The infamous Jack Herer was quoted as saying, “I don’t know if hemp will save the world, but it’s the only thing that can.” This incredible plant can be used to produce food, medicine, textiles, building materials, clothing, paper, biofuel, environmental remediation and literally thousands of other things. There are more than 25,000 documented uses for hemp.
Likely the most diversely utilized plant on the planet, hemp has been a part of human history for millennia. Hemp cloth dating back to 8,000 B.C. has even been uncovered in ancient Mesopotamia, which is modern-day Iraq and Iran.

Hemp matures in 90 days, removes toxins and heavy metals from its environment – both from the soil it’s planted in and the air around it – converts more carbon dioxide to oxygen per square acre than trees do, is naturally pest and mold resistant, and requires less water per acre than both cotton and trees to produce.
Pain Relief REVIEWS BY W YAT T E A R LY @ E R R LY W YAT T
CBD FOR LIFE TOPICAL SPRAY For quick and easy on-the-go pain relief, I always go to my CBD for Life topical spray. Sometimes when I’m on the road for long hours, my legs and back begin to tighten up. I chose this spray because it’s so easy to use and there’s zero messiness during application. I simply spray the area of my body that is experiencing pain, wait a few short seconds for it to dry, and I can move on with my day. I found that one to two sprays provided me with lasting pain relief. Another thing I really enjoyed about this product was the minty and sweet smell - which is important if you’re going to be spraying it on your body. 100MG | CBDFORLIFE.US

Roll-on products can be a highly useful tool in managing your level of comfort. After a week of catching crabs on the shore my back was killing me, providing me with the perfect opportunity to test this product out. Within two minutes, the FDA approved lidocaine, menthol and camphor created a cooling sensation that soothed my pain. That’s when the broad spectrum CBD distillate had a chance to work its way into my body, providing me with lasting pain relief. Even on unusually painful days and nights, one morning application and one evening application definitely quelled any discomfort.
