CBD Breakthrough: Trump, Hemp, Seniors' Health
The potential benefits of cannabidiol (CBD) are gaining renewed attention in the U.S., particularly for older adults and healthcare reform. CBD interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), which helps regulate sleep, stress, pain management, and overall wellness. Recently, former President Donald Trump highlighted CBD's potential during a Truth Social post that reshared a video by The Commonwealth Project, sparking a new wave of interest in CBD for seniors.
CBD and the Commonwealth Project's Mission
The Commonwealth Project, founded by Howard Kessler, is dedicated to integrating cannabis and CBD into the U.S. healthcare system, particularly for older adults. In the September 28, 2025 video, the group emphasized how CBD can "revolutionize senior healthcare" by supporting arthritis relief, Alzheimer's care, cancer symptom management, and stress reduction. According to the video, nearly 20% of seniors already use CBD in some form, but the lack of FDA regulation leaves product quality inconsistent. Advocates argue that educating doctors on the ECS and creating Medicare coverage for CBD would provide seniors with safer, more affordable healthcare options.
