Breakthrough CBD Book Launches, Addressing America's Health, Social, Political and Cultural Challenges

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 15, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Klee Irwin, health industry expert, business leader and Founder and Chairman of Irwin Naturals announced today the release of Pain Nation: Sick, Stressed, And All F*cked Up, Is CBD the Cure? The book introduces new research, insights and thinking about CBD, and explores the CBD revolution, closely examining the positive components and functions of the cannabis compound.

"America is experiencing a series of crises – from health issues such as exploding opioid use to social discord, political intolerance and a general state of anxiety and discontent," said Klee Irwin. "Pain Nation explores these issues, looks at root causes and solutions – and then digs deep into CBD. What I've discovered in researching and writing this book is a compound with the potential to address even the most complex and difficult challenges. This book explores how CBD is, in many instances, a game changer – or even a life-saver."

CBD has been increasingly at the forefront of the national discourse and news cycle, and yet many Americans are uneducated about what CBD is or does. Pain Nation provides deep insight into what CBD is, what it can do for individuals and communities and the potential transformative power of a compound still listed as an FDA schedule 1 drug.

Over the course of its 240 pages, Pain Nation examines the healing impact of CBD on various ailments and afflictions, highlighting evidence-based research of its success in treating cancer, epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, obesity, chronic pain, insomnia and women's health issues, among others. The book also highlights the importance of CBD as an untapped medical alternative to opiates and other drugs with high risk of harmful side effects, emphasizing the potential for CBD to create a healthier American population and revolutionize the United States' health care system altogether.

Pain Nation arrives in the public eye at a pivotal moment in legislative history. With the recent national legalization of cannabis in Canada and with now more than 30 States in the US with some form of legalization, and with the pending 2018 Farm Bill about to pass (which includes the Hemp Farming Act of 2018 which will legalize hemp), the entire industry is facing a restructure in the face of its economic potential, with CBD taking charge as the front runner of the international conversation. 

"This book arrives at a crucial time for a nation that's suffering. Klee Irwin has delivered an insightful and riveting look at the root causes behind America's health crisis, and, crucially, offers up a possible path back to our collective well-being."  Ashlee Vance, New York Times bestselling author and host of Hello World.

Pain Nation is available for purchase both in stores and online. For more information and to view a video trailer of the book, go to www.Pain-Nation.com.
