The Door County Department of Public Health says you should be careful about how you use CBD. Hemp-derived cannabidiol (CBD) is becoming very popular in Wisconsin for its proclaimed wellness benefits. The state legalized hemp farming in late 2017. Susan Powers is the head of the Door County Department of Public Health and she says studies are unclear on how much CBD can actually help you. Powers is also worried that it is not regulated at all.

Powers says the Department of Public Health is not a regulatory part of the government and does not want to dissuade people from using CBD. If CBD were to start making people sick or cause any issues, then the department would step in.
