Should dogs eat 
Chicken Liver ?

One of the best meat sources that dogs can eat.
It’s lower in calories and higher in protein than other kinds of liver.
Chicken is nutritionally dense.
Good source of vitamin A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B9, B12, C , E, Coenzyme Q10, selenium and iron.
All B vitamins help the body to convert food (carbohydrates) into fuel (glucose), which is used to produce energy.
These B vitamins, often referred to as B-complex vitamins, also help the body metabolize fats and protein.

Chicken liver provides 11.62 mg of CoQ10 in every 100 g, making it one of the highest food sources of CoQ10.
The CoQ10 found in liver is twofold in important uses! It improves joint health, which is especially beneficial for large breeds and dogs who suffer from arthritis. 

Secondly, Coenzyme Q10 is good for heart health; increasing the “good cholesterol” in your dog’s body.

It also helps to lower blood pressure and protect muscle tissue in the heart during cardiac trauma. Fatty acids improve coat health and all those B vitamins help your dog fully reap the benefits of the fat and protein found in liver. Since it is so densely packed with iron, it’s also effective in treating anemic animals.
For dogs with frequent colds and diarrhoea, we can take advantage of the high vitamin A content in chicken liver,
to enhance the resistance of dogs and improve intestinal function.
Chicken liver is rich in protein, can help them absorb nutrients and strengthen their health.

Who’s saying what about CBD…

Harvard Medical School:

The evidence for cannabidiol health benefits. CBD has been touted for a wide variety of health issues, but the strongest scientific evidence is for its effectiveness in treating some childhood epilepsy syndromes. In numerous studies, CBD was able to reduce the number of seizures, and, in some cases, stop them altogether. Epidiolex, which contains CBD, is the first cannabis-derived medicine approved by the FDA for these conditions.

Animal studies, and self-reports or research in humans, suggest CBD may also help with:

Anxiety Studies and clinical trials are exploring the common report that CBD can reduce anxiety.

Insomnia. Studies suggest that CBD may help with both falling asleep and staying asleep.

Chronic pain. Further human studies are needed to substantiate claims that CBD helps control pain. One animal study from the European Journal of Pain suggests CBD could help lower pain and inflammation due to arthritis when applied to skin. Other research identifies how CBD may inhibit inflammatory and neuropathic pain, which are difficult treat.

Addiction. CBD can help lower cravings for tobacco and heroin under certain conditions, according to some research in humans.
