Well, hello, everybody, and welcome back. And if you are just tuning in with me for the very first time, it’s so nice to meet you. And I’m really glad you’re here with me today. I am your host, Heather Carey, nutritionist, chef, mom, and a woman who has been around the block with food. I want to open up about real food in relation to health, weight, and our bodies so you can make peace with what you eat. Hello everybody and welcome back. Today I had the opportunity to speak with Anessa Pano-Marovaita, who is the owner and founder of Nessa’s Hemp, a CBD company that sells very pure CBD. It’s actually CBDA I have learned. I’ve learned a lot on this. conversation I had with her today because I know how much confusion there is about supplements and You start taking them and you’re wondering why I’m even taking them in the first place and is this doing anything? so we had a really really in-depth talk about CBD because I know a lot of people have tried it at least I know that I have and Had questions so tune in and take a listen to my conversation with Anessa and get yourself educated on what you’re taking. Hey, everybody. I am with Anessa Panomarovaida. Did I pronounce that right?
Speaker #1
Yes, it is.
Speaker #0
Okay, thank you. It’s a long last name. She is the founder and CEO of Nessa’s Hemp, the world’s first ever full-spectrum CBDA oil. CBDA is created through a unique process that preserves all the healing compounds of the hemp plant. This promotes optimal healing and restores the body to its natural state. Inessa’s journey with CBD began five years ago when her mother was diagnosed with cancer and given six months to live. Heartbroken but determined, Inessa’s mission was to find natural ways to overcome her mother’s health condition. That is when she discovered that the hemp plant is known to be a miracle plant. She had met. with the leading CBD producers in the United States and realized that none of them had a high quality hemp product. So Anessa decided to start her own company. And after facing many challenges, she was finally able to create a product for her mother and subsequently other people in the world that is an effective alternative health solution. So Thank you for taking your time today, Anessa. I know you are incredibly busy, but I have a ton of questions about CBD, hemp, CBDA, all of those, there’s all those small words thrown around and the wellness industry. And I know that my listeners do too, because let’s face it, there’s always seems to be a product or supplement of the moment, offering that miracle and an answer to so many of our problems. I know a lot of my listeners might be healing from an illness. They’re trying to lose weight, increase their energy, get better moods, better sleep is huge, less brain fog. And we’re all looking for the answer. And all you have to do these days is just troll around TikTok or Instagram and you’ll discover thousands of so-called solutions. So I don’t take supplements. lightly. And I only take them when they are really well-researched and backed by science. And I recommend this to my clients too, and my listeners. So there’s just too much quackery out there that I’ve been intrigued with CBD. I’m really intrigued with it. And I’ve been intrigued for a while because although it seems to promise a million things, I think that you… And I kind of talked off air a little bit. There is some science behind it and some evidence that it does work. So let’s get into your story and how you became just invested, I think, emotionally, financially, you know, this is your business out in the CBD world and the hemp industry to the point where you even started your own business, which I know has been a labor of love for you.
Speaker #1
Yeah, I think understanding. why I started is very important. So thank you so much for starting the right question, because I never wanted to be a CBD business owner. And especially at that time, I did not know that the whole world is going to be against me, except the people. So I would never start this company years ago. But now that I’m so invested in my whole, my whole passion and love and everything for the world. So, yeah, so I would like to really, um, clarify so many things and and what i’m about to clarify is actually evidence produced by every country science uh conspiracy science or like mainstream science whatever you want to come up with no one can deny these facts that i’m about to share and again thank you so much for allowing me to share these facts because i’m not allowed to speak about these facts on a mainstream media So they don’t want people to know what’s in their bodies and what they’re capable of. So yeah, that would be great. So first of all, to make all the confusion to go away, I would like to explain one and most important aspect. What we’re going to be talking about is your own endocannabinoid system. Your own endocannabinoid system is not something you chose to have just like your liver, kidney, your receptors in the body it’s just part of you you’re born with it so that your own endocannabinoid system was discovered about 40 years ago a research and science scientist from israel dr rafael mashulam who is he is the one who discovered human endocannabinoid system and world was very excited to look into his discovery and across the planet every university every researcher was so excited what is this new organ what is this new receptor that we have inside of us that never we never been taught about it we never even learned in medical schools doctors don’t even know about it and that’s exactly what it is it’s your endocannabinoid system and what that system does as science is proving these specific facts right now that system is producing on cannabinoids it’s it’s basically it’s almost exact same cannabinoid as in the plant and we’ll talk about the plant in a second because there’s big differences in the plant that your body produces so it’s almost the same cannabinoid and what these cannabinoids are responsible for is to control all other systems in your body including your central nervous system So when you’re born and then you’re like a baby and you’re a child, you’re producing your own cannabinoids and your body’s full and your body’s operating great. Your spleen, your brain, your moods, your everything. But what happens is when you get older, or in my terminology, when you get exposed to too much stress, toxins, parasites, mold, you’ll start losing your own endocannabinoid system production. And from the moment that production reduces the number and it keeps reducing it, it’s called aging in the regular world, you start losing the system. Automatically, it affects hundreds and hundreds of functionalities in your body because that one system was responsible to control your entire central nervous system, your brain, your vision, your hair growth, your spleen, your gut, your everything. so that system the main guy in the body is affected that means the rest of the guys in the body will be affected so with that being said that itself is a fact it’s not something i discovered i just learned when i was going through saving my mother uh process and tried to figure out how i can balance this woman what the specific mechanisms i can trigger where it triggers the rest of mechanisms in the body. This is all of us have it and if we empower that system we can be healthy again right maybe majority of the country people will be getting off the pills if they just empower that endocannabinoid system so but what plants has to offer on the market today has nothing to do with original plant that we actually had for thousands of years including jesus was using his biblical uh to heal his people And I promise you, Jesus wasn’t extracting some kind of type of CBD or engineering high levels of THC in a laboratory and making some genetics going on. None of that stuff was happening. So the real plant that was happening in our lives and supporting our systems as superfood, the hemp plant has nothing to do with the current plant on the market. Those are two different things.
Speaker #0
So I just want to get clear on this, just so we’re like on the same page. So we have this endocannabinoid system in our bodies, right? That was just discovered not that long ago, only about 40 years ago. And it helps the central nervous system, right? It empowers the central nervous system. So with time though, as we get older and we age and we have stress and we… start to deplete the system?
Speaker #1
Yes.
Speaker #0
Is that what you’re saying? Okay. And then, so then the, so then using CBD oil helps to replenish.
Speaker #1
Absolutely.
Speaker #0
But there’s, but there’s different types and different grades and some are produced like in not so great ways, right? I mean, so, so that’s, okay. So that’s what you discovered is that. right so then your mom gets sick with cancer and you go on a mission to like discover this and then and then and then you find out that there’s a whole mess of different qualities of cbd and
Speaker #1
no there’s so much as you say like there’s so much that’s exactly what happened i simply knew that supplement industry is not regulated and i also knew that cannabis industry barely scratched the surface. to be regulated so i knew my job is to figure out the highest quality uh cannabinoids to empower my system my mom’s system and the people i was helping systems because as i said there’s a huge definition and there’s big differences right you can one cbd product can harm you out one can heal you so which one is which one but that being said i simply i simply wasn’t trusting anybody and i picked like highest quality marketed companies in the country. And I actually made a phone call. So I said, can I one day visit you guys to check your quality, to know things for myself? And I literally backpacked myself. I went, I jumped on the plane, started off in California, went to Oregon. I went all over the United States. Anywhere we’re growing, actually, these plants. And I said, I want to know what’s in it. Don’t show me lab results from three years ago. Show me the lab results, what exactly you’re currently producing right now, not something you’ve done a really nice job years ago and you’re kind of counting on it. Long story short is I tested the soils. I tested with my own laboratories these finished products. I tested water system. I tested everything. And I even tested, I’m not going to say names because I don’t want to sound negative. but i just can tell you this i met number one whole foods producers in a produce world okay and i was clear able to clarify they’re actually having in parts per billion of metals so with that being said how this is okay and i was raising this question i was raising this question why we have these metals in it and they said oh we’re still organic certified as a pet organic label doesn’t mean the end of the world i mean if the organic still allows you in parts per billion to mold metals or any other toxins i’m not okay with organic certification we need to change a new and create a new level of certification so long story short is i was just in a vicious cycle and then special colorado they said oh we can’t escape heavy metals because the whole soil in Colorado is lower than the heavy metals. So, and the trick is if you want to go hemp plant as a medicine, you have to be extremely careful. And this is why. Hemp plant is actually a soil cleaner. It does clean the soil. That means it grabs every possible toxin from the air. from far away and sucks in that one root of those roots and actually holds in it so it’s like a sponge for the toxins so if you grab every single toxin from the air and also soil then you really have to be careful the way you grow these plants for medicinal purposes because it’s gonna be in the plant so it’s very complicated process right so when i saw that it really bothered me because I knew to empower endocannabinoid system is essential. People were empowered the system today, probably half the country would be off the bills almost immediately because all that they need is just missing few cannabinoids here and here and they can function again. So what happened is in seeing that that single one company was actually doing what they say they’re doing, that really got me upset. So I saw the major disconnect, took me two weeks of travel. I spent tens of thousands of dollars on laboratory testing because each lab I tested, I found positive for mold, mildew, bacteria, mycotoxins, you name it, all those dangerous things. And I said, wow, more tests, more toxins I found. This is getting really interesting. And that’s the moment that I realized I’m in this whole thing by myself. But before I really wanted to kind of call myself for this big mission, I said, let me confirm with the world leaders if I’m. missing something here if i’m imagining or i’m being conspiracists here so what’s going on so i just decided to contact this the noble prize winner actually from israel who’s the one discovered this human endocannabinoid system it took me three months to get the professor on the call and i told him i said dr rafael i said i see the big issue everybody sells cbd cbd is a drug Plus it’s loaded with these toxins. and i said only god knows how much it empowers the android can have an oed system and i said while the cbda it’s not even talked about it i said nobody’s even no like they don’t even know what i’m talking about so and he agreed that there’s a problem and he at that time he couldn’t help me to find one single company who actually does the cbda or promotes the cbda and he said if you ever come across one please let me know i would be interested to talk this to these people and and i realized that i’m on the mission by myself and and also supported that if i’ll discover or found the company or develop myself that i’ll be doing the right thing and that was enough for me to really um kind of figure out how can make this happen so that’s a really um good point i mean it sounds like you were on a mission and
Speaker #0
i mean and amazingly you got access to a lot of big people and these companies and found out a lot and did a ton of research. So you just mentioned though, CBDA. And I know I said that at the beginning in your bio. Can you explain, because I think this is a huge, probably source of confusion, hemp oil, CBD oil, you mentioned CBDA. I know that’s what you sell. Tell me the difference between each of these, because I don’t now. myself. And I know that people would be really interested in knowing that.
Speaker #1
That’s the reason why I love to educate people on this. Even sometimes if I have to even pay for, I’m still going to educate because the misinformation is so big where, again, you’re going to realize that in a minute. So I will explain exactly the whole plant’s structure. And in less than a minute, you’re going to realize what’s going on. The whole cannabis industry i mean hemp or cannabis are goes under one category under one name only it’s called cannabis industry if even if you have cbd thc no thc it doesn’t matter what you sell if it’s somehow hemp related it’s going to be cannabis industry then this cannabis industry actually is divided in two different legs one is hemp plants are actually contained there or supposed to let me let me correct myself They’re supposed to contain very low levels of THC.
Speaker #0
Which is the psychoactive property of cannabis. I just want to put that up there in case people don’t know. Yeah,
Speaker #1
exactly. And THC is the psychoactive compound that actually is going to make you high, can make you dizzy, cause even nausea. Like a lot of people don’t like it. I personally don’t support it. Never used it myself. Completely against that. And there’s reasons why. So the… in the hemp plants we have very low bear or supposed to have very low bare minimum levels of thc which is not supposed to affect your brain and higher levels of cbd right and in the cannabis industry because you remember it’s divided in two legs so one is hemp one is cannabis cannabis so the cannabis all what they focus is medical marijuana like high levels thc only basically All what you do, you get high all day long. And now they have Delta 9s. I mean, they have all kinds of Frankensteins. They re-engineered from THC. They created multiple versions of a lot of edibles and things that’s going to make you high. So long story short, it’s an extremely unhealthy world, okay? What I’m focusing on is, and what we had as humans in the human history for thousands of years, they always had a hemp plant. But the hemp plant in nature or naturally does not have any kind of type of THC. If you’re going to take the hemp plant, especially when we had like years ago, 100 years ago, before we start genetically reengineered these plants, we had barely any minimum levels of THC in an original hemp plant. But then if you’re going to take that hemp plant from the soil, And if you’re going to look at the hemp plant structure and study what’s in that hemp plant, there is no THC and there is no CBD. So then what it is? It’s a THCA, it’s acetic cannabinoid THCA, and it’s CBDA. That’s original God’s version. That’s the one we had thousands of years ago, but not re-engineering. But what happened now, because it’s such a huge industry, and it’s creating a wave, and they want to make this part of medical stream, what pharmaceuticals decided to do, they decided to take original plants like CBDA, THCA, and turn into the second version. It’s called CBD and THC. Those two versions, CBD and THC, is actually patentable. From the moment you can make a patent, which is they did, Now CBD is patented as a drug for epilepsy, and it completely belongs to the pharmaceutical industry, and that means the property belongs to them. And most people don’t even know about CBDA. And CBDA is not even, you can’t patent, it’s nature. So that’s the reason why industry is not regulated today, because they don’t know how to overcome this big gap. Because if they’re going to… continue patent and keep the patents under cbd we have to make cbda completely legal because it’s like spinach can you make spinach illegal no it’s like and but now we agreeing to make this medicine that just empowers your body and if half of americans or have the country went on this medicine half the country would be off the pills we basically would lose pharmaceutical market so It’s the biggest battle ever seen in pharmaceutical industry is the CBD because they don’t know how to change this. They don’t know how to play around because that’s why the regulations are still not in place because pharmaceuticals wants to take over and they want to control the market. At this point, science are so loud and clear screaming and say, hey, we need this. This is essential to us by not making this legal. It’s a crime against humanity because our body is producing. And we need this in order to survive, in order to stay alive, in order to be healthy. And now it’s not regulated. So everyone sees what’s going on. But that’s why it’s still on hold. And that’s why these companies are not countable. And nobody takes action towards safe and effective products because it’s like Wild West. It’s like, you know, it’s like you do whatever you want. It’s like same thing as… you know you take advantage of situation and that’s what the business owners do most cbd producers they just sell only god knows what lab results are not real and and there’s a so the huge differences first of all you never want to take one isolate compound you want the whole plant which is a full spectrum and you never want to take cbd or thc you want to always take Original Gods Version, CBDA. THCA, CBNA, CBGA, all those hundreds of different compounds that are in the plant in acidic version.
Speaker #0
Okay, so what I’m hearing you say is CBDA is the most pure version of… CBD. Once it then turns into CBD, then it becomes processed or, you know, then it’s, there’s, it’s in the supplement industry kind of, and it’s a little unregulated. Am I, is that correct?
Speaker #1
What happens is the whole industry itself is unregulated. If it’s cannabis, CBD or CBD, anything you mentioned in cannabis related, THC, whatever you want, it’s completely unregulated. There’s no regulations. It’s complete wild west. But what happened is, one thing we know for a fact, if you go on smart Google, smart Google is going to tell you that CBD is a compound patented by Food and Drug Administration as a drug for epilepsy. It’s called Epidolix. So that means if it’s patented, it must be not natural. So if it’s not natural, then what it is? So the way they do it, they take raw, beautiful hemp plants if they’re grown healthy. because it takes extra care to grow them healthy because they’re naturally like a sponge for toxins so you have to be like as i said took us two years just to get the soil ready so um you know so you have to take this raw plant and you have to actually use solvents heat crazy extractions that are unhealthy for the plant and the human in order to turn CBDA into CBD. And those extract processes are very harmful. So you have to be very careful with those. And that’s exactly what the whole country sells as of today. And that’s why they don’t want me to talk about human endocannabinoid system, which is your own organ. Today, as of today, it’s illegal for me to go on the mainstream media and educate people on their… I can educate about your liver. I can educate about your kidneys. But I cannot educate about your own endocannabinoid system.
Speaker #0
You’re able to then sell CBDA, right? Is that okay? And, but you’re selling it online. So it’s okay for you to sell it, but you can’t speak of it publicly.
Speaker #1
Yeah, that’s what I said. It’s so weird because even some states are still not regulated. for example let’s see or hemp growing which is hemp as you remember it’s below three percent of thc high levels of cbd or cbda in my world um what happens that industry is regulated it’s like they allow you to grow but they don’t allow you to sell in each state only certain states majority of states are approved to actually receive their cbd products or cbda or any kind of type of hemp product But certain states are still not approved. So federally, it’s illegal to do that. But in the state law, in the majority of the states, I think it’s 49 states approved or 48 states approved, it’s legal. And there’s no regulations how to make these products to be healthy. So that means if you don’t care and if you care about mass production, So you can put whatever you want to put in the bottle, label as a CBD, and you’re going to sell it. And nobody’s going to put you in a jail for that. You’ll be good to go.
Speaker #0
So it sounds like this. So CBD, right. Anyone can sell it. It’s anyone can promote it as wellness. And and and it’s but it’s not in its pure form of CBD. CBD is really what you want if you’re going to use a CBD product.
Speaker #1
Absolutely. Okay. CBD is exactly what you want because it’s the natural version and it’s been shown right now. Science finally waking up towards CBDA. That is a thousand times stronger. It’s way more effective. Actually works way better than CBD, like a drug for epilepsy. For example, they’re saying CBDA is way more effective for epilepsy. But you keep in mind, you really don’t use these cannabinoids when you really have a problem. You. welcome to use them just to stay yourself and keep yourself healthy. Because you’re already producing in your body, and especially if you buy the CBD products, your company you’re buying from must produce results, lab results in parts per billion from microtoxins. If they don’t, you probably don’t want to talk to these people.
Speaker #0
So this might be a silly question. Why doesn’t then the supplement or the FDA who approves CBD as a…
Speaker #1
drug for epilepsy why don’t they use cbda because as i said like even doctors they’re not educated about about they’re not even allowed to promote there’s this it’s a huge war going on inside this industry right now some doctors recognizing the no effect but they’re not allowed to push it then while the pharmaceutical industry is trying for you not to know about hey i can have my own cbda and it’s supposed to be as a superfood and it’s not supposed to be regulated because it’s part of my body is essential to me to me survive just like air water and food so they want this information to be suppressed as much as possible so they can control the market again on like on everything else on every drug they actually put on the market So they want to push this into the drug category, whereas someone like myself saying, no, this is a superfood, should be in the grocery stores and people’s gardens and everywhere. Everyone should have access to it.
Speaker #0
Well, so let’s talk about what your CBDA products do for you and help. Because like I said, back at the beginning, a lot of my clients, at least, they’re looking for energy, weight loss.um, brain fog, you know, just a whole host of different things. And I know that, you know, you can read about just, I’m not talking about your products, but like if whatever I’ve like read, you know, like it helps everything, like it helps a million things. So let’s talk about your product then specifically. And, um, because I know also that it’s an investment, right. To take CBD oil. And I am a big proponent of… knowing the why, like I’ve taken things before, I’ll take them for a little while. And then I start to like, why am I taking this? I don’t really like, I’ve not, you know, I’m not feeling any miracle or like, so why am I taking it? And, and then, and it’s kind of expensive. And so then I probably have given up, you know, but I probably have not taken good quality products either. So tell me about your product specifically. I know, you know, that you’ve talked about It helps us sleep and better digestion and moods and chronic pain. And is there evidence behind that besides the testimonials and, you know, just firsthand experiences like that?
Speaker #1
The biggest evidence was actually when two years ago, when COVID news came out from Oregon University, it was a research. and it was done on cbda and cbga so those two specific compounds were able to block receptors to actually spike protein to enter your body uh we have a proven natural solution that is safe and can be very effective to prevent you from getting covered and that was cbda and i was on the mainstream media all day long giving interviews because we are only one cbd product And that’s the moment where CBD industry decided all figured out how to go after CBDA. Because wait a minute, like there is a CBDA. We need to figure out what we’re going to do here. So since then, we have science start finally happening into the CBDA world. But it definitely has been shown also scientifically. It helps with epilepsy way more than CBD is way more effective. So if you have like a chronic illness, especially like epilepsy, also helps. One of our white papers tells how it helps if you have cancer and if you have major nausea. It helps with nausea, your serotonin levels, regulates your central nervous system. That’s another big scientific rule for CBDA. So, but the most important, we need to focus. Most people obviously, you know, so I have an element because I have a menstrual cramping or have mood swings or have something going on. It’s not about that one specific spot in the body. It’s about systematic. And that’s what our products does. They really help systematically. So they regulate the whole system. So whatever these imbalances. So sometimes people come to me and say, you know, I was able to get pregnant. It’s like, what? like what do you mean you were able to get pregnant like oh i tried for nine years i couldn’t get pregnant and i just used your product for three months and there you go i’m pregnant right now it’s like what so all what she was missing she always had a mood swings but she had actual hormonal issues so but the product really helped her to balance that endocannabinoid system and that endocannabinoid system to care for everything else in the body so it’s really for each person i No. people are reporting for inflammation it’s absolutely a miracle for inflammation you can have as much as inflammation you want if you take nassos you literally see results i don’t know immediately like letting people see you feel better some people 90 seconds some people in 90 minutes but if you take the proper dose you’re definitely going to feel results also people are reporting the vision situation mood swings mood swings is big Each person, you would be surprised reporting different benefits because, again, it goes back to that systematic. When you fix the system, then automatically whatever falls for each person differently, right? For example, right now, the science coming up and saying CBDA, this is completely new. Actually, I didn’t read the full article. It’s actually helping to exchange your microbiome in your gut, actually be more effective and more supportive. you I said I always know that people actually have gut issues when they take our product, they’re reporting you to go in the bathroom more often, right? So I know flushes their bacteria, I know regulates their gut, but again I don’t want to focus on specific thing, I want to focus more like systematic. What is the whole system? And the system is broken, you have multiple elements. If you fix the system, all the elements automatically fall in place.
Speaker #0
So that makes sense to me, right? That you’re not just targeting like specific symptoms, like I just get headaches every day. But it’s really working on an overall system. And then that in turn will fix things, right? That maybe you didn’t even think of. That makes a lot of sense to me. I think this is another question. You know, people like start taking some of these supplements and then they’re on them for like a period of time. How long do you need to be taking? with CBDA? And I mean, is this a lifelong commitment? And when do you start seeing like a difference in your health?
Speaker #1
The reminder is when we started this conversation, I was sharing how you make your own cannabinoids. So for example, maybe you have more than I do of your own production still going on. I don’t know how much left, maybe 10%, 20% compared when you’re born. So each person does require slightly possibly different dose because each person does have a different endocrinology system and different balance in that system right it’s like going in the bank account how much you’re going to use so we want to trigger that system that’s all what we want and some people need some people actually can trigger immediately and they really do we have miracle stories where people couldn’t walk and even get up from the bed for years and within one week is running on facetime live streaming facebook and showing the world he’s running again so that was like 90 second reaction that was the fastest i’ve ever seen covered nine minutes from nine minutes to nine hours i’ve seen where people see results but each person keep in mind is a little bit different so you might take a minute maybe an hour or maybe a week to see results make sure you always adjust the dose i always tell people We’ve never seen product not producing results. We’ve seen people taking the wrong dose because they think the suggested dose is for everybody. What if you have too many cannabinoids? So actually taking higher dose is not good for you because you still have enough of your own production. So you just need to fire up your own system. So after you do that, I tell people all the time, you should definitely stay minimum three months. And after three months, you should be able to maintain your own cannabinoid system production because you power your system again. You have enough of cannabinoids to run yourself. And if you feel like you need to get off, then you’re welcome to, and you’re still going to be able to sustain your own cannabinoid system.

So minimum three months. And it sounds like the dose is personal to everybody and you sort of play around with it.
Speaker #1
Absolutely. And some people, for example, if they’re taking for sleep, saying, Elsa, I tried, or for pain, whatever the pain is, keep in mind, any kind of type of pain. And if you don’t feel an effect, especially when you’re in pain and in chronic pain, that means you’re taking the wrong dose because the product definitely works. It really, really does. So I tell people, adjust the dose. One of our actual team members, she was telling me, and I said, I love the company. I love the mission. And she said, no matter how hard I try to love this product, I can’t love the product. I said, don’t say that. And she’s like, why? It’s just like… I’m taking this for pain and I’m reading everybody gets better in pain except me. I said, Natalia, you’re taking the wrong dose. I can guarantee that. It’s like I’m taking half dropper in the morning and half at night. I said, can you just do me a favor and take the full dropper right now as we’re speaking? She does that within 20 minutes while we’re still on the call, her pain is finally going away. So all we have to do is trigger a little bit of dosage and she started feeling immediately. So while the whole month And she’s saying, it doesn’t do anything for me.

You needed to up her dose a little bit. Okay. So you take it twice a day, maybe, or sometimes three times a day, or it really is just dependent on, you have to be your own advocate for it. You know, your own.
Speaker #1
You can’t overtake the product. What happens is, yeah, you’re absolutely right. You can, product stays about 12, 10 hours in the system. Unless it’s needed. If it’s not needed, you’re definitely good to take just in the morning and at night. But if you have some chronic situation, surgery, pain, cancer, anxiety attacks, nonstop epilepsy, you’re welcome to take during the daytime.

OK, well, I have a bottle of your CBDA and I am going to be an experiment for you, too. So I’m going to take it. I have a. decent amount of chronic pain. So this would be a good experiment for me to see if that helps, amongst some other things. So I will report back to you for sure. and let you know how it goes. But I’m feeling excited to experiment with that and see how it works. And so this has been a great conversation. I feel like I have learned a lot. And I want my listeners to definitely seek you out and learn more. So how can people get in touch with you?
Speaker #1
The easiest way is to really go on Nessus Hemp, N-E-S-S-N-E-S-S, hemp, H-E-M-P.com. So if you go on nestlesham.com, you can actually contact us through the customer service. We have a great support and you’re welcome to send us an email. But as I said, there’s so much we do. So anything you have, any questions, you’re welcome to send to us and we’ll get back to you for sure. Another thing is if you decided to buy the product anywhere else, I highly suggest you to each bottle should be numbered. Like on the bottom or somewhere with specific code. for that bottle and that code should match laboratory results on that specific code and that specific date if you can get that laboratory result for your specific indentify bottle and your lab results should say free from all kinds of mold bacterias metals heavy metals like you name it like hundreds and thousands of toxins the wv test you probably don’t want to put this product in your mouth. And another thing is make sure you require that brand or that company or that store owner to test their products to call ACS laboratories. They’re the largest cannabis testing laboratory that does not fake lab results. Most companies, if I want to test this product, if I’ll send it to companies, I don’t want to say names again, say, hey. I want to be free from metals on my final report. I want to be free from mold and I want to be high levels of CBD and no THC. And that’s exactly what they’re going to give me on the report. I just need to pay $150 extra. And that’s what the laboratory is going to give me. There’s no regulations. So it’s only one laboratory does not fake lab results. It’s called ACS Laboratory in Florida.
