She's accused of four murders. She's only guilty of three...When Ruby was a child growing up in Miami, she saw a boy from her school struggling against the ocean waves while his parents were preoccupied. Instead of helping him, Ruby dove under the water and held his ankle down until he drowned. She waited to feel guilty for it, but she never did. And, as Ruby will argue in her senior thesis while studying psychology at Yale, guilt is sort of like eating ice cream while on a diet - if you're already feeling bad, why not eat the whole carton? And so, the bodies start to stack up. Twenty-five years later, Ruby's in an interrogation room under suspicion of murder, being shown four photographs. Each is a person she once knew, now deceased.

CBD Oil for Asthma: Effective Remedy for Chronic Respiratory Disorder , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 41min
CBD (cannabidiol) is a compound found in the cannabis plant. It can be used in several different ways, including vaping, tinctures, capsules, and edibles. Unlike its close relative, THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD is completely nonpsychoactive. This allows us to benefit from the many health properties of the cannabis plant without the negative side effects of “getting high”.Because of this, CBD became a very popular option for those seeking a natural alternative to treat conditions such as chronic pain, multiple sclerosis, PTSD, epilepsy, and other mental disorders. At first, many were skeptical, thinking that a natural compound - let alone a cannabis compound - could effectively treat such a wide range of conditions. But as medical researchers learned more and the stories from tens of thousands of people began to stack up, the truth was undeniable. CBD works.For starters, CBD inherits many of the medicinal properties of cannabis, such as being anti-inflammatory and anti-anxiolytic. This allows it to provide natural stress, anxiety, and pain relief. But this alone is not what allows CBD to benefit so many conditions. What allows it to effectively treat so many conditions, and maintain health and wellness in the body, is how the cannabinoids found in CBD interact with receptors throughout our body.In 1988, the first cannabinoid receptor was discovered in the brain of a rat. Researchers found that these receptors reacted specifically to THC and were found primarily found in regions of the brain responsible for mental and physiological processes, such as memory, high cognition, emotion, and motor coordination.Few years later, in 1993, the second cannabinoid receptor was found as part of the immune and central nervous systems. It was then that researchers started to realize that they may have been onto something. But these receptors were only found in rodents, so what is the big deal, right?Fast forward to 1995.
