Watchdogs are set to ban High Street CBD 'cannabis' oil for up to 18 months as experts probe whether it has any real health benefits
Watchdogs are moving to ban sales of the popular 'wellness' supplement CBD oil, which is derived from cannabis.
The number of people using the oil, which is sold legally on the High Street and online, is rising amid claims it helps with anxiety, insomnia, muscle and joint pain. However, a decision by British and European food watchdogs to classify cannabidiol oil as a 'novel food' means it now needs to go through an approval process. Britain's Food Standards Agency (FSA) has indicated it will ask local council trading standards officers to remove products from sale until this approval process is complete, which could take 12-18 months.
Under the new system, sellers would have to show that the oil, which can be taken in capsule form or by pipette, is safe and has the effect claimed.
