    HOW TO TALK

    WITH YOUR HEALTH


    CARE PROVIDER

    ou have probably spent hours of research on the benefits of cannabidiol (CBD) before deciding to try a highCBD hemp extract. Understand that most providers may not know about the benefits of CBD, or even about
    the endocannabinoid system. That doesnt mean they are not good providers. It is important to manage your
    expectations and respect your providers knowledge and position. If you appear reckless, your provider has the
    right to choose not to treat you.

    What if my provider is
    concerned with legality?
    The U.S. Agricultural Act of 2014 (also commonly
    referred to as the Farm Bill) includes a section
    on the Legitimacy of Industrial Hemp Research.
    Realm of Caring endorses hemp products that
    are Farm Bill compliant, with independent
    verification already completed by the Department
    of Agriculture. For reference, the full text of the bill
    is available on the Library of Congress website.

    What is industrial hemp and


    how is it defined in the Farm Bill?
    Industrial hemp is the non-psychoactive, lowdelta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration [THC]
    oilseed and fiber varieties of the plant Cannabis
    sativa. Hemp has absolutely no use as a recreational
    drug. Section 7606 of the Farm Bill defines
    industrial hemp as the plant Cannabis sativa L.
    and any part of such plant, whether growing or not,
    with a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration
    of not more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis.

    What if my provider doesnt


    know anything about CBD?
    Realm of Caring (ROC) is dedicated to educating
    providers and will even consult for patient care. Your
    provider can contact us at info@theroc.us or call 1-719347-5400. We have established a provider network
    with educational resources and current research
    updates. Please encourage your provider to sign up at
    www.theroc.us. Immediately upon registering, they
    will receive a providers guide to using cannabinoid
    products. This guide can also be downloaded from the
    client portal to give to your provider.
    Additionally, there are hundreds of peer-reviewed
    articles on CBD available at the National Institute
    of Health PubMed website. You and your provider
    can search their database for the keywords CBD or
    cannabidiol along with your condition or symptoms
    to view papers specific to your condition. We also
    have other research resources available through our
    client portal.
    Outside of Colorado there is question on legal
    interpretation of above law.

    What is the purpose of Section 7606?


    The U.S. House passed the hemp amendment to the Farm Bill in order to allow research to begin on industrial
    hemp and determine whether commercial production of hemp would be beneficial for American farmers and
    businesses.
