Join us for a live recording of the Brave New Weed Podcast and an exciting discussion about all of the powerful health benefits of CBD.
with hosts Joe Dolce & Matthew Hendershot and special guest Dr. Junella Chin
Tuesday, August 15th
8:00-10:00 pm
CBD is the quiet sister molecule to noisy THC in cannabis. It’s not psychoactive, and because of that, was accidentally bred out of North American varieties under prohibition. In the last 1 years its amazing healing powers have been discovered. It’s a potent anti-inflammatory – 20 times more powerful than aspirin – and works well with illnesses, ranging from pain relief to anxiety.
The good news, CBD can be extracted from hemp, which means it can be sold around the country without running afoul of federal law. The bad news: It is unregulated so many of the products on the market are substandard and should be avoided.
Join Joe Dolce, the author of Brave New Weed: Adventures into the Uncharted World of Cannabis and creator of the wildly popular Brave New Weed Podcast as he and podcast co-host Matthew Hendershot talk to the amazing Dr. Junella Chin, an integrative physician with vast experience in cannabis therapeutics, in a frank and informative discussion about CBD. It will make you reexamine everything you thought you knew about the healing powers of this amazing plant.
You can hear more of the podcast ahead of time via iTunes or Google Play.
