This is a real story from one of our followers who has tried low-dosing cannabis.

 

I went through surgical menopause at 50 when my ovaries were removed. I realized that as long as I was stress-free, I could hold off the main symptoms of menopause. If I did have a stress-related situation, I would begin to feel an anxiety at a level that I had never had before. The anxiety would trigger other symptoms that made me anti-social and angry. I don’t normally take aspirin and I began trying over-the-counter drugs for relaxation, but they made me sleepy.

I was recommended Kiva’s Petra Mints and it was exactly the right amount to ease my mental and physical anxieties. The mint had no aftertaste and I didn’t feel sleepy or hungry – just very relaxed with a good mindset. I was able to stay focused.

I so appreciate the work Rebalan does to help people understand cannabis as medicine. It is the best information I have found for microdosing, a term I was not familiar with. Rebalan taught me how to incorporate low-dosing into my everyday life to alleviate stress. This is not about getting high, but about an alternative that doesn’t include unwanted side effects and really helps with stress-related moods. Low-dosing has made menopause bearable and I hardly notice mood swings! I wish I would have had this when I had PMS!
