CBD & Exams: CBD oil can be useful for some people but I know of no studies on its impact when focusing on material during exams. I think you would be better helped by practicing a little mind-body technique called the Relaxation Response. See www.relaxationresponse.org for more information. Good luck w/the exams.

Worth a try: There's good scientific evidence CBD can help anxiety and insomnia. It's safe and well-tolerated. It will help some more than others. It will probably not directly help concentration but won't impair it. Being less anxious and better-rested should improve concentration. For research on cbd and anxiety see https://www.projectcbd.org/hub/anxiety ; for sleep see https://www.projectcbd.org/hub/sleep
