Why Are More Seniors Using CBD?
People from all walks of life are beginning to incorporate CBD into their daily routine, but perhaps the sharpest rise has come from seniors using CBD after discovering the many benefits it offers.
A new study from Remedy Review, which surveyed more than 1,000 seniors ages 54 and up, found that 9% of seniors have tried CBD for health-related reasons. Among the survey participants who had tried CBD, 42% they had explored using it in hopes it would help with inflammation. The other top reasons given for trying CBD use were chronic pain (40.6%), poor sleep quality (38.6%) and arthritis pain (31.8%).
Although it’s unclear from the study whether CBD oil addressed their specific conditions, 51.1% of seniors in the survey who had used CBD reported an overall higher quality of life. The findings showed 65% of the seniors reported their quality of life as good, while 31.1% said it remained the same after taking CBD. Nearly 29% of participants found CBD to be extremely effective, while 38% said it was moderately effective.
Tinctures were by far the most popular way to take CBD. Most put the drops directly into their mouth (54.4%), while others (21.1%) preferred to mix it in a beverage. The most popular methods of consumption also included edibles (21.1%) and capsules (15.6%).
But perhaps the most encouraging sign from the survey is the overall satisfaction rates. About 89% of seniors said they would recommend CBD to a family member or friend for health-related purposes and 78% said they were satisfied with their CBD product.

I just have a question. Are there any studies that show CBD oil will or may help with COPD?
Thanks

Last summer my daughter, who is a veterinarian, told me about CBD for our pets. She suggested I give it a try. I have now tried 6 different brands and was happy with the most recent product but then read about Lazarus products and also read reviews and watched some youtube videos and decided to try it...and also wanted to try your CBD balm. Thank you for all you are doing for everyone. PS...I am definitely a 'senior':)!

I bought some other company's CBD oil about 6 months ago, tried it and I did not get much if any relief. Then I started researching online and ran across Lazarus Naturals and it seemed like the most recommended brand that I could find. I ordered the High Potency CBD Tincture 3000mg and 40 CBD capusules and they arrived 2 days later. I started the oil right away, now 2 months later I can tolerate what little discomfort that is still there. I would say this is working for me. Tom

I first ordered the Sample Pack. I just ordered more of the tincture. I immediately noticed my mood had a significant change. For the 1st time in years, I was smiling, laughing, and generally less anxious. I definitely noticed when I ran out of it, too. I qualify for the assistance program, but, ordered it full price. I'll be applying for the discount before my next order. For the 1st time in the last few years, I am looking forward to spring/summer, getting out & doing things which I had lost interest in to the point of not wanting to leave my house. Even though life still throws its whammies, I am coping much better thanks to Lazarus Naturals!
