Unfortunate as CBD is clinically proven to relieve epileptic seizures and related out breaks. CBD and CBN are essentially the same –
sigh
If anyone’s wondering — CBN is still legal until June 1, but companies here are already shifting pretty quickly.
I’ve personally had the best experience with [KUSH JP](https://kush-jp.com/ref/5/) so far in terms of consistency/quality. They sell CBN and other legal cannabinoid products and will likely be one of the first to pivot so they’re the one to watch if you’re interested in this stuff.
You can also follow the r/AltnoidsJapan sub to keep in the loop (or chat with likeminded folks).
Just returned from my holiday in Japan.
Used a service that would send joints, vapes and oils to your accommodation.
Bummer that they will have th change all their products as everyone had some % of CBN in them.

Hi thank you for posting the update. I am so disappointed.
I only take CBN cookies and smoke CBN joints occasionally. So for someone like me, other than CBV (as mentioned in your article), what are other legal alternatives you would recommend especially as edibles / cookies.
Thank you.
I was concerned they were banning the Christian Broadcasting Network.
