Miami, FL \u2013 June 27, 2023 <\/strong>\u2013 The nonprofit Global Wellness Institute<\/a>\u2122 (GWI), the leading research and educational resource for the global wellness industry, reminds wellness seekers that there is evidence-based medical research available on most mainstream wellness modalities \u2013 whether that evidence is good, bad or inconclusive.<\/p>\n

\u201cWellnessEvidence.com<\/a> provides direct access to the universe of clinical studies for common wellness modalities\u2013at the databases that doctors use\u2013to help consumers, medical professionals, the wellness industry, and the media dive into the actual evidence (or lack thereof) for that approach,\u201d said Susie Ellis, chair and CEO of the GWI.<\/p>\n

\u201cCBD, a non-psychoactive part of the cannabis sativa plant, has recently soared in popularity and has seen a lot of marketing hype as a cure-all. While studies are increasing, unlike the overwhelmingly positive evidence for approaches such as exercise or healthy sleep, the evidence around CBD can be complex and confusing,\u201d continued Ellis. \u201cThere are too many small trials with conflicting results as well as trials and metareviews that too often include THC\/CBD compounds rather than studying just pure CBD. WellnessEvidence.com is a \u2018spin-free\u2019 research zone where you can research studies for CBD, whether positive or negative. Because more knowledge always means more empowerment.\u201d<\/p>\n

WellnessEvidence.com<\/a>\u00a0provides free and easy access to the studies on wellness approaches at the world\u2019s most authoritative sources of evidence-based medicine, including the Cochrane Library, PubMed and the TRIP Database\u2013in just a click or two you can explore dozens, sometimes hundreds or thousands, of studies. The site also provides summaries of representative studies, as well as the current clinical trials underway for that wellness approach.<\/p>\n

The new platform for CBD lets people research some key questions:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
