Question 5

what are the health effects of smoking hemp oil (not cannabis)?

Accepted Answer

Hard to say: There have been a number of recent reviews of potential effects from the higher levels of cannabidiol (not THC) in hemp oils, and how they might have anti-tumor effects, anti-convulsant effects particularly in some refractory childhood forms of epilepsy, as well as effects for treatment of neuropathic pain and muscle spasm.  However as with THC there is uncertainty in dosing, purity, other issues.

Accepted Answer

No data available: It is hard to trust the website that says that cbd hemp oil has no psycho active properties and then goes on to list a broad range of psycho active effects.

Question 8

i am wondering if you can get addicted to a product called elixinol, it is a hemp oil and coconut extract combination made up of hemp seeds and stalks?

Accepted Answer

Not very likely: at least from a physical dependency point of view.  Hemp oil and similar products have a lot of CBD (cannabinodiol), which actually has actions which are pretty much the opposite of THC, and are not thought to be able to produce physical dependency.  However, physical dependency is not a necessary component for having addiction (better termed now a severe substance use disorder). Why the concern?

Question 9

Accepted Answer
