The Autism-CBD Connection: Expert Views with Justin Benton

Miracle Plant

From Desperation to Hope: A Family's Autism and CBD Success Story

In this inspiring episode of the Miracle Plant Podcast, Justin Benton joins Kristin Selby Gonzalez on the Autism Hope Library. Justin shared his personal journey with us, detailing how his son's autism diagnosis led him to discover the benefits of CBD, particularly in its raw, unheated form known as CBDA. He recounted the remarkable progress his son made after incorporating a whole-plant, full-spectrum CBD regimen, emphasizing the importance of using the entire cannabis plant to harness its full potential.

Justin educated us on the differences between CBD, hemp oil, and hemp seed oil, and the significance of cold-pressed extraction methods. He also addressed common concerns about CBD, such as the potential for psychoactive effects and drug testing implications, reassuring listeners that CBD from hemp does not cause a high and is unlikely to affect drug test results.

Throughout the episode, Justin stressed the importance of third-party testing and transparency in the CBD industry. He explained that consumers should look for products with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) to ensure they are free from pesticides like glyphosate and contain the full spectrum of cannabinoids.

As a testament to his commitment to helping families, Justin highlighted the generous discounts and free product trials offered by 101CBD to families dealing with autism. His passion for education and providing hope to others was evident as he spoke about the company's mission and partnership with the Autism Hope Alliance.

We wrapped up the episode with a heartfelt message from Justin, encouraging listeners to reach out for free consultations and to explore the potential of CBD as a natural and beneficial addition to their wellness routines. It was a truly enlightening conversation that left us with a deeper understanding of CBD and its life-changing impact on families like Justin's and mine.

"When my son was tested for heavy metals and for pesticides, when we were trying to get his body cleaned up, he tested 99 percentile, basically off the charts with glyphosate and Roundup is what it is, or the primary ingredient in Roundup." - 00:00:08

"Welcome to the Miracle Plant Podcast, the show that inspires, promotes, and gives you a daily dose of inspiration from the people who have used cannabis to change their lives in extraordinary ways." - 00:00:43

"We had a great thing going great life, you know, uh, the, the dogs and the white picket fence, and we had our second child and everything was going great. And then, uh, there was, uh, this, uh, a real sudden, um, loss of language, loss of communication and something was wrong." - 00:01:58

"We gave it to my son and he had an immediate reaction that calmed him down and he started to really awaken." - 00:04:25

"CBD stands for cannabidiol and cannabidiol can be found in over 25 fruits and vegetables, but it's also found in the cannabis or hemp plant as we refer to it here in the United States." - 00:05:26

"The names marijuana are names that our government gave the plant back in the 1930s to demonized the plant and they came out with a movie called the reefer madness because they wanted to make Marijuana, which is the name they gave it high THC cannabis." - 00:06:52

"So the good news is it's back. And the difference is really simple. Look, cannabis is cannabis. If you call it hemp, it means it has less than 0.3 THC industrial hemp." - 00:09:29

"So the best way to consume any plant is to eat it, not cook it, not process it, not isolate it, not take things out of it, not flavor it. It's just to eat the plant." - 00:09:43

"So again, since our products are such trace amounts, it's unlikely that you would come up with some type of, uh, drug screen or things like that, but it's certainly, it's possible." - 00:16:17

"So if you're not taking it for at least two or three weeks, then you're not even really giving it a fair shot consistently every day." - 00:22:38
