Is CBD the Answer? How Women Use CBD to Manage Menopause

Curious about when or how women use CBD to their best advantage? I’ve been using CBD off and on for about 6 years. I originally began after being gifted some products that then loved so much I shared with my mom for her lower back. I’ve used rubs and lotions for recovering from training rides and runs during triathlon training. 

But I think there are now several indications as well as formats for using CBD that may make your head spin if you’re new to it. So this episode is designed to help clarify as well as to know what’s the difference between all the products you see available just everywhere now? What’s quality vs not really supportive at all? 

But… there is SO MUCH more in this episode. Get to know your hormones better in the next 40 minutes. I promise.
