It has also been found to have anti-seizure properties, helping to treat epilepsy and neuropsychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia. Hemp CBD oil is being used to help naturally relieve chronic pain and inflammation without the risk of addiction or severe side effects that pharmaceuticals tend to have.

CBD oil is proving to be a promising natural medicine that can be used synergistically with most conventional medicine. Here at Gesundheit we will focus on the medicinal values of hemp. Hemp is actively being grown in Chernobyl to clean up radioactive pollution.

Bioremediation is the use of living things to heal the soil. This is helpful for common problems such as erosion but also for more serious pollutants such as oil spills, heavy metals, and pesticides. Hemp is also being researched for its use in bioremediation. From health foods to biofuel and plastic composites to body care and clothing and even hempcrete homes! The uses are endless. It is an important product in industry, manufacturing and medicine. Hemp is an extremely versatile agricultural product. One of the land managers, Adam, has become a member of the West Virginia Farmer's Cooperative and has secured our permit to grow hemp through the West Virginia Department of Agriculture under the Researching and Marketing Cultivation of Industrial Hemp License. In order for the Gesundheit Institute land to become more sustainable and to help financially support our mission worldwide we have decided to grow hemp which will be processed into medical grade hemp-derived CBD oil. Gesundheit has been home to many beautiful and bountiful gardens over the past thirty years but none have been able to support the organization monetarily. We strive to grow enough produce to feed our volunteers and workshop participants throughout the year. We are also a working organic farm complete with chickens, goats and large vegetable gardens. On the land we host a variety of events ranging from medical humanism electives, health care system design intensives and health justice gatherings to volunteer programs, alternative spring breaks and wellness events. The Gesundheit Institute land is located in Hillsboro, West Virginia and is the future hospital site. Since then Gesundheit Institute has been able to expand their global outreach by forming Gesundheit Global Outreach (GGO) and its scope of care sponsoring clown missions (including healthcare, community development, and building projects) to more than 50 countries. Patch and members of the Gesundheit Institute have provided lectures, conferences and workshops for caregivers in medical and nursing schools, hospitals and businesses in over 65 countries and on five continents.
