How's it growing folks?! After bringing in Ric Flair for last week’s episode, I’ve been back in the lab talking with some of the country’s premier experts in Cannabidiol (better known as CBD).

To help explain the science behind the cannabinoid that is seemingly everywhere now-a-days, my first guest is Dr. John Streicher of the University of Arizona.

Streicher is part of a team of pioneering researchers looking into the pharmacological effects of cannabinoids and terpenes in pain management. As a matter of fact, you can hear a little about that research in my season one episode “It’s Pain Management.”

My second guest is Inesa Ponomariovaite is the owner and founder of Nesa’s Hemp, a nationally available line of CBD and CBDa hemp oils.

The episode focuses on explaining what makes CBD different from THC and other cannabinoids, what conditions or ailments it could help people with and what its future is when it comes to pharmaceutical applications.

We also touch on the difference between CBD derived from hemp plants as opposed to marijuana plants and if the CBD products you can find at your local grocery store are the same as the ones you’ll find at state-licensed dispensaries.

The episode begins with Streicher explaining what CBD is and where it can be derived from.
