Ineffective CBD Oil Ordered Online?

Fri, 05/15/2015 - 21:33

Have you ordered CBD hemp oil online and found it ineffective? I'm a journalist, and I'm looking into companies that sell CBD Oil online that actually contains little to no CBD, as the Drug Policy Alliance and the FDA recently warned. I'm looking for patients who may have tried these oils -- I'd like to help spread the word about their ineffectiveness and raise awareness about the fact that not all products labeled CBD are the same as the Charlotte's Web oil featured on CNN and in other news stories. 

I would love to talk, either on the record or anonymously, with anyone how has had this experience and would like to share their story. The website that I write for reaches over 200 million readers a month, and I'd like to help get some good information out there so no one else buys CBD oil that has no CBD in it.

Thanks for reading!
