CBD, women’s health and sharing her personal journey of natural healing are Suzy Ohannessian’s passions and mission. Suzy joins Max and Steven to talk about her experiences suffering from uterine fibroids which led to her discovery of CBD as an effective solution. Using CBD oil sublingually not only helped shrink her fibroids but also made some of them disappear (undetectable via ultrasound), much to the surprise of her doctors who were not exactly supportive of Suzy’s alternative approach. However, Suzy not only found relief, she found her voice as an advocate for women struggling with uterine fibroids and other health issues. Suzy, a lifelong dancer, also noticed that her consistent use of CBD alleviated the aches and pains that she had come to accept as “normal” wear and tear on her body.
