CBD is hyped as a miracle cure for everything, but where's the proof? Jessica Wynn breaks down the science vs. snake oil here on Skeptical Sunday!

Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we’re joined by Jessica Wynn!

Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1197

On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:

  • Cannabis-sourced cannabidiol (CBD) is widely marketed as a safe cure-all, but most claims — especially for chronic pain, anxiety, and sleep — lack solid scientific backing.
  • The CBD industry is poorly regulated — products may be mislabeled, contaminated, or contain THC, which can cause legal or workplace issues.
  • The only FDA-approved medical use of CBD is Epidiolex, a prescription drug for rare childhood epilepsy — not the casual oils, gummies, or lattes sold in stores.
  • Dosage, purity, and method of use all matter — yet most over-the-counter CBD products provide far lower doses than those shown effective in clinical trials.
  • If you choose to use CBD products, be an informed consumer — look for third-party lab certificates (COAs), consult your doctor if you take medications, and approach packaging claims with curiosity and skepticism.
  • Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube. If you have something you'd like us to tackle here on Skeptical Sunday, drop Jordan a line at [email protected] and let him know!
  • Connect with Jessica Wynn at Instagram and Threads, and subscribe to her newsletter: Between the Lines!
