Q:I have a question about the CBD oil fad. What is Dr. Franz position on the use of these? Ans: I have not yet researched this in depth. BUT I can tell you that I have numerous patients using it with positive results. Like any plant based medicine this is a wonderful treatment when used appropriately. Like any medicine plant or pharmaceutical, when it is abused there are consequences. I have patients with seizures, pain, autism that have responded beautifully. It works with the body. It also works on symptoms- and symptom relief is wonderful! BUT it is better if we find the root cause and then heal completely so there are no symptoms. We continue to recommend BODY TYPING, Homeopathy, and Chinese Medicine to do exactly that. I DO support the use of CBD oil as I have not found any negative response or outcome from its use. Thanks for asking! We love helping improve the health of your family. Dr Franz
