101 CBD owner, Justin Benton, is interviewed by Alex from the In My Grow Show talking about some restrictive legislation affecting hemp farmers in Ventura County that could go into effect very soon. The basics are that homeowners in the Moorpark, CA area complained about the smell of nearby hemp farms in the end of 2019 and spurred legislation to try and limit farmers’ ability to grow hemp within 1/2 mile of any school or residence. This restriction will make Ventura County the most restricted county in California in regards to hemp farming.

Here’s how you can help the hemp farmers. Call these district supervisors and come to the meeting tomorrow, Feb 25 at 3pm in the Ventura Government center on Victoria.  

• Kelly Long District 3 (805 654 2276)
• Linda Parks District 2 (805 214 2510)
• Steve Bennett (805 654 2703)

Tell them we want a 45 day extension on the 1/2 mile restriction on hemp farmers in Ventura County so we can figure out the details on how best to move forward that benefits farmers and residents alike.

We urge you to call your congressperson regarding issues that mean something to you. Here at 101 CBD we are devoted to spreading the knowledge and healing of this amazing plant! In this attempt, our owner is constantly striving to get CBD fully accepted by all cities, states and municipalities. He seeks to obtain knowledge from leaders in pursuit of the same end goal. Justin recently reached out to Congresswoman Julia Brownley regarding the legalization of CBD. Brownley was gracious enough to send this letter in return: 

Whether it’s regarding hemp laws or any other points of interest, please call your congressperson and let your voice be heard. They listen and must act on the interests of their constituents.

A medicinal cannabis study conducted in Israel was recently published in the well-known medical journal, Neurology, examining the overall effect of medical cannabis therapy on children diagnosed with autism. The results were staggering, showing up to 80% improvement when used in replacement of conventional drugs. A handful of Chemists, breeders, and growers have completely snowballed the expansion of CBD strains and medicines giving hope to the numerous families affected by autism. Though we see the results every day, we need more medicinal cannabis studies on children with autism so the world understands we can heal these children naturally.

Dr. Adi Aran of Jerusalem’s Shaare Zedek Hospital lead a 7 month study that treated 60 children with elevated CBD oils (20% CBD and 1% THC). After the study, parents were asked to characterize their child’s condition and answer questions based on changes they’ve seen in behavior, communication and anxiety levels. 80% of Parents reported a decrease in problematic behaviors and an increase in communication, with 62% reporting profound improvements. Although, one-third of the study participants began with no anxiety, still 40% reported significant decrease in anxious behavior and levels.

As Israel has spearheaded cannabis research, Aran has just as well pioneered cannabinoid therapy for Autism research. Beginning his project in 2017 and testing 120 children on the spectrum, Dr. Adi Aran launched the first study of its kind worldwide. This was made possible by the funding and progressive approach Israeli government has for Cannabis research. With word of these medicinal cannabis studies on children with autism getting out, a handful of smaller studies have been conducted in other countries leading to promising results and leaving us hopeful that doctors will continue to dive further into studies on the use of medical cannabis.
