Hi all

I have had a few queries about the Elixinol CBD Hemp Oil so I thought I should add a few more details here of my experience to date.
I first tried the small bottle, what I would call the Elixinol 'test' size, the 300mg bottle. It is far cheaper than the lareger '3600' bottle but the concentration is much weaker and you need to take more than you would with the '3600'. In my case, three times as much as what I take now with the larger bottle.

This is the smaller bottle - 300gm. It lasted maybe a week and a half. I tried both the natural and peppermint flavoured varieties. The natural tastes a bit like seaweed, the peppermint is very strong but I prefer it over the natural taste.
The large '3600' is still going, I have been taking it for over two months now and I'm guessing it will see me through August. It does cost more but you need far less. 

You'll find more information on the Elixinol products here;

In terms of it being shipped to Australia, I have had no problems. Australia Post have delivered each time. It comes wrapped in bubblewrap and in an Australia Post bag. No forms to sign and no hassle at all. The last one arrived in about a week from purchasing.

There are other groups here in Australia making CBD Hemp Oil, I have yet to try them. 'CBD Oil Australia' is one that looks good, you'll find them here;

The product is expensive but when the benefits are proven to be so immense then the cost can be excused. I do think the 3600 is good value for money. Elixinol also has a consultant doctor, Dr Blair, who is very responsive to questions about dosage and helping you understand the benefits it may give. You can find the Elixinol Hemp Oil on a few other Australian websites now but they charge more so be care and make sure you don't pay more than you should. Having only used Elixinol I can't comment on another CBD Hemp oil, there are a lot in the USA but this is the only company I have found to date that can ship to Australia.
  As I noted in my previous post, my inflammation reading is down and I do attribute this to the CBD Hemp Oil. Has it removed every ache in my body, no. I don't know that anything can. But I do believe it is assisting with my health, less inflammation, less 'brain fog', great clarity of thought. 

CBD Hemp Oil is not medical marijuana. There is a lot of confusion here about medical marijuana and CBD Hemp Oil. The CBD Hemp Oil contains no THC compound, the stuff that can give you the 'high'. Medical marijuana has both THC and CBD in varying percentages. The THC is used for pain relief and when taken properly can have excellent results for chronic pain sufferers. 

Any questions feel free to comment or contact me via email.
