    One-In-Seven Americans Use CBD, According To A New Gallup Survey

    Federal regulations haven’t been issued for CBD yet, but that’s not stopping Americans from utilizing the cannabis compound, according to a survey released by Gallup on Wednesday.

    In fact, one-in-seven Americans (14 percent) report using some form of CBD, primarily for therapeutic purposes.

    The poll, which involved phone interviews with more than 2,500 adults from June 19-July 12, illustrates the wide appeal of CBD nationwide since the 2018 Farm Bill was approved in December, federally legalizing hemp and its derivatives like cannabidiol.

    Though young adults and people living in the West are the most likely to use CBD (20 and 21 percent, respectively), people from all demographics and regions are evidently partaking. Almost one-in-10 individuals 65 or older use CBD, for example. And 13 percent of people from the South reported using the non-intoxicating ingredient, compared to 11 percent in both the Midwest and East.

    Gallup also asked respondents about what they use CBD for and found that vast majority of individuals take it for medical purposes. Forty percent said they use CBD for pain, 20 percent for anxiety, 11 percent for sleep, eight percent for arthritis, fiver percent for headaches and five percent for stress.

    I know of a couple of people that even gave up opiates with both CBD and THC, which is what I personally use, it's a 1600mg CBD/100 mg THC tincture that works amazing and doesn't get you too high(subjective, there's no such thing to me).

    At which point will Americans realize that creating an unaccountable institution that is able to pass its liability on to tax-payers is immoral and attracts sociopaths?

    It seems to be popular with young people. Almost everyone at the bar uses CBD oil and the people who don't are older - me, the owners, and the kitchen manager.

    I see the reverse in my area, although I'm also not using an extremely small sample as in your case. There is no certain age group that uses it here, it's anyone and everyone. Same with the customers at the dispensaries, and I would argue my evidence is not anecdotal, these aren't just personal use visits, I also occasionally deliver product or pick up money from several different places in a 120 mile "radius"(up and down I-25).

    I see more "mom and dad" and grandma in the dispensaries, than I do hippie types, they just usually grow their own anyway.
