Anyone have luck with CBD oil to help dementia folks relax, sleep? Any brand recommendations that can be added to a drink to consume?

I personally tired CBD for arthritis. I got gas. That was about it, so my anecdotal story for this week. I was told by all "true believers" that they vary widely. Some work better than others, and of course all believers believe that their own works best. There can, for those who know they are taking something "to help" also the placebo effect which I recently heard a doctor say is the best and surest affect from almost any medication whether real medication or jelly bean.
I consulted to try to get the best (which may translate to most expensive as the stuff surely is expensive). As I said, basically I got gas. I thought "Well, THIS can't be a side effect" but when I looked it up it surely was one.
I have heard people on Forum say that CBD oil DID help their elder, some with arthritis, some for sleep and many for anxiety. I would say, if you can get it cleared past the MD it is "worth a try". Wishing you good luck with it.
