I have no opinion on CBD oil, I don't know what the body of studies or evidence exists as yet, have no personal experience, but I have heard positive anecdotal stories. I am open minded on it.

But my understanding (and maybe the dispute here is about the definition) of homeopathy is that it is the practice of using highly diluted (to the point on non-existent) substances as per the NHS definition here: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/homeopathy/

That is not my understanding of how CBD oil is used?

You're on the wrong thread, there's a homepathy one on the Covid sub-forum. Homeopaths claimed in March that they'd cure covid. They seem to have failed.

CBD oil isn't homeopathic, you've made the same mistake as Albion Dan. The process of taking something very bad and diluting it until it basically doesn't exist is homeopathy, a separate process to natural medicine, and one known to most people as "drinking water".

correct, CBD has nothing to do with homeopathy, one takes a very considerable amount of the active molecule. its an interesting alternative medicine, seems to work for some, though with a dubiously large range of ailments covered (by coincidence ailments that conventional treatment struggle with). my favorite is claims to help depression while not being psychoactive.

Used to love Mystic Meg and her star turn on the National Lottery when it was a national TV event watched religiously by millions every Saturday night. Russell Grant is one of my heroes also.
