What does CBD do according to research?

Is CBD good for anxiety and/or PTSD? Is CBD good for treating substance use disorders? Is CBD good for chronic pain and arthritis?

With CBD being added to more things all the time (drinks, lotion, vitamins and even water) it can be hard to know what is real and what isn’t. In our work as therapists we really need to know what science is saying about CBD and its benefits. I took on the task of sorting through research to find the truth.
