I’m excited to share my latest book, CBD for Caregivers. This brief but informative e-book will shed light on what is one of the top health trends of 2019: CBD (cannabidiol.) Hemp-derived CBD is being soil in oil-based tinctures, edibles, topicals and infused into tea and coffee. How can this potentially beneficial supplement help caregivers?
I look beyond the hype and take you on the journey of an average middle-aged woman with no marijuana experience who explores CBD with an open mind and a healthy dose of skepticism. What I found is that CBD holds promise as a healthier way to deal with stress and pain. There are no miracle drugs and some of the more fantastical claims are indeed bunk. But I would also challenge those who argue that positive CBD claims are all just a giant placebo effect.
In addition to an overview of what CBD is and how it may help caregivers, the e-book contains a roundup of my CBD product reviews that are a popular feature on my website, CBDforCaregivers.com.
For my loyal blog followers, you can download CBD for Caregivers for free for a limited time. I would kindly ask that you leave a review at your favorite digital retailer if you grab a free copy. The book is available at the following digital book retailers. There was a hiccup with Amazon but hopefully it will be available via Kindle soon as well.
I look forward to hearing your feedback on the book and CBD in general. If you’ve tried it, I’d love to hear your opinion.

Hi Joy. I had no idea you were writing another book or that you were interested in CBD oil. Do you use it?
I live with chronic joint pain, and I took CBD oil for a while. It seemed to help in the beginning, but after a while it lost it’s effect. I then used it for my dog’s arthritis, and the same thing happened with him. I was told by the shop owner to try a higher dose, and I found that when I did that it put me to sleep. I will say that it did give me a calming effect, and I slept better at night when using it. I decided that it wasn’t effective enough for us to keep paying the astronomical cost for the product.
Congratulations on your new book. Very exciting.
Thanks Lori for sharing your experience with CBD. It is pricey, so hopefully more competition will help drive prices down.
I just heard today that Walgreens is going to start selling it. Probably won’t be organic, but at least that’s competition.
True. CVS also will sell CBD topicals like lotions, creams, etc. in certain states.
