Anecdotal evidence abounds for cannabidiol (CBD) and hemp supplements, but what does the actual scientific literature say? This free webinar explores the science of hemp-derived cannabinoids and terpenes. If you’re not prepared to wake before dawn (or stay up very late) for the live webinar, a recorded version will be available after the fact.
Everyone’s talking about CBD and hemp: in this hour-long seminar, organised by William Reed publishers for exclusive sponsor US-based KGK Science, a panel of experts in the field will discuss the science behind the hype, looking at the endocannabinoid system, hemp-derived cannabinoids (including CBD) and terpenes.
Along with registered attendees’ questions, the panel will attempt to answer the questions:
- What potential benefits are biologically plausible, why and how?
- What kind of doses are needed to elicit a health benefit?
- What peer-reviewed data does and doesn’t support with regard to hemp-derived cannabinoids including CBD, and terpenes?
- What does the data really say about potential adverse events?
