Question of the Day: How do you normally pay for purchases in stores?
Anyone using natural alternative for anxiety ?

It could help but I think the point is that it’s risky. Not everyone is going to respond the same.
If OP’s family has to start with supplements, yeah this is kinda safe and does work. I experimented with it as a nootropic and had good results.

There is the misconception that these natural alternative products are safer. That is completely false. They are all drugs - no exceptions. The reason we prefer the S5 drugs (in this case) is because they are mapped and reliable, meaning we know what they going to do and how to manage their issues with great accuracy.
When it comes to CBD and THC it affects so many things in the body its hard to say what's its going to do. 9 times out of 10 with the CBD oils have been ineffective when patients have opted to try them in my experience. There is a lot of work to be done on these products and I think they not ready for first line use. I find it strange though here on the internet its this magic drug but in the field its useless.
You need to know what you doing otherwise things can get dangerous fast, for example Vitamin A in pediatrics is a dangerous thing. Overdosing a child with it can cause hypervitaminosis which in severe cases can increase pressure on the brain and damage them permanently. Yet vitamin A is a natural occurring substance and its easy to overdose.
Another one is the vape where the media flaunts horror stories about research that vaping causing popcorn lung but those formulations of nicotine fluid were made with methanol because its quite difficult to dissolve USP grade nicotine and since these products are unregulated are they even using USP grade chemicals ? no one checks.
hence proper medicine before alternative medicine always. Remember cyanide, mustard gas, opioids and cocaine are all natural

So a doc is better because they won`t recommend natural remedies, but at least you have someone to complain to when the doc`s chemicals did not work as planned.

Who says they dont recommend natural remedies. They still use salicylic acid / penicillin / opioids and so on. What they dont use is popular fashion BS
This definitely works for me. And it doesn’t give me any adverse effects, headaches etc.

Affron ,a saffron based product has been known to assist with anxiety.
one can find a few clinical trials and studies on Pubmed which show positive outcomes for further reading and investigation.

Dischem's own brand (Dischem Gold) also makes L-Theanine capsules.
It is sold in glass bottles.
It is at least three times cheaper.

I personally think CBD-only products don't do shiit. It's as good as anything homeopathic.

Some may need medical intervention in serious cases but this has worked wonders for me over the years, in addition to finding even something simple to achieve every day.

What concentrate level where you taking to come to this conclusion?
Imo if you're taking benzos before trying the other low hanging fruit you're risking drug dependency.

What is the strongest you get?
Other making me lethargic, I cannot say it does anything of significance. Not compared to different strains of regular weed and THC edibles.
I reckon CBD-only products achieve more as a moneymaking scheme than anything else.
