doses if you are pairing them with CBD, which is often a very good thing!

I have used it in two pregnancies, breastfeeding three babies, and with my baby six months and up regularly with wonderful results. However, I think this podcast with Dr Jess does the best job in explaining all the specifics!
