Is Cannabidiol Advisable For Epilepsy?

hello I have epilepsy and use CBD in conjunction with my prescribed medication. I used to have one or two seziures a month but since I ve been using CBD (7mths now) I have only had one. why are Drs reluctant to prescribe a natural medication when they know it will do a better job than manufactured drugs? Also I ve been wondering and researching about the medical effects that magic mushrooms (shrooms) would have on Epilepsy and this is ehy I am here asking you if any tests or research has been done on this area
