Yes CBD is very important and has many medical properties, it can help replace many pharma-based drugs. It's safe even for children, it has no THC which is the psychoactive component that gets people high... you can't get high off CBD. Becuase of Gov't intervention, the price of CBD or cannabis for that matter is artificially inflated. If hemp with high CBD content was grown outdoors, the cost would be pennies per gram, but with gov't rules and regulations, we pay anywhere from $7-12 per gram depending on strains or type of oils.
