As an occupational health physician, I frequently encounter patients who find themselves unable to fully function at work or in their daily lives, whether due to physical or mental challenges. These symptoms are often complex and multidimensional, extending beyond a purely biological pathology. Consequently, the way symptoms manifest can vary widely, even among individuals with the same underlying condition, and can differ significantly from person to person. This variability highlights the intricate interplay of physical, psychological, and social factors in each individual's experience. Though it may sound cliché, it has become increasingly evident that the modern healthcare system predominantly emphasizes disease management and treatment, while the importance of a healthy lifestyle as the foundation of good physical and mental health and prevention is often overlooked. While I firmly believe that we cannot do without the advances of modern medicine, I find it intriguing that many of my patients continue to explore alternative approaches to their health. One trend that caught my attention was the growing popularity of CBD. This sparked my interest and led me to delve deeper into its potential benefits. It also reminded me that there is still so much to learn—and in some cases, re-discover—about the potential of natural plant-based benefits.
