The Truth About CBD
CBD is found everywhere, from chocolate bars to pet treats, from face masks to moisturizers and bath bombs; and while CBD itself holds real medicinal promise, a Marketplace investigation has found hundreds of illegal CBD products for sale in a thriving Canadian black market. Going undercover, we found products are easily available and salespeople willing to make extravagant and illicit health claims that often ignore or avoid mention of negative interactions.
