Be aware when submitting to a drug test that CBD products have been causing positive results for cannabis. Hopefully someday the government will remove cannabis from being a dangerous drug.
21st century prohibition?
That CBD may cause positive cannabis test results which may in turn jeopardize your MMC. No shit Sherlock, who would have ever thunk it? Another reason I suppose for some to invest in a Whizzinator.

Gene, this is the “professional mariner forum”, I’m pretty sure 99% of these guys know the container of gummy bears with the weed leaf is a no go. Did you write this post so you could show off to your new “clients” ? How many naive people trying to get into the industry have you scammed out of 1300 bucks since your last bullshit post ?

75% of CBD products have a small amount of THC approximately 2% Pharmaceutical quality has up to 3% of THC. If you’re using it daily Several times a day you’re going to come up positive regardless of the threshold allowed by most labs. This guy went to quest there’s ways around it of course but that’s not something I would post

Support you in this matter. 
Are you confusing THC and CBD? CBD is not something that can get anyone high. My dog takes it for arthritis problems. There may be enough residual THC in some of it to trip you up on a drug test, but you would probably have to eat 10 pounds of the stuff to get buzzed.
Lol there are different grades from what I understand. The pharmaceutical grade seems to be an issue. It does work great on the dog. My dog is 14 years old and since he’s been on it a huge difference. Must be something to it!
Now even the dogs are stoners…what’s this world coming to?

I’ve seen a few news reports that CBDs sometimes have small amounts of THC in them, even if they claim not to. My PT suggested it; thanks, but no thanks. I like my job (most of the time). I don’t need to take the risk.
The issue isn’t getting high, it’s failing a whiz quiz.

Not really - CBD does not get you stoned, but even if it did my 15 year old dog needs all the help she can get. She has a hard time backing up now and just about backed right off the dock yesterday.
I said this here before, myself. There is no quality control requirement for these products. Cross contamination is an issue as well as shady vendors. Why risk it?

I was not suggesting anyone risk anything, but wanted to correct the impression people and dogs that use CBD products are just a bunch of stoners. I don’t use it myself, between the USCG and the FAA I really don’t need the hassle of getting a batch just contaminated enough to trip the drug test.

I never got that impression. My mom uses CBD oil for her arthritis and she does not get any sort of buzz off of it.
But My uncle is get rid from arthritis by using CBD oil slowly.
You don’t need a buzz to trip a drug test, they are very sensitive.
