11 Back to CBD at Wegmans…
After pondering the CBD display for several moments, you pick up
a bottle of CBD oil that, among other things, claims to boost
immunity. You are interested in taking this product, but you initially
regard the claims on the label with some skepticism. You decide to
do your own research to see if there is good reason to believe that
ingesting CBD oil regularly will reduce illness. Which source is most
likely to contain the most accurate information?
