So today at the store, one of our regulars popped in and told me his friend has covid-19, and he's taking CBD, and doing well.  I asked about his lungs and he said he had no trouble there.  I asked was he on immune suppressants, steroids, and he said no.  I do not personally know anyone with covid-19.  My 90 year old Father, and many clients, 72+ are fine.  Those older folks, I know are not on immunosuppressants, but do have autoimmune diseases such as osteoarthritis.   I am so curious as to the reality of all this and would like to discover if there is a common denominator.  I would love to hear your comments if you know anyone with covid-19.  I would like to know age, disease if any, cbd user, and whether they are on immune suppressant drugs.  Immunosuppressants can be divided into classes including calcineurin inhibitors, interleukin inhibitors, selective immunosuppressants and TNF alfa inhibitors.  
​Thank you and take care.

So this post is not really about CBD, but as we know CBD can help manage the stress from Covid-19 and all the theorizing going on.  Anyway, one of the theories has me thinking about the 5G network that is being installed and its EMF ramification.  Not going to go into the theory that is being spread out there, you can research that for self and make your own decision if this theory has any validity.  But it got me thinking about quite a number of people we see at the store, who are experiencing severe anxiety with panic attacks.  Generally these are younger adults and when probed they tell me they reside in apartments in the metro phx city.  The CBD helps immensely, but I got to thinking what else might help our younger generation.  So a bit of research, I discovered there is much EMF being emitted as there are 5G cell towers being implemented in the city center of Phoenix.  Basically if you live anywhere near power lines or cell phone service, you are being exposed to artificial electromagnetic fields.  These EMF’s can effect any system in your body and can effect hormones, immune system, sleep cycles, stress levels and even your DNA.  Many studies have shown that EMF radiation can even cause cancer and infertility. 
You can’t see, touch, smell or taste EMF.  As with any pollutant, the absolute best EMF protection is to reduce your exposure to the pollutant as well as maximize distance between you and the EMF source.  Here are some ideas

1. Turn Off your WiFi Router at Night
   WiFi routers are a relatively significant source of EMF radiation exposure in many homes. And most people keep their routers on 24 hours a day, leading to significant cumulative non-stop exposure. So one way to make a massive reduction in your EMF exposure is to turn off your WiFi router at night, when it’s not in use.  
2. Don’t Carry Your Phone in Your Pocket. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4930268/
   When your phone is directly against your body, it is likely one of your biggest – if not the biggest – sources of your EMF exposure. Even many cell phone companies like Apple tell you not to carry your phone in your pocket, because if you do, your exposure can exceed safety standards. So don’t carry your phone in your pocket, or turn it into airplane mode if you do.
3. Don’t Buy Smart Stuff You Don’t Need
   Each and every device you buy is a new source of EMF. And with all the new “smart” tech being developed and released, a whole new class of products are now sources of EMF (for example, a door lock was never a source of EMF until they introduced ‘smart’ locks). As each new device is an additional source of EMF radiation, really consider whether the benefit of this new device outweighs the increased risk to your health.
4. Delay Getting Your Child a Smartphone. Ownership and use of phones are linked to decreased grades and increased anxiety in children.  This is even more important because children are more vulnerable to damage from EMF radiation.
5. Use WiFi Calling Instead of Cell Data. WiFi emits much less power than a cell connection. And so if you use WiFi calling instead of your cell connection, you can still get all the benefits of your cell phone (sending and receiving calls and texts) with much less radiation.
6. Don’t Sleep With Your Phone. Many studies show that sleeping with your phone can significantly disrupt your sleep. In addition to that, if you sleep with your phone, you’re being exposed to cell phone radiation all night long – when you’re not even using the phone. So don’t bring it to bed, or turn it onto airplane mode if you do.
7. Keep Your WiFi Router as Far Away as Possible  Enjoy WiFi – just keep the router as far away from where you and your family spend your time, to make a big difference in your exposure.
8. Use Speakerphone or a Radiation Free Headset. Just like you shouldn’t carry your phone in your pocket, you also shouldn’t hold your phone up to your head (and using Bluetooth headphones is not safe). In fact, this is even more important because when you’re making a call, your phone is emitting much more EMF radiation. So you should use a speakerphone or an anti-radiation headset.
9. Don’t Use Your Laptop in Your Lap. Just like phones shouldn’t be held against your body, neither should laptops. Despite their name, laptops aren’t for laps.
10. Keep Your Furniture Away from Outlets. All AC power – whether from our kitchen appliances or from the electrical lines that power them – emit EMF radiation. Power outlets can act as a more concentrated source of this radiation – especially when they have something plugged into them. So keep your furniture as far away from them as possible.

If you implement these simple precautions, you can make a huge impact on your cumulative exposure to EMF, and start living healthier in modern technology driven society.  I personally found that listening to certain frequencies helped greatly with the "dread" feeling of late.  Check this link out-- https://www.relaxmelodies.com/blog/science-behind-solfeggio-frequencies/

Also there are good EMF protection products that can further reduce your exposure to EMF radiation. Below we  share some products that you can use to help lessen your exposure to EMF’s.

Edibles are a delicious way to get your CBD!  Easy to take, you just pop them in and eat them.  Accurate dosing too--other methods of ingesting, can be difficult to measure. Each edible contains a specific amount of CBD in each piece and package.  

Edibles are broken down more slowly in the digestive system, releasing CBD gradually over a longer period of time.  And who doesn't want that!

CBD edibles come in a wide variety of delicious choices.  The every popular soft chewy gummie, velvety chocolate bar and bites, creamy caramels, and long lasting hard lozenges and suckers are just a few out on the market.  Check out our variety of CBD edibles selection here.

Just remember to close and put the package away after taking your CBD edible or you might end up eating the entire pack!  Yes, they are that delicious!

With all that is going on currently we thought we would speak to the factor of stress and your immune system which are directly connected. When you experience chronic stress, your adrenal glands release excessive amounts of cortisol, also known as the “stress hormone.”
Cortisol suppresses white blood cells, interferes with T cells, lowers the immune barrier, increases platelets, and increases neutrophils. These effects lead to poor immune function and predispose your body to viral infection, bacterial infection, cancer, and more.

How to Improve Stress and Immune System Function

1. Walking helps you clear your mind, burn built-up energy, and get exercise, which increases mood-boosting hormones. A walk every day will help you keep stress under control and prevent stressors from building up and causing chronic tension in the body.
2. Vitamin D is important for your stress levels and mood. It has been shown to give your mood a positive boost and lower anxiety levels. The best source of vitamin D is natural sunlight. If you choose, try vitamin D3 and K2 supplements.
3. Remove Yourself From Stressors  Not always possible and if you can't avoid stress triggers--use CBD to help manage stress.  
4. B vitamins have a massive influence on your ability to release stress. In fact, consuming high levels of B vitamins is associated with a 20% decrease in stress.  
5. When you sleep, your body and mind take a break from the day’s physical and mental stressors. If you aren’t getting 7-8 hours of sleep each night, you may not have enough time to rejuvenate fully, which causes stress to build up in the body.
These stress-reducers are best used to prevent a chronic stress problem or built-up tension. 

Could cannabis help treat diabetes? A small but growing body of research suggests that certain cannabinoids may hold promise.
In a study published in the journal Molecules, researchers from the Institute of Biomolecular Chemistry in Italy have found that cannabimovone (CBM), a rare cannabinoid, can sensitize cells to insulin. CBM thus joins CBD, THC, THCV, and THCA as a potentially promising avenue of research for diabetes prevention.  The Italian researchers were interested in THC and CBD’s insulin-sensitizing effects and wondered if there were any other cannabinoids that might do the same with fewer side effects. Using computer modeling, they searched their cannabinoid database, and there it was: CBM fit into the model.
​Makes one wonder what else does cannabis have in its arsenal of healing.
