Is CBD a miracle healing compound, all hype, or somewhere in between? Prevention examines the CBD phenomenon- what it is, its health benefits and how to decide if CBD is right for you.
Nelson Pena and Scott Meyer have been helping consumers understand
complex health-care information for more than 30 years. Pena has
been a longtime contributor to leading consumer health media
brands, including Prevention, Women's Health, and Men's Health, and
has helped create health and wellness content for organizations
such as Johns Hopkins Health, the National Academy of Sports
Medicine, and the Prevention Cancer Foundation. Meyer, the longtime
editor of Whole Foods Market magazine, has been the editor-in-chief
of Organic Gardening and the author of two books on Cannabis
growing and culture.
Prevention is the world's most established healthy lifestyle brand.
For more than 60 years, it has delivered authoritative, trusted
information and authentic lifestyle advice that inspires,
challenges and leads readers to love their whole life, from
nutrition to food, medicine to mood and exercise to the
environment.
"Prevention’s CBD & You is the ultimate guide for anyone who takes
CBD or is thinking of trying it. It puts the latest information in
your hands: You’ll learn how to identify safe CBD products, what
the research says about which health conditions it can be used
for—and whether it’s right for you."
—Mehmet Oz, M.D., Attending Surgeon, New York Presbyterian/Columbia
University
"Peña & Meyer have written a highly informative, readable, and
even-handed book that deftly weaves in history and science with
down-to-earth consumer health practicalities and concerns for all
things CBD."
—Sunil Aggarwal, M.D., Ph.D., Co-founder and Co-Director
of the Advanced Integrative Medical Science Institute
"Science-based and informative, CBD and You delivers as promised,
providing personal tips and a realistic perspective. In addition to
evaluating the state of the art regarding this age-old form of
natural healing, authors Pena and Meyer review CBD's fascinating
history. Cutting through the current hype about CBD's potential,
this brief but comprehensive overview also suggests where this
current trend may be heading in the coming years."
—Susan Krauss Whitbourne, Professor Emerita of Psychological and
Brain Sciences, University of Massachusetts Amherst
"In this Prevention magazine–branded introduction, Peña and Meyer,
both longtime health editors, offer background on CBD chemistry,
public health policy, and why the compound has so much buzz in the
wellness space. [It includes] suggestions for when and how to use
CBD, and a buyer’s guide that distinguishes a tincture from a
potable make clear that this is an above-board health title rather
than a surreptitious dorm-room read."
—Publishers Weekly
