About Us
"I had epilepsy from an early age, suffering from nocturnal vacant episodes, complex partial and grand mal seizures. I spent a lot of time in hospitals as a child having EEGs (Electroencephalogram) and other tests to see how my brain was functioning whilst trying to understand what was happening to me. I was taking strong doses of pharmaceuticals for around eight years.
As a young teenager I was always wary of taking drugs, scared about the way they would react to me and the medication I was taking, so I steered clear until I found a plant called cannabis. I felt an immediate connection with the plant. Something just felt right. By the age of 16 I was no longer taking pharmaceuticals. I stopped having seizures and episodes and had a relatively normal life. I still have occasional sleep tremors depending on life factors such as stress, for example but it’s incomparable to what I had growing up as a child.
The reason I started HERBALORIGIN was because I wanted to be able to make cannabis-based products more accessible and to be able to educate and change perception. It shouldn’t be taboo."
