“Does CBD help anxiety?”

CBD may help reduce anxiety in some people, but it’s best to talk to your doctor about using it as a treatment.

Yes it does.

There are inadequate scientific studies on this.

Truly a very, very excellent question! CBD, actually a category for over 140 different chemicals, needs to be further evaluated. Most studies don’t differentiate between the various CBD chemicals, and any adulterants or potencies when comparing factors and interventions and research. Most scientifically oriented positions suggest going with non-medication interventions, and possibly holistic and medication approaches, that are FDA approved. Hopefully, soon, CBD will prove to be safe and beneficial!
