There is so much speculation, misconceptions, and even bad media coverage on something so great such as CBD Oil. The truth is, CBD oil is a wonderful oil that can help you with so many symptoms from physical, spirituality, and mentally. Helping people who have cancer, seizures, chronic pains, anxiety, eating disorders, thyroid problems, multiple sclerosis; the list goes on and on. Like any plant or medicine, there are many strands. Each of them helps you with a specific ailment. Despite rumors, CBD oil and CBD hemp oil are perfectly legal to use! Even though it comes from marijuana.
CBD may come from cannabis but it is actually a cannabidiol that is chemically and atomically different from the rest. It lacks the psychoactive of THC, meaning you cannot get high or have mood altering outcomes. When used over a period of time, you may be able to see changes in your body, your symptoms, and everyday life. Cannabinoids that are being introduced to your body attach themselves to certain proteins and receptors. Receptors such as CB1 and CB2 which deal with certain parts of the brain and immune system. Thus helping you feel better and not having any mind-altering side effects.
On the other hand, we have something called CBD Hemp Oil. Which has been catching a lot of popularity lately. Hemp also comes from marijuana and has so many properties. Not to mention all of the abundant qualities and ways it can be used for. Such as paper, building materials, apparel, houseware, beauty products, and most importantly, health! Hemp oil is a more processed form of oil which is a low THC plant and also a nonpsychoactive. CBD Hemp oil is made from hemp seeds and made into oil. Which can be used as food supplements such as a vegan version of Omega 3s, fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals. It, however, does not contain cannabinoids like CBD oil does.
The effects of CBD oil are endless and researchers are still uncovering the many benefits. However, it has been shown over and over again that CBD helps a lot of people. The oil can be taken by mouth, rubbed directly on the skin, used in vapor, vape pens, through an IV, or even in edibles. Mixed with other herbs and even coconut oil for a more potent product. It is always best to be careful when adding other herbs as some may be damaging if taking the wrong amount.
People with cancer have stated that taking the oil has helped with some of the symptoms accompanied by it. It is said to help cell regeneration and growth by suppressing the bad cancerous cells and helping them self-destruct. As well as encouraging new cells without any cancer to grow. It also has anti-tumor properties and can help to shrink down the tumor. The daily physical pain and side effects such as not eating or nausea accompanied by chemotherapy, and by cancer itself, can be lessened when using the oils.
Talking about pain, those with chronic pain can benefit a lot from CBD Oil and even creams made from it. CBD is a natural pain reliever and has anti-inflammatory properties. Since Cannabinoids attach themselves to CB2 receptors, it helps neuronal transmissions to inhibit anti-inflammatory properties. Even helping people who may be suffering from multiple sclerosis or fibromyalgia. It can also help with other symptoms that arise from having any type of muscle pains, premenstrual pains, arthritis, joint pains, backaches, and such.
Neurodegenerative symptoms from Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, strokes, and epilepsy can be lessened when using certain amounts of CBD oil. As stated before, the cannabinoids also attach themselves to CB1 receptors. Meaning that they can help with receptors that are found in the brain. Even though certain states have allowed epilepsy patients to take CBD oil as a treatment, studies are still being made. It is said to prevent epilepsy attacks as soon as you start feeling the first symptoms. CBD relaxes the muscles and helps the receptors to block more pain or undesired effects.
As far as other illnesses such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and strokes, the oil can help make the neurological symptoms less. By reducing inflammation and favoring CB1 receptors actions.
On the other hand, some pains might not be physical ones. But rather mental ones that need a lot of attention and healing. You guessed it! CBD can help with that too. It helps with anxiety, stress relieve, anti-psychotic episodes, sleep aid, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Since anxiety, psychotic episodes, and PTSD are mainly linked to specific receptors, CBD can help the way they react to certain chemicals and stimuli. Different types of dosages can help to control these symptoms as well as reducing stress, lowering the heart rate, hyperventilation, or other symptoms that may come from anxiety or even panic attacks. Linked to this is PTSD since the symptoms can also be improved by taking CBD. If sleeping is a problem, one can also smoke or take oils to help relax the mind and the body. With time the body will absorb the oil and you will be able to see significant changes.
It is no doubt that CBD can be used as a pain reliever, anti-inflammatory, anti-antispasmodic, antipsychotic, cell regenerator, and neuroprotective / immunity helper. Helping people fight their symptoms and making life easier for some. But, before you go out and buy the first product that claims to be pure CBD oil, do your research! Like any other product, not everything is created equal or with purity. You want to make sure you see the paperwork, studies, and know where the oil is really coming from. If a website or a shop gives you a bad gut feeling, listen to yourself. Some people may even use GMO’s on their plants or not use correct formulas to create a product. More importantly, always talk to a health practitioner, vendors, or start little by little seeing how much oil you are supposed to take. All of our bodies are different. Whatever helps someone else might not help you. Listen to your body.
The best and the purest CBD oil and CBD products will have a lot of information, show you where it comes from, how it is made and will have documentation like lab results to go along with it. Take your time getting to know the shop, the product, and asking questions. A good product will cost a fair amount if it is good. Facebook, Yelp, and business page reviews are your best friends! You will be able to see if the products are good, if they actually work, or if you should just skip the place in general. The prices can also range from low to very high depending on how big the product is (how many ounces or quantity), if it contains other herbs added to it (coconut oil, arnica, juniper, ginger, etc.), if you are in a state where THC is legal (some CBD products might have some THC added into it), and with high CBD strains. Try to remember that CBD oil and CBD Hemp oil are two different things with different properties. Hemp oil can be found at your local natural store. While CBD oil is found in smoke shops and online. Or if you go to a natural doctor that may have access to it easily.
Many companies try to prey on people and claim that their products cure it all. Please keep your eyes opened as some companies will sell you water and tell you it is CBD. Pure CBD Oil might be presented in a website as crystals which is rare. Other shops have CBD oil but the highest they might reach is 98% pure. The prices will be high since most likely the quality will be top notch. Chances are they might be shipped from outside the United States. In addition to oil, you can also buy products such as lip balms, hair shampoo, creams that help with any pains, vaping pens, and edibles. The same rules apply, do your research, and make sure the place is actually a real and legitimate business. Never send strange wire transfers or personal information.
CBD oil is a wonderful thing that can definitely help you feel better. If you feel as if nothing has helped you in the past, give it a try. Chances are that you will not regret it and that your life will change for the better. It is time to take care of yourself, it is time to enjoy life more, and give mother nature a shot! Nature gives us so much and takes care of us always. It is never wrong. This oil and other products might just be the very thing you need to help you live better. To help with the every day crazy lifestyle that we all lead which loaded with too much stress. This might just help your chronic pains, your joints to work better, your nausea to go away, or simply to give you a better night sleep. Give CBD a try!
